Watch: Jacinda Ardern rocks baby Neve as she gives update ahead of return to Parliament

July 29, 2018

Jacinda Ardern has given an update, via a Facebook live video, ahead of her return to Parliament next week from maternity leave.

The Prime Minister can be seen rocking baby Neve Te Aroha Ardern Gayford's cradle as she talks about juggling motherhood with her busy work life running the country.

"We're all doing really well and have absolutely no routine to speak of and I can hear a chorus of parents laughing that you would ever have a routine with a five week old baby.

"Sunday is the day I go through all my papers for the week ahead, with the addition of multi-tasking and doing some rocking as I read papers," Ms Ardern said.

She also showed off a "beautiful hand knitted blanket" sent in as a gift from a member of the public for her newborn daughter.

Ms Ardern seems raring to go saying that the "first week back I will focus on getting straight back into it."

She also said she will be thanking the Acting Prime Minister Winston Peters for his work over the last six weeks.
