She’s not being fat shamed because she’s pregnant. She’s large pre pregnancy and during pregnancy. It’s just a fact.
it also is a fact fat people have more risks of complications and smaller babies. She’s consultant led because of her weight.The NHS don’t throw resources at fat people who are pregnant for no reason 🙄
Have you read her medical records?! At her age and size she *may* not have any weight related issues (yet). The NHS classes mums over the age of 32 as geriatric mothers so I’d say some of their polices are outdated. She could be consultant led for many reasons. In fact, weight would probably be the last reason unless she had other health related issues. The BMI guidelines would have a huge %of Mother’s classified as obese and they would not be able to offer every single one of them consultant led care.

This Tattle thread always makes me smile because I feel like most posters here are cheering her on! I never understood the weird foot post but other than that think Lori is really likeable and relatable!

On the flip side, people say that they miss the old days of Instagram when you could post whatever you wanted without having to prep. From other thread I'm watching....
*Slimming world gem annoys people with her "cute" flatlays
*Fopp annoys people by dressing up and putting on makeup to stay home

All vaild opinions may I add.

I feel like Lori is just being realistic. Working from home, joggers, slippers, coffee in hand... ready to roll. (I think her hair is just unplaited bed hair rather than not being brushed)

((sidenote: I'll admit I didn't even register her weight. That's down to her own feelings and opinion))
Would totally have someone be like this than all fake and showy. We knew she had put on the weight so that’s not a shock. I think it’s just a shock to see someone not made up for the gram; which is a sad sign of what Instagram has become

geriatric isn’t over 32. I’ve just had a baby so aware of a lot of things being discussed. She’s consultant led cause her BMI will be high. It’s automatic. As for people saying they had a bigger baby when fat- that’s great but it’s not the norm. If it was- why would they automatically make you consultant led if your BMI is high?
Not sure what ‘weight stigma’ is? She’s fat. I’m not sure why that’s being debated? It’s not difficult to see or really a point of contention. I think she admits it herself. I recon she’s got a very high BMI from the height/ size ratio and that does lead to consultant led as it’s a risk factor. She also said she was consultant led from the start so it’s not been a complication which has arisen further on.
Didn’t say she was a terrible mother either or that anyone who is consultant led is. She appears to be a fab mum so far! That’s not a debate
What you said was “I feel so sorry for her- they were talking about bringing baby out early. Most likely cause of her size. It’s not a good start for a child to be carried by such an unhealthy mother. Bets the wee is pretty small” which quite frankly is an awful thing to say “it’s not a good start for a child to be carried by such an unhealthy mother” - let’s face it she’s not injecting crack so there are much worse ways to start a child’s life. Nobody is denying she’s overweight HOWEVER there’s absolutely no need to make such judgements, you don’t know her reason for being overweight, if you don’t know her personally then keep your pity to yourself. As I previously said if something god forbid happened to that baby and she ever read your comment if I were you I’d be ashamed of myself, she’s obviously done what she can to look after the baby throughout pregnancy so leave it out.

Don't really understand this one. She used to be a slimming world account, slimmed right down look fab, now she's promoting being plus size, now she's saying she's going back to eating healthy, while posting junk food 🙄 and what's with the weird foot thing she does in like every photo.... Claiming to be a size 16 🤔
I think she still looks good to be honest 🤷🏻‍♀️

Does it matter that she’s in the 2nd centile? As long as baby follows that centile anyway it’s perfectly healthy, it’s whether baby drops off the centile it becomes a worry.

Stop being such a misery.
All she’s doing is spreading her negativity because she’s trying to back up “I’m right, I’m right” initial fat shaming argument that she feels sorry for the baby because it’ll be born small because Mum is fat and it’ll be unhealthy. Fucking hell imagine if she was in your life day to day, you wouldn’t want her anywhere near your baby with that attitude - hard to be like most normal people and simply be happy for someone that has had a safe arrival and healthy baby. Literally all her posts are “pick me, the NHS doesn’t need an overhaul I’m right”.
Nobody knows if she was full term, she’s literally never mentioned a due date.

Plenty of bigger women have healthy births and healthy sized babies.

I don’t like comments on anyone’s weight but the outfit isn’t flattering and it’s washing her out. Saying that, I think bravo to her for posting what she wants on her Instagram.

My eldest child was really small (under 6lbs at 38 weeks) I am a 'healthy' weight I had a routine scan to check if baby was breech and induced a week later due to poor growth. Sometimes pregnancy just has complications and there is no reason for it.
No one would ever tell me I wasnt the right weight to have a baby, so I feel it's not ok to do the same to heavier mother's.

In my line of work I see mother's of all shapes and sizes and seen some 'unhealthy weight' mother's give birth to healthy babies.
