As Baby LJ and I sat contentedly in Clissold Park post feed, a Mum pushing a buggy approaches.
Now, I'm not one of those new Mums who feels that they have joined an exclusive club, but as I smile at the stranger with her baby, I feel a connection. We are both protecting the most precious thing in our lives and on this perfect sunny day in the park, we know that the outside world can hold dangers that we need to guard against. In that smile we have found some unity and the world doesn't feel such a scary place.
