This episode is sponsored by Mimic Motion. Introducing Mimic Motion: The Ultimate Baby Sleep Solution For generations, parents have relied on car rides to lull their babies to sleep. The gentle hum of the engine, the rhythmic motion of the road, and the soothing vibrations create the perfect environment for a peaceful nap. But what if you could recreate that magic at home? Enter Mimic Motion, the baby sleep aid designed to bring the car ride experience directly to your nursery. To find out more visit: https://mimicmotion.co.uk/ In this episode… We dive into a conversation around baby tech, sleep, and innovation — and asking some critical questions along the way. We speak with the founder of Mimic Motion, discussing the role of technology in parenting – specifically around aiding sleep, and ultimately creating an optimal sleeping environment for babies – whether that is for your baby at home, or in an educational, care or health setting. We acknowledge that tech in parenting, and education and care is a layered topic — full of potential, but also full of health related, developmental and ethical questions.

Is your baby struggling with sleep, and you're wondering if it's normal or something more?

Dr. Carole Keim discusses baby apps and electronics in this episode, exploring what is helpful and what isn't necessary. Dr. Keim says that not much is really needed in terms of electronics for babies. The things she recommends include baby trackers, baby monitors, white noise machines, Kindle for mom, and aromatherapy diffusers to aid with sleep. She details what each app or electronic item does and highlights specific brands and best use practices.Baby tracker apps are helpful because they track how many times babies are eating, peeing, and pooping to ensure they're doing enough. Useful apps for moms include a Kindle or audiobook, so reading can be done while feeding. Dr. Keim breaks down all the types of baby monitors and sorts through the best to use in terms of convenience, expense, and video versus audio. She also explores electronic bulb suckers and why they can be more helpful than manual versions and the benefits of essentail oil diffusers. There are not a lot of electronics needed, which makes this episode so useful in sorting through the myriad of ads and options available.In this episode:AppsBaby tracker - feeding, peeing, poopingWonder weeksSolid starts app for baby led weaning Kindle app for mom Audiobooks or podcasts for mom Don't need: owlet ElectronicsBaby monitor with 2 parent units for sound / video baby monitorWhite noise machine - Hatch sound machine + rest go, or any portable white noise machineElectric bulb suckerMobile for over the changing tableDiffuser for essential oils (listen to season 3 for specifics on oils)Don't need: special music for baby, humidifier, video monitor (though it can be nice to have in addition to a regular monitor), snoo bassinet As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.Dr. Keim has extensively researched the information presented in this episode.

Ciarra and Samantha have special guest midwife Leonora Colen back discuss the complexities of high-risk pregnancies. What an OB/GYN considers high risk can be completely different than high risk in the midwifery setting. Leonora emphasizes the importance of risk assessment over the label of 'high risk.' Together they explore common reasons for risk assessment, such as preeclampsia and gestational diabetes, and highlight factors that are often misunderstood as high risk. The discussion also underscores the significance of childbirth education and the need for trust between expectant parents and their healthcare providers. Ultimately, the conversation aims to empower parents to make informed choices during pregnancy and childbirth. Website: www.HomeBirthHoney.com IG: @‌HomeBirthHoneyATX Please feel free to reach out to us with any recommendations for show episode ideas.

There are so many unrealistic expectations perpetuated about older baby sleep that it's no wonder that so many parents are confused and overwhelmed about what's going on. This episode is the third in my series on realistic expectations.

Sometimes people want to try to get labor moving with more natural labor induction techniques before they get to the point of being faced with a medical induction. Due dates are given more weight with some providers than with others. In an attempt to avoid Pitocin, Foley Balloons, Cervidil, Cytotec, or any of the other medical induction techniques, some people opt for teas, herbs, and more.  In this episode of Birth, Baby! Podcast, hosts Ciarra Morgan and Samantha Kelly, along with their returning guest midwife Leonora Colon, delve into the intricacies of labor promoters and the importance of understanding due dates in pregnancy. They discuss the significance of due dates, the protocols midwives follow regarding labor timing, and various natural methods to encourage labor. The conversation emphasizes the need for autonomy in the birthing process and the importance of supportive care, whether at home or in a hospital setting. Website: www.HomeBirthHoney.com Instagram: @homebirthhoneyatx Please feel free to reach out to us with any recommendations for show episode ideas.
