Poor O having to have Sainsbury's raspberrys not Waitrose.. as if that's the issue, they probably all come from the same farm. Also did she put earphones in while washing a few pots while he was sat there? Why not sing a song with him while he plays ect

In the video before this one, she says she nearly missed the sainsburys delivery because she had headphones in. I'm not a mother so I don't know if that's normal but I feel I'd want an ear open for my child, never mind the delivery man??

I would put money on Ma’maa writing the CV and cover letter. Apparently Bryony has dyslexia and obviously has never applied to a job before. Imagine being the employer, reading what is essentially ‘no experience and no education’ in the tone of a 70 year old writing on behalf of her wonder child. Sounded like a corporate comms job, maybe content creation for a charity or something. Apparently her skills are in social media… she says as a failing influencer whose only recent success has come from her asexual aristocrat pregnancy story. Does she not realise other applicants would have degrees in this stuff? And years of reputable employment? And networks and connections?
It took me more than six months to get my first interview, let alone get a job. And that was for jobs I was actually qualified to do!
Also oh look, more stuff that Bryony, the strong independent feminist crusader who at the age of 26 still relies on her parents for money and childcare, thinks aren't talked about enough. Every single person I have ever spoken to about job searching said you don't get the first job you apply for. I have known one singular person get the first job they applied for and that was because she had an MA using their data and both she and her MA supervisor had contacts within that organisation. I feel really lucky to have an interview only six months in, I have a lot of friends who took a year or more to find a full time job.
Let's be honest, if Bryony really wanted a job she'd take a part time job in a bar or a shop to keep money flowing while she searched, but Bryony is clearly above that despite the fact that from what I've seen I wouldn't hire her to run a bath, let alone a media campaign.

Also it's ment to be 24 hours with an 11 mth old and 90 % of the video was about her.

Delivery drivers phone if you don't answer after they knock and ring the bell several times. Putting in earphones and doing other things to where you couldn't hear all that, whilst being home alone with a baby, is really concerning. She spends so much of her time ignoring him.

I caved and watched her latest video. I’m disgusted how many times she left a mobile baby completely unsupervised, not even just the headphones but going in other rooms and shutting the door it’s actually terrifying.

Genuine question as I don't have kids - is it normal for Oryn to sleep as much as Bryony says he does?

My kids are much older ( my youngest is 23 and a married man ) but mine didn't sleep that long. So to me it's not normal at all. As another post said it could be a he's bored and not enough interaction from his mum. His world is quite small from what I can see,

Other thoughts on the video:

- Despite not being a parent I freaked out slightly when she said he was playing in the other room and she had gone into her room and CLOSED THE DOOR to prattle on about her own sleep
- She also spelled 'literally' wrong in the screen she put in saying he started standing the next day after she was talking about him not standing yet - I fully get that not everyone is good at spelling but surely when you're publishing a video you'd double check your spellings? I haven't even got to the job part yet but if her CV is full of spelling mistakes that might be why she didn't hear back
- Why is she forcing all this sleep on him it just seems so weird - putting a baby to bed at 6 and then having the whole evening to yourself to watch whole TV series and have a bath is just the opposite of everything I thought living with a baby was like - she's said before that she sleep trains, so does she literally just ignore him from 6 PM to 7 AM the next day?
- She wants to apply for competitive roles related to social media but won't do more than 3 days a week? okay haha
- Now she's talking about how she 'gets by' each month and is on a tight budget every month but still somehow gets to go on 10 holidays a year

And now I've lost interest and I've turned off the video before finishing

The sleep thing is very sus. She has said she’s sleep training which I took to mean cry it out / controlled crying method. She didn’t specify otherwise and it would explain him suddenly ‘sleeping’ through the night.

I know it’s a hard decision to make and often the pros out way the cons but it strikes me as a bizarre and selfish choice for a ‘trauma informed parent’ with a baby whose sleep was otherwise good.

Is he sleeping a lot or is she just leaving him in his cot to get on with it though 🙃

my baby is only a month older and I could never just shove headphones on and ignore him like that!

I actually cannot deal with her.

It's like she's realised the reality of having a baby now. She can't just flit around with the money she makes from her YouTube.

The fact she sends him to nursery has my head in a spin. It's good because it's probably the only socialisation that kid will get, but how can she justify that when she's home all the time??

Also the fact she's going into a really tit job market and has all these tight demands. Nobody is going to take an unskilled 26 year old with a child, ho only wants to work 2 days a week. It's not worth it.

Everyone's already made very good points and I agree with them all, so I'm going to be totally superficial... She only films once a week you'd think she could wash her hair for the occasion.

I noticed that too! I don't have kids and wouldn't want to be a helicopter parent...but that seemed so unsafe. Especially when this 'play area' she mentioned is really just some chairs and bookcases arranged to keep him enclosed. He could put anything in his mouth, he's always after her cords and seems to be at the age where he's trying to pull himself up. I get maybe running quickly to the bathroom but it was clear she was filming and setting up in there for a lot longer than that.

I won’t judge her for sending him to nursery. If she hadn’t, health visitors would’ve intervened to send him when he was two as they do with children from low income / or children failing to thrive with their parents.

I really pity any employer daft enough to take her on. I do think she will struggle to get a job anyway, but can you imagine having her as part of your work team? She'd be phoning in sick every 5 mins, boring everybody silly with every detail of her current ailment, she probably doesn't have enough social skills to bond with new work colleagues or clients. I can't imagine her interviewing well either. She can talk yes, but only about herself.

Most she could do is a stereotypical teenager job where they don’t need qualifications. Places like Burger King, Macdonald's etc. but then, who wants to flip burgers with a women talking about her discharge in a lot of detail lol

The times I have heard "I only turned my back for a second." When going to a baby that has seriously injured themselves.

Finally found the time to watch it because unlike Bryony I don’t get 6 hours baby free me time in the evenings 😂

She was in a completely different room several times and it doesn’t take much for them to get into trouble, she’s already posted before on IG that he’s ‘escaped the play area’
I’m sure it wouldn’t take much for him to pull something on himself all while she’s out of the room or even worse while she has her headphones in and doesn’t hear anything.

Absolutely shocking how much she can just switch off like that. What a terrible mother. Why not have a playpen to put him in for 10mins if she really must clean up the kitchen while he’s awake? I really don’t get how little she seems to care about the safety of her own child.

He seems to be left to play alone so much, and that clip of her playing with him and the ball just felt for show.

I know all babies are different and have different sleep needs but when she’s putting him to bed at 6pm why is she always putting him back to bed at 7am. He’s done sleeping.
