I feel so sad for her baby. She has no maternal side to her. She doesn't know how to look after a baby. This putting in swing in front of the TV, pegging the fleece blanket so it's up at his neck, let the wee guy lie on a mat and kick freely without a thick blanket on him. As for buying the dog blanket instead of the baby blanket because it was cheaper, why does she think it's cheaper... Because it won't have gone through the same safety checks. It honestly feels like she's just watching a friend's baby and doesn't really know what to do with him and maybe it's because I'm unable to have children and it would be my dream to, that I'm feeling really sad.

So sorry to hear that
I completely agree on everything you have said.
She has no clue at all.
What on earth were thise stupid stories of her sat in the car waiting for baby to wake up then shouting “Alistair” like he’s a toddler ffs. Playing absolutely crap so called music doing her lips
She is so pathetic and cringey the way she acts. I don’t get why she is even going to these invents. She really does think she’s famous and everyone will be fussing around her. So delusional. No one was looking near her. It’s not like she is an influencer she just puts crappy links up on Amazon yet these company gift her. Never understood that one.
She rarely bothered with her mum before baby came along. Only to say she had to care for her or she was having problems etc. Now her mum is more like Alistairs mother having to look after him and stay over most days so madam can get a good nights sleep. It’s a good slap she needs and mother to tell her to get her priorities right.
Why on earth is she buying a second hand play pen?? He is 4 months old and no where near crawling. It’s what babies do at that age when you lie them down. It’s called tummy time which he should of been doing long before now. Babies learn to move themselves and roll over. He’s not crawling and certainly no where near walking and most certainly nowhere near an age where he needs a playpen.
Why would she even need a playpen. She just baffles me how uneducated she is with babies. The fact she refers to him as “that kid” or “this kid” says everything about her.
Why oh why does she wear tight leggings. She looks ridiculous

Ugh yes she could've just taken his car seat and carried him into the house and he probably wouldn't wake up given that she had to shout a few times to stir him. Made no sense. Also the baby walker! He can hardly hold his head. I dispair she has no mum friends with babies. I feel like he's an inconvenience for her
she has no mum friends with babies. I feel like he's an inconvenience for her She keeps going on about how unsettled he is and how he is growing and how he is always hungry. If she had just an ounce of common sense she would know he is ready to go on solids as well as milk. Both mine were on solids at 4 months as was my grandaughter.
Why does she not know this surely it’s basic knowledge of parenting a baby. Poor “kid” is clearly fed up of just milk and needs food.
Moaning about being up in the night. That’s the joys of being a mummy. A lot of babies are sleeping through or only up for 1 night feed at that age. She needs to get a grip.
Does the annoying voice she puts on when she talks to him grate on anyone else or is it just me. She acts more like an aunty coming to visit than a mum.

She definitely reads here then! She gave him some wheatabix yesterday and he slept so much better. Honestly she’s not a bloody scooby on bringing up baby’s. And like it’s been said here before she’s no other mummy friends she mix’s with. What is it with the having to stop mid conversation to swallow. Iv only followed her since she was pregnant and when I saw her do it before I thought it was the sickness even then it was dramatised. Now Iv noticed it I cant unsee it everytime I watch her.
She has definately been reading here. Too much of a coincidence and saying she is fed up of all these Karen’s trying to tell her how to bring up her son. She knows what’s best for him he is her son blah blah blah.
If she knew what’s best for him why has she only just clicked on that he needs to be weaned. Why has she constantly got a blanket pegged to his swing/ chair or wherever he is sat in. Why does she not think to buy him some baby teething toys for him to bite on instead of his fingers all the time. He is not like a 6 1/2 month old baby at all. Yes he might be chunky in size and up a clothes size but that’s normal for most babies they are in a size above. He can’t roll properly yet and his head control is very poor. Does she ever think to stand him on her knee to strengthen his wee legs and let him bounce up and down and that helps with head control massively too. He always seems to be laid on that rug or sat in a swing or chair or pushchair. He needs good interaction to help him develop properly.
I will never understand this blanket pegged on nonsense. Let his wee legs be free to kick and his hands free to wave around and grip toys.
I am glad she is reading here. About time she was given some device on how to look after a baby.
She can’t stand anyone telling her as she is a massive know it all. Sometimes Laura you have to admit you aren’t always right which is a lot of the time

Guidance has changed over the years and its not recommended to start weaning until at least 6 months old now. Granted each to there own and im a big believer in mothers instinct and you know whens best for your own child. I personally started purees at 4.5-5 months. (I also know people that started earlier and also people that started closer to 7 months so no judgement here.) However BLW comes with risks, i personally wouldnt start blw until all signs of readiness are shown which includes being able to sit unsupported which he definitely cant, hes only just recently got the strength to hold his neck/head up.
Yes it has changed a lot the guidance. So many changes. I did at that age too and my daughter did with my grandaughter in 2019.
I agree he should be able to support himself and sit up which he can’t yet for BLW.
She just comes across very uneducated. I know he is her first but a lot of it is common sense tbf
So she got her mum round yet again so she could swan off and go and watch Solomans son or grandson play football. She did same last weekend. Why the hell is she going to watch
talk about a cling on she’s super cringey ffs. All those advent colours will be on offer between now and Christmas in the supermarkets etc so why just why is she linking them
