I don't think influencing is a hard job, bar the nasty messages etc, but I do think in think in this situation she can't win.
When she posts about how hard she has found pregnancy, the majority of the comments are about how no one needs to see this, how it would be so much harder if she had a real job, stop attention seeking.
When she posts about enjoying motherhood and the newborn days - something valid and true to her - she's called smug, told that she's only enjoying it because she has money etc.
She's quite insufferable in lots of ways but I think here can't do anything that will please
honestly, it's far more her hypocritical behaviour that irritates me. she spent months complaining about her severe morning sickness, explaining it in huge, graphic detail on an almost daily basis, with no thought as to the impact that may have on other people who are pregnant or who are trying to get pregnant, and may make them feel anxious/scared etc - yet at the same time, she was ranting about people replying to her questions about motherhood and sharing supposed "horror stories" about lack of sleep etc, saying she was vulnerable and hormonal and only wanted to hear positive stories to reassure her - fine in theory, yet incredibly hypocritical when she had absolutely zero qualms about sharing her own negative experiences with no concern as to how that may affect other people! it's not even as though people were sharing horrific, traumatic birth stories etc, it was literally people sharing their very generic experiences of colic and exhaustion.
nad whilst now, she is highlighting how "perfect" her early experiences of motherhood have been, proving wrong all the "horror stories" and warnings of other parents, Arlo is only four weeks old, and once that honeymoon phase is over, it is more than likely she will feel overwhelmed by a lack of sleep, or arguments with her husband etc, and her "inspirational" posts to reassure anxious women about motherhood etc will soon start aspects that she is struggling with, which other people may interpret as "horror stories" and if anyone dares ask her to only share "positive stories" because they are pregnant and feeling anxious/vulnerable, they will get a response about how she is determined to show the reality of motherhood, the highs and the lows and refuses to turn her IG into a highlight reel and portray motherhood as a fairytale etc, just the usual contradictions and hypocrisy.
