Bentley is back again, he was here last week as a model for a 1:1 class I was teaching.

Today was his day... he made me work very hard to get his shots but its always worth that little bit of extra patience!

I have a huge washing pile too! 

Bentley was also the first baby to try out the new studio eeek!

Shellie Wall Photography has grown up!!

It now has its very own studio... with all the facilities and EVERYTHING in one space!! 

There is a comfy sofa for clients to snuggle up on and relax, a changing area to change baby in comfort, also an area for you to make a cuppa!! 

A toilet is on the premises too.

All the blankets and props are on display for you to choose and products are displayed too.

It's all very exciting and I can't wait to get started.....

Hopefully later in the year I will be able to offer in studio viewings to all clients thus making it easy to see and touch all the products available to you! 

I also now have facilities to accept all major card payments!

So looking forward to getting started hopefully see you all very soon........

At The bump, Baby and Toddler show last sunday i meet some women asking for help signing an epetition about heart screening in newborns.. after hearing thier story i offered to run a blog post to help raise awareness of this condition and how easy it could be to dianose the problem..... Here is the story and please sign the epetition at the end it will only take two minutes of your time! 

Maximus' story 

1 in 145 babies are born with a congenital heart defect.

I had my beautiful healthy boy in July but I felt something wasn't quite right

I asked them to check his chest at our 8 week check up but the dr said everything was fine. As the weeks went on Maximus had a constant cough and sniffles I took him back to doctors a few times but was told everything was fine.

By 14 weeks I knew something was seriously wrong but he wasn't diagnosed until 15 weeks being in serve heart failure. Maximus was diagnosed with a complete AVSD, two holes in his heart and only one valve. Unfortunately we were in N&N for three weeks when he took a turn for the worse and had to be rushed to intensive care, St Mary's Paddington. This was such a scary time and the doctors soon realised they couldn't get him off the ventilator so had to push his surgery forward with Gt Ormond Street. With the complications he suffered meant his risk in surgery was higher.

Luckily Maximus had his life saving surgery at 19 weeks, no parent wants to have to watch their baby have surgery but by this point we were praying for the surgery to make him better.

If his condition was picked up after birth it would of been more controlled. He would of been put on medication to control the symptoms and had the surgery between 3-6 months. We would of had a stay in hospital of two weeks maximum.

There is simple cheap painless test which if took place with the other newborn checks might of detected his heart condition and saved the pain and suffering he went through.

There are so many similar stories to mine where the heart defect goes unnoticed, this should not be happening.

They check for hearing but not for a congenital heart defect which is the number one birth defect.

The Childrens Heart Federation are asking the Government to put in place a test called the Pulse Oximetry Screening for all newborn babies. A study of 20,055 showed the test had a success rate of 75%. The test monitors the amount of oxygen in the blood.

We need your help to get this passed and made legal for every hospital in the UK to perform this test as a standard procedure.

Please sign our E-petition and help save a baby's life today!
