Australian swimmer Libby Trickett shares very relatable mum moment in hilarious new video
Australian swimming great Libby Trickett posted a new video on Instagram that has struck a chord with parents and grandparents. The mum-of-five shared a clip of herself on Thursday driving while the nursery rhyme Five Little Ducks is playing. The four-time Olympic gold medallist captioned the funny footage, 'POV: This is now the theme song of your life.' The video features the remixed version of Five Little Ducks by The Wiggles and DJ and producer Lenny Pearce. Pearce — twin brother of Purple Wiggle John Pearce — has found fame for remixing classic children's songs into techno tunes. He collaborated with The Wiggles on an EDM (electronic dance music) remix album titled The Wiggles Sound System: Rave of Innocence. Trickett also captioned the post, 'On. Repeat.' with a list of hilarious hashtags including #quackquackquackquack #wiggleshavegonefulldoofdoof. Parents and grandparents left comments revealing they too could relate to the realities of parenting, which comes with having to listen to their child's favourite song on repeat! 'Anything for peace in the car,' one person said. 'Oh I remember those days!! We had to play The Wiggles and so many times I would get all the way home, after dropping them at kindy, before I even realised I was still listening to them!,' another shared. 'It's a vibe,' one followed added. Trickett and her husband, Luke, welcomed their fifth child, Archie, on April 3. The couple are already parents to Poppy, 9, Edwina, 7, Bronte, 5, and Alfred, 1. After the birth of baby number five, Trickett said: 'The shape of our family is now complete.' Alongside clips from her Sportish podcast, Trickett's social media is filled with regular updates of her life with her growing family. On Wednesday, Trickett shared an open letter about motherhood for World Breastfeeding Week. 'Archie is super lucky that he's baby number five and my boob is basically just a tap that he doesn't have to do much for as he's got a weak little suck. But it works for us right now,' Trickett shared, honestly. 'All that is to say, that overall, breastfeeding can be really challenging. It can be really weird, and it can be special. All of those things are true. 'Whatever the journey looks like for you is going to be different to others. I used to feel bad that I wasn't just so in love with breastfeeding, but now I know that it doesn't actually matter. 'I'm doing it in the way that works for me and works for the team mate/baby I have because as well, each team is different.'I don't know how much longer we'll do it for, I'm proud of what my body is doing to build my child AND I also know that ultimately when our time is done, fed is best.'
