Clinical Tools for the Changing Landscape of Newborn Care Add-on Lecture Pack
Current research shows that expanding our definition of newborn care and assessment is crucial to establishing lifelong wellbeing for the infants in our care. As health care providers we have a crucial role to play that goes beyond physical care. The way we administer care and the modeling we provide to parents has an important impact on an infant’s mental and emotional health throughout their lifetime.
Expand your knowledge and skills with this practice changing package that provides updates on important topics like jaundice, oral examination, sleep and breastfeeding while also diving deeper into topics such as bodily autonomy in newborns, the importance of responsive feeding, trauma informed care, and how babies learn to love.
*Only those registering for the main conference, or have registered for the main conference will have the ability to purchase this lecture pack. You will have the opportunity to purchase this add-on at the time of conference registration, or anytime afterwards (during the time of the conference).

Topic: Trauma Informed Care in Clinical Infant Oral Assessment: Understanding Body Autonomy - [View Abstract]
Abstract:View Full Presentation InformationThe Mouth, nasal passages, ears, eyes, digestive & reproductive organ systems are all orifices or openings in our body and define as our most intimate parts of our body and hold the precincts of Body Autonomy. Since a physical examination of various kinds are a requirement for assessment & evaluation in clinical care, it provides us with an opportunity to establish trust and reinforce a safe encounter between a care provider and infant patient. Anyone especially an infant going through a physical examination maybe at risk to be experiencing shame, vulnerability & trauma which can have lifelong impacts such as triggers for past memories, anxiety, distress or discomfort or even PTSD. Immediately after the trauma, this can lead to oral aversions symptoms complete with refusal to latch & breastfeed, turning away from food, gagging. coughing & choking. Oral aversion situations pose an extremely stressful situation for all — the infant and the family and the care providers. Therefore, a respectable trauma-informed approach to the physical oral examination during the assessment, evaluation and treatment and rehabilitation of oral restrictions or ankylofrenulae (tongue tie) is essential and important. This will involve using gentle communication skills both verbal and nonverbal language and maneuvers to communicate respect of body autonomy and restore a sense of safety, trust & connection.

Abstract:View Full Presentation InformationFor many years, science told new parents that babies were “blank slates”, didn’t feel anything, and must not be touched. Research, though, has proven otherwise. This session will cover these historical theories as well as the theory of attachment and bonding. Discussing the physiological, neurobiological, and hormonal basis for love, the session will cover the prenatal to toddler stages of a young child’s life to discover the amazing changes in both the infant and maternal bodies to prepare for and reinforce bonding and attachment. To end, this session will touch on the birthing parent’s mental health and its effect on the infant.

A love for babies fueled Kimberly's 20+ year career serving families in the postpartum time frame. With a passion for nurturing new parents, she trains doulas and educators with CAPPA to support and educate for a strong beginning of bonding and connection. She loves teaching expectant families to have a smooth transition to new baby life through the Providence Healthcare System in Portland, OR. She began as a postpartum doula, then quickly added breastfeeding and new parent classes to help parents from the very beginning, and then became an IBCLC to meet their bigger challenges. She owns ABC Doula & Newborn Care in Portland, OR, is the mother of 2 grown kids, and resides in Phoenix near her parents. Like many other baby whisperers, Kimberly has honed skills for listening and responding to babies that parents can quickly learn to understand and interpret their tiny humans. When she sees parents struggling, and especially with the most fussy of babies, her heart hopes that all parents could be given the tools to compassionately support their little ones, and learn how to meet their needs, which creates more confidence in themselves in their new roles as well.Title: Understanding Infant CryingAbstract:View Full Presentation InformationHow much crying is too much crying? When parents reach out with questions about their babies crying, what parameters are available to help guide them to understand their infants? This session will aim to guide professionals who support the newborn family, including offering guidelines for number of hours that are considered normal, descriptions of high and low criers, timelines of expected crying, and solutions and alternatives when the typical approaches don’t seem to work. Utilizing the research on the Crying Curve--a pattern of crying beginning at about 42 weeks of gestation, peaking at 6-8 weeks of age, and sharply declining by 12-15 weeks--parents can navigate newborn life according to their gestational age. 15 different studies have concluded that this pattern is common across infants of all cultures, gestational ages (based on a 40-week gestation), and parenting styles—and the applications are many in the early parenting world. Help families learn to utilize this model to help assess their newborn. Multiple models of interpreting newborn crying from body language to sound and tone to help interpret newborn needs will be shared. Let’s move beyond reassuring parents that “colic” will end by 3 months and offer them solutions and alternatives.

Topic: Supporting Families With Sleep While Optimising Attachment and Responsive Feeding - [View Abstract]
Abstract:View Full Presentation InformationMany parents feel confused about how to approach sleep with their infants. There is a lack of consistent, evidence-based information about infant sleep, and in the context of ever-increasing contextual pressures, this can lead many parents to ask for help with sleep. However, sleep information that is respectful to mental health, attachment and breastfeeding can be hard to find, particularly when national guidelines seem to advocate approaches that promote a non-response. Perinatal professionals are uniquely placed in positions of trust with families, and possess advanced skills in listening, counselling and providing information. They are therefore well-placed to provide information to families about sleep proactively, which may reduce parental stress and frustration, and lead to fewer families becoming desperate and turning to solutions that include cessation of breastfeeding, separating parents and infants, and leaving infants to cry.

Abstract:View Full Presentation InformationThe yellow colour on the skin and eyes in the newborn is called newborn jaundice, which is common and usually harmless. It develops often 2 days after birth and it must be ruled out during the newborn physical examination. However, in a small number of babies, being jaundiced can be due to a more serious underlying condition that needs to be assessed and urgently determined if treatment is needed as there could be a risk for brain damage. An early assessment and adequate support to the family is crucial to protect the breastfeeding dyad. Learn more about the risk factors and clinical features observed with neonatal jaundice and the current guidelines for treatment.

Her most recent midwifery article focused on supporting maternal and infant physiology after birth. She is originally from Australia and has resided in the United Kingdom for 30 plus years.
Abstract:View Full Presentation InformationFrom the moment of conception, maternal and fetal physiology is intrinsically linked in a synergistic partnership, with optimal infant development dependent on this relationship continuing well into the infants first 1001 days. A key pivotal facet of this reciprocal relationship is responsive breastfeeding. Responsive breastfeeding is far more than a way of infant feeding, but a sensitive synchronous parenting style that secures optimal growth, nutrition, immune development, infant /maternal attachment, whilst fostering successful lactation and the development of positive feeding habits well into infancy. This presentation will explain what is meant by responsive breastfeeding, exploring the science behind how this type of feeding promotes optimal infant health.
The presentation will conclude with an exploration of the wider benefits of responsive breastfeeding, examining the possibility of this type of feeding style contributing to improving several public health issues, in particular childhood aversity and obesity. Lastly, recommendations for promotion and support of responsive breastfeeding will be outlined.
