but also, why can’t she dry her hair around the baby or leave him asleep in a Moses basket with the camera on him while she does it in another room if he’s a light sleeper? There’s ways around this type of thing.Exactly that as well she has way more help at hand than a lot of couples who live on their own in their own house and they still manage
Welcome to REAL life melanie.
All feelings,pain and struggles are valid. But sometimes you need to be conscious that your own 'struggles' are a bit snowflaky.
And she has time for selfie and shows her icky pout
And has him on a time scale ! I’m assuming the child won’t be able to develop at his own pace it’ll be to the beat of his mothers drum via the apps

A trimester in pregnancy is 12/13 weeks long. The PP period is the first six weeks after birth.It has to be a sad life to see the world/life through cyberspace and not physical touch or conversation .she’ll have great expectations for her child ,maybe more than he can fill and that will only lead to disappointment for both of them.
ive started looking at the gallery of photos I took when my kid was first born to remind me that he wasn’t always feral. They grow up so quickly and I am genuinely sad for her that she doesn’t seem to be just savouring every day as it comes not thinking too far ahead. Sure anything can happen in four years.
I think if this year has taught us anything it's not to take everything for granted and just slow down .Kids grow up so fast once they reach 14/15 they don't want to do those family things anymore they're too busy with their friends ...but I sense she can't wait for that time .I don't know how she'll cope with three tbh ,she said she can't function if Thomas is at work, she needs to get a routine going but she just seems to have given up maybe she's struggling and is not as content as she's trying to make out, there's no shame if she has to ask for a helping hand parenting is the toughest job in the world at times.
absolutely there’s no shame in admitting you’re struggling. It’s so difficult to keep on track of everything, especially when one of you is at work all the time (in my house that’s me and it’s so tense sometimes, which is where healthy communication comes in). She just needs to stop with the buzzwords and the shite and relax a small bit. I’m sure she’s doing fine and he’s her baby she has everything she needs to look after him. Just calm down it’s a marathon, not a sprint.
So true!! It's like everything must be customized, calculated, trendy, validated by others with hashtags and emojis. Most of us have this 'shallow' moments or episodes in our lives for at least boosting our egos or to escape from sad experiences from time to time. But muppet is in a different level and dimension knowing that she's already 31 and a mother.
By the time she has a 2nd one things will hopefully be back to normal in the world which means Thomas will be back working full time. Being a pilot I’m guessing he’ll be gone for days probably at a time. If she thinks its hard now with the one baby and he’s at home most of the time not to mention they live with his parents I dunno how she’ll manage 2 kids on her own under 3 if she falls pregnant around the time she’s hoping for and if they have their own place by then
Yes she seems to be overwhelmed atm. I just had a look on Insta I didn't check earlier so didn't know that's what you all were referencing ,she says she's struggling but one word from Thomas brought her to her senses and she had suddenly bounced back near the end of her stories
always has to portray she's some kind of superwoman and can overcome anything .I think she'd get more respect if she just told it like it is,I also think it's odd she keeps thinking the baby is going through a leap everytime he's unsettled and why the thought he could be ill hasn't crossed her mind ,usually if they're grizzly like that they could have earache or something but it never seems to cross her mind. The baby seems to feed a lot too,5 times a night is a bit excessive for a 9 week old (I know they're all different)no wonder she's sleep deprived I could never see her coping on her own with children if Thomas wasn't there to help out.
I don’t know why she makes everything into preaching? Have a moment Melanie, it’s completely fine. But what is with sharing this episode as a lesson to her audience?? Clearly she is struggling like every new mum does.. just accept and stop romanticizing and glorifying every little thing! I can’t, with these lifestyle influencers.
Melanie Preachy motherfucker! When for majority of women that is not the case/reality at all and not a lot of mothers would find that remotely relatable
