Having an unsettled baby is hard, affecting all aspects of parenting. In this episode, I’m joined by Alice from Baby et Al, an IBCLC and expert on fussy, unsettled babies. We cover some of the common causes of unsettled behavior, navigating the maze of over-lapping symptoms, and the importance of getting to the route cause of what’s going on with your baby to guide your next steps. We also talk about the overwhelm that comes with supporting littles in these situations and the importance of getting support and taking care of yourself.

About Alice
Hi, I'm Alice and my journey in healthcare and motherhood has led me to become a trusted International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC). With a background as a nurse and health visitor, I've spent over a decade supporting mothers and babies, but something was missing. The red tape and politics within the NHS were getting in the way of providing the support mothers truly needed. In 2021, I decided it was time for a change and ventured into private practice.

My passion and expertise lie in infant feeding, and I have a deep-rooted interest in helping parents navigate the challenges of reflux, colic, and allergies. I know firsthand how an unsettled baby can impact your experience as a mother. Motherhood isn't always a walk in the park. I firmly believe that the unfiltered reality of 'not always loving’ every moment of it should be talked about more openly so mothers today do not feel overwhelmed, exhausted and like they are failing at motherhood!
