Feathering the empty nest

[Noname123]

I think she’ll tell us eventually. The first few weeks and months are so precious so I understand that she’s wants to keep it all private for now. I will look forward to seeing her back next year!

p.s her babies tootsies are so tiny

 

[Missmarie]

I’m sure the first six months of the babies life will be documented in a new book, just call me an old cynic

Aww the car ride home must have been amazing for them. She looks so happy.

I absolutely agree with you about her influence on baby loss discussion- it was my whole reason for following her in the first place, which is why I really don’t like all of these things creeping in. Just my personal opinion and I have stopped following her because of it.
sorry I wasnt clear- the message actually said ‘this is her friend she’s too stressed and anxious to reply to DMs’ which is why the AD stuff left a bad taste- like that was more of a priority. Btw this person’s message was not asking for baby loss advice. Like I say just my opinion when compared to other baby loss accounts this one definitely feels more ‘infulency’

This is exactly it for me. I follow many other baby loss accounts who have also done some amazing things for charities etc, but as their account grows that remains their main focus. We can all have an opinion here which is the beauty of a forum like this that it allows us to express those even if this thread does feel a little like I’m stuck on Insta.

Having an opinion on the content that she decides to share doesn’t mean I don’t wish her well. Which for the record I do. But I find some of what she says very hypocritical.

Lovely to see her back and to hear they’ve been so happy with little Olivia. Glad she took the time out to enjoy it too, it must have been so wonderful but so difficult at times with all the thoughts of what they missed out on with Teddy.

what I feel so sad is is how much her family have missed out on with the baby during the pandemic!

 

[Right on top of that rose]

Well exactly! She wants to talk about that child.. Out of respect to him she should reconsider her decision!



i think she considers herself a mini celebrity though. I think she enjoys having “fans” and loves to keep them on their toes wanting more...

Ask me his name... but don’t ask me this ones name- bizzare

 

[potatowaffler]

I love her page! She’s definitely struck the balance right with raising awareness and charity work and only does ads for things she clearly enjoys using. I can imagine she gets asked to promote all sorts of things but never feel like it’s being pushed on you.
I was so happy when she announced her pregnancy, I’ve got everything crossed for a safe arrival. I’ve been meaning to read her book but as an anxiety riddled new Mum I haven’t been able to face it but I definitely will soon. Also...her house is dreamy

 

[SilverSpoonNotIncluded]

Most people couldn’t but she can so she did What’s the issue?!

 

[Pinkpantstobed]

How do you actually know she has a friend replying to her DMs?

I can’t imagine how anxious she is with each day of this pregnancy. I know she’s given hope to so many and I hope she gets her happy ending.

 

[CatHun]

Even excluding what’s she’s been through, if she’s buying them herself then what’s the problem? I want one for my son and like others say, it will go in his memory box, I don’t particularly care that it’s the one item that can’t be reused by another baby.
I doubt that she’s concerned currently with what she’ll do about recycling clothes for another baby and is just happy to have this one safely earth side.

 

[SilverSpoonNotIncluded]

Her daughters hair is so gorgeous! I hope they’re all doing okay, a new baby is so intense and crazy and HARD, add in the grief she’s bound to be feeling and the challenge of pregnancy after loss... phew. Her last story

 

[Nellyboy]

I can confirm she done this to me when I reached out when my baby was very sick in the nicu. I just gotta generic copy and paste message about how she doesn’t have time for it and wouldn’t be reading or replying. It actually really took me by surprise and upset more than I thought it ever would. It was really blunt and quite cutting. Never saw her the same after that.

I can confirm she did the same to me, very abrupt and rude actually. She said I can’t get involved with strangers, harsh choice of words. Instagrammers can be quite fake, at the end of the day for the large accounts it’s a business for them, something to make money off

 

[Begborrowsteal]

And just like that....! Yet ANOTHER bump pic for all those who have lost and find bump pics painful to see, on all its ill-fitting-tits-hanging-over-the-top-dungaree glory.

Should she hide this pregnancy?! Jesus.

 

[barrrlohflaughs]

I just want to hear the announcement and know that she’s had her baby and that he or she is safe and sound. I would absolutely love to follow her journey further in terms of motherhood but it’s so so easy for us who have not lost a child to sit here and judge her choice of not wanting to share. That child is going to be the most precious thing to her and who are we to really question her choices on anything regarding that?

This. I 100% respect her decisions...as much as I would love to see a pic of the baby I’m easily sucked in by instagrammers but also know that she doesn’t owe us anything. I just look forward to the day she can say she brought her baby home with her

Little girl home safe & well

 

[MrsHater]

I completely agree with this. I had no problem seeing the pictures myself, i though she looked beaming in every single one but she herself had made a point of saying ‘this will be a safe space, wont be posting baby/bump stuff’ which is where I think some people found it difficult to see them. Of course they could unfollow but they were sort of told they wouldnt need to.
Just like to add I was delighted to hear their news and wish them all the best. I dont need to know the babys name (i happen to think she will share it but maybe once she ‘returns’ to the ‘gram) just glad shes here safely

I totally predicted all of this. Just sneak previews of baby feet and hair and no name.. what a cliffhanger! Perfect way to keep her followers wanting more.

 

[Ilando]

This thread is hilarious

 

[Leita]

is that since she's been back online?

I only noticed this week. I cannot even see her profile! I’ve unfollowed now from my business account too. Can’t be doing with it tbh and I’ve only ever been positive about her. I’m not sure why it’s happened.

 

[Pinkpantstobed]

How do you know this? Xx

Because I received a book myself to proof read. It only arrived last week and we were strictly asked not to share any content online.

 

[GeordieLass]

i don't think she will share anything about the baby other than it's name and absolute full respect for her doing so, i can't begin to imagine what she has been through and that feeling she's going to get when little one is put into her arms
