They’re all the same, totally insufferable. It’s as though they are the first people ever to have a baby.
I find her so unlikable, absolute opposite to Elle’s warm personaI can’t watch her videos because of Jesse, that and she’s shite!
i forgot they had their own line. They’re all carbon copies of each other it makes me sickor maybe a maternity/kids clothes with james and carys line? Dunno what it’s called
100% agree. I’m glad I’m not the only one who felt it was forced, especially with the lack of tears when she’s “crying”, as she first finds out. Maybe I’m a cynic, but the whole thing just didn’t feel right.Placing a non skippable ad right before the reaction just proves how this is all about making money. I found the reaction very forced, no tears, lots of glances at the camera. It’s really cringy. The TTC thing is ridiculous, she got pregnant immediately.
Super happy for her but disappointed in the way she’s going down the Carys route with content overload on pregnancy and non existent TTC. I would have thought she would have seen the negative reaction from Carys and done it differently.
I am wondering how much of it is to do with age as well - she has only just turned 24, and being 23 was very wrapped up in taking care of her mum - I know when I was 23/24 I wouldn't have had the emotional maturity or life experiences to consider other people's fertility journeys etc. That sort of thing just comes with age and life experience I think.I don't usually comment, I'm usually just a reader of these threads but as somebody who has been trying for 22 months I must say I really didn't take offence to anything Elle said in her video. She didn't say it was a struggle, she was just worried it would be because she didn't ovulate the first month but she also said she didn't know how her body would react after being on birth control for 10 years and having a thyroid issue, which I think is a fair comment and concern to have. She also didn't call it a journey, she said she'll tell her "TCC story". I re-watched the start and there is not an ad before the reveal either.
I think in comparison to Carys, she was much more realistic and mature and I don't think she's doing it for money, she seemed genuinely happy. I still think con is an absolute wet wipe though so I'm interested to see how he'll be as a dad.
Not to be pedantic, but she’s just turned 25, in December.I am wondering how much of it is to do with age as well - she has only just turned 24, and being 23 was very wrapped up in taking care of her mum - I know when I was 23/24 I wouldn't have had the emotional maturity or life experiences to consider other people's fertility journeys etc. That sort of thing just comes with age and life experience I think.
I agree using the ttc journey phrase is not right but hoping she doesn't bang in about it like carysHow can she say a TTC ‘journey’ she come off the pill August and was pregnant November, that’s a piss take on people who take years
That's a good point, I forget how young all these influencers are and because they have a lot of money, they've not had the same life experience as the average Joe, they've had it very easy for the most part and their struggles aren't the average persons struggles.I am wondering how much of it is to do with age as well - she has only just turned 24, and being 23 was very wrapped up in taking care of her mum - I know when I was 23/24 I wouldn't have had the emotional maturity or life experiences to consider other people's fertility journeys etc. That sort of thing just comes with age and life experience I think.
Yeah I thought this too, I can't imagine coming off the pill then immediately becoming obsessed with tracking ovulation, telling my friends I'm ovulating, buying and taking tests regularly. It's like it's a race for them to get it done ASAP, suppose if you've got Conman flopping around on top of you you want in and out quicklyCan’t help but feel this vid is slightly tone deaf to people with real ttc struggles. I get that she’d been on the pill for years & has Thyroid issues but not sure why you’d jump right in with Ovulation monitors etc?! She’s just turned 25. And to have bought 30 odd pregnancy tests right out the gateMaybe I’m just old fashioned. I didn’t get ovulation kits till well over a year & a half in,next came stupid thermometers etc year 3 I’m buying crystals off healers to put under my bed & praying to every god & dead relative under the sun,10 years on & if I’m late I don’t even bother doing a test anymore cause there’s only so much sorrow a person can take. So maybe I’m just sensitive about the subject but don’t even think she should have used the word ‘ttc’ at all.
I was sat feeling abit sorry for myself but you’ve just made me spit my tea out laughing so thank youYeah I thought this too, I can't imagine coming off the pill then immediately becoming obsessed with tracking ovulation, telling my friends I'm ovulating, buying and taking tests regularly.

Plus it gives her a good excuse for a few years, “no con, I’m tired from being pregnant”. “No con, I’m tired from the newborn”. “No con, I’m tired from the toddler.”Yeah I thought this too, I can't imagine coming off the pill then immediately becoming obsessed with tracking ovulation, telling my friends I'm ovulating, buying and taking tests regularly.
