Mamatography Week 2 : Life At Home, Mainly
| January 18, 2012 | Posted by Luschka under Mamatography, Projects |
It’s week two of Mamatography, and it’s been half a very quiet week and then as everything ‘started back’ after the holidays, it’s become insanely busy!
BoobieMilk Bras Competition
| January 16, 2012 | Posted by Luschka under Competitions, Products, Reviews |
I have under-estimated the value of a decent bra for most of my adult life. I love pretty underwear. There’s something feminine about it. It makes me feel good… I like it – I just never thought it was a worthwhile investment. Until I had my first bra-fitting for a decent bra: one that doesn’t…

Friday Features: ‘Pineapples And Artichokes’ And ‘The Mahogany Way’
| January 13, 2012 | Posted by Luschka under Friday Features, Misc |
Pineapples and Artichokes is a warm and loving blog, written by Shannon, mother to Moira and Davis. Shannon writes in very much the way I tend to think: with a steady stream of consciousness and deep introspection. She turns it into a narrative of her children though, and is – to my mind at least…

| January 11, 2012 | Posted by Luschka under Mamatography, On Mama's Mind, Projects |
It’s a new year and a new photo challenge. I have been moaning far and wide about my camera being broken, and the fact that I’m using an old camera I’d given to Ameli to play with as my main camera again, with my BlackBerry for a back-up. Rather sad, no? Anyway – it’s about…
Reduce, Reuse, Recycle : 5-5-5 Things A Day
| January 10, 2012 | Posted by Luschka under Carnival of Natural Parenting, Carnivals |
I’m not sure where exactly this fits into Natural Parenting, but I’m pretty sure that my Experiment in Natural Family Living this month must fall in a category somewhere: Decluttering.

Sea-Band is a drug-free nausea, motion sickness and morning sickness relief band for adults and children.
When I was pregnant with Ameli, I tried pretty much everything on the market to deal with the sickness my doctor kept telling me was in my head. For the first few weeks I can honestly say that I did find some temporary relief from nausea, at times, with the use of Sea-Bands. Of course, once morning sickness turned into Hyperemesis Gravidarum, there was nothing in the world that could help, until I was eventually hospitalised. (more…)
