Congrats on the birth of your baby! I can't speak to your situation, but I'm sure there are others on the thread who've been through similar, so you certainly aren't alone xCome off ‘maternity leave’to post on here cos I really had to!
Watched her story last night and good god! Couldn’t help but feel like she was bragging about how good her postpartum body is! I had my baby last Thursday and am amazed by how my body is but wouldn’t go about plastering it all over social media as there are so many women who struggle with their body image after pregnancy.. was a massive turn off for me and am now considering unfollowing her on insta.
Also I am annoyed with all the breastfeeding posts too, as a new mum struggling to get my baby to latch properly after a traumatic birth it feels like a slap in the face! Anyway that’s enough out of me
Exactly, she sounds like oh I did so well not getting stretch marks, I put oils, I’m so great.I got a FUCK ton of stretch marks when pregnant/ did a lot of reading on them (I got ones around my arm pit! :O) There’s zero science based evidence oils and creams work on stretch marks because they happen at the molecular levels. Will it make your epidermis softer and make you feel better about yourself? Sure. But they don’t prevent them from happening.
she’s a twat.
Sensible, logical people would really doubt regarding her real intention for having a baby.She does this faux feminism "breastfeeding is natural" take, but as @monga said, she hasn't given any intelligent discussion on it. Only a couple screenshots about how good it is for the baby, which totally alienates women who can't physically do it.
Jesus, I don't even have a baby and I'd be a better new mum influencer than her.
Someone give me a baby and I'll show her how it's done.
Congratulations! I recently went through my Instagram and unfollowed every account that made me feel bad about myself or that I had to change myself to be happy. Most of my feed is now mostly cooking and dogs bit it makes me so much happier! So I say go ahead and unfollow Mel.Come off ‘maternity leave’to post on here cos I really had to!

Huge congrats on your baby! The first weeks of breastfeeding are so hard and nobody really talks about how tough it is after a traumatic birth. I got some good latch tips fromCome off ‘maternity leave’to post on here cos I really had to!

Did his mother actually say that???The face of a women who's v. nonplussed.
Yes, Melanie and Thomas have said so themselves in a video.Did his mother actually say that???
Yikes! How awkward to share that with her followers. I wonder what Thomas' or Mel's reaction was to that comment? Maybe that shows how MIL feels, and hence all that time spent in the attic rather than downstairsYes, Melanie and Thomas have said so themselves in a video.
Yes!o

Oh my God I would be mortified if my mother in law said something like that about meYes!
It's this video if anyone hasn't seen it, at 7:55 roughly.
Wait so they kissed and started casually dating when they were both seeing other people? Maybe I understood wrong. It's at 1:56.Yes!

Umm, excuse me, the apartment I live in with my boyfriend is by no means big but I can find room to workout, there's plenty of videos on YouTube with workouts for tiny apartments and apartment friendly workouts in general, that excuse is bullshit!
I think she's referring to a night out before they actually kissed? But maybe I'm getting that wrong.Wait

She’s a moron and Conor McGregor wannabe’s video is moronic too
To be fair to Mel, she did mention both the trauma and the not losing hair during pregnancy her stories.Em Melanie you're not the only woman to lose hair after having a child and it's not because of the 'trauma' you went through, like your followers have said (I highly doubt anyone said that to her). It's because women don't lose any hair when they are pregnant and then it all falls out in the few weeks after giving birth, you're losing 9 months worth of hair that should've fallen out all at once. Amazing how her research didn't tell her this.

I don't have a problem with businesses trading as long as they can follow the rules and make it as safe as possible .but that gym looks really small so couldn't trade safely . like someone said move the classes online that way he'd still be able to make money and people could join in whatever classes suited them.I follow an influencer that does an outdoor bootcamp and that's exactly what she's looking into doing even though she's got lots of outdoor space and could accommodate people but she's decided to stick to the rules .As you've all said a good walk is as good for clearing the head as a ton of weights .Umm, excuse me, the apartment I live in with my boyfriend is by no means big but I can find room to workout, there's plenty of videos on YouTube with workouts for tiny apartments and apartment friendly workouts in general, that excuse is bullshit!
If there's enough room for you to move around the apartment I reckon there's enough room to put down an exercise/yoga mat which is all you need for most home workouts anyway.
I think she's referring to a night out before they actually kissed? But maybe I'm getting that wrong.
Regardless, they've said (I don't know if it's this video or a different one) that if they're ever both single at the same time they'd make it happen (they said that to each other before they got together). Which is such a weird thing to say to someone when you're already in a relationship with someone else?? Why would I think about a potential next partner when I'm already in a relationship? If I found out my boyfriend said that to a girl I'd leave him because that just shows they aren't committed.
