✨Breastmilk Teething Pop✨If I had a dollar for every night I lost sleep due to a teething baby... Teething is the pits! It’s hard for the little ones and it’s hard for parents to deal with!

I had very early teethers. My daughter started around 3-4 months and got her first teeth at 5 months. My son was only slightly later. One of the things I LOVED to give them at that age were these breastmilk popsicles. I used the Nuby popsicle moulds that hold 1oz in each section. Perfect for little hands to keep them busy during the day when they are fussy.

If you don’t have this tray, you could pour breastmilk into sections of an ice cube tray and put popsicle sticks in the middle.

This was a huge win for us because the cold helped with the inflammation and they were getting a little snack in too!

NOTE: I’m not sure if this would work with formula, but if you try it, let me know!

✨Best Foods for Pregnancy✨I’ll highlight some benefits of each!

▪️Bone Broth—high in collagen, rich in minerals and amino acids, such a glycine. Glycine demands increase significantly during pregnancy and help the uterus grow

▪️Eggs—great source of protein; contain all fat-soluble vitamins (A,D,E,K); contain choline which is required for fetal brain development

▪️Nuts—healthy fats, protein and fibre; a great quick, calorie dense snack to eat on-the-go

▪️Leafy greens—source of folate, calcium, antioxidants and fibre

▪️Sweet Potato—great source of vitamin A and C, as well as fibre, copper and potassium

▪️Blueberries—powerful antioxidant; great source of fibre

▪️Sauerkraut—probiotic-rich food to help maintain a health gut flora

▪️Salmon—contains omega-3 fatty acids that help with fetal development, stabilizing hormones and cognitive health

▪️Avocado—amazing course of monounsaturated fatty acids, folate, fibre, potassium and more!

✨There are so many more incredible foods to consume during pregnancy. These are just a few of my favourites! Tag a pregnant Mama and save this post for the future!🤰

🎁Holiday Shopping Guide — PART 1 of 2. Swipe 👉🏼to see half of the list of businesses I curated based on YOUR suggestions! Thank you to everyone who contributed to this list from my IG stories earlier this week.

This year has been hard in a countless ways. I encourage you to try to support the small, local businesses who got hit the hardest when you’re making holiday purchases. I can only tag 20 businesses per post, so I created 2 separate posts. If you’re not in the GTA, explore the small businesses that are local to you.

Stay tuned for Part 2️⃣ tomorrow morning. Share this list with your friends and family!

✨Family Snack✨My kids are usually more inclined to eat veggies when they see me eating them too. On the weekends, I try to put out platters for all of us to share together. Having something to dip veggies in is always fun and engaging, too (even if I did have to clean guacamole off the couch after this 😂).

Do you ever make platters or sharing plates for your family? Are you into them?

Exercise isn’t a punishment for what you ate. Exercise is more than calories in, calories out. Exercise isn’t always about losing weight. Exercise benefits your body in countless ways. There isn’t one way to exercise. Moving your body in a way that feels good to you, is the right kind of exercise. For me, playing sports is my favourite way to move my body.
What is your favourite form of movement?

✨2 minute power breakfast✨Greek yogurt with berries, pumpkin seeds and chia seeds. I eat this breakfast a few times a week because: 1️⃣it’s loaded with the goodness my body needs like protein, fibre, fat, antioxidants and minerals 2️⃣it only takes 2 minutes to throw these ingredients into a bowl 3️⃣it tastes delicious😛Sometimes I add a drizzle of maple syrup or honey. I often give the kids the variation of this bowl for breakfast and they love it too!
What’s your go-to quick and nutritious breakfast?👇🏼👇🏼

✨Choline and Pregnancy✨ Eggs are a great source of choline. One large egg contains about 160mg of choline which is around a third-a quarter of the recommended intake during pregnancy. Choline supports placenta function, fetal brain development and cognition, and more.
Other great food sources of choline include: chicken, salmon, beef, navy beans, shrimp, green peas and broccoli. Be sure to eat the yolk of the egg — that’s where most of the nutrients are concentrated, including choline.
I topped these eggs with jalapeño, green onion and fresh dill🥚Did you eat eggs during your pregnancy? Tag a pregnant mama!
