As a nursing mother, you no longer operate on a standard 24 hour day or a traditional calendar. I don't know the day, date, or time, but I do know exactly how many minutes it is to the next feed in the 3 hour cycle. Chores and errands are now organized into 2 hour blocks which must include travel time.
The time it takes for some chores can also be described by the number of times I can press the restart button on the music in the bouncy chair before my daughter is screaming. Making breakfast, eating, unloading and loading the dishwasher must take less than the 2 renditions of "Old McDonald had a farm"
Add multitasking and project management to the list of "Essential New Mum Skills"
