Cranial Osteopathy: Guest blog from Nargis Ahmad
April 02, 2013
Within minutes of being born our first daughter latched on to feed beautifully. After the shock of the initial soreness of having your nipples sucked the whole time (plus having to recover from a Day One nip), within a few weeks my nipples had gotten used to it and I was able to feed in comfort. (Until teeth and biting become an issue that is!) So when our second daughter was born, I expected things to go the same way. They more or less did. But that ‘initial soreness’ didn’t seem to go away as quickly – especially on my right side. She was five weeks old and I was still in a fair amount of pain when I was feeding. I took her to see Nargis to see what she thought.
Boxing Boot Camp: Days Four & Five
March 12, 2013
Day Four was tough. For some reason I'd woken up at 3:40am and could not go back to sleep. Then 11MO woke at 5am, needing a change, feed and settle, and then 3YO woke around 5:20 with a bad dream, needing a hug, song and settle. By the time all that was done, it was very very tempting to creep back into bed. But I decided to push on through, and was very pleased I did. On days four and five, having learnt the standard punches, and three-punch combinations, we moved on to more difficult four, five and six punch combinations. Thankfully for my tired brain seemingly unable to count to five consistently, we no longer did five repetitions of a combination and five jumps/squats.
Boxing Boot Camp: Day Three
March 06, 2013
Day Three and I'm starting to get into my stride. Woke at 5:29, grabbed remote, turned the power off as soon as I heard the *pubp*, grabbed phone AND hair band and normal clips and snuck downstairs. Freshened up, clothes on, fruit juice drunk and I was out the door at 5:45. AND I'd finally found the yoga mat. I am in the zone!
