Omg finally a thread for her!
Gotta get this out:
Did anyone find it weird that for someone whose been struggling with infertility for so many years, in the video where she tells her family and friends nobody really reacts like that was the case? Like its just kind of a standard 'she's pregnant' reaction, which seemed kind of weird for a couple that tried for so long?? I feel maybe her sister slightly alluded to it, but Sams reaction was like 'but you were so scared to be a mom' which doesnt feel like something you'd say to someone who'd struggled with infertility in your initial reaction? I just found it all very very weird. Even Zachs reaction didnt really give away that they'd been struggling with it?
Her YouTube channel used to literally be an infertility channel, so she did struggle for many years. BUT. One thing that annoys me is her claiming that she was infertile for 15 years. She was counting from the time her periods went weird, iirc, not from when she started trying. In total I think she tried for a baby for maybe 2-3 years or so, and then she and Zach made the decision to move on because they couldn't afford IVF. Fine. But it feels like a slap in the face to sell this 15 year story when it was a more standard 2-3 or so.
I struggled to conceive for about a year in total, and I was still suddenly *shocked Pikachu* when I actually got pregnant. So I get it. The thing I find weirder now is her discussing whether or not she'll have a second as though it'll be as easy as snapping her fingers. After a year of struggling, I don't consider a second baby to be a foregone conclusion, but now she has money for IVF so maybe that makes it feel different.
Labour & Delivery - for someone who used to ne a doula, her reaction to not being able to give birth at the birth centre was completely ridiculous. I get that emotions are running high but she of all people should be well emotionally prepared for the fact that births largely do not go as planned? Obviously her son having difficulties was awful and that must have been so scary, but her reaction to being moved to a hospital was so weird. Plus at the start of the video she does a disclaimer about appreciating healthcare workers, but implying she was saying this as she was about to retell a negative experience with a particular individual, but then went on to say how great everyone was?
Her labor experience was FUCK*NG ABSURD. Her midwives should be charged with reckless behavior. She and her baby could've died. They let her labor for hours and hours when they knew she had muconium in her amniotic fluid, and then she drove 45 minutes to a hospital where there would be more midwives? It's a miracle that that birth didn't end in tragedy.
I had a totally unexpected sudden water break at 33 weeks. I really, desperately wanted a lovely water birth with my midwives. But when I realized that I wasn't going to get that, I happily did whatever it took to get my baby out safely. I don't really judge Kristi for this, though. I think her midwives were idiots.
Post-partum: Specifically the part where she talked about being depressed, and her staying up late frantically doing research on it to feel better, and then saying how getting out in the fresh air for walks and finding something to distract her has really helped, in a way that she's clearly only just discovered this and was surprised it helped. She genuinely framed it like it was a surprising fact that most people probably wont know. But she has been depressed and undergoing treatment for depression for YEARS before the baby i thought? Was that all a lie? Because you cannot tell me that for someone who claims to do so much research on everything she never came across the suggestion 'go outside more and do regular exercise' as something that can help with depression. Or that no Dr ever suggested that. Or that she never saw a mental health post on IG or a video on YT. Plus, she suffers from anxiety and cluster headaches and again... for both of those things, day 1 treatment from medical professionals normally stresses the importance of regular exercise?
This is probably the bit that annoyed me the most. Kristi, if you actually have anxiety and depression, GET HELP. Get a therapist, get medication, get help. Otherwise it just sounds like you had normal first-time parent jitters that you felt obligated to pathologize and turn into a much bigger deal. I got some PPA and PPD. I talked with my doctor and my therapist and they put me on Zoloft. End of story.
I'm genuinely worried that Kristi is turning into an anti-vaxx mom before our eyes, given what she said about Zoloft in the breastmilk.
Anyway -- she's exhausting me. I feel like she turns every minor thing into a medical emergency where you go:
1. If this really happened the way you said it did, you need to get help, or
2. If it didn't stop lying.
every story is an update on how hot she is and I'm fed up.
I realise I might sound a bit insensitive but I know tons and tons of people who’ve had babies (myself included) and not one of them had acted in the manner she has. I genuinely don’t think she’s cut out for kids 
I love my son more than anything in the world but, if anything, I feel pride and hope for him when I look to the future. I mean I don't want to rush time or anything, and I'm sure I'll have some emotions flowing when he time comes for him to live his life, but I just look forward to seeing how he grows and what kind of man he'll be, what he'll do with his life and what will make him happy and fulfilled.
