YUMMY MUMMY & YUMMY BABY PRODUCTS

WHAT ARE YUMMY MUMMY & YUMMY BABY PRODUCTS?

THESE IS A LABOUR OF LOVE, NOTICE THE PUN! I LIKE MANY WOMAN LOVE BATH PRODUCTS AND LOTIONS.  I AM ALSO A MATERNITY AND NEWBORN PHOTOGRAPHER, AND MOTHER OF 3 LARGE GROWNISH CHILDREN.  I KINDA HAVE A LITTLE KNOWLEDGE ON HOW OUR BODIES ARE AFFECTED BY PREGNANCY, HORMONES AND THE ENVIRONMENT.  I ALSO KNOW A BIT ABOUT HOW BIRTH, THE ENVIRONMENT, WHAT MOM EATS, AND BASICALLY EVERYTHING THAT TOUCHES BABY AFFECTS ITS SKIN.  AND WHEN THE SKIN IS IRRITATED SO IS BABY, WHICH LEADS TO A CONCERNED MOM AND DAD.  

As well as having 3 kids, and shooting hundreds of newborns and children.  I have also studied Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine.  The theory behind traditional Chinese herbalism is using natural sources and lifestyle changes to stimulate the body’s own restorative mechanisms.

When all of the interconnected parts of the body are in balance, the body is considered healthy; and any issues that pop up — skin-related or otherwise — can be traced back to an imbalance somewhere in the body. This holistic view means that TCM skincare isn’t relegated to topical creams and ointments. “Skin conditions are treated both topically and internally in TCM,” Antonia Balfour, the founder of Yin Yang Dermatology, tells The Zoe Report.

Through research, and experience we have developed soothing creams and bath additives safe for mum and baby to enjoy. Bath time is not only relaxing it can be therapeutic. Spending time in water has a tremendous soothing effect. Some believe this is because it's reminiscent of the time we spent in our mother's womb surrounded by amniotic fluid. It may also be related to how the water makes us feel weightless and free.   

When we’re around water, our brain becomes engaged in our environment and we enjoy pleasant sensory stimulation. We become so focused on the water that we enter a mindful state. As a result, we enjoy lower stress levels; relief from anxiety, pain, and depression; improved mental clarity and focus; and better sleep.

Water also provides soothing sounds that help us feel calm, as evidenced by all the relaxation and sleep aids that use sounds of water – whether it be crashing waves, the pitter patter of rainfall, or the rush of a flowing river.  How many of us listen to these sounds on a sound machine or app?

Whenever I had a cranky baby for any reason we always headed to the shower, a great escape for us both!  

 

As we develop and test products we will be releasing them.  All products will be vegan, natural and made in small batches.   Sometimes when we try a new recipe we will do a call for testers, so watch for those days!  

Everything smells Delicious, hence the YUMMY MUMMY, YUMMY BABY!
