Agree but I kind of wonder if it will be a big reveal? All being filmed at edited for RWL she did stories not long ago saying it won’t be long
Yes I do wonder that I hope not. However the cynical side of me does wonder if it’s a business plan she will show her belly for a while and then suddenly lose it! Then go ‘here follow my new post baby plan’

Yes agreed. I think she’s using it to some form of RWL advantage. The longer she leaves it, the more her body will ‘go back’ anyway and then use newly post partum photos I reckon.

Yeah that list screams 'please someone give me something for freeeee'!!!

And I bet she is waiting to capitalise on RWL -revealing her post baby bod and getting people to subscribe to find out what her secret was.

Notice how she highlighted the ‘can breastfed babies aleep through the night’ question
But what about the fabulous sleep consoletent that's she hired and promoted through Results with Bump....did they not provide this answer?! So perhaps her sleep guru is not all she is cracked up to be despite what Lucy would have us believe!

Our babies were born on the same day! 😊

I agree with all re: sleep consultants. How can they be so prescriptive and assume that their one technique will work for every baby? They all seem like snake oil merchants to me.

I'm in a fortunate position because my boy is a fairly good sleeper. Still up multiple times in the night but has a feed and goes back down. Nap times it's totally hit or miss whether we can put him down, but I'm alright with it. Trying to 'train' him to do anything seems useless at his age, I'm just trying to follow his lead. It feels like Lucy and Lydia thought their lives would quickly get back to normal after their baby, and they'd have a cute new accessory and source of content for Instagram.
congrats hope you and baby are doing ok. My son isn’t to bad at night takes feeds and back to sleep Most times but then things change everyday with him I just take it as it comes. He had bad colic at the beginning and we made it through that which was hard going. I agree a lot of them use babies as accessory

I must admit as annoying as I found her in pregnancy she has gone up in my estimations but I do like how she’s not trying to rush getting back into results with Lucy and parading her body! I’ve seen on a few occasions she shows her bump which is completely normal! Unlike her mate Lydia who shows off constantly!
I thought she would be really keen to get back into it considering how much she used to exercise. It’s refreshing really

Makes an interesting read....
I just don’t understand why people think it’s acceptable to leave a baby that young (or any age for that matter) to cry themselves to sleep. To me it’s just cruel. I haven’t had a full nights sleep in over 2 years and permanently tired but I still couldn’t bring myself to leave my baby to cry himself to sleep.

It is cruel, a month old 😌 my 3rd baby is 9 months old and I’m fully prepared to not have a full nights sleep for a good few years 🤪😂

I've just had a deep sad feeling about all this crying to sleep talk. It's so hard mums out there I know it but I truly believe that babies need you , respond to them hold cuddle rock feed -don't resist, let them know you are there always let them feel the prediction you will come they will be secure and safe and settled in time from this-I'm no professional but I don't think money making should come from any crying babies. It's hard and so so beautiful. Imperfections are beautiful, robot babies are make believe, some sleep some don't but they all need sleep it just comes in different forms xx

I agree. All kids need their mums. But I could never leave mine to cry. I just can’t do it and I always imagine he’s going to get a sore throat if he cries to much. But honestly I don’t let him cry for more than 30 seconds 😂 I can’t stand the noise it breaks my heart. Don’t have kids if you don’t want to look after them.

There's nothing like the feeling when your little one stops crying as soon as they're in your arms. All they wanted was to be near to you. To me it's a privilege to be able to offer that comfort to him. I cant imagine leaving him there to cry knowing that I could make it stop in a second. Sleep is a developmental thing and I hope to support my little one through it rather than teaching him that I won't come when he cries. Shame on the 'consultants' preying on vulnerable new mums, and shame on Lucy for giving them airtime on RWL.

Its not as simple or as callous as not wanting to look after them. I admit to doing CC with my son (he was about 8/9m old). I had horrific PND, I was pregnant unexpectedly (the pill didnt work!) and he was still waking every 2 hours. The lack of sleep was causing even more harm to my mental health. I couldnt leave either to just cry alone, but CC did help.
