Totally agree. Had to unfollow her after her ‘my baby should slot into my life, not the other way around’ comment. Oh I’m sure your newborn baby is loving spending her first days and weeks on this earth on photo shoots being held by god knows who while you get your make up done LydiaRe-iterating my post from the other thread, I think it’s a bit much she’s gone back to work 2 weeks after having her baby. Is she really that hard up for cash?? Obviously it’s her choice but at that stage after I had my wee boy I was in my jammies most of the day still, sitting cuddling him on the couch eating biscuits and enjoying the 4th trimester. Why even bother having a baby if you’re literally straight back to work? And ok it’s not like she’s doing a 9 hour shift on a hospital ward or anything, but still. Stop dragging your tiny baby about on “shoots” and press interviews to make a couple of quid.
That comment she made pissed me right off. My baby should slot into my life really! I mean newborn how selfish of them wanting fed, cuddles, attention and cared for shes not got a clue same as her bestie moaning about lack of sleep what do they expect baby’s aren’t dolls to play with and dress up honestly just do what the rest of us with newborns and children are doing and care for them. I’m ranting to now lol sorry for ranting on your quoteTotally agree. Had to unfollow her after her ‘my baby should slot into my life, not the other way around’ comment.

I feel like she is giving a completely false picture of what life as a new mum is like. If I didn’t have any kids I would watch her stories and think that having a baby would be a piece of cake. Two weeks after having my son I struggled to get showered and dressed by lunch time, let alone make it out of the house! It’s all well and good for her though I suppose as she has her mum and dad on hand at the drop of the hat to have the baby while she gets glammed up
Do one Lydia!
Sorry - rant over
This is one of the most honest and real statements I’ve ever read. It is amazing but so hard, you enjoy every moment. You’re never going to look back and regret your babies first few weeks in the world but I have a feeling that Lydia might.Our babies were born two day’s apart. I am lucky if I shower every day. I have washed my hair 4 times since being home yet only found the energy to dry it twice. I’ve only just done my nails for the first time since Christmas. I’ve thrown make up on 3 times. Most of my day’s in the first 2 weeks were taken up my random midwife and family / friends visits. My bed has been thrown up on, shat on, pissed on. So has my couch. I took her with me to poo the other day literally still on the boob as my insides are still working themselves out post csection that I couldn’t not go. I ordered a pizza and had to pull her off boob when delivery man arrived. Came back two seconds later to find she’d thrown it all up on her Sleepyhead. I’m still bleeding but have moved from adult nappies to giant ski pads. My feet only stopped being like balloons a week ago. Baby blues only passed then too. She sometimes doesn’t latch properly. Sometimes sleeps too long and I end up spraying milk everywhere. My bush is out of control as I haven’t touched it since Christmas. I am in a total baby bubble and loving every minute. We’ve done little walks going further every time. Experienced my first day alone with her! Watched so many good things on TV. Had endless cuddles. Smiles that aren’t real but they are to me. How she made it back to work is beyond me. Why she would want to is beyond me!!! You never get this time back. It’s so precious and amazing and they change every day. I support working mums obviously I am one or will be when I go back. However there’s no need for her to be out there like that!
I love how honest you are this is defo how my life has been since baby arrived and it’s refreshing to see someone else going through same things to enjoy your babyOur babies were born two day’s apart.

I wish 'influencers' gave REAL accounts of the fourth trimester, just like you have. Raw, honest and real You keep on enjoying and soaking up every minute with Baby Tippingpoint and you will have no regrets, whereas I think these influencers will looks back and have many, sadly.Our babies were born two day’s apart.

What’s wrong with that? I’m just glad to see someone who has millions of youngsters following her actually promoting breastfeeding!The way she starts her stories when she is breastfeeding, so low down just so we can see baby is on the boob
Love how honest and true this is. Brings back so many memories. Not long before I do it all again with my second.Our babies were born two day’s apart. I am lucky if I shower every day.

Her mum and dad Foster and have done for years. Lydia was living at home whilst her house was being renovated so has probably spent a lot of time with the baby but I'd say in more a big sister / auntie role. She wasn't the primary carer.Before she gave birth wasn’t she looking after a little baby girl that her family had fostered? I think she might just be used to having a baby around.
