WHAT DO I DO?
.
In light of my first week back to practice after maternity leave, I want to share with you a bit about why I do what I do, what it is that I do, and how I can help YOU 💗
.
Firstly, I am a mom, Naturopathic Doctor, and women's health advocate. I strive to help women feel energized, and inspired and educated about their health and bodies 🤓
.
.
. 🙋🏻‍♀️I know what it is like to feel exhausted all the time, unmotivated to do the things you love, and just drained. I know what it is like to deal with debilitating period cramps, acne, and PMS symptoms. I know what it is like to have an upset stomach, bloating, and other digestive disturbances affecting your day to day life. I know what it is like when every food seems to upset your stomach and make you feel blah, and not know where to start.
.
I want as many women as possible to know that you DON'T have to live with these symptoms. That they are common, but NOT always NORMAL. I want women to know that there is almost always away to reduce, or eliminate these kinds of symptoms 💛.
.
.
Stay tuned over the next few weeks as I share with you more details about how I can help you, and tips and tricks to get you started on the path of feeling great. As always, if you have any questions feel free to DM me, or contact me through my website through the link in my bio! .

BACK TO WORK? 🤷🏻‍♀️
.
This beautiful Little blue eyed boy can sense the changes going on around here, I am sure of it! The past week he has been so clingy, barely been napping, and waking up a few times in the night again... @drrorygibbons is currently trying to get him to nap, we’ve been trying for 1.5 hours 🥴
.
It is like he knows that I am going back to work tomorrow. Either that or he’s getting another tooth. Or going through a development milestone. Or something he ate is bugging his tummy. Or he’s over tired. Or all of the above....ohhhh Motherhood 🤣🤯
.
.
Mamas who went back to work after your babes were born, what are your biggest tips for making the transition smoother?? .

WEDDING WITH A BABE 🤞🏼
.
Weddings are definitely different with babies! But we made it through, quite successfully! A few necessities -
.
1️⃣ BABY CARRIER - @drrorygibbons wore him in the @ergobaby for the ceremony and the better part of the evening.
.
2️⃣ EXTRA HANDS - thanks to Auntie @chelsiechristianson for all the help!
.
3️⃣ BOOKS AND TOYS - entertainment during dinner! .
.
Congratulations to @jordyntaylorstyle and @drebucci - last night was so beautiful, we love you guys 💗

INCASE YOU MISSED IT 👆🏼
.
I am returning from maternity leave and beginning practice again in 10 DAYS! I will be at Healing Cedar Wellness in Port Moody, BC on Monday’s and Wednesday’s!
.
If you, or someone you know could use some support with energy, sleep, hormone balancing, digestion or anything else - I’d love to help 💗

DATE IDEA 💗
.
@drrorygibbons and I had our FIRST day out without our little guy today to celebrate our anniversary! It was a wonderful day!
.
. 🚴🏽‍♀️ If you want a great, active, inexpensive date idea, we’d highly recommend renting these Shaw bikes for the day! It is $12 for 24 hour use of the bikes, as long as your rides are under 30 minutes each! We went to Kitsilano, Granville Island, all around false creek...it was lovely! It was so easy to just pop the bikes in the designated bike racks and hop off for a walk. .
We brought our own helmets (safety first 🙋🏻‍♀️), but some of the bikes did have helmets attached! .
.
Hope everyone is having a good start to the first week back after summer! .

HAPPY LABOUR DAY 💛
.
Pun intended 🙌🏼 It’s so wild looking back at pictures from being pregnant, and realizing that my little Leon was in there all along!
.
Mamas! In light of labour day, I want to know, what was one thing you couldn’t have done without during labour?
.

Aside from @drrorygibbons and everything he did for me - mine was a TENS machine! I had back labour for the first half of labour, so this was an incredible pain reliever for me! 👏🏼

H I 🙋🏻‍♀️
.
I just thought I’d do a little intro post for all of you new followers, and give you 5 fun little facts about me that you may not know!
.
1️⃣ I recently just rebranded myself to Dr. Ally Power. When I graduated from school, I used my full name (Alexandra) on all of my branding because I felt the need to prove my professionalism. Well, it felt really inauthentic, because I go by Ally to all of my friends and family, and introduce myself as Dr. Ally in a professional setting, so why continue with something that doesn’t feel genuine 🤷🏻‍♀️
.
2️⃣ I love coffee. Like a lot. I don’t drink it in excess but my gosh I look forward to a delicious americano (or 2) every day. I’ve become a bit of a coffee snob too...right now my favorite is @49th with a splash of oat milk ☕️
.
3️⃣ I grew up wanting to be a pediatric oncologist. While I have THE MOST respect for every single person who works in this field (* @chelsiechristianson ), I am so glad I volunteered in a hospital in high school and realized it wasn’t for me.
.
4️⃣ I despise shopping, it’s more of a stress than an enjoyment for me! If I have to get something from a store, it’s in, out, done!
.
5️⃣ I enjoy baking much more than cooking! Thank gosh @drrorygibbons likes cooking because if he didn’t, I might alternate smoothies, avocado toast, and homemade muffins for every meal 🤷🏻‍♀️

🔟 MONTHS!
.
Holy, how time flies. I can’t believe this beautiful boy is 10 months old. It is still surreal that this spunky, funny, sweet tiny human is ours 💛
.
🍼 What a month it has been! Leon is consistently able to take a bottle now, which has given mama more independence, and @drrorygibbons some relief that he is able to feed him. It’s like somehow, he knew it was time. With me gearing up to go back to work, he didn’t really have a choice of the matter, but he just stopped fighting it and accepted it. And now, he loves the bottle, he gets so excited if he sees one, and before it was tears and pushing it away! Yay! 🙌🏼
.
He is getting a little more into solid foods as well, which is relieving for us! What a journey that has been! Right now he loves eating steamed peaches and zucchini 🍑
.
🏃🏻‍♂️He is also ON THE MOVE. He’s crawling everywhere, pulling himself to stand on anything possible, pulling things off shelves...oh my! I want to give him space and an opportunity to explore, but also of course, keep him safe.
.
❔Mamas, what were your best baby proofing strategies once your littles were on the move?
