This is going to get ugly. I read (granted, on the internets, so - grain shaker of salt and all) that Palin was back at work only a few days after Trig was born.

I read the Kos thread, and I don't buy it. It's so purely speculative that it's ugly to put it out there at this point.I mean, the woman is supposedly breastfeeding. You can't fake that!

Frank -- I can believe that of a 5th pregnancy, though. Whether it would have been better for the child to take a few days off for bonding, well, that's for experts to debate.
I note that not too many years ago our governor had twins, and seemed to keep up pretty well with her work, so it can be done, especially when you can afford nannies and whatnot.

One of my grad school friends took her final exams about a week after her first daughter was born, and was back to teaching about three days after her second kid and I think just two days after her third.

I'd heard to rumors regarding Trig before it hit Kos, but didn't give much credit to them, though her flight from Texas while apparently in labor had made me do the o.0 face this spring. Because, well, that's just crazy and unsafe and made me think WTF?
I wouldn't be shocked if it turns out to be true, but I don't actually care that much. I have many more reasons to twitch at the thought of her close to the presidency!
(Is Seattle the only state in the lower 48 that routinely reports on Alaska politics?)

Nah, but you can induce it reasonably easily if you have a history of breastfeeding, and her second youngest isn't that old.
(The transman who gave birth's wife is/was breastfeeding their child together, having done just that.)

Anybody can put diary on Kos. Personally I wonder if the rumor is Rove head fake. (Starting easily refuted false rumors about his candidates is something Rove has been known to do.) Anyone who goes there thinking it will help the Democrats is being foolish. It is probably not true. And if it is, IOKIFYAR.

Our wings are not tired.
That is pretty far out there. There would be way too many people that would know the truth. I was back to work a week after Bobby. If you can take baby with you there isn't any reason not to assuming an uncomplicated delivery.
eta: surely there is plenty of real stuff to hit her with - get with it people! Also, interesting that there is an excuse for Bush and Cheney to skip the convention. Huh.
