Dr Laura GP #3 About the kids she moans and moans, she’s not too happy that she has gall stones!

[tokamosh]

“guys on top of the €1000 coat, I got a €550 hair curler, a €650 air purifier AND a €400 hoover. Now here’s some horrible cardigans REDUCED to €250, I bought 3 from this website! Adding in the 2 kittens for €1800, that brings to €5,000 my spend in the last 3 days”
Generally people with money don’t feel the need to brag like this? Laura you are screaming tacky new money, so obviously after a windfall. It’s certainly not from any kind of hard work.
Who the f here has a spare €5k to drop on shit Christmas week? In 3 days she has spent about 2 months worth of the net median wage in Ireland on absolute shit. Selfish ignorant woman in this economic climate and time of year… there’s people queuing to get help with food for Christmas dinners. You need none of those items you’re bragging about. Maybe next month donate the €5,000 to SVP and redeem yourself?

So she’s off to a plastic surgeon for a consult to have a ‘mummy makeover’
Her c-section scar is awful, she has diastasis which causes her back pain and her nipples are pointing somewhere they shouldn’t - sounds to me like she’s going to have a tummy tuck and a breast reduction. I find it so offensive that she’s called it a mummy makeover, like it or not she’s going to influence women to feel bad about themselves and consider surgery to look better.

Dr Laura, maybe use your platform to make us feel comfortable and happy with our bodies as they are without resorting to drastic, serious surgery so that we don’t look like a mother. Because mothers are clearly old and wonky and ugly, ugh she makes me so mad with her shallow bullshit.

I don't post on these forums but I am incensed at her posts today. The juxtaposition of a post about Gaza followed by sales of a t-shirt, a t-shirt, for 300e. Read the room Laura, you're a disgrace. Spend your money on frivolous crap but do not try to sell on uncared for goods. Or at least give the proceeds to charity for humanitarian aid. You're nothing but a spoiled brat and the people who follow you need to get their heads and conscience' examined.

Hang on a second, are we supposed to think Dr Laura is some sort of martyr for being on a 6.25am train for work?
Laura love, that train time exists because lots of us travel on it EVERYDAY
What a dick

I'm not saying there is anything wrong with women having breast lifts/reductions and/or tummy tucks, but I really object to this "mummy makeover" term that's become the catch all phrase for doing a major MOT on yourself after having children. I already have very large and quite low breasts and I haven't even had kids yet. I've always had in the back of my mind that I may have them reduced and lifted after kids (because they'll just go further south after pregnancy and breastfeeding so why would I do it before ). But that's genuinely been my thinking since I was very young because they are huge and quite inhibiting. It hasn't been influenced by anyone external.

She is in a position where, as a doctor (and I use that term begrudgingly and very loosely) with a public profile, it's really poor form to be coming on projecting this sentiment that women's bodies are awful after babies and require major surgery to rectify them. The language she used was thoughtless, irresponsible and negative. I can imagine a lot of women watching her last night, many of whom could be feeling vulnerable or self conscious about their bodies, hearing her on those stories and feeling like there is something wrong with them.

The reason this woman, though, is doing this is purely because she is just utterly self obsessed and vanity personified. It's like over the last few months in particular that she has become like a woman possessed regarding "improving" her physical self. She's having peels, laser or some other treatment done literally every week. Now she's off to be "fixed" further basically with major surgery. There must be a major void in her life that she keeps trying to fill with this constant tinkering with herself.

It would be more in her line to spend some time working in her own clinic. Also agree with the poster above saying it's a bit odd she's having her Botox done in Dublin?! She won't have the "mummy makeover" this side of Christmas though, unless the plastic surgeon is going to do her a favour by doing it fast and, moreover, that would be insane to have that level of surgery and then go on long haul flights a couple of weeks later.

Apologies for the essay, she just annoys me more and more each day!

 

[caramelsq]

Agree wholeheartedly with all the above. She is delusional. She spends more time on herself than anyone I know.
Does she think she is working when she gets all the peels and facials and botox?
She is a married mother of three very young children, it’s normal to have zero time for yourself, zero time and also, zero money!
She is off to Thailand in a few weeks, had a consultation with a plastic surgeon to renovate her body and she is renovating her big house whilst doing feck all in her clinic.
She is very dislikeable.
Wonder has she appointed someone as the next dogsbody when Victoria flies in leave?
That will be interesting to watch unfold!

 

[caramelsq]

She’s overwhelmed with her “full time” job, but is off to see the plastic surgeon to get her body basically remodelled before she goes off for her holiday to Thailand.
She is the most tone deaf person on Instagram.
I do not understand why anyone would want to go and see her if they follow her on insta.
She is getting her botox done by someone in Dublin too, wouldn’t have someone in her home town to promote for it of course.
I would think that if I went to her she would look at me and think that I need my tummy and tits done too, wouldn’t make me feel good.
Of course when she gets back lash, and she will, she will say she is just keeping it real and being honest.
I know someone in the thread went to her and she was lovely but in all honesty I cannot see it from what she puts out

 

[Tulipsfromamsterdam]

She believes in natural beauty…in so far as she’s appalled at the thoughts of wearing make up. Boob lift, tummy tuck, botox, peels and expensive creams are a-okay though.

‘Christmas drinks with pals’ at 5pm on Christmas eve…with 3 small excited kids at home. She’s such a dick.

 

[Sparagon/1]

God LOVE her getting the 6.25 train
And I can’t believe she’s shaming her work colleagues for sleeping!

 

[ttxx]

She is a clear example of new money. Who in their right mind travels to the US with their three very young children to visit Disney when if she really really wanted to go to Disney she could take the immense travel stress out of it and go to Paris.
She is all for the gram

 

[lessofthat]

She still has horrific bags and under eye area for someone having every under eye treatment under the sun. Also, wow, her parents pretty much raise those children from what I can see. Away in Trump Doonbeg. Still somehow managing to be the dowdiest 40 year old known to man despite spending several thousand a month on Net-a-Porter. It's bizarre!!

This though, tagging trump as she’s chuffed to be sitting at his favourite table. The man is a menace, a misogynist, a racist, a fraudster, who has played a huge part in an uprising against women having a say on what happens to their bodies.
Gross behaviour from a “women’s advocate”. Just to show off. No one is impressed. Unfollowing

 

[SunsOutHunsOut]

She’s so tone deaf, posts about how she’s so organised for Christmas and has everything bought. That on its own is her just bragging because it’s not being organised, that’s just being wealthy. She has basically just did a massive online order.

But to literally post as her next story the poor woman cradling the body of her baby is just beyond……. These people just need to fuck off now at this stage. The last few weeks have cemented for me how irrelevant and unnecessary all of them are!

*she basically did a massive online order

 

[SunsOutHunsOut]

Why is she acting like two year old trainers are a good purchase . To me two years old makes them old and nasty they’re fit for the bin . You can see the leather has cracked and the suede or whatever on the toes Is dirt not ‘distressed’. She’s embarrassing

‘You pay extra for this’
She’s an absolute joke at this stage

 

[nolite]

Thought the same ! Laura,pet you spend 80% of your week away from your family and don’t lift a finger in the clinic .

She spent last Wednesday in Dublin having Botox and a consultation with a plastic surgeon. She was in the hairdresser on Thursday morning.

These kind of things are what normal working women would consider time for themselves, and, as one of them myself, I certainly can't schedule them during my working day (obviously not referring to a necessary medical appointment). She is actually detached from the reality of her situation, which is extremely different to the average woman she's seeking sympathy from. She does eff all work in her clinic and she is away from her family at some sort of skincare company PR event at least once a week. The rest of the time, she's having treatments.

She is delusional if she thinks she's a hard working person in any way, shape or form. Lying on the couch moping and actually putting up stories and a dedicated post about how stressed and overwhelmed she is?! I'm mortified on her behalf. Maybe cancel a few personal appointments and work in your own clinic and you'd feel less overwhelmed.

 

[Winniethewitch]

I’m disgusted that she gives her children unnecessary medication just to make her life easier. The fact she puts it online so willingly makes me think she doesn’t even grasp how wrong it really is. Can you imagine if this was someone from a less affluent background stating they are giving their children medication to make them sleep.

 

[PourSomeSugarOnMe]

Just remember Laura, your kids are kids for a very short time. How you respect and value them now will be how they respect and value you in the future. My mother treated me with absolute contempt and spoke down about me constantly to anyone that would listen. In addition to comparing me negatively to my siblings and cousins. I don’t have a relationship with her now. I have done pretty well for myself since & she cant help now but brag about my achievements even though they were achieved without any of her support or encouragement. Funny that. I have days where I sit and cry and wonder why my mother hated me so much, enough to badmouth me to others, even though i was only a child, her kids age. It affects you.

I have kids now, all under 6 and as much as behaviours can test you ITS NORMAL BEHAVIOUR. ITS DEVELOPMENTALLY APPROPRIATE. Kids should not feel ashamed, their brains are developing & they instinctively aim to trust their caregiver to help them manage big feelings. To me its horrible that this is now on video for Romy potentially to see in time to come. Just my two cents, maybe others will see it differently

 

[caramelsq]

Selling her clothes again. She has NO SHAME.
I cannot understand why people would buy stuff from her. She only wears designer gear, I mean that lot must have cost a fair few grand alone.
