I received this newsletter the other day & with the permission of Mad Cow I am blogging it to help get the word out there.
It’s Time for a National Response
We don’t normally do this, but this is an issue we felt we needed to really get behind, and its one of the things Real Mums is all about. That is, supporting Mums all over Australia.
PaNDa – the Post and Ante Natal Depression Association have launched a campaign “It’s time for a national response” requesting the Federal Government fun a National peer-to-peer helpline dedicated to providing support for all Australian Mums with antenatal and postnatal depression.
Currently, PaNDa’s model of a highly successful peer-to-peer helpline and suport sevice – where people who have experienced and worked their way back from AND and PND have been trained to assist other Mums – is only available in one Australian state.
Sadly, there are only three Australian states that operate dedicated antenatal and postnatal depression services for women and their families seeking counselling, support and referral.
PND affects 1 in 7 Australian Mums – so there are a lot of women, their families and their kids out there who need us.
We ask that you support PaNDa and Mums all over Australia by visiting the PaNDa websites – http://www.panda.org.au, or downloading this postcard, signing it and sending it off to the Health Minister the Hon. Nicola Roxon and lets get this much needed service available to everyone.

Thank you for your time, and thanking you in advance from Real Mums and on behalf of PaNDa for your amazing support!
Until next time, yours in Mumming,
Mad Cow

With the fabric I used how could it be called anything but Springtime Tote??
I love the colours & am so impressed with the way this bag turned out. Nice & roomy on the inside without being bulky on the outside.
The green works so well I feel. Its a really happy/cheerful colour. What do you think?

Oh how excited am I there is a whole new concept out there & I was asked to be a member of.
I will be supplying the bags that will be packed with items for other fantastic business’s out there & then distributed to the celebrities. I am having a great time selecting fabrics for these bags.

I played around last week & came up with this style of bag, & funnily enough I had the perfect fabric for it out in the sewing stash.
This is a special bag for another reason the recipient is a very special person that I will reveal soon

Do you have any plastic containers that still smell of the last thing they were used to store?? I used to have a couple & no amount of soaking or scrubbing would get rid of the smell. I actually had 2 containers that I no longer used due to the smell but didnt throw out due to the price!!
Well I dont have the problem any more, & I will share with you why. Now when I was first told of the solution I thought “yeah right ” but decided to try it any way & guess what……..it actually worked!!!
OK so what did I do?? I filled the container with water & stuck it in the freezer until frozen solid ( read until I remembered I had stuck it in the back freezer <blush>) Then I tied the large iceblock out onto the lawn so it wouldnt waste all the water & washed my container. NO SMELL!!!!!!! Honest the smell was gone completely.
So drag out your smelly containers & give it a go, let me know how you went!!!
