• DUMMY OR THUMB? • If you’ve had a babe that is a sucker of some sort, has it been dummy, thumb or fingers? Byron had a dummy from about day three until 2.5 years. With Bronte we forced it on her a bit when she was 3/4weeks old (and I thought she was broken 😂) and has never really taken to it well. This week I’ve bitten the bullet and trying some sleep boot camp in order to get some better nights. This has meant trying life without a dummy. In turn she’s found her thumb! Not having had a thumb sucker before I’m a bit worried this (if it becomes a habit), could be harder to break than the dummy. So, any Mums out there that have had a babe with either of these, especially thumb or finger sucking - how did it go as they got older? #everybabeisdifferent #postpartum #babygirl #fourmonths #motherdaughter #postnatal #karratha #balancefitnessnutrition #striveforbalance #perthfitness #perthmums #pilbara #perthfitlife #mumpreneur #fitperthlife #sydneymums #perthpr #perthmamas #mumlife #motherhood #happyhealthypregnancy #lmbdwperth #businesschicks #babypacifier #dummychains #teething #wonderweeks #sleepregression #newbornshoot
• HERE’S A NEW ONE! • If you’re tired of the same old smoothie here’s one to change things up. Given that it’s summer too it’s great to use some 🍌 🥭 seasonal fruits. This is great as a post workout 👟 snack due to its macronutrient profile; simple carbs (banana & mango) which are more rapidly absorbed and used to replenish muscle 💪🏻 glycogen stores and aid in recovery + the all important protein, again to aid recovery and protein synthesis. If you use it as a post workout snack I’d hold up on the peanut butter 🥜 to keep the fat profile low (higher carbs, lower fat is best around pre/post training). Otherwise if it’s breaky, lunch, dinner or a snack go hard on the nut butter! Here’s what you need: •1 scoop @trueprotein - I like vanilla. •1-2 cheeks mango flesh •1 small banana •1-2 tbsp peanut butter •250ml liquid of choice - water / coconut milk / coconut water. Then simply: •Blend away baby! For veggies sake I would also add a handful of spinach. But for aesthetics sake, I didn’t 😂. Tag me if you whip this smoothie up during week! #smoothie #smoothies #balancefitnessnutrition #striveforbalance #perthnutritionist #smoothiebowl #vegan #inthekitchen #karratha #healthyrecipes #foodforfuel #nutritionist #cleaneats #lmbdwperth #perthpr #perthlifestyle #filex2019 #trueprotein #thenaturaledge #trueathlete #businesschicks #mumsinbusiness #trueprotein #healthpr #mumswhohustle #girlboss #perthmums #perthmama #aussiemums @trueprotein

• MATCHING • No, no outfits. Rolls. Mine just aren’t as cute as hers. This tummy will never be the same again after having two babes, but this is me embracing it as best I can. #keepingitreal. To me it’s not about how I look. If I feel fit, strong and healthy then I’m happy. I’m not doing great on any of those elements at the moment, but I’ll get there. In the mean time, smile like you mean it and fake it til you make it. #selflove #embrace #postpartum #babygirl #fourmonths #motherdaughter #rollsfordays #postnatal #selfbelief #selfconfidence #fakeittilyoumakeit #bikinibod #fitmum #karratha #spreadthefeelgood #balancefitnessnutrition #striveforbalance #perthfitness #perthmum #pilbara #perthfitlife #mumpreneur #fitperthlife #sydneymums #perthpr #perthmamas #mumlife #motherhood #happyhealthypregnancy @wearefeelgoodinc @franklymydearstore @fellaswim @trueprotein @recycledmats @huggiesau @otiseyewear
