It’s odd isn’t it, I look at other instagrammers with babies of a similar age or younger and they are toddling about and generally seem much more advanced.
My son won’t be one until next month but he’s been walking since around 9 months, he’s an exception for sure because his Dr at the hospital (unrelated to walking health issue) was blown away when he saw him and even said “don’t expect this for all your kids”
I think it boils down to the fact he had a looot of floor time due to the health issue, I was worried that an impending operation would affect how much floor time and development time he’d get during recovery so over compensated and he ended up doing quite well for it. He reached a lot of milestones earlier than expected and I fully attribute it to all of the floor time he got and the fact we avoided containers.
I’ve noticed a lot of influencers tend to always have their children contained, whether it’s in a bouncer, jumperoo, high chair, push chair, bassinet, basically anything you can stick them in and they don’t move, and I think it does take it’s toll because the limited floor time eventually affects how they learn to do things; I’m not saying Kate doesn’t give her daughter enough floor time but I have noticed any time she shares her she’s in a container (pushchair/carrier/their arms).
It’s normal for babies to start walking around 12-18 months from what I’ve been told so it could be that Dahlia gets enough floor time but is just taking her time getting to the end result, but they should be encouraging her in every way possible now, if she wants to do mama content it’s also good content to show how they’re encouraging her but who really knows?
Kates notorious for misdirection and maybe she has a really active toddler on her hands that won’t keep off the furniture and Kate’s spending a lot of time catching her when she tries to leap but portrays her as laid back and always contained. hard to say but I agree with everyone else that that baby is never photographed doing anything.
Also the push chair? Piss off. I need a double buggy soon because I’m having another baby and the price point on them is so ridiculous and unaffordable but I bet you if I had 20k-100k+ followers on socials I’d be sent one ridiculous
She’s such a bore it’s painful to watch. Her latest video seems to pick up and cut off at weird spots too, or did she really need 3 outfits and 2 Fridays to tidy one room and one drawer? And she needs an iPad to edit despite the MacBook and iPhone she’s already got… did I miss something between nodding off?
I stopped following Kate ages ago. I think I followed her mostly for cute cat pics, but then she mostly stopped showing the cats at all once she had a kid.
I actually wondered if she might be pregnant. In some pics her face looks fuller, although it could just be the way she's wearing her hair now. The hairstyle is ageing imo and the clothes are not helping.
She’s done an intro post insisting she’s the happiest she’s ever been and that may be true! But it seems so lonely and empty. I don’t know why she doesn’t just pack in the ‘influencing’ and go quietly live her life.
That's a strange turn of phrase, red flag for potential depression. If a friend said that to me or posted it on their social media I'd be concerned. I hope she's ok.
Kate not working nearly as much as she used to with influencing, TV or the cocktail business. Where is the money coming from for a bathroom reno and custom made basin? I am writing this from my outdated loo
Right? Like even with her interior projects she shows mostly teases and never shows the process/tips/tricks so why would people really care about her DIY? Everything else she hires a specialist to do and then when she puts a vase of flowers and a random perfume bottle next to the end result ‘Ooo look at the reno I did’… well no, you’ve just staged the outcome.
I quite like the kitchen (at least compared to the rest of the house!), but I don't understand why she got rid of the dining area! Was that island really necessary when she's already got so much storage and bench space? Makes no sense to me with a small family. I live alone and my house isn't big enough for a dining table, yet I still wish I had one!
