Let me guess next “content”: she’ll post about how pregnancy ruined her body but stress helped her return to her pre-pregnancy weight super fast. How strong women are to sustain body changes during pregnancy even when they have always been “naturally skinny”. How nice is to be back on apple sauce diet + occasional cookie for comfort. How she made some new Miranda merch.

All while her preemies are in NICU fighting for their lives:/
I’m predicting an infected c-section scar and using it as an excuse to not do anything around the house again (whether she actually has one or not)

The second her waters broke is when she should have went straight to hospital. Absolute idiot.

Right. Like she couldn’t comprehend the difference between water broken at term vs 2 months premature footling breech fetus.

The worst is some of her “fans” can copy behaviors like hers and put lives at risk. She should take this video down even just for that reason.

I just watched her newest vlog and the way she said her babies weren't with her and were in boxes really triggered me, I know that's the shape of the incubators but the image that came in my head was not that, maybe that's on me but it still unsettled me

Some of the comments just show her type of following "Isn't it funny she's recreating Flynns birth with her straightening her hair"
No! It isn't funny! Those babies lives are at risk!

Same. How bleeping stupid do you have to be to say that, when NICU babies could actually end up in those kind of boxes? It seems she really doesn't grasp any of this.

It's not like she was full term, these were premature twins. Trying to show off to the camera by straightening her hair and laughing about it is just a blatant disregard for safety. Maybe she was taking things more seriously off camera but there seems to be such a lack of concern. Even before the birth, when she was talking about them being potentially early (I didn't watch every single vlog so I could've missed it) I don't remember her ever saying anything along the lines of wanting them to stay in as long as possible to make sure they're safe, being nervous about the risks etc.

She’s uploaded another vlog of the twins’ birth. Ironic she’s pumping at the beginning of the video because she is absolutely milking it.

I’m happy the babies were delivered safely and everything is crossed they are home soon, but the fact the priority was to make sure her hair was nice for the YouTube content and insta photos to follow instead the fact she was in labour with premature twins, and didn’t she say one was breach, makes me feel sick. Colleen summed up in a nutshell. Shameful 😔

I think by the end, both of them were breech. I did talk to my retired midwife mother about the fact that Colleens babies have been born at 32 weeks and she said that in twin births 32 weekers are more likely to survive than 35 weekers. She said it’s not completely understood why, but when born at 35 weeks twins are just more likely to go downhill. To be born at 32 weeks they actually are more likely to pull through and according to my mum Colleens twins weights are really healthy considering.
I am still shocked at Colleen stopping to do her hair and makeup when she knew how high risk she was. I haven’t watched the newest video yet so I don’t know if she has talked about what was going through her mind yet.

She mentioned the doctor was concerned the foot might come out (ie not even regular breech where butt comes first, but footling breech). If that happens and the cord is prolapsed like in her case, it’s pretty much a guaranteed death for the baby because there is not enough space in the cervical canal, blood supply to the baby’s brain is stopped and the rest is clear. The fact she couldn’t comprehend that is beyond disturbing, especially when she was seeing doctors and nurses pretty much daily.
I get she’s not the brightest person in the room but her lack of comprehension is beyond belief.
Hopefully she has someone to take care of her babies- she has proven completely incapable to care for them (and they’ll need long, intense care considering how early they are) with her birth experience.

it's not that she has good luck, but why does everything end up working out for her? there are women who were super careful and still miscarried.

I think that Colleen and Erik will hire a live in nanny. I don't think they can do this alone and if they can afford to then they should for the sake of their marriage

She thought it was hilarious that she was straightening her hair when the doctor called. That is not funny. In a situation like that you do not need the gift of hindsight to know it was an emergency
I don’t understand why she bothered doing her hair when she previously said they weren’t even gonna film the birth. Shows she’s full of mit

She has a terrible diet, piss poor hygiene and a house full of bugs/nasty cat hair so frankly that scar is bound to get infected

You could see how excited she was to film and recreate her first birth video. She was nagging Erik to film in the car and it was clear he'd already said no previously because he wants to be in the moment but as she had a camera shoved in his face he couldn't say no

Yeah pretty much good luck but also princessy lifestyle. She’s so self absorbed it’s beyond belief. Even now she’s talking about herself, when her newborn daughter is literally unable to breathe on her own, she’s nagging about how horrible it is that she wasn’t allowed to eat her cheeseburger. Just wow.

I am betting the nanny will be her mother- unpaid of course :(

Im still not positive did she and Erik really married legally, I won’t be surprisedthey didn’t and one sunny day he just walks away.

It’s clear he loves his kids but taking care of kids in the NICU would have put a stress even ona heathy relationship (which they clearly don’t have), so I highly doubt their “relationship” will go past 2022.

I worry he can't walk away, even if he wants to. She will twist the events and blame him, no matter the truth of the situation. Her fans will turn on him and drag his name through the mud. :(

Didn’t Rachel officiate their wedding? Rachel can legally do it, she was officiant for Teeny and Simons wedding years ago. But there would have been other legal stuff Colleen and Erik would have had to do as well, so even if Rachel did do it legally, if no paperwork was formally signed and handed in to officials its not a real wedding.
