Which is worse in a way because as a nutritionist who works with people with eating disorders, why would you pick your angles to purposely make yourself look scarily thin?
a lot of influencers love to play the “i’m a struggling mum with little help card” as it resonates with followers, but in reality they have loads of help. I unfollowed after the awful weaning advice she was giving but didn’t Rhi have a paid Nanny?!I always feel like either her husband doesn't help out enough, or she doesn't allow him to, as she's a bit of a martyr. I say "a bit"...
she started weaning earlier than the current recommendation of 6 months and was forcing 3 meals a day on her 6/7 month old even though he was getting severe nappy rash (assumption was so much food was going in it was upsetting his belly/causing frequent poos) and talking about how each meal had to be balanced etc. My kids are the same age and my youngest was still on the “first tastes” stage. Milk is their main source of nutrition before 1 but she was desperate to get him on three meals as quickly as possible. There would be people following her copying her as she’s a nutritionist but she was going against best practice advice on quite a few things from what I rememberYes, I feel that she is in a fortunate position with nanny and being able to afford nursery too.
What was the awful weaning advice?!
Nothing positive there about her husband… maybe he’s one of those asshat dudes who doesn’t lift a finger for the kids cause he works 12 hour days in the office).Your baby's first solid foods
Get advice on starting solids (weaning), including when to start, what foods to give your baby, and which milks to offer as they grow.www.nhs.uk
For accuracy I’ll leave the NHS link about weaning in case there are any new parents reading this thread are interested

She is so strange posting stuff like this. I’ve been refollowing the last couple of days out of curiosity and it’s safe to say she has not improved I assume the arguments at home are with the husband, so bizarre to announce to the world
That link (just above where you linked) says 3 meals a day by 7 months. Personally I just did small bits of food rather than complete meals as the NHS also mentions there. But anyway don’t want to get into tit for tat. My point was it is individualised, some people get given individualised advice by NHS dieticians, 6 month olds won’t explode if you give them something to eat 3 times a day and Rhi is projecting her messed up eating onto her kids.).Your baby's first solid foods

I know people with severely refluxy babies who have also been advised to start weaning 'early' - but none of this is the case with Rhi. We're not talking about people who are acting on medical advice, we're talking about a supposed nutritionist who loves to follow the guidance and the evidence. Not only has she not followed the general guidance, she's shared it with an audience that relies on her for sound nutritional advice and info.That link (just above where you linked) says 3 meals a day by 7 months.

She’s just too unnecessarily restrictive and rule book driven with everything from eating to naps.
Yes you worded it much better than I did, (my baby had severe reflux and early weaning helped) and very good point that she doesn’t have a reason to do this.I know people with severely refluxy babies who have also been advised to start weaning 'early' - but none of this is the case with Rhi.

she is unhinged!!! 'human fault' because the squirrel was hit in daylight. I don't think anyone is out there trying to hit squirrels or birds what an absolute melt.This can’t be normal getting this hysterical over a dead squirrel?!?!
i don't even think it was dead? just hurt?This can’t be normal getting this hysterical over a dead squirrel?!?!
Omg yeah I just reread it and I think you’re right - I assumed because she was so hysterical it was deadi don't even think it was dead? just hurt?
he’s me worried about sending pictures of my baby/toddlers missing trousers to direct family members, and she’s posting her kid naked to thousands she doesn’t even know. I really hope they bring in protection laws against mum influencers soon. Surely these kids will be horrified when they find outPosting naked pictures of her youngest again (covered by an emoji ) but doesn’t show her oldest because she is concerned for his privacy. Honestly makes no bleeping sense! I’ve seen so many times that there is software that can remove emojis from pictures and I don’t know how true that is but why take the risk? Nobody needs to see a nearly naked picture of your children! Why do influencers do this again and again? She cries her eyes out at a squirrel on the road but offers up nearly naked pictures of her children to any old internet perv! Knocks me sick.
