For the fulltime mum on the go, the perfect resistance training tool: fill a three-wheeler pram to the gunwales with seven kilos of baby + double helping of kiddie paraphernalia. Loop a webbing strap around the handle for the three-year-old to hang onto. While three-year-old plays waterskiing (head back, arms out straight, heels dug into pavement, entire body at 45 degree angle to ground, towards which entire weight also directed) attempt to push entire apparatus uphill to Mainly Music. Repeat weekly until forearms and eyeballs bulge.
To those whose emails I've been neglecting for weeks now, apologies. Especially to those who are about to have babies (we salute you!) Have had rather a lot on. Including, this week, marking exams. And practising for a Bar Mitzvah next weekend. In Nelson, of all places. So in lieu of Maggie updates, which are coming, I promise, I leave you with some interesting reflections on the politics and practicality of breastfeeding. Yeah. Wot she said.
