When flamingo's become parents, they start to lose their pink colour and when their children get older, the flamingo’s colour comes back! As parents we can definitely relate!! 

This week, Tegan (David Attenborough) explains why this happens. And, because the feeling of losing colour is relatable to so many mums at Mamamia, we asked a few of them how they got their colours back.

Plus, in Nails and Fails, Leigh taught Alexander how to sort out the washing and Tegan’s prodigal iPad has returned!
