Does it count as Halle standing/walking if Shan is literally pulling her up and forcing her to take steps? How is she not even rolling at 10/11 months? I know every child is different but it does sound like she is really delayed with her milestones. I always heard that girls develop quicker than boys. I walked/talked way earlier than my younger brother. And my little girl also hit most milestones quicker than my boy.

Unrelated but I've just seen a huge drop in the likes/comments in her last IG post. Also noticed about 8 out of her last 10 posts were all of her complaining how hard it is being a mum of two. I'm all for staying for on brand but being repetitive never really led to any real social media growth. She's just pushing the exact same narrative again and again and again...

I feel like it doesn’t count. No wonder really when she was in the carrycot of the pram for so long!
Having one of each, my girl (eldest) crawled at 7 months, could sit herself up at 8 months, stood at 9 months and was walking at 11 months. My youngest, my son, rolled both ways at 3 months, was expertly crawling by 5 months, could sit himself up and pull to stand at he turned 7 months but chose not to start walking until after his first birthday because he was so fast at crawling 😂. So they are all different, but there’s being different and then there’s well behind on multiple milestones.

I’ve only just seen the IG stories but what the hell? Now, I’m assuming it was all for show and that she wouldn’t have a duvet over the top of H in her sleeping bag (or at all hopefully) but she isn’t promoting the safe sleep seven in any way.

That does seem late. My youngest was late to walk (17 months) and talk (over 2) but she was rolling by 5 months

If Halle isn't even rolling yet, it basically means she has very little trunk stability. That's something tummy time is really beneficial for. Shan claims she does tummy time but if Halle genuinely isn't reaching those developmental stages, it basically shows us she hasn't done enough or any actual tummy time.

My LG never crawled and went staight to cruising and walking. But then about 3 months after walking she decided she wanted to crawl crawl 😂

Same! My youngest was an early talker but did not walk until 17 months as well. But rolling was also around 4-5 months.

That's kind of where I was going with it. It feels as if she just isn't getting much tummy time. Whenever she features Halle she is in that carried or laying down!

What age was your LG rolling though?

She was about 5 months when she started rolling, I only remember because it was the same time as she sat upright properly on her own too. She was also carried a heck of a lot as she hated laying on her back so our pram was useless 😅

I know you're not meant to compare babies but things like milestones such as sitting, rolling, crawling etc but it's still definitely something that should be talked about so you can help others who may be worried. Though we know Shan isn't doing it for advice or help but she's doing it for "woe is me" views.

Sitting upright is an important factor to consider when weaning but Shan was so desperate to get Halle on solids and 3 meals a day before she could sit upright properly. Then there was me who dragged out having 3 meals until she was 10 months because I didn't want to have to cook different foods for a baby 🤣

I've only watched a bit of her newest vlog but she bangs on at the start of how she's spent Halles nap time editing and the house is a mess. This just shows where her priorities lie. I think most of us would either use nap time to get ourselves sorted with food and rest or tidy up and do chores so you can spend time with your baby when they woke up and do things, like maybe swimming or tummy time. 😅 She seems more clueless second time round?!?!

Re: all the chat about Halle's milestones... Didn't she announce that Halle is hyper mobile and that's why she hasn't achieved the gross motor skills yet? If that's genuine and not an excuse... You'd think the physio/paediatrician would give her exercises that she should be doing with Halle, would you? Surely they don't just diagnose her as hyper mobile and send them on their way?!

About milestones.. my daughter didn’t walk until 22 months. She’s still never crawled in her life 🤣 I used to be worried sick but she’s not 2.5 and runs around like a loonatic and there isn’t anything wrong with her, so genuinely just think they all so different x

I am hypermobile (diagnosed by a doctor and various physios) and I feared my youngest could be too as he was a tiny bit behind on gross motor milestones (even though they were all within the normal range). So I took him to be assessed by a professional specialised in babies.

The truth was that it is very difficult to diagnose a baby that young, because they are all hypermobile at that age. It's only when they are much older that you can get a formal diagnosis. That is what I was told at the time at least but it made sense.

Shan never got a diagnosis. She thought Halle might have it BEFORE she went to the baby physio and they never confirmed it, like I suspected. She just googled too much and self-diagnosed. So it was just Shan being all woe is me again.

I have seen extreme cases of hypermobility in babies/infants and they aren't about being a little late with milestones. Those babies are super floppy and can barely move (it's really sad :( ) so it's definiately not Halle's case.

She also announced G might have SEN but was never diagnosed. And that she might have had 'a little postpartum depression' after Halle. As if depression is a piece of cake you just take a little bite out of... 😡

The ick I got watching her phone the health visitor for George ahhhhh.

Also - she’s so funny, moaning she’s no time to tidy but spending 20 mins in the kitchen talking about her outfit

How many times did or George try and say he wants to go and she just kept saying we are going now and then carried on talking. No wonder he got frustrated it was annoying me she just carried on then would probably wonder why he got annoyed! Even sharing health visitor calls hardly keeping him
Private!
Geeewizz, over 10 minutes into the vlog and the house hasn’t been tidied… even though at the start the two parents were there, no progress. She honestly just chats 💩 for agesssss when she could just be productive.

Day 2 of the vlog and her downstairs is still a mess. Have a bit of a tidy instead of rambling on Shan 🤯 wash the dishes and talk ?

Not sure she should be standing Halle up and getting her to "walk" like that to be honest. She's clearly a big heavy baby and obviously doesn't actually have the strength or muscle herself to do it. My 5 month old baby will straighten her legs and try to stand up if I hold her hands - it doesn't mean she's about to walk. I think it's just instinct.
I still find it mad that Halle tolerates being laid down so much on that play mat at 10 months. My baby is already bored as hell by the play mat and doesn't want to just be laid on her back told to bash at a hanging frog. How is Halle still OK with it 😂

It looks like she deleted 4 posts a couple weeks back. I wonder why. Most likely she got a lot of hate on them and it was easier to delete than deal with it...

So following on from her back door key saga. She said she's now going to leave the key in the door so the lock can't get picked, is this when she isn't at home too?! But I've always been told and practice to not leave the key in the door if you aren't at home because then someone can't just smash the door and unlock the door. What do others here do? 🤔

I googled it after her saying that and they recommend you take the key out of the lock and put it in a safe place for the reason you have mentioned. I never leave my keys in the door if I’m in bed/out, I will leave the back door keys in if I’m in the house though

In fire safety stuff as a kid we got taught not to leave the key in, but reasonably nearby - as if it’s your route out and the key has heated up, you might burn your hand. Thinking on it there’s loads of reasons for/against though, and I’ve realised we tend to leave ours in 😅
Not for fear of being broken into though - if that was a concern I’d add an extra style of lock to the door.

It's really bad of her to mention it for her family's safety. Some people know where she lives and she is just making it obvious the key is going to be easy to grab.

Now, I don't think anyone that posts on here would have bad intentions but this is an open forum and anyone can read. So it's pretty stupid of her.

She’s absolutely stupid for leaving the keys in the door, let alone announcing it to the world! When I still lived with my parents just over 10 years ago my dad accidentally left his keys in the door one night and someone actually did cut through the door to get the keys which also had his car key on, luckily a neighbor spotted him when she was just back from a late shift but god knows what would’ve happened if she didn’t. I actually thought she’d just not explained herself properly as surely nobody would leave their keys in the door on purpose 🥴
