• MORNING TONICS • I love me some lemon water. Hot or cold I’ll have either and find it helps me when I’m feeling sluggish and to get things moving. I suggest to most clients to try and form the habit of incorporating a morning tonic into their daily routine. They are great to help start the day and break down food more effectively, therefore increasing nutrient absorption. You could try the following, most days 15-30 minutes before breakfast: • 1-2tbsp Apple Cider vinegar – straight or with warm water. • Half of a freshly squeezed lemon – straight, with warm or cool water. • 1⁄2 cup Kombucha. My personal fave is lemon water with some added zinc drops at the moment. Do you morning tonic? #morningtonic #digestion #absorption #lemonwater #ACV #kombucha #nutritionist #pregnancynutrition
• ADVENTURE BUDDIES • @philjt and I are soaking up every last adventure with this little guy before we become a family of four. Never a dull moment, first beach fish today for the little guy. He wanted to catch a squid but settled for some little fishies instead. This #Pilbara sun is getting some heat to it again too! Who’s your favourite adventure buddy? #adventure #adventurebuddies #makingmemories #35weeks #family #beachfishing #karratha
• THE LAST TIME! • This will be the last post about this I promise! Voting closes at 12pm AEST tonight for the People’s Choice Awards for the 2018 Ausmumpreneur Awards. Unfortunately because I will be 37 weeks and unable fly to Melbourne to attend the event, it means that I am now no longer in the running to be considered for the Health and Wellbeing Awards 😔... BUT I still have a chance in the People’s Choice Awards - Influencer Category. Please head to the link in my bio and take two minutes to vote for me, get you Mum, boyfriend, husband, Dad, best friend etc to do the same! Thanks so much for your support, this is the last you’ll hear of this now! 😂 #ausmum18 #ausmumpreneur #peopleschoice #influencer #support #grateful #thankyou
• ASSUMPTIONS • Don’t trust in what you assume. Only in what you know. #assumptions #thewaywethink #whatweknow #striveforbalance #balancefitnessnutrition
• SAME BUT DIFFERENT • Here’s a little (big) bump comparison from my first pregnancy (left) to my second pregnancy (right), both at 35 weeks. I haven’t done much bump reflection (I prefer that than comparison) but as I get to the business end of my pregnancy I’ve been interested to bring out the old bump pics. Both pregnancies have been very similar, if anything this time around has maybe felt I little easier yet I feel I haven’t given myself as much nourishment and care as I did first time around. I also felt smaller this time but bump next to bump now makes me question that 😂 We don’t know what we’re having this time either which is keeping us guessing! Did you carry much differently second time around? Not long now! #bumpie #bumpwatch #35weeks #pregnancy
