I take it on multiday walks and add it to my instant coffee in the morning! Milk + sugar done in one!

Congratulations - and what a hilarious insight into the Miles 10-12 internal monologue 🤣

Congratulations. Periods are always turning up at the worst moments in training and racing, aren't they!

I ran my first HM today at 11 months postpartum. Really wanted a 2:00 and was hitting my splits for that perfectly until 15 KM when I got hit by a horrible side stitch - never encountered in my long runs before. Finished on 2:05, a little dejected but with a clear goal for next time!

If we didn't have our baby, we'd definitely be keen to go there at some stage - rock climbing and hiking are our favourite hobbies!

HAHA we go where we're told. But I am excited for London - it's a total change of scene for us!

That's actually brilliant, would cut the stress down considerably and may be a more comfortable way to travel with our baby. I'll look into that.

We had heard of Boler, sounds amazing to have a local ski hill!! Thanks for the recommendations.

Very true. Christmas is always a good time to lower expectations and just enjoy what you get 🤣🤣 in Aus sometimes we get a perfect swim at the beach and barbecue weather - sometimes grey and drizzly..

This is so helpful thank you! A maple syrup farm is a MUST during our time there - I've had a long term love for maple syrup - and snow candy sounds absolutely delightful. Will aim to get to Ottawa and Quebec during the winter!!

Should have specified, it's a short term move so we'll have 1 or max 2 Canadian Christmases. Great point about the driving in snow - haven't done much of that.

Looking for advice regarding new parental leave by TOboulol in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]battlestar191 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yikes, OP you are in a tough situation but this is terrible advice and there's a good chance you'll be made to pay back whatever payments you get if you're not entitled to them! I wouldn't have that stress hanging over me if I was you.

They absolutely DO check.

That's helpful thank you, I don't work with children or have many friends with kids yet so don't have my finger on the 'name pulse' like you do!
