Agreed, life with my baby is relatively easy at the weekend when there’s two of us. Most of us do not have the luxury of having that all the time and I’m sure it does make it easier to be ‘here for the lols’

For most mums, they’re on mat leave at this point while their partner is at work. That’s where a lot of familial inequalities are baked in.
Obviously it’s better now in some industries where shared parental leave is encouraged, but I can’t think of a single ‘normal’ family with a baby under 6 months, where both parents are home full time and sharing care. Being a hands on dad doesn’t usually mean availability 24/7.
If that is their set up, then good for her! But it’s entirely fair to point out that in comparison to most mums at the same stage in motherhood, Kate’s experience is very different.
yes but that wasn't what the person who I quoted was doing. they were being incredibly sexist. saying Kate is "pampered" because her partner can take on the childcare.If that is their set up, then good for her!

Sorry do u have kids?yes but that wasn't what the person who I quoted was doing. they were being incredibly sexist. saying Kate is "pampered" because her partner can take on the childcare.
totally fair to point out that kate has it much "easier" in terms of her home and work life. her and her partner can be at home looking after hte baby not having to worry about money. but just because her partner does a lot of the childcare (by the looks of it) doesn't mean she's pampered! that's just basic parenting. you're right that not many people get to enjoy that privilege but I don't think that makes kate "pampered." privileged, hell yes!
No I agree, it's not relatable. But not being relatable doesn't mean someone is pampered. That was my point.Sorry do u have kids?
Most mums do not have the luxary of a dad who is at home taking care of baby. Most mums of new borns r frazzled tbh. Lucky her for her set up and finding motherhood so easy but not relatable to 99% of new mums.
Say itIt annoys me how little activity there is on this threadThere’s so much to say.
I always want to moan about her but i feel like I might just be bitter because I struggle to get my teeth brushed and get out to Tesco with my baby and do not want to see her swanning about ParisIt annoys me how little activity there is on this threadThere’s so much to say.
Where is Jordie getting the funds to buy her a pair of €395 shoes when he doesn't actually do anything these days? He even quit his coffee shop hobby. Is she paying and saying it's from him? Does she give him an allowance so that he can buy her gifts?So happy for Kate, poor girl doesn’t have many clothes or shoes and is really deserving of a pair of €395 shoes. She DEFINITELY needed them and I’m DEFINITELY not being sarcastic.
Or did she name her baby after the shoes? I guess we’ll never know…now a pair of Loeffler Randall heels for her bday (presumably just because they’re called ‘Dahlia’)
My little one is nearly 2 and my mornings still don’t look like Kate’s little show. Good for her, having Jordan around to care for the baby while she does all of her pampering, but that’s not reality for the majority of parents, and she’s really alienating people by documenting her life this way. I’d really respect her more if she just showed a bit of the messy reality.I’m also thinking it’s time to unfollow. My baby is about two months older and feel like she’s just putting on a show of how perfect things are. Today was my first day of day care drop off + getting myself to work and its nothing close to perfect and I don’t want it to be either! I grew up with a mum who demanded perfection and it’s messed me up. Don’t want to emulate that same thing because nothings perfect.
