Running late but still running

TWO hours is how late I was for the last parent's group meeting making it for the last half hour of the session. Lucky for me and baby Lilia one of the other mum's daughters, Matilda, took the first half hour of the session burping-up her feed. Thanks for unknowingly being on our side Matilda, you little champion. 

Before having a baby I was much better at being on time. I had friends with babies and they were often late, not that it bothered me but I never thought I would ever be that late (poor time management skills aside). Do all new mums suffer from this? Is there a cure? 

Bugger! I've just glanced up at the clock and it's 12.28pm. The next parent's group starts in a hour and I still have to:
  • get out of my pjs (yes, one of the many things I love about being a mum is having an excuse to stay in my polka dot pjs until noon or beyond)
  • wake my baby girl and feed her
  • get the pram out of the car and put it back together
  • find the house keys
  • eat something myself or at least a drink of water for now
  • pack the nappy bag ...
This leaves no time to finish this post! Does anyone else live this way? Does getting to places on time with a baby in tow get easier to manage?
