The 37-year-old mum-of-one took to Instagram to share a selfie that featured a questionable dark patch on her denim shirt.
“I paired this fantastic @cereslife tencil shirt with leggings, white sneakers and pee,” she captioned the post.
Edwina’s followers related to her post and praised the mum for her humorous take on a regular parenting occurrence.
“I think it works. Gives it that ‘little something extra’,”one penned.
“Could be worse …. could be poop or spew,” mused another.
Even her husband Neil Varcoe cheekily commented: “Looks hot!” to which Edwina replied, “It was warm.”
Edwina gave a sweet update on her baby daughter in July when she turned seven months old.
“Proud owner of two front teeth and a vice-like grip,” the mum-of-one wrote in her caption.
“Always laughing and now squealing, a sound somewhere between a galah and a tiny orange strangled cat. Going back to work has been a challenge. I have loved having something ‘other’ in the day but miss our mornings.”
She added: “Thankfully we have years of adventures ahead.”
Edwina and Neil welcomed their daughter in December 2019, right in the middle of Australia’s bushfire crisis. But at the time, Edwina admitted she found it “really comforting that, when the world is chaotic outside, the day to day of being a mum doesn’t change.”
“There are days when it’s tough or it’s isolating and you’re not quite sure what you’re doing – and I’m sure that will continue for many years to come.”
The Sunrise presenter also admitted she found the first few weeks “completely intense” and that she was underprepared for motherhood.
“I found the whole thing very overwhelming. But then… I just feel like I sorted it out a bit.”
“And you have this innate sense that what you’re doing must be right because she’s happy, she’s healthy and she’s thriving. And that’s a nice sense of confidence to have.”
