Exactly the same experience
Exactly the same experienceThe fact that she had a film crew but I had to say goodbye to my partner 90 minutes after leaving theatre after my section and was then readmitted 24 hours after leaving and spent 3 days with my baby in a single cubicle with the curtains drawn at all times which I could only leave to use the bathroom or collect a meal tray with my partner unable to visit at all makes my blood boil.
P.s abdominal birth sounds nobby
I hope you’re doing ok and recovered well. I try not to think too much about that first week!Exactly the same experience
Just to be clear, I absolutely don’t think there is ANYTHING wrong with having an epidural. I wish I’d had one! I only said Vogue didn’t want one because she said it herself on her podcast that “she’d love to be able to say she didn’t need one, but she did”. I would never assume someone was ashamed of having one and I agree with everything you’ve said about it.Jeez where is the shame in an epidural? I hate this supposed badge of honour for a woman who refuses all pain relief. Woo hoo. Well done. Why do we have to be martyrs? If it's your choice then fine but to hide in shame because you chose pain relief is lunacy. It doesn't make you less of a person for deciding not to just tolerate the pain. Women have enough thrown at them without having an unhelpful narrative that child birth should be done without pain relief. To reiterate, if it is your choice then fine, but to feel ashamed because of this narrative is really damaging. It isn't a competition.
I'd had quite the journey with loss before finally reaching a full term pregnancy and planned CS (baby was breech).

Ah this doesn’t surprise me one iota either! Kid must be confused at not getting the scent of her mum three nights a week. Unless she’s pumped multiple times during the night on all these missing nights (fat chance since night nanny was there to give them sleep) then I can’t see how her supply has regulated or optimised at all.In a twist that absolutely no one saw coming, Noa hasn't got much interest in breastfeeding anymore due to a LOT of reasons that have absolutely nothing to do with Kate not feeding her three nights per week. No guys, this was all Noa's decision - she's ready to move on.

All the couples on that ghastly show had film crews in with them for the births in hospital. Charlotte Dawson and Jake whatshisname both said how non intrusive they found the crews to be.She didnt.

I'm a doula and I just wanted to say that doulas and nannies are completely separate jobs. A post partam doula is there to provide support for the mother to mother. Some things can include bringing food, making teas, providing breast feeding support, shopping etc. We are there to help the mum be able to focus on the baby. Totally different to nannying and anyone that is using a nanny and calling them a doula should know the difference.I think the hypnobirthing people call it abdominal birth because they want to empower women by calling it a birth instead of an operation.
She’ll soon get tired of that fight and be calling it a c-section before long. She insisted on ‘doula’ in the beginning, but has begun to buckle and called her ‘nanny’ in a story the other night
Sometimes it can feel horrificGod her caption on her latest post really says it all doesn't it. She writes as if having a newborn is a horrific ordeal, not one of the most special times in your life to cherish.
I hate this!! There is no excuse for using your phone when driving. Youre a cunt for it, simple as.The IG story with her in the car driving and shouting at someone crossing the road whilst texting. Does she not see the absolute hypocrisy?! She’s touching her phone whilst driving and not paying full attention to the road all for a stupid unfunny Instagram video. You can see her hand go up to end the video, and she’ll have also needed to press record too - you can see a long road behind her, with nowhere to pull over, so clearly also started the video whilst driving which will involve opening up either the camera or IG) What an absolute idiot!! Is it not illegal to touch your phone whilst driving in the U.K.?
I don’t think there was even anyone crossing the road. I just think she’s trying so hard to be funny it’s embarrassing reallyThe IG story with her in the car driving and shouting at someone crossing the road whilst texting.

I agree with you it can't always be rosy and that's fine, but in that particular caption she makes being a new mum sound about as enjoyable as being tortured. She's clearly not enjoying ANY of it which is sad.Sometimes it can feel horrificdont have to cherish every moment. We spend our lives being selfish, then have a kid and for some people learning to be selfless is overwhelming. Makes sense when kate was so adamant about being childfree and being carefree.
