Yeh I remember her saying and she made out it was best for the dog but I think she just couldn’t be bothered with a baby and a dog and she couldn’t give the baby away!i asked this earlier in the thread - apparently he was reacting to Alf moving around more so she has sent him to her parents
But she still moans that he woke her at 4.30....despite the fact she also went to bed at 7pm...so they both got 91/2 hrs sleep! ( she should try to get him back to sleep at that time as he needs 11-12 hrs sleep at that age....but that's another matter)She is so nauseating. The way she’s now raving about how great it is that Alfie now has structured naps like she’s discovered something new (hun we’ve all been doing that with our babies since they were about three months old). Clearly her maternal instincts weren’t quite right when she gave Alfie no routine, no structured naps or bedtime because the poor chap wasn’t getting any quality sleep. But of course Ashley always knows best.
I know all children develop at different rates and we shouldn't compare but surely she must be able to see how her nephew is thriving with a routine and decent sleep!Gee, could that be because he gets enough sleep; enough food and entertainment and a parent who isn’t permanently condescending and anti man to him?

also; absolutely hate it when people don’t sort their kids ears out under hats. How uncomfortable for your child?
She wouldn't last a minute in a real job....imagine her working 12 hr shifts on a wardCan we all demand to know how she spends 4 days working please??! Doing what exactly Ashley? What on earth does she have to do that warrants 32 hours per week?!?! How she can call what she does ‘work’ and put herself in the same bracket as mothers who actually work is BEYOND LAUGHABLE.
Also- as a working mother who works in an office 4 days a week, my day off is just that. Yes I haven’t got my feet up and I am not relaxing, but I am looking after a child I chose to bring into this world, yes it’s exhausting, yes I’m just as tired at the end of the day if not more so, but spending time with my child is definitely not in the same bracket as my career- so no, I would not call it a job!
OMG guys hold the front page - Ashley's little boy is having scheduled naps!
I work part time now my kids in school and the days I am at work is the easiest days. Sitting all day. Sitting in silence if I feel like it. Talking to adults in a normal voice. But I don’t feel validated by someone taking pics of themselves for insta telling me life is so hard, especially a day after saying she hates doing mum stuffThe only thing I can say in defence of any of it is that (as a sty at home mum myself) it is bleeping relentless sometimes - I have a 2 year old and a baby under 1 so probably harder for me than her - and sometimes I wish I could go to work. In the long run, yes I feel privileged to be able to be at home but it is bleeping tiring and I am parenting around the clock, I have very little to no adult conversation and I feel like gauging my eyes out sometimes and locking myself in the dark with headphones in but obviously I don’t do that.
My point is.. it’s hard *work* and my brain is awake almost 24hrs; I can never fall into a deep sleep especially with a toddler who seems to always be sick and breastfeeding a baby. At least those that go to work get a break and yes it is a break so sometimes I feel I deserve a lot more credit than some people that go to an actual job.
lol long post but just my pov. I cannot relate to her specifically though because I love my children dearly and one of the first thoughts I had after giving birth was “what was my life and purpose before this child?!”
I agree totally. God having one child was a breeze compared to two so I don’t know how she finds it so difficult; he seems so placid and easy going.I work part time now my kids in school and the days I am at work is the easiest days.

Then again she does have to write 400 paragraph long captions for every story, post and ad! I wonder where Alf is while she is stripping down to her undies for another post. Being a mum is non stop, we have another school bug here and I know I’m going to be up all night listening to my oldest cough and going to offer him a drinkI agree totally.

I was just making the point that it is just as credible being at home or with your kids all day keeping them occupied than it is sitting in an office all day at a computer.
