Still chuckling nowThat’s a compliment from one of the funniest tattlers around
proper tickled me it did ..Why thank you!
they do make it easy for us though don’t they 
How much is she feeding that baby???
I know! I can’t believe how much her children eat. On one hand it’s great that they will eat anything, however the portions do look huge (although I bet most of it ends up on the floor). BLW wasn’t really a thing when I had my kids but I thought you were meant to start off with limited food groups rather than just chuck everything at them!
No, with BLW you do give them pretty much everything from day one, except whole nuts, honey... the usual under 1 not advisable foods.
Most of it will end up on the floor anyway though.
I was always told to start off with certain foods to limit it incase of allergies then if they do show any allergies, it's easier to determine what it is but
She’s gone straight in at 3 big meals a day, each to their own but seems a lot to start off with. I get the blw bit of eating anything that doesn’t mean 3 massive portions from the day they turn 6 months.
Mine would literally try a few tastes at the age and barely actually ate anything! Maybe Herbie is the same but the problem is she’s making out like he’s eating full meals when it’s very unlikely he is. That’s when I think it’s damaging cos other Mums will worry they’re doing something wrong.
He reminds me of Bruce Bogtrotter from Matilda 
Also each to their own with babies sleeping....do what you can to make them sleep but after hearing her bang on for years about getting Vesper (I won't call her V! 
) to sleep and her being a bad sleeper she's training Herbie in the same practices - feeding to sleep lying down and in a double bed which right now looks quite unsafe, like her open front door. She said before he was a good sleeper, so why not allow him to sleep as safely as possible in a cot. Not every child is the same but she seems to be digging herself the grave she had with Vesper which she complained endlessly about when it all seems a bit lazy.

Also she is just lazy. I do think that mostly the rituals/routines that she’s redoing with Herbie that she did with vesper is actually because she enjoys being needed.
She did only start weaning Vesper off breastfeeding, co sleeping and going in her own bedroom when she wanted to start trying for a baby. Only a matter of months after vesper being in her own room, she was pregnant. Then she was back in with jim alone and so obviously Herbie fills the gap. Id actually say that it’s probably quite a lonely relationship she has. They’re very separate in how they live money wise, socialises etc. The kids seem to be her company and what fulfils her fully. There’s not a jot of romance in that house.
Yeah but the security guard at the end of the drive will stop any strange visitors
It amazes me that she tries to be seen as some kind of advocate for children's eating and feeding (whatvespereats
) with the amount and types of food she posts. I'm always astounded at not just the volume but the sheer amount of sugar and salt in the packed lunches she posts. Surely she doesn't eat that much?!
You can tell that the family are massive over eaters (I’m one myself and have a lot of weight to lose), however I make sure my kids eat right and see me moving more. Her and Jim (Jim especially) are massively overweight. He looks like a heart attack waiting to happen. You’d think that with their own struggles they wouldn’t over feed their kids or make food such a big part of their lives.It amazes me that she tries to be seen as some kind of advocate for children's eating and feeding (whatvespereats
He sleeps with vesper doesn’t he and she sleeps with herbie. She did mention it ages ago on her stories but I think vesper now has a new bed. How on earth did they baby make with vesper sharing with themAlso each to their own with babies sleeping....do what you can to make them sleep but after hearing her bang on for years about getting Vesper (I won't call her V!
They are basically setting their kids up to have lifelong weight issues by over feeding them as infants. Sad to see, especially when she's very publicly lost her battle with weight-loss.
I could not agree more. They need to be promoting a healthy balanced life style for the kids which it doesn’t look like they are currently doing.
