COCCYDYNIA (Tailbone Pain in pre or post partum)
One of the most common conditions we treat in clinic for pregnancy patients is called coccydynia. This usually consists of severe debilitating Pain in the tailbone which prevents a woman from sitting, standing or walking without experiencing severe discomfort and pain.
Many patients don’t understand why it occurs as it is difficult to explain the anatomy and structures within the body to a lay person who may have nil knowledg...e in this field.
This is a fantastic and simple video on which structures in the body are affected and why it is so common in women.

Tongue Tie release in babies
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=bm3xGBCC71o

TONGUE-TIE in babies
A tongue-tie is when the piece of skin under the baby’s tongue (called the frenulum) is tight, or shorter than normal. It is also called Ankyloglossia.
Some of the Signs and symptoms of a tongue-tie can include:... -A thin or thick piece of skin that can be seen under their tongue -Not being able to poke their tongue out past their lips when their mouth is open -Not being able to lift their tongue up towards the roof of their mouth -Having trouble moving their tongue side to side -A ‘V shape’ or ‘heart shape’ tongue tip -A flattened or square tongue tip
SOME SIGNS WHICH INDICATE A POSSIBLE TONGUE TIE
When breastfeeding you may notice your baby:
Comes on and off the breast Makes a clicking sound when sucking Gets tired quickly during feeds Has little or no weight gain If you are a breastfeeding mother you may notice:
Nipple pain while breastfeeding The nipple looks pinched or creased when your baby comes off the breast Low milk supply Blocked ducts or mastitis If you are bottle feeding you may notice your baby:
Swallows a lot of air Gets tired quickly during feeds Has dribbling and leaking milk from around their mouth. It is also important to remember that many babies with tongue-tie breastfeed well. Most breastfeeding problems are not caused by a tongue-tie!!!!
It is important to have the guidance of a health provider specialising in this field to help you pinpoint the exact cause of your babies feeding difficulty.
If you feel a tongue-tie is affecting your baby’s feeding seek advice and breastfeeding support with your treating provider or lactation consultant as soon as possible.

What is colostrum in breast milk?
From about the 16th week of pregnancy, a mother’s breasts begin to make colostrum. The first fluid released by mothers breast after delivery is colostrum, which is distinct in volume, appearance and composition. Colostrum, produced in low quantities in the first few days postpartum, is rich in immunologic components such as secretory IgA, lactoferrin, leukocytes, as well as developmental factors such as epidermal growth factor.
Colostrum also... contains relatively low concentrations of lactose, indicating its primary functions to be immunologic and trophic rather than nutritional. Levels of sodium, chloride and magnesium are higher and levels of potassium and calcium are lower in colostrum than later milk.
As the tight junction closure occurs in the mammary epithelium, the sodium to potassium ratio declines and lactose concentration increases, indicating secretory activation and the production of transitional milk. The timing of secretory activation (lactogenesis stage II) varies among women, but typically occurs over the first few days postpartum.
Delayed onset of lactogenesis is defined as onset >72 hours after delivery and appears to occur more often with preterm delivery and maternal obesity, and may be predicted by markers of metabolic health. Biochemical markers in early milk for onset of secretory activation include its sodium content, the sodium to potassium ratio, citrate, and lactose.
In summary, colostrum has numerous benefits, some of which are below: • contains antibodies which protect your baby from infection and help their immune system to develop. • helps your baby’s digestive system to develop, which protects your baby from allergies. • encourages your baby to open their bowels and pass ‘meconium’ (your baby’s first black sticky poo) which reduces the risk of jaundice.

DIASTASIS RECTI This short video exercise routine is a great place to promote your recovery!
Diastasis recti is a separation of the outer rectus abdominis or ‘6 pack’ muscles where they join in the mid line of the abdomen.
... Unfortunately many women return to inappropriate abdominal exercises with a diastais. This can prevent or delay recovery and contribute to a range of associated problems.
For further help please see a qualified health professional.

LACTOSE OVERLOAD Symptoms of lactose overload are commonly misdiagnosed as Colic or Reflux. There could be a simple solution in settling many bubs just by recognising Incorrect feeding techniques.
What is lactose? Lactose is the sugar (carbohydrate) found in milk and milk products. It is present in the milk of all mammals but is not found anywhere else in nature. Breast milk contains around 7 percent lactose. Most cows’ and goats’ milk based infant formulas contain a simi...lar percentage of lactose as breast milk. Soy based infant formulas and most ‘hypoallergenic’ infant formulas have no lactose. Lactose is a disaccharide, which means it's a combination of 2 sugars joined together. As a disaccharide it is too large to be absorbed by the body, so it needs to be broken down into glucose and galactose, which are monosaccarides, by the digestive enzyme 'lactase'. Glucose and galactose can then be absorbed into the blood stream and used by the body. What is lactose overload? Lactose overload is a ‘dose-related’ digestive problem. Symptoms occur when baby’s digestive tract becomes overloaded with lactose as a result of overfeeding in the case of bottle-fed babies and oversupply syndrome in the case of breastfed babies. The medical term for lactose overload is ‘functional lactase insuffiency’. This definition implies that some newborn babies do not produce sufficient quantities of the digestive enzyme, lactase, to breakdown all of the lactose consumed. Most healthy babies can tolerate the amount of lactose within normal volumes of milk, and thus they’re not technically lactose intolerant. However, the symptoms linked to lactose overload occur when a baby cannot adequately digest large amounts of lactose received as a result of an excessive consumption of milk. So they display GI symptoms that make them appear like they’re suffering from a digestive disorder. Lactose overload is not a disorder. Symptoms can be signifcantly reduced or completely relieved in as little as 24 hours once appropriate feeding management strategies applied. If you feel you are struggling with your precious Bub you may simply need some guidance and advice which will be uniquely tailored to suit your needs and your babies needs upon extensive medical history and examination. Each woman and their newborn child’s nursing needs are unique.
