I think that follower read way too much into that post tbh, I didn’t feel it was that deep. A few crying emojis were used as a joke, that’s it. It’s clearly triggered something in that follower but honestly, just scroll on by.

She is also clearly very triggered by it hence her most recent stories

 

[Missprimm]

I used to really like her content but more and more since giving up her job to do this full time it's becoming just like all the other influencers out there.
She has talked a lot about how she only collaborates with brands she loves and refuses a lot of work but then did an ad for soda stream. Surely you would research and understand the companies ethics before doing a collab?
Also found it really unfair that she called someone out on her story this week who had pm'd her an innocent congrats message. I agree no one should assume anyone is pregnant but Meg could at least have blanked out the person's IG handle.

The reality is some women fly through their pregnancies and delivery with zero issues and others are not so fortunate.

Ah ok!

I had the misfortune to live in the same area as Meg until a couple of years ago so mostly know places/events that she posts about. I really do believe that she thinks none of her followers live in/near Bristol, the way she bangs on about things!

Why did she think going back to work with a 6 week old would be easy? She lives on another planet and seems to just not believe all the mums that have come before her

Because she thinks we are all a bunch of negative nellies. Don't you remember when she spoke about the (non existent) "stigma" of talking about having a positive newborn experience?

 

[pommobear]

Sorry but even if your baby is an absolute dream and does nothing but sleep and feed, you get weepy and emotional because of the hormones. How does she not have that? It's odd at this point.

The ‘baby bag’ thing was tongue in cheek, however I do think she’s drastically unprepared for how the baby will affect their lives. She’ll make out it’s a doddle though for sure.

Didn’t she say they’re going to Australia for a few months over Xmas too

 

[Carnations & Corner Baths]

She’s so rude in her responses to people! Plus who on earth are these saddos so invested in a stranger’s baby that they are avidly watching her stories to see if baby’s arrived?!

 

[Aussie]

Let's not forget, a few insta stories & posts is not a true snapshot of actual reality.

 

[AreWeThereYet]

I wish her luck taking a 7 month old to Australia. By then they’re mobile, if not trying and mostly do not sit still on a flight

 

[Violetmissing]

Is the not wearing maternity clothes a flex on being slim? Or just that she’s the coolest pregnant person ever
At 39 weeks she’ll be begging for an Elasticated waistband

it’s both.
She keeps pretending like pregnancy is just something that randomly happened to her and she’s surprised it’s going ahead. It’s all quite insensitive. She’s in her early thirties it’s not a shock to have a baby now.

 

[Tell.A.Tale]

My money is on her just passing her due date but being one of these naive FTMs thinking she’ll deliver at 38 weeks. But again - she’s not actually said because she knows exactly what she is doing. By keeping that hush, she keeps everyone in “suspense” and keeps her followers “engaged” because they keep coming to her page to get updates. Everyone would be far less invested if she said “my due date was 17th July and I’m a week late”

 

[Hypnotizedchicken]

Doesn't know its Thursday but does know she has a pedicure booked in. Sounds about right!

 

[Thatgummysmile]

Came here to say this. It’s actually nauseating and makes me want to actively avoid the brand!

 

[Hypnotizedchicken]

The videos she does with her mum winds me up, she thinks she hilarious, she might be a bit funny but most of it is just trying too hard to be funny.

 

[Aussie]

It's a local food festival, and not nearly as OTT as she is making out! This is why I've stopped following her, sick and fed up of her whinging & blatant rudeness which all of her followers seem to lap up

Ah ok!

 

[thriceuponatime]

Lovely news she’s having a baby. Wonder if her audience will stay around. I feel like she’d made a presence online about being happily child free.

This! She has said repeatedly that she didn't particularly want children, especially as they like to travel a lot. You can guarantee she's watched Claire's posts & stories about swanning round the world with 3 children and decided that it will be a complete breeze with just one. They really are morphing into one person at this point.

 

[Violetmissing]

Interesting of Meg to say today “manifest and ask the question” and you might end up in upper class on a virgin flight from vegas. Is she taking the piss? Most of us aren’t on a free flight from vegas to start with paid for by a company you’ve been flogging for weeks. What world are these guys in?

Claire is just genuinely too stupid to understand the risks she’s putting her kids in. There’s no depth to her at all, you can see it when she talks about anything more serious than interior design. But don’t worry, she’ll be home schooling! You can literally find her address within seconds.

Very cute name to be fair

Wakes the baby to take her for said pedicure. Sounds rather selfish which also sounds about right!
