I had a long labour and then an emergency section, I’d also planned to breastfeed and I wasn’t allowed to be discharged until the midwives had seen that I could successfully do it, but it just wasn’t happening, he wouldn’t latch and I know he had lip-tie (our pct doesn’t do anything about them). I was in hospital crying that I just wanted to give him formula because I was tired, in pain and he was hungry but they wouldn’t let me. Eventually when I’d managed to get him to latch just long enough to sign me off and discharge me (5 days later!!) I changed to formula as soon as I got home, I felt cruel because the midwives had made me feel like it was taboo.I was really struggling to get my son to latch and I’d only planned to breastfeed so when I got disaccharide, after a 50 hour labour, and emergency c section he was really hungry at home and I couldn’t get him to latch, had no formula in ( just incase of this issue) ended up us having to. All to midwives to beg them to come help only for when she turned up to be treated like a sick head who couldn’t feed their child. After 3 weeks I had to give up. She ended up making out like it was *my fault* that my nipples were too big for his mouth... I swear to god. My advice to any new Mam is if you’re planning to breast feed just have some of the small bottles of ready made formula in for when you get home just incase. X
So did I! I even zoomed inI thought that was her mam sat on the settee
Does she think she is fooling anyone? He is propped up against the bottom of the bed. She keeps posting these pics of him sitting or standing but he is always leaning on something or being held up. Give it up hinch and actually spend time with him encouraging him to walk and sit.
I’m not a mum yet...trying to be! But I don’t get why they can’t advertise new born milk?
Feel like I’m getting an education in how not to be a mum by watching Hinch and reading this thread! I watch her and she even makes me feel pressurised and I’m not even pregnant yet! But I do feel like she’s creating the most unrealistic view of being a mum!
I always think she’s so much younger as she’s so diddy bless her but she’s not! If Ronnie could do that we’d have a whole highlight dedicated to it and videos. It’s so sad she’s making him do things he’s not ready for for the sake of appearancehas anyone seen Gemma Atkinsons story of her little girl from yday?? Could just be a coincidence but something tells me it’s not
Oh my gosh I hadn't seen it, but I just went to look! She is literally just copying everyone else's content.has anyone seen Gemma Atkinsons story of her little girl from yday?? Could just be a coincidence but something tells me it’s not
I was just coming on to say this! As if any new followers asked that...didn’t realise bots asked cohesive questions.No one is asking about your curtain pleat trick ffsstop bloody lying! Just admit you’ve ran out of content now
I’ve seen that one too. Quite blatant.Ive been looking through a really good blw account on insta that someone mentioned on this thread. I think she’s defo getting the recipes from there.
That's awful that you didn't have the support. My daughter lost over 10% of her bodyweight after birth and two days of me trying to breastfeed. In the end I took it upon myself to exclusively express feed her. No one suggested it to me, which I think is ridiculous, and when they realised what I was doing they even tried to pressure me to ff. I chose to express as I really wanted her to have my breastmilk, but it was freaking me out that I didn't know how much milk she was getting when I was nursing her. I think midwives should make new mums aware that express feeding is another option, and it doesn't just have to be breast feeding or formula feeding. I did go through a bit of a grieving process that I couldn't physically breastfeed her, however I think it would have been alot worse had I not been expressing xxxxI was really struggling to get my son to latch and I’d only planned to breastfeed so when I got disaccharide, after a 50 hour labour, and emergency c section he was really hungry at home and I couldn’t get him to latch, had no formula in ( just incase of this issue) ended up us having to.

Definitely copying "I've got this mum". Only he hasn't has he Sophie so stop trying to prove a point and crawl around the floor with him etcOh my gosh I hadn't seen it, but I just went to look! She is literally just copying everyone else's content.
It would not surprise me if her and sloth sit on an evening going through everyone's stories to see what they can use for themselves!
Sophie - it really isn't that hard to be original 'hon'
