mommy the inventor

i'm not sure about this design. sort of reminds me a bit of a urinal but anyway it brought back a few memories for me of the zillion inventions swirling around in ones head whilst one was whiling the hours away nursing for what seemed like forever at times. and how many of those ideas got lost and fried in a tired nursing mothers brain. although one idea still does stick and i should do something about it. it had something to do with thirst. i was always dying of thirst when feeding and found that it was so diffiuclt to get up either cause the baby was almost asleep finally after an hour into it, it was the middle of the night or one was just too tired to get up. so the idea was similar to what you see those bikers have; some sort of water bottle attached not to your backpack but to your headboard (a bit of a design challenge) with a tube attached to your pillow somehow. so you wouldn't even have to lift your head to take a swig. i must have been awfully tired and thirsty back then to think that one up but you know for some warped reason i think it would sell.

while on the baby trail a couple of places to see near and far.
