I honestly can’t see her putting a post out admitting that Ronnie is very behind. I think she’s feeling a lot of resentment towards him and harbouring some disappointment that he hasn’t fit in well with the rest of her perfect instagram ready life. I get the feeling she is suffering from post natal depression and this is making her behave erratically as we’ve seen recently. I think that the constant Instagram posts are trying to masks what’s really going on, hence why she doesn’t last long and comes back on for validation from the followers who worship her.
I have no doubt she reads these threads, at one point she was relatable but she isn’t anymore. My advice to her having worked with children with developmental issues (I’m a salt therapist) and from a mother who has had pnd, I would say she needs to come off Instagram, go to her gp and get some help. The having to post on Instagram several times a day and only hearing from admiring followers is skewing her best judgement for Ronnie. The baby wouldn’t be referred to me as he is too young but I would say she needs to be bringing this up to the health visitor everytime she sees him. Health visitors are reluctant sometimes to refer because of their workload but I can’t stress enough how important it is. She needs some extra support for herself and her baby. As I say he is too young to judge from my perspective yet though judging by small clips on her ig, I would expect some more babbling by now. Sophie if you read this, please research about encouraging verbal speech development in baby/toddler years, he already appears behind in his fine motor skills but you can keep him on track for his speech and language.
