You’re all nailing it. 🖤 Hope you have all had a good day so far. If you haven’t already, the best thing we did this week is join our local mutual aid group via Fb. Whole street chatting on WhatsApp rn. Why does it always take a crisis. But watch out capitalist overlords - local, sustainable, loving community is coming. And we don’t want you.💥💗

Dear Mother Earth, Thank you for being so big and for making the trees and the blue tit and the snails. Love from iyra, 3 (and Zia, 1 who “ruined the blue tit”) #LoveLettersToMotherEarth 🌍 ❤️#DigitalStrike #ClimateStrikeOnline cus #COVID_19uk

There are dates that stick in our minds as life changing memories. Some amazing and joyous, some devastating and difficult to comprehend. For me and my darling best friend, T, the first of these is 27th May 2018. I was driving to a golf tournament in Scotland waiting to hear from T who was due any day with her second son. I heard my phone beep and read on my phone ‘we lost Emil Sunday morning. Placenta Abruption, I have no words. He was alive in the morning but was delivered stillborn’. Tears flooded my eyes and I had NO idea how to respond. I was nowhere near her to even go put her in my embrace! There is no getting away from the 10 ton load of grief that hits you over and over and over and over again. Love and pain aren’t supposed to go together. To watch what she then went through was heart breaking. The second date, 29th June 2018, when darling Emil was cremated. Tears and devastation and just disbelief as his father carried his small blue coffin into the church. THIS IS NOT HOW IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE. The balloons we released for him, and all of us dressed in rainbow colours (not black!) as T had asked, forever stay in my mind. Its hard to get through chapters like this without medical support, counselling, people to just listen, to hear and take solace in how others have coped. Recovery is slow and definitely isn’t a straight path from devastation to being better. . This is why, in memory of Emil, I have decided to run the London Landmarks Half Marathon (LLHM) on 29th March 2020 to raise money for the charity @tommys. They fund and conduct pioneering research into the causes and prevention of baby loss (miscarriage, stillbirth and premature birth) and provide expert care and information to help make pregnancy safer for everyone’. As well as research they provide support to parents who have lost a child or are soon-to-be parents and need reassurance and guidance as they take that journey. Quite the target to run 13.1 miles but anything at all you can give to support is most gratefully received. Emil, forever in our hearts, every rainbow leads us to you. xx Kusum . Please please donate! (link in bio) 💜 . 🦋 art by @spiritysol

Well this is insane. A mum fed her 3 year old in a shop and it went viral, in a bad way. Sarah @amongstthestars_3 was doing what we all do every day (#AnyWhereAnyTimeAnyAge!) but has been trolled deep by douchebags on social media - and even by a radio presenter. So naturally, she did what we would all do. She bombarded insta with beautiful pics of her #breastfedtoddler. And tomorrow, she and an army of breastfeeding mums are heading to his radio station in Sydney for a nurse in. Because it turns out we really have a lot of work to do in order to #normalisebreastfeeding ffs! If you don’t live there, you can still be part of it: upload a picture with the hashtag #AnywhereAnyTimeAnyAge. This is our kids’ one chance to be as healthy, loved, well-balanced, adjusted, confident, strong, kind, loving and smart as possible. You are an incredible mama @amongstthestars_3! We are all sat on the floor in Target, outside a radio station, on the beach, on the messy bathroom floor and in our connected nursing sister souls with you. 💔💔💔 . #normalizebreastfeeding #breastfedbaby #breastfeedingmama #breastfeedingmum #breastfeedingmom #fulltermbreastfeeding #naturaltermbreastfeeding #breastfeedingweek #gentleparenting #attachmentparenting #ap #responsiveparenting #breastfeedingrocks #extendedbreastfeeding

Dear daughters, I’m sorry. You did not ask to be born into a world on the brink of collapse. You deserve the same hopeful future I grew up with. You should not have to go to climate protests instead of baby groups. Your lives should not be one of the last ones on earth. If we make it to the next decade or two and you ask me how. How I could have carried on like everything is normal. How I could not have done every single thing possible to create a safer future for you. I do not want to avoid your eyes. I will not pretend. I will say, I’m sorry. 🖤 . As parents, how are you dealing with the #ClimateCrisis? Are you able to be engaged or change your habits so it feels like you’re doing something? Or does the increasingly hopeless science switch you off? How do you talk to your friends, family and kids about it? It’s not something there is guidelines about. Yet. . I’ve been learning lately how to speak to kids about the #climateemergency through watching videos and reading articles with psychologists. I’ll share some soon - but definitely research before attempting it. With toddlers and school age kids, apparently it’s best to talk about animal loss so they don’t have to think about anything bad happening to them. . When I took iyra (3) and Zia (1) to their last climate protest about the Australian bushfires, we talked about fire being dangerous for koala bears and kangaroos. How will I explain one day that 1 billion animals died because of us. Human-made climate change is worsening fires, floods, extreme weather, poverty and conflict. This is only the beginning. And it isn’t just in far away places. Harvest failures mean food everywhere begins to disappear. That means your town, your shop, your cupboard will be empty. This is why in 2020, we’re learning to grow our own food. Etc.. . Another way to talk to young adults, our kids if they’re lucky enough to grow into teenagers, is to apologise. Our generations will be hated for what we have left them. There are no words. I’m sorry. . #climatechange #deepadaptation #climateactionnow #climatestrike #climatejustice #climatebreakdown #climateprotest #climatekids #climatekid #climatechild #extinctionrebellion #imsorry

Flying into the new decade like.. we pledging not to fly! ✈✊🌎❤ Also continuing as always to BUY LESS in 2020. Depop, ebay, FB marketplace/groups, friends & charity shops have pretty much everything U ever need. Reduce, reuse, rerewind selectorrr... ❤ Zia's dress: cousin's, slippers: other cousin's. My dress: charity shop, tights: had for like 10 years. One small thing that makes it feel like we're helping stop the planet burning us all alive. ☠🎉 #myplanetpledge via @xr_families_london . #climatecrisis #climateemergency #ecologicalemergency #climateaction #reducereuserecycle #buyless #flyless #flightfree2020 #greenparenting #consciousparenting #newyearsresolution #newyearchallenge #2020goals #UNSDGs #actonclimate #secondhand #secondhandclothes #zerowaste #flyingbaby

Edit and pass it on, gentle mamas! 😁❤ All we want for Christmas is yooooouniversal equality in the face of rising right wing governments built on colonialism, racism, sexism, poverty & oil -- who are cashing in on our ecological and human extinction.

Yeah m8. Oops left the keys in the door and put the kids in the fridge again. 😨I just bumped into a mum on the Mad Max after work pick up ⏰ & was moaning about all of us being constantly ill (colds upon colds for months and months, so f*cking boring 😑) and she said: "It's cus of sleep deprivation." 👀 Don't know why I hadn't clocked this before. I used to have the indestructible immune system of a cockroach. 💪Sleep deprivation is a language only other parents understand. We don't mean "a bit tired", "a late night", or even "no sleep last night". We mean everyone in the room is wide awake from 12-4am for weeeeeks on end because of a 'sleep regression'. We mean we don't set an alarm anymore because we're ALWAYS woken up earlier than our body wants, by the small bodies that want us. We mean we're woken up half way through EVERY sleep cycle. We mean hourly wakes for YEARS. 😴 Some people say it's not easy to choose to parent this way: breastfeeding on demand, sharing a bed, very much against Western inventions like strict schedules and #sleeptraining, etc. ❤ But don't ever question your choice, mamas. SO many babies we know who have been left to cry it out also have sleep regressions -- and even wake frequently as toddlers. Babies who are formula fed still wake in between every sleep cycle, because joining up these cycles is a developmental stage they haven't reached yet. 👈 Some adults still wake up a million times a night to drink, wee, get comfy and worry about stuff. Spoiler alert: It's normal. We choose #gentleparenting because we want to raise kind, calm, confident, smart, well- balanced, independent, trusting and thoughtful adults who have empathy for other people. It's the only way this world will get better. We need more people who love all people. And fast. 🌎🔥 Don't let anyone tell you that you've chosen to make things harder for yourself. Because we can think beyond a few months or years. What we do now has an impact that lasts FOREVER. Beyond the individual lives of these kids, we are also creating a kinder, more conscious society that can fix the inequality and ecological mess we're in. We have chosen to make life easier for everyone. 👣🌱🌳🌎

Do they sell unadulterated zzzzs on the darkweb yet? I'll get 3 years pls. 🤫😴 If I hear one more person without kids say they're tired.. bruck off with your fancy intact synapses and luxury deep sleep cycles. Severe sleep deprivation: completed it m8. . #sleepadvice #sleepdeprivation #sleepdeprived #sleepregression #sleepy #gentleparenting #attachmentparenting #mindfulparenting #gentleparent #hippiemama #tiredmom #tiredmum #tiredmama #sleepymom #sleepymom #sleepymama #tired #whyamiawake

My eyes are burning. My brain feels broken. My boobs need very badly to be emptied. However kind your employer and however much you love your work, being awake all night with a sick toddler and a teething baby doesn't make getting to the office any easier. Especially when the baby has woken every hour for over a year. I have nothing to say. Can't speak anyway. Just o hay - I feel you working mamas. And full time mama mamas. CEOs of the human race. .
