Have you had a stillbirth?

I have, and I will also be ordering a cake for my son's first birthday.

Edited to say: In fact, the counselling and support services I have received suggest it as a way to honour your baby's birthdays and remember their life.

Yes, we have been encouraged to mark our daughters birthday that's coming up soon, she was stillborn at full term last year. We'll be getting a cake and releasing some pink balloons. I wouldn't be able to not mark it in some way or I would feel that I was pretending she never existed (obviously that's just my feelings, not everyone is the same but it's definitely not just a Gemma thing ).

Feel a bit choked up reading it, I really do hope it’s all positive in the end… 🩵

Glad to hear the baby has arrived safely, not sure on the name myself but not my kid not my problem

I love the name Ted.

How many weeks was she? 36?

Yeah just under 37 weeks I believe! Going by her Instagram he was due on 14/10 so she would had been 37 weeks this Saturday

Did anyone see the post about pretending her name is Penelope in Starbucks? I read a comment saying they would also use the name Penelope to honour her. Bonkers

Omg yes I saw that too. Some bint wanting to start a movement getting Penelope named on their cups? How fucking weird are these people?

She is one of those people that thinks the world revolves around her. If someone doesn’t arse lick her or know everything about her she thinks they’re being ‘mean’ to her

 

[NosyNorahh]

Exactly and it’s something she will always have to talk about as she meets new people along the way. I just think she needs help coping with it as she’s very weak at the moment. It’s not a healthy mindset to have when raising her boy.

She actively got pregnant with her second Child so, so quickly after losing her first that I’m not surprised how fragile she is tbh.

I think she believes that because she’s been through a tragic event that people shouldn’t dare have unfavourable opinions of her and the fact that many do genuinely blows her tiny little mind.

Baby still cooking, I’m surprised I’d presumed she’d had him already. 32, almost 33 weeks is a good gestation for a premie

 

[Doingitforthegramhuntake2]

Oh my god, why does she say ‘I just see these’ why is she so illiterate? Why do these instacunts not know how to speak properly?

 

[aliceband]

no she’s not posted anything, I know them personally

I like how she posts an update each time you update us first

 

[Mabels1986]

Confused so one minute shes out xmas shopping with Ted, the next hes in hospital and shes telling people to stay away as his RSV has got worse all in the same day

 

[NosyNorahh]

no she’s not posted anything, I know them personally

Love that you know them personally yet you’re here. It speaks volumes.

 

[NosyNorahh]

I doubt it, I think she will post straight away

I reckon she’ll wait for almost a week after he’s born then we’ll get the standard pic of either hands, feet or an ear that all the celebs do. Along with name and birth weight etc.

 

[Mumswhoexpose]

She 100% reads here. She posts the baby a lot on her profile page, I won’t post a picture of him as i think it goes against rules. He looks a lot like Jake. rumour has it she’s struggling a lot though more with the guilt and grief she’s still feeling and it’s just been heightened since Ted arrived.

 

[PinkFigs]

I wish her all the best with the baby but she acts as though the whole world revolves around her.

 

[Heyguysswipeup]

Completely off topic but i giggle when I think that her names is GemmaPell lol, I must be late to that party
Wishing her a healthy rest of her pregnancy though!

Thanks for the explanation Gemma

She constantly complains , she is such a drama queen you d just know she is seriously hard work

 

[NosyNorahh]

Rather uncalled for comments on a local page! Didn’t even realise it was her until my sister sent me the screenshot of the post in her local area

Woah what was this in regards to?

The absolute state of them all in this photo! Mother in law in her ill fitting orange monstrosity, all three Son’s ranging from obese to morbidly obese in un ironed suits. Lauren, cancer faker, lazy arse gastric sleeve buyer, candidate for worst Mother of the year award. Lauren’s feral Children. Racist, misogynistic Mr Pell. Gemma looking haggered AF wrestling her little brat in the making. What is it they say… ‘money can’t buy you class’.

Also imagine your new Sister in Law posting a pic where your Husband (Jake) looks like he can’t stand you and your little bratty baby

I don't think it is bizarre - I think having a baby after a stillborn could potentially bring a whole new wave of grief, as with your newborn you are now realising everything you missed out on with your stillborn and also there is the fear/guilt that your stillborn baby might be forgotten. I imagine it's really difficult to navigate.

I'm due in January after a stillbirth 10 months ago. I can't wait to meet my baby but also terrified as I know I'm a very high candidate for PND.

Edit to say: I do not think you need to feel sorry for her son - her son, I am sure, is getting all the love and attention he needs. I imagine she just doesn't want her P forgotten about and feels a need to still champion her. It's easy to judge when you haven't been through it so please show some compassion.

I believe it also has a lot to do with attention, it’s clear that she loves that for whatever reason be it good or bad.

 

[Hermione789]

Originally I thought it was good she got pregnant when she did as it would’ve distracted her and boosted her mood, given her hope etc etc
But now I agree with you both, she’s too overwhelmed and isn’t enjoying the baby, it’s clear to see.

 

[BobsPussy]

I think she come across as quite lonely. I know she has her husband and her sister, but where are her girlfriends? I might be way off, but there is never mention of friends coming over to see her It’s the gram she seeks constant reassurance from.
