Every fortnight I have the pleasure of doing a radio show, The Mum’s Group, on 5AA with the extremely talented Amity Dry. Along with our co-hosts Belinda Heggen and Lucy Cornes we chat about anything from breastfeeding, our complete lack of craft ability to the need for better access to childcare. It truly is a mixed bag and it’s so much fun.
When I first encountered Amity on Twitter I thought she was a gorgeous Adelaide-identity who sang nice tunes and was handy with a paint brush, but very quickly I realised there was much more to her. She is a fabulous writer, stunning singer, great mother, kind and generous soul who is accomplished in the world of cabaret and is very savvy. Yes, she appeared on reality tv and yes, she sang the Lighthouse (a beautiful song by the way), yes, she’s blonde and has a vivacious smile, but far out she’s also a hard working, brainy, creative, gutsy woman. Can you tell I have a bit of a crush on her? I love women who work hard to achieve their dreams.
Anyway, since Phil and Amity’s thrilling, much-deserved, win of the recent The Block All Stars competition even more people throughout Australia have gotten to know what a good person Amity is – full of integrity and kind intentions. She hasn’t stopped to breathe since completing the Block and is now in the thick of rehearsals for the stage show she wrote and stars in – “Mother, Wife and the Complicated Life”. She’s about to embark on her first national tour. I am so proud of her.
And guess what – she has given me two double passes to giveaway to some lucky bigwords’ readers. Yep, that’s right – two double passes to either her Adelaide, Melbourne or Sydney shows. For details of dates click on this link – http://www.motherwifemusical.com. I’ve seen the show and it’s a brilliant look at motherhood, marriage, divorce and life. I cried. I laughed. I recommended it to all the women in my life. It’s definitely a fun night out.
My favourite songs from the show include one about when you know the honeymoon is over. You know, like when your husband leaves the cups next to the dishwasher rather than inside it. And this one about the shitty parts of being pregnant, like not being able to see your lady garden.
So, to be in with a chance I’d love for you to go to both Amity Dry’s Mother, Wife and the Complicated Life Facebook Page and Bianca Wordley’s Facebook Page and like them.
Then leave a comment here (with a way to contact you) about a weird thing that happened to you when you were pregnant or funny things you or your partner do in front of each other that make you realise the honeymoon is over. You know like sitting on the toilet doing a poo, while discussing your upcoming tax bill with your husband and brushing your child’s hair for school. My “friend” does that.
I’ll announce the winners next Friday, April 5. So be sure to check back here. Good luck!

Taking off my clothes to have a shower. My husband picks up my panties with his two fingers and says, “Eeek, crusty panties!”
He does that to tease me 😉
Um… well, this is awkward because I’m 22 and single, so I have neither a husband or children. But I love, love, love Amity- have ever since she and Phil were first on The Block in season 1. And I’m dying to see her musical in Sydney but as I’m currently unemployed, winning tickets is my only chance.
So, instead I thought I could just tell one of the many stories of weird things that happened to my mum when she was pregnant- I’ve pretty much heard them all. My favourite is the time that she lost her keys, couldn’t find them ANYWHERE, and then my dad found them… in the fridge. Mum has no memory of even going into the kitchen, so it’s both weird and hilarious. Well, maybe it’s only weird to the childless, but it’s hilarious to all!
When i was pregnant with my first child, I was so irrational and sick of my husband’s wise cracks about “not being ill, just pregnant” that one day while making a roast dinner, I gave him a black eye with a sweet potato. I just cracked and let fly with that orange tattie so hard it literally gave him a massive shiner. Then I wept like a small child and told him I would understand if he left me. Thank god he didn’t but he still likes to dine out on that story. “You’ll never guess what my crazy pregnant wife did once, mate!”

I have a long Honeymoon Is Over story which we still mention now and then, and still makes us laugh.
I don’t know if you remember the comedy sketch show Fast Forward which ran from late 80s to early 90s, (we married in 1987, showing my age here) but they had a regular sketch which I think was called Spot The Married Couple. There was one where a loving couple were drinking cocktails with fancy umbrellas, being all romantic and saying “I love you”, while the other couple were wrestling and arguing because the man had gotten one of the umbrellas stuck up his nose and the woman was trying to get it out. I said “Lord, that would be us”.
Another night’s sketch showed the inside of bathroom cabinets; one with perfume, after shave, condoms and lubricants, all very sexy things, and the other with medications, pain relief, hair dye, etc, all the very unsexy stuff. We laughed and said “Yep, we’re getting there.”
The epiphany sketch for us was the couples watching tv. The young loving ones were huddled up together, feeding each other, kissing, barely watching tv. The married couple were on separate sofas, paying no attention to each other, he burped then cocked his leg and farted, then she (I think Magda Szubanski) did the same.
Hubby and I looked at each other, him on his sofa and me on mine, he cocked his leg and farted, and I did the same, and we were in hysterics for the next half hour, and ever since.
Honeymoon over.

after many hours of labour and by that point having no shame, calling my partner over to look at the gross mucus plug that I just lost. Definitely no illusions after childbirth. 🙂 I would LOVE to see Amity’s show, to remind myself and have a laugh about what I have gotten myself into again (baby #2!!) and have a nice trip away for shopping and fun before #2 arrives!!

I noticed an advertisement for” proenhance”.
One answer to this is the time-consuming part. They do
allow the wine to age old wine. Free snacks and discounts help hungry employees be less hungry and that it exploits and
widens racial distrust — though those are certainly big problems.

I’m impressed, I must say. Seldom do I encounter a blog that’s equally educative and amusing, and let me tell you, you have hit the nail on the head.
The issue is something which too few people are speaking intelligently
about. I am very happy I stumbled across this in
my search for something relating to this.

My husband and I have been known to have a conversation via Facebook messages while sitting next to each other on the couch with our iPads. Honeymoon. Over.
My mind is stuck on my most recent labour (it was much more eventful than the pregnancy) and my inadvertent drug-free delivery where I said things I thought only women in TV and movies said like, “I can’t” followed by a crying, “I’m going to break” and then a brilliant, “Push her back in!” before I realised that was not an option and just pushed that final time (with a resounding expletive for good measure). I’m oh-so-glad I’m not the type to have video cameras recording things for posterity – my memory of events embarrasses me enough 🙂
