Didn't get paternity leave?! What planet (or century) does she live on (in)?! Of course it's important for the FATHER to bond with THEIR child! My husband got 2 weeks paternity for both our boys & he hated going back to work. Said it wasn't long enough etc.

What is her issue with Tommy? Everything is a dig at him!

She must be raging that she had a boy - how can she continue her man-hating narrative when she's raising one?!
But also…it’s not paternity leave, it’s a holiday! Nothing to stop Tommy taking annual leave in the UK to spend time with Alf. Also agree that she’s making out Tommy does nothing when he does loads and was getting Alf ready for the day before he went to work so she could get ready and sit around with her Dyson air wrap making pouty videos

But she's soooo busy working, don't you know!
Give me a break...prancing in front of a couple of turntables wearing headphones , pretending to mix tracks is not exactly taxing! ...she needs a dose of reality when it comes to being a working mother, with no partner to help and having to work long days as well as having to look after child/ housework etc....she's an entitled, self absorbed madam
When Alf stops breastfeeding, she'll find something else to moan about

Wow, I missed this initially…he’s 10 months, why is he only just now trying fish and chicken. And enough with the purées, babies need to learn to chew stuff (not just watermelon!)…why is she surprised he wants stuff in pieces he can hold. That’s so normal for his age!
His weaning is coming along because someone else is doing the cooking. No wonder he wants to breastfeed all the time, kid must be starving!

She's so obsessed with herself that she can't see what Alf's needs are in respect of sleep, nourishment and play and she's also going to be in for a shock when Alf starts moving about more and climbing over everything

I commented before I find her lack of sharing weaning a bit odd
I’m wondering if she just hasn’t really bothered? She is definitely the type to be showing off look how much a good eater my baby is and he eats everything we give him! etc etc so definitely odd nothings really been shared apart from when they started she blended some purées then nothing since 🤷‍♀️

yeah I think you’re right, she’s basically not been arsed. I think she commented once about how messy it was and that had put her off. Perhaps being with Tommy’s family has given her a kick up the bum as maybe they’ve questioned his lack of eating?

I doubt she wanted to wean him off the boobs as she wouldn’t have the excuse to show them off on the gram!

I’m interested to see how things are when they return home. It seems since they’ve been on holiday motherhood has been great. All of a sudden, Alf is sleeping better, he’s eating better and amazingly they are able to leave him at a crèche without him needed her breasts constantly. Remarkable.

I find it quite odd that apparently they've gone from only leaving him for an hour at his parent's house to leaving him in a creche abroad for several hours?

Oh my god! How has she gone from not being able to ‘work… I say that term very loosely…..to bringing Tommy and Alf to every event ….I mean dragging… to now leaving him in a crèche with people he does not know

This holiday has done wonders for them!! Let’s hope she continues to give Alf the same life when he gets home!! I see he can now stand in that travel cot so the tiny one she has at home will be dangerous. If she cleared his room of the disco lights and fed him 3 meals with milk throughout the day, he won’t be waking up every 30 mins during the night!! Simple really and you’d think little miss know it all would know this 🙄🙄

Things do seem a lot better while they’ve been away sometimes a change of scenery does everyone good. I have to say that this holiday to Marius is not exactly child centred. Instead it seems to be centred on her horse riding , hiking mountains, snorkelling, making sure she catches the sunsets and not putting baby to bed, posting stories at the exact angle to get her t*ts in view. If this is what she needed to help her mental health I do hope it’s worked.

However to try and sugar coat it as child friendly and baby centred doesn’t sit well. There’s the horrible Covid tests he had to do, an extremely long flight to contend with, the heat, the mosquitos and there doesn’t even appear to be pictures of him in a baby pool , seeing any child friendly entertainment or even building a sandcastle 🤷‍♀️

It’s so bizarre she keeps mentioning Tommy and Alf bonding more on this holiday. making it sound like he hasn’t bonded with the baby yet. I don’t know what the situation is but personally I find this really sad of her to do. He works full time. I’m sure he feels bad enough that he has to leave his child every day for hours on end without his partner pointing out something he probably secretly worried about.
My husband works full time and he absolutely hates the fact he isn’t with our child as much as he would want and therefore of course there is a naturally different bond between mother and father, but to shine light on this is savage to me.

I think she resents that the main bulk of the daily care falls on her and likes to dig whenever she can. Poor guy!

It’s weird though because they always seemed to have the better bond. She always said he’s the only one that Alf will laugh for!

I agree. I find everything she says has a cutting dig under it, even her compliments of Tommy are backhanded and laced with pettiness where she HAS to compliment herself after saying something nice about him. It honestly comes across so egotistical or almost like she doesn’t even like Tommy and Alf is just her baby. I can understand being resentful that Tommy has more free time than her but she even polices his free time and all his social media posts! Her lack of free time/socialising is a rod she created for her own back, maybe to play the martyr.

This holiday has shown that Alf isn’t half as clingy as she’s made him out to be. The same woman that dragged the baby to work events at all hours of the night left him for several hours in a crèche in a foreign country? I’m not dissing the use of a crèche but why couldn’t she have left Alf at home with his father or family to go and do these things??

She even makes a dig out of the fact Alf is saying da da first! ...it's well known in child development/ psychology that babies make this sound first as it's easier for them to form this sound in their mouths...mum/ mmm sound comes much later ....she really has to make it out as though she's hard done by
