I honestly cannot understand the change in tone of the feathers forum at all. So I completely agree. She’s not a grief councillor, she’s done her best and helped raise thousands and thousands of pounds and that’s the main thing. I couldn’t give a toss If she makes abit of cash from ads, she never comes across as grabby and unlike hinch etc I’m sure she turns lots down.I do get what you mean in terms of the authenticity. However what I will say is that if by her being able to make some money from ads gives her the ability to not work and therefore focus on charitable work that she does, then surely that’s a good thing. From a personal point of view the conversation around babyloss is starting to change and I believe she’s been a huge part of that, so many of us suffer in silence and she’s opening up that dialogue for bereaved parents.
I’m not sure how you’d know it’s a friend replying but I’m not insinuating you are lying.
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.I do get what you mean in terms of the authenticity.

The change in tone suggests lots of people have noticed the same thing. Slowly slowly the ADs have crept in and absolutely no problem that she’s making money but I just think that’s something that a lot of people dont like (its a common theme on Tattle) her having suffered a baby loss doesnt mean people cant feel the same way about an influx of tacky ADs as they do with other peopleI honestly cannot understand the change in tone of the feathers forum at all.

Yes her husband obviously earns a decent wage, but what’s wrong with wanting to earn her own money?
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.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.

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’
Absolutely this!!!!This is exactly it for me.

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.

This. I 100% respect her decisions...as much as I would love to see a pic of the babyI 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?
I was thinking the same but she’s not long since posted a story.I hope all is ok, she’s quiet...
