I saw this and I thought of you - all of you. • We talk about this all the time in our baby massage classes. 1. Babies need you to be close to them so don’t ever feel guilty for keeping them so. 2. All babies are different. @mrsmombastic says it pretty well ⬇️ • #attachmentparenting #skintoskin #cosleeping #cosleepingmama #babymassage #infantmassage #iaim #iaimcimi #newbaby #newborn #newmum #newparent #newdad #mumguilt #nurturingtouch #nurturingmums #gentleparenting #gentleparentinguk #midlothian #midlothianmums • #Repost @mrsmombastic with @make_repost ・・・ My husband hates horror movies. I love them. My husband doesn’t even particularly like walking. I hardly eat meat. My husband is a carnivore. My husband likes to go to bed late and he suffers terribly with insomnia... I like to go to bed early and I (mostly) find it easy to fall asleep (and I was NEVER sleep trained *collective gasp*). My firstborn is a very fussy eater. My secondborn will eat anything put in front of her. My firstborn would always go down to sleep in a cot at night from the moment he was born. My second would only ever sleep on my chest for the first 15 months of her life. Your friend’s baby isn’t good for sleeping through the night. Your baby isn’t bad for not sleeping through the night. Your baby isn’t manipulating you by wanting to be close to you. Babies NEED that closeness. And some NEED it more than others. Adults are all so vastly different across all walks of life.... So why should our babies be any different? And WHY would we even entertain the idea that the same wouldn’t apply for sleep patterns???? But most importantly, you did not get unlucky for having a baby who wakes frequently. Babies waking at night hold a far more complex purpose than society’s skewed belief that it is only to inconvenience a mother. It’s biologically NORMAL for them to want to be close to you. And it really needn’t be more complicated than that. #babies #baby #mumslife #holdthosebabies #notspoiling #newmums #trustyourgut #arenawaterinstinct

Throwback Thursday to when my eldest daughter was Miss April in the NHS Lothian Infant Feeding Calendar 🗓 • Her photo was taking when she was 9 months old and here she is at 19 months studying her picture. Her new baby sister had arrived 5 weeks before this photo was taken and I remember how adamant she was that the baby in the calendar wasn’t her but her new sister! • They are now age 4.5 and 3 - time flies! • #throwbackthursday #tbt #mybaby #calendargirl #infantfeeding #weaning #normalisebreastfeeding #mummyofthree #mummyofgirls #mumofboth #scottishmum #midlothian #childhoodunplugged #letthembelittle #growingupwithsiblings #growingupfast #itsjustaphase #proudmoment @nhs_lothian @nhshealthscotland

I might be slightly bias, but Midlothian Ladies Club @hellomilc networking events are just the best! ✅ inspirational guest speaker @whisky_frames Kristen ✅ fantastic array of businesses represented ✅ amazing women to chat to about business and everything else ✅ a few connections made and collaborations in the pipeline ✅ gorgeous venue @restorationyard • #Repost @hellomilc with @make_repost ・・・ Thank you so much to everyone for supporting our business event this morning. Wasn’t Kristen from @whisky_frames just so inspiring? It was so lovely to meet so many talented business women from such a range of businesses. • We are already looking forward to our next business event in June (watch this space for more info) and, of course, High Tea and Happiness on 8th May. • #midlothian #midlothianbusiness #midlothianladies #shopsmall #shoplocal #supportindependents #womensupportwomen #womeninspiringwomen #midlothianladiesclub #milcevents

One more day left of holidays and then it’s back to work on Tuesday - my youngest kindly helped me write my to-do list this morning! • It’s a busy week ahead with my new baby massage courses starting on Tuesday at the @glencorse.centre and on Thursday at the @gorebridgebeacon. • Also on Tuesday, i’m very excited to be hosting our second Midlothian Ladies Club @hellomilc business networking event. I can’t wait because our guest speaker is the inspirational Kristen @whisky_frames and it’ll also be a great opportunity to have a proper look at the new spaces at the @restorationyard. • Of course, there always an @theopenuniversity deadline lurking there somewhere and this week there’s the added excitement of the results from my first online exam coming back to me. • So do I crack on with that list now? Maybe later cos hubby has just walked through the door with a @dominos and there are about 47 million chocolate goodies we really need to save our children from! • Happy Easter! • #happyeaster #eastersunday #eastereggs #chocolate #chocolatetreats #todolist #sundaynight #backtowork #businessnetworking #businesswomen #womensupportwomen #womeninspiringwomen #smallbusinessowner #supportlocalbusiness #shoplocal #shopsmall #bestjobever #midlothianladiesclub #midlothianladies #midlothian #midlothianmums #babymassage #infantmassage #iaim #oustudent #busymum #jugglingmumandcareer #mummyofthree #mumofthree #mumofboth

Earlier tonight I posted this picture (the bottom one) of two babies having a wee chat during our baby massage class today in Midlothian, Scotland. Almost at the exact same moment, my IAIM @infant_massage colleague on the other side of the world, in California, posted an almost identical picture (the top one!)! • A few things that I love about being part of this amazing international organisation that have been highlighted by this coincidence are... 💕 the amazing, invaluable connections made across the globe. @sarahs_la and I follow each other’s stories and quite often exchange messages, sharing ideas about our infant massage classes and supporting each other. We’ve never met! 💕 even although we are on two very different continents, we are both delivering the very same IAIM course and clearly have the same values and ethos when delivering our courses to our respective families. 💕 the IAIM truly is the gold standard for infant massage and I’m so proud to be part of it. I’m really privileged to have the support of fellow cimis around the world, like Sarah in Los Angeles. • #infantmassageinstructor #iaim #infantmassage #babymassage #international #internationalbabies #worldwide #infantmassageclasses #scottishmum #americanmom #happybaby #calmbaby #nurturingtouch #bestjobever @vimalamcclure
