At the beginning of January I was contacted by Tash saying "We are due with our first baby on the 29th Jan. We live in Hervey Bay and I was wondering if you would be willing to travel up here for our newborn shoot? If it's too far I understand I just loved looking through your work"..
and I was all like.. heck yeah I will travel.. how exciting and what an honour!

The session was scheduled for Sunday morning so first thing Saturday I set off, car pack to the brim with the necessities.. you know.. my work gear, the husby and my 3 kiddos haha
We made a family weekend away out of it and had the best time! 

Come Sunday morning, the husby and kiddo's dropped me off to the Keck's house and headed for the waterpark..

Finally I got to meet and snuggle baby B....!!!! Talk about utter perfection.. as you can see..!! 
I had such an awesome morning chatting with and watching this beautiful little family bond! 
​
Most people complain about work.. but my job is focused around new life, love filled connections and happiness.. so for me, going to work is the most amazing experience each and every time! 
I am so grateful to be able to call this passion of mine a career! 

Enjoy meeting little Bodhi boy..  

​As a mum of three I have literally experienced most, if not all of these with my babes but I also hear or see this so regularly with my clients & friends kiddos too! I know how stressful it can be for us parents and more so for our little babes BUT I have personally found a way to make it all better.. and her name is Dr Louise Christophersen and she is my amazing Chiropractor and friend!

Louise has been my first go to for any health or body problems for the past 7 years.. I first saw Louise when I was pregnant and on bed rest (from 18 weeks along 🙄) with my third. Doctors and my then physio had said that I may never walk properly again because pregnancy related pelvic problems and after months of seeing them and still feeling like a bag of poo I went in search of something that might take even 5% of my pain away..this is when I found Louise.. 🙌
After one adjustment.. JUST ONE.. I was walking properly and pain free. So she became my go to {fix it lady} for the rest of my pregnancy haha

When Bell was born she would only sleep on her belly or in our arms. With two other kids to look after this was really testing but after 2 weeks of struggling I booked into Louise for myself and spilled my guts about how hard things had been. She told me that she can't guarantee anything but 'may' be able to help Bella sleep if I wanted to give it a go.. um.. HECK YES!!! After ONE super gentle adjustment { or "back rub" as my kids call them} Bella was sleeping on her back..<3 As it turns out her labour had just moved her little body out of alignment and when she was placed on her back it was triggering nerves.. it does makes sense to me.. I mean, it's not like labour is all that 'gentle..' on mum or bub.. 
So we continued seeing Louise for me and bub and would you believe it.. at 6 weeks of age she started sleeping through.. from 10pm-5am!!!

So when this happened and I had a newbie sleeping through.. I thought Id ask about my older daughter Meisha's sleeping issues.. she was 4.5yrs old and still woke up once a night with night terrors. Louise checked her out and what do you know.. she was so, completely out.. in her neck, back and hips... no wonder my little monkey was struggling to relax. After her adjustment.. she SLEPT through the night.. I was like hallelujah!!!!!!!! Louise.. you are some kind of wonderful!

I cannot rave about this woman enough.. she is totally humble about it but honestly..she is THE BEST! She is gentle, easy to talk to, down to earth, talks you and your kids right through it all and believe it or not, her adjustments are affordable!

I have worked with newborns who couldn't breastfeed on one side, some that wouldn't sleep on their back, I have had friends with kids that had bowel problems and some that had kids still wetting the bed at 8yrs old. After referring them to see Louise and hearing that she has helped all their kiddies too I just thought it was about bloody time that I shared my stories with EVERYONE..

So from this mumma to you.. if you are having any of these issues and need help, please get in touch with Louise.. She will change your life.. just like she has changed mine!
