So if he's on loan he would extend covering Shan if his line manager is ok with that or go back to his usual departmentThere is already a guy in her role who has been there a few months with no indication that he is on a secondment/maternity cover. More experienced than Shan. When/if she returns, they'll have to either offer that guy a new role or her.

She gives her kids breadsticks and rice cakes for snacks instead of fruit, that's how!

If mine told me she had sore legs in the night I’d assume she had RLS and figure out to fix it. If that didn’t work, I’d definitely be taking her to the GP

It just popped up on my TikTok. I don’t follow her anywhere so I didn’t realise quite how cringe she’d got

You would make a much better influencer than her - I'm convincedI came to say the same. Will she ever learn?!? So apparently just because daddy is home and he has no nursery tomorrow means he can stay up?!
My 3yr old fell asleep in the car for literally the last 2 mins of the drive home from our day out. I was so tired and would have loved to just plonk on the sofa while she napped but I knew if she had any sleep, we would pay for it at bedtime. Parked up, woke her up and had a bit of a wild 10 mins to perk her up then she was playing happily and bedtime was only 10 mins later than usual.
She's also banging on about period pants as if she's the first in the world to be given a pair.
I'm the furthest from being a prude, but if I was doing the ad, I would just show the product, and even do close-ups so everyone can see how thin/great quality the material is etc. But there's no way I would put my jeans down and show my underwear knowing she has a high following and some of those might be pervvy men. Is it just me?
I already get unwarranted requests from men without doing any of those things, I can't imagine if I was pulling down my trousers as well.
Did you notice her post reply from another ‘influencer’ mum, that’s the mum friends she wants!Oh Shan darling, lets not pretend that your kids come before your phone/social media

I was curious about those comments on the video so I watched it...... Surprisingly I actually thought it was ok. She didn't ignore George, she explained everything to him and took them both out etc. so I can kind of understand the people sticking up for her now, regarding that video. However, I don't think that's how she usually is, well I know it's not. And interestingly..... George was (what I thought, I have an almost 3yr old boy) really well behaved! So it just shows that the behaviour issues are linked to lack of attention. I know myself if I don't spend enough time with my son/ we stay in all day he will act up! But rather than moaning to the whole world about it, I usually reflect and realise there's a reason for the behaviour
I’m moving house and was watching packing inspiration on YouTube earlier (instead of packing my own things, of course) and her videos came up as recommended, so I watched them. The first one from when she moved from Lincoln in particular was a really nice video. She came across as very likeable, at ease, so sensitive with G and really like she was bossing it in terms of moving her whole house with a toddler and her (then boyfriend) abroad for work. It seems as though she has been completely drained of that zest as soon as he returned home!

Thanks for taking one for the team as always!!
If she doesn't have time to make quality content, then why even bother?! She should use up the time to be with her family and fix her relationship which looks like it needs some work.
What kind of a parent wants to restrict fluids for their baby?! To reduce H's formula intake she would need equivalent nutritious food (not pizza like she showed) and fluids. Is she going to let her go thirsty instead? Geez, no common sense!
Still no mention of her going back to work. Guess she can't afford it but did not want to say it. Bet she can't wait to go back so she can be away from the kids, the way she talks about them...
She will then talk about how going to work feels like a spa day If Ash works 12 hour days, whos going to pick up the kids from nursery when she has to work in London?! Our local nurseries all close at 6pm and if you are in a regular 9-5, getting back home from London in 1 hour sometimes isn't viable as transport is SO unreliable in the city. It's going to be a struggle for her unless she works fully remote.

Absolutely. She has no bedtime routine for him (or Halle that I've seen..!) and then wonders why he doesn't sleep or keeps waking up!

No one was disagreeing with Download being children friendly I think - so you're not siding with her
I just feel you can't truly enjoy those type of festivals to the fullest if you are visiting for the day with a very young child. It's not what Download is about.---
Exactly what I thought. She looooves playing martyr.

I'm fairly sure it was only in the last month or so that I heard it. I can't remember where but I just googled and It's on the NHS website now and I also found this which was published at the start of May. It also says skimmed milk shouldn't be given until at least the age of 5.
My little one quit naps at 1 completely stopped nothing worked and she never slept in the car past this age either, but would have a good bedtime, I understand that’s very early to not nap but how is a 4 year old still napping no wonder she’s got issues at bedtime.plus keeping him in nursery clothes is rank I change and normally bath my daughter when she gets home (she loves a bath and normally asks for one I don’t treat her like she’s covered in germs )

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.

We have had this happen a handful of times and we still manage to at least get changed into pyjamas. It's generally happened when we're doing bedtime routine too and never just fallen asleep in front of the TV alone. She's just lazy!

I truly cannot believe this post. Is she just letting her kids cry while she rolls her eyes at them?! She is so heartless.
If I heard one of mine cry like that I'd be all hugs and 'come to mumma. Are you ok?'.
She is a bad excuse for a human being. What is wrong with her??? I swear this one touches on being psychopathic.

She bought them and unlike the matching xmas PJs fiasco, he must have not refused wearing them this time round
My eldest is hard work, it's really draining but I just do my best to not let it get to me. Luckily my 2nd is so easy in comparison.
Yep, as one phases ends another starts. All part of having kids. Give me a toddler/pre schooler over a teen any day

My husband and I take turns all the time to take care of the kids at weekends (we both work full time) so we can each have our own 'me time'. For my husband that could be his haircut or a drink at the pub with a couple of friends. For me a meal out with the girls or literally a 'spa day' where I either go for a facial, get my nails done at a salon or a pamper hair day. We've been doing this since my eldest was weeks old and it's no different to what my other mum friends do with their partners.
I partly feel bad that Shan probably never gets to do this because she has a useless husband but it should be the norm. It's the kind of thing that helps you keep your relationship alive after having children.

Spot on. More or less what I was saying at the same time

@Puffin_island Bravo! now if only she read here and took some of your advice.... 
Couldn't agree more on being a narcissist specially. But she hasn't got many other points of reference as to how other mums have it much harder than her because she has no friends. Vicious circle.
