Your prenatal appointment should be about more than just getting adjusted. đŸ€

Don’t get me wrong


Adjustments are an important part of the care I provide.

But they’re only one piece of the puzzle.

Every time a pregnant woman walks into my office, I’m trying to understand her pregnancy.

How is she moving?

What movements are uncomfortable?

Where is she feeling pressure?

How has her body changed over the last few weeks?

How is baby positioned?

What is her body telling me today?

Because those answers help guide the care she receives.

Some days that means an adjustment.

Some days that means soft tissue work.

Some days it means movement, exercises, or simply helping her understand what’s happening in her body.

No two pregnancies are the same.

So I don’t believe every appointment should be either.

đŸ€ My goal is to meet your body where it is that day and support you through each stage of pregnancy.

đŸ‘‡đŸŒ What’s one thing you wish someone would have explained better during your pregnancy?

Just making sure you know

There’s a difference between feeling pregnant and suffering through your pregnancy.

Pregnancy changes your body.

You’re growing a human.

Of course you’re going to feel different.

But somewhere along the way, we’ve started believing that if you’re pregnant, you’re just supposed to hurt.

That pelvic pain, back pain, hip pain, and feeling miserable are just part of the deal.

And I don’t want women accepting that as the expectation.

Now, am I saying every ache and pain can disappear?

No.

Pregnancy is still pregnancy.

But there’s a difference between your body adapting to pregnancy
 and your body struggling through it.

Too many women are told to “just hang in there” until the baby comes.

Instead, I want you asking,

“Is there something we can do to help me move better, feel better, and prepare for birth?”

Because you deserve more than simply surviving the next nine months.

My goal isn’t to help you stop feeling pregnant.

It’s to help you stop suffering through it. đŸ€

đŸ‘‡đŸŒ What’s one thing you’ve experienced in pregnancy that someone brushed off as “just part of being pregnant?”

Okay mamas, now I need an update. đŸ„č

Especially the ones I haven’t seen in a while
 how are you?! How old are those sweet babies now?!

Please tell me everything because in my head some of them are still newborns. đŸ˜­đŸ€

08/07/2026

The “Baby is here!” text will never get old. đŸ„č

I know I’m not the one doing the hard work.

You are.

But after weeks—or sometimes months—of appointments, conversations, birth prep, celebrating the little wins, working through the hard days, and cheering you on every step of the way
 getting that birth announcement feels so special.

Whether it was your first baby, your rainbow baby, your VBAC, your unmedicated birth, your planned epidural, or a birth that looked completely different than you imagined, I’m celebrating you.

Because every mama has her own story.
Every birth is hard work.
And every new baby deserves to be celebrated.

So yes
 your prenatal chiropractor is probably doing a happy dance when that text comes through. đŸ’ƒđŸŒđŸ€

Congratulations to every mama who has trusted me to be a small part of your journey. It is truly one of the greatest honors of my job. ✹

One of the most common things I notice in babies is that they have a favorite side.

Maybe every time you lay them down, they turn their head the same direction.

You gently move it back to the middle
 and within a few seconds, they’re right back there.

Most parents think,
“They just have a favorite side.”

But here’s what I start asking


How are feedings going?

Does your baby feed better on one side than the other?

Do you have to hold them differently depending on which side they’re feeding from?

Do they seem more comfortable turning their head one direction than the other?

Those little things might not seem connected



but they often are.

Sometimes that same baby is also extra gassy, difficult to burp, spits up often, or doesn’t like lying flat.

Does every baby with a favorite side have body tension?

No.

But when I see a baby with a strong side preference and feeding challenges, that’s something I want to evaluate.

Babies can’t tell us what’s uncomfortable.

They communicate through the way they move, the positions they prefer, and the things they struggle with.

Sometimes, one of the biggest clues isn’t the feeding itself


It’s the way they’re moving during the feeding.

Sometimes the smallest clues tell the biggest story. If you’re noticing these signs in your baby, we’d love to walk through them with you. Send us a message or book an appointment.

“Wait
 what does a chiropractor have to do with feeding a baby?”

It’s one of the questions we hear most often.

The answer is that feeding your baby is a whole-body activity.

It isn’t just about the latch or if a tongue tie is present or not.

It involves comfort, coordination, movement, positioning, and how your baby’s body functions during a feed.

That’s why, during an evaluation, we’re looking at much more than your baby’s mouth. We’re observing how they move, whether they have a head preference, how comfortably they position themselves, and whether areas of tension might be making feeding more difficult.

At the same time, we know chiropractic is just one piece of the puzzle.

Some families benefit from working with an IBCLC or feeding therapist. Others may need a pediatric dentist to evaluate oral function. Many families benefit from a combination of providers, each bringing a different perspective and area of expertise.

Every baby is different.

Every feeding journey is different.

Our goal is never to convince you that one provider has all the answers.

Our goal is to help families understand their options, feel supported, and build the team that helps feeding become more comfortable and functional for both mom and baby. đŸ€

Prenatal chiropractic care isn’t just for mothers planning a vaginal birth.

Whether your birth plan includes an unmedicated birth, an epidural, an induction, or a scheduled C-section, your body is still carrying, growing, and adapting throughout pregnancy.

Women planning a scheduled C-section still deserve to feel comfortable during pregnancy and supported before and after birth. That’s why many of my C-section moms come in for pregnancy pain relief, previous scar support, deep core preparation, and postpartum recovery.

Because no matter how your baby is born, your body deserves to be cared for too.

Planning a scheduled C-section? We’d love to help you feel your best during pregnancy and prepare for postpartum. Schedule your visit today.

Headaches are one of the most common pregnancy complaints I hear about—and one of the most misunderstood.

Yes, hormones can absolutely play a role, especially in the first trimester. But they’re rarely the only piece of the puzzle.

Sometimes it’s dehydration. Sometimes it’s neck and upper back tension. Sometimes it’s posture, blood sugar, sleep, or simply the way your body is adapting to carrying a growing baby.

That’s why I never want to simply cover up the symptom without asking why it’s happening.

In my office, we take a whole-body approach. We look at movement, posture, muscle tension, lifestyle, hydration, nutrition, and how your body is adapting throughout pregnancy. Gentle chiropractic care—and when appropriate, cranial work—can often make a significant difference.

That said, not every headache is “just a pregnancy headache.”

If you’re having a severe headache after 20 weeks, especially with vision changes, swelling, high blood pressure, or upper right abdominal pain, contact your provider immediately. Those symptoms need prompt medical evaluation.

If your headaches are becoming your normal, you don’t have to just tough it out.

I’d love to help you figure out what’s going on so you can spend more of your pregnancy feeling like yourself again.
