How did this 6 foot Aussie end up on your television screen in the USA? Find out here.

Baring My Breasts: For Work

New mother and great friend Ani and I couldn’t help but take this picture of us and our pumping bras. These unusual looking bras with two big holes at the front are one of the many things people just don’t tell you about before you pop out your little hungry angel.

You see, I’m getting ready to head back to work as a new breast feeding mother. This raises a little challenge.. how to feed Siena when she’s at home and her milk lady is 12 miles away at work?

It turns out I’m not the first or the last that will be experiencing this problem and thanks to many wonderful mommies before me there are some wonderful devices to help keep baby milk drunk. It’s time to share those devices with other mommies to be, because really they not only serve a great function of helping get milk to baby but they are pretty dang funny too, and you can never have too many smiles when you’re forced to look like a cow in a milk farm.

Blast From The Past

Here is a blast from the past for you… A friend just emailed me this youtube link of an interview I did about 4 years ago when I was in Portland, OR. It’s soooo cute, you have to see this band I discovered. So happy to google them and see they are still around. I think they could be the next big thing. The songs are pretty catchy. Did I mention they were only in 5th and 6th grade!!! Enjoy  :)

Mission Hot Mama: The First 6 Weeks

Looking down right now while I type this on the computer, I have two things staring back at me… 1) the little bundle of joy baby that I love so much and 2) hanging over her head is this fun post baby belly that it’s safe to say I don’t love so much (but is soooo worth this new little angel being in our lives).

I’ve said “Mission Hot Mama” out loud so we all know the plan is in motion to say bye bye baby belly but I want every mother-to-be to know this isn’t a quick get back in shape plan. I thought I’d be working out as soon as the baby came out of me, boy was I in for a shock.

The first 6 weeks isn’t all about bouncing back into pre-baby shape, actually it’s pretty much nothing about you and it’s all about baby. I call my first 6 weeks, “Mission Love Bug” instead of Mission Hot Mama. All your energy is focused on the little new bundle of joy you’re so lucky to be holding in your arms.

Dad’s Life Is A Pretty Good Life

My mum just found this on youtube and sent it to me to share with my husband. He couldn’t stop laughing and baby Siena was a dancing machine as we watched it. So grab your baby and your hubby and press play… guaranteed smiles :)

Mission Hot Mama!

Today is a big day, it’s the start of Mission Hot Mama! Time to get back into pre-baby shape!

My super personal trainer Angie Lewis from Full Circle Fitness and Wellness, has a 3 month Hot Mama fat loss program that we’ll be doing together (even Siena can come join in). It includes strength, cardio, and a nutrition plan that’s designed especially for nursing mothers. I can’t wait to share my progress and her tips with all of you.

I’d happily concluded from my research (reading People magazine, watching Entertainment tonight etc) that it should take me about 2 days to look like I never popped a watermelon out of a grape (thanks Bethenny Frankel and Giselle Bündchen). Angie and I found a small problem with that research today when I jumped on the scale…. 6 weeks post baby and I still have 15 pounds to lose to get back to my normal weight.

Baring My Breasts (for baby)

Welcome to my first blog on my boobs. Yes I’m now baring my breasts and it’s all for this little angel in the picture above (I like to call that her “milk drunk” face).

I used to call her milk bottles my “top pot donuts” and totally didn’t think people should flop their jigglies out in public. Noticed I say “used” to. Yes now that I breastfeed, I too am one of those jiggly flopper. Actually my 5 week old baby refers to me as “the milk lady” in her goo’s and gah’s I know it.

I’ve also made leaps and bounds on being able to no longer call them my top pots, but how about titty, breast, and boob… oh I feel so grown up. So there we go, one benefit to being in titty jail with your baby… you get to call them what they are, and there is no need to hide in your vocabulary what you’re not hiding in public anymore.

A good friend suggested I write a blog about my experience breastfeeding. This was before Siena was born and I immediately said no. There was no way I was going to talk about my boobs in public. Guess who changed her mind?

So here I am, baring my breasts to the internet world with my top tit-tips to successful breastfeeding:
