What about women of the Aeta tribe in the Phillipines? They hunted with great success. And a woman that has newly given birth can hunt, she only needs an elder and/or a lactating woman to stay behind to care for the infant.
Also, what would prevent a woman from collecting food while caring for a child, no matter how freshly hatched?

I don't see where you're getting that those marriages were 1:1.
Be careful with universalities. There's always a counter-example.
