I don't like to comment on people's appearances or body shame on Tattle but my god she's so ugly with all the filler!All her smug, condescending preening and this is the quality of work she has done to her face. She really highlights her worst features with her Botox, filler and those brows
Agree. I feel like she’s approached pregnancy and parenting like if you spend the most amount of money you are better placed than everyone else. It’s a shit message to send to first time / impressionable would be mums or women in her demo. I just can’t take her seriously with how much filler she’s pumped into her cheeks (I’m taking an appearance dig because fillers aren’t permanent), and how she’s tried to peg herself as so experienced when her baby probably hasn’t gone through any sleep regression yet. All of her pregnancy and bf experience is so OTT. I for one, don’t know why you would pump so early when you’re breastfeeding - it will keep your supply low and you’ll end up formula feeding anyway. She also hasn’t mentioned anything about the changes in relationship, mood, adjustment to this enormous responsibility… it just sounds like crass consumerism - buy and spend heaps so you can be a good parent. Fuck off. Come back to us in a few years. I doubt also returning to work so early is good for your mental state - not a flex. Her messaging is so problematic.People are haaaating her baby content. It all seems like some weird humble brag about how wealthy she is.
I came on for this. What’s it in reference to?The back pedal begins…

This is not correct. Pumping doesn't reduce your supply it does the opposite. It's not recommended to pump before 6 weeks (obviously for some parents it necessary due to latch issues, NICU/SC etc) as it can create an oversupply. The more milk you remove the more your body produces whether it's baby removing milk or a pump. Babies are more efficient at removing milk so what you pump doesn't reflect on your supply necessarilyAgree.

Who the fuck says that? a “good quality baby”?The back pedal begins…

I agree - sorry I was probably wording it clunkily - I feel her feeding regime - like her approach to motherhood so far - seems to be so over complicated. Bf, PLUS pumping (with expensive pump) PLUS formula feeding while trying to get back to work ASAP looks like a recipe for severe PPD if you ask me. I don’t think she’s particularly honest about much apart from how much she spends.This is not correct. Pumping doesn't reduce your supply it does the opposite.

Since when is it now unreasonable to want your baby to be healthy? It doesn't mean that you wouldn't love them less or think they're "tainted". Don't we all want what's best for our kids? What's next, saying we just want them to be happy is wrong?Who the fuck says that? a “good quality baby”?
It’s like when people say “i just want a healthy baby”. What, one that’s not “tainted” by disability or medical complexities? You can almost overlook the healthy baby comments… I personally try not to take it to heart.
But to say “good quality baby”!?!?! Nah. Fuck off. Literally no context or interpretation where that is in any way acceptable. And don’t hide behind your “pregnancy loss”. You should know better then.
Oh that’s just hideous.saying that she took prenatal vitamins to get a 'good quality baby' which is just a foul thing to say honestly. It really upset me.
I absolutely see this point of view and tend to agree with you but I think from the other side it comes from having a disabled child (I don’t have kids with special needs but siblings) and the sympathy that comes with that diagnosis and the friendships that can be lost because it’s “too hard” and all the tests that are done in pregnancy with the option to abort because of it (ie Down syndrome) it can feel like a slap in the face and a constant battle that if you’re thick in it a “healthy” baby can mean a neurotypical baby.Since when is it now unreasonable to want your baby to be healthy?

Sorry Im not very concise but I see both points of view!
also that apology was horse shit by VD I think
I think it’s different when you have a platform. Of course everyone wishes for good health for their family and loved ones but when speaking on a platform it’s a kick in the guts for anyone who has a child with additional needs. In the same way that you would’nt go on about worrying about a miscarriage in front of someone who has suffered one. It’s just being thoughtful.Since when is it now unreasonable to want your baby to be healthy? It doesn't mean that you wouldn't love them less or think they're "tainted".

Fuck she’s weird lookingOld mate Victoria Devine/Vicky D has really put her foot in it. She's still not done talking about her pregnancy. She says she started "prenatals" aka prenatal vitamins "at least 12 months before trying" in order to get a "good quality baby".
First of all, her O&G doctor is absolutely getting a kickback from elevit or some shit because taking prenatal vitamins for a year before trying sounds excessive but the wording of "good quality baby" is just soooo icky.
Interesting that she says this is a hidden cost of childbirth because this is not birth-related, rather pregnancy related.
Exactly this. Parenting when you didn’t get the “healthy baby” and people with platforms who spin this shit is yuck. I’d bet she’s never met or engaged with a disabled person or probably just looks at us parenting severely disabled kids with pity. Lol. its not “wrong” to want them to be “healthy or happy” but we definitely didn’t want them to live lives full of trauma and pain and disability and then have some holier than thou spoiled privileged fucking idiot sprouting about her magic vitamins to give her a “good quality baby”I think it’s different when you have a platform.

Thank you, fellow peaOh that’s just hideous.
Also agree with the comments about how ‘as long as it’s healthy’ is quite offensive.
If you have no experience with children with additional needs or complex births and pregnancies (VD I’m talking to you), I’d highly recommend some early episodes of ‘too peas in a pod’ podcast. ‘Too’ not ‘two’. Two mums of multiples who have additional needs. They rant about this kind of BS language. Another one is ‘you only get what you are able to cope with’.
Honestly, VD is insufferable as a first time mum. Perfect baby, perfect pregnancy because she did everything ‘right’. Bleugh.
She looks like a completely different person without makeup and lashes on. There was a photo of her someone posted when she was pregnant and I honestly didn’t recognise her.Fuck she’s weird looking
