The stuck on boobs look frankly absurd in that workout story - but I'm three months postpartum and have gone from a pert and perky C-cup to a rather saggy (and leaky) F-cup so that could be jealousy talking...

I’m nearly 6 weeks postpartum and working out is the furtherest thing from my mind right now! Agree she looks great but the workout story is very narcissistic to show off exactly how good she looks. I guess that’s what social media is right

I get really terrible second hand embarrassment when insta influencers start going on about how awesome this "new thing" they have is, when it is so obviously an ad. Definitely should be used to it by now but its still cringeworthy!

Just the way she captioned it saying “I finally got round to showing you this” makes me think that bugaboo were annoyed that she hadn’t done an ad for it yet! Sounds like they gifted her the ant too so we can expect another cringey ad for that too.
I would just feel like a complete twit getting my OH to film me walking with a pram and then doing an ad for it in the middle of a park! Oh wow it’s got a peephole so I can check he’s still asleep! It’s parent facing anyway so I could just look with my eyes! Of all the features to point out that’s a bit of a weird one as that is more for when they are older and you face them away from you. Bugaboo prams are quite expensive and she didn’t do a great job of selling it imo. If I was trying to choose between that and say a similar but slightly cheaper pram that wouldn’t have made me choose the bugaboo.

Agree the Bugaboo ad was rubbish! Just seen her stories, she’s complaining about her baby’s 8 week jabs and how unimpressed she was by her check up...wow she really does act like a princess. We all have good and bad experiences with the NHS but she sounds like she’s being a diva over something quite minor. If she needed a longer check or had issues, she should say and arrange another appointment when her baby is calmer - use common sense rather than hop straight onto your stories to whinge to strangers about it...

I agree! Also I don’t know why it couldn’t wait until she got home to put a story up about it, she in the middle of a busy road trying to squeeze out a tear about it.
I’ve had 2 children and have never had an examination of my own at the same time as their jabs although I guess maybe because of covid they are trying to limit the amount of trips to the hospital so that’s why they have done this. Regardless of this, babies scream at their jabs it doesn’t matter how it’s done. You’ve just got to get on with it!

I do kinda sympathise with her, I haven’t taken my baby for the jabs yet but can imagine how stressful it can be when you are settling your baby and then trying to talk to doctors and whatever else at the same time. Key difference, I’d probably call my mum and have a cry, she stops in the middle of the street to have a whinge to complete strangers on the internet!

My check-up was very brusque too. I think they have to be. I mean who really is fully ok with a 6 week old baby?! It’s such a crazy time. They don’t have the time to hold the hand of every person so they have to focus on the worst cases. It’s not ideal, but Rhiannon is someone with a support network, wealth and her own therapist. I would rather they fobbed her off than someone with less support.

Every time I’ve had my 6 week check it’s been very quick! The last time after my c-section they didn’t even check my scar just asked me if it ‘seemed ok’! In all honesty even if they had done her examination first, he still would have been screaming. Babies don’t like being injected with needles funnily enough and it still would have been a rush, he would just have been screaming while she was trying to get him dressed, get all her stuff together and go. Unfortunately every time I’ve had jabs with both my children it’s always a bit of a panicky rush they just don’t have time for you to sit there and comfort your baby until they calm down.

I’m starting to wonder if she has PND. No shame in it if she does, and as stated above she has a support network and the wealth to get the help she needs. I think she’s lost her way a bit with her account. She’s gone from preachy nutritionist to over sharing her private life.

Yeah she could have, she didn’t have an easy birth (not that there ever is an ‘easy’ birth) and it must be so hard for anyone having a newborn in these times where you can’t have your family round for support. I really feel though, if she has just taken time off of Instagram to just have this time with her baby without having the need to project the image of perfection all the time she would have felt better for it. Trying to be perfect all the time just feeds the idea that you’re failing because you’re not perfect, no one is! And she’s not failing, no new mum is. Everyone is just winging it really which is why it’s really damaging to see people like her on Instagram baking and working out and making it look easy.
I agree about her page, she needs to stick to nutrition on her page and maybe have a separate account for her everyday stuff

Bit weird that she has put on her story about recording her podcast thanking chessie king for looking after her little boy. I assume that means chessie was in her house looking after the baby as he is only 8 weeks old. I don’t follow her so is she from a single household? Unless she has formed a bubble with chessie which can only be done if she is on her own then that would be breaking lockdown rules wouldn’t it?

It appears influencers have their own rules. They are all at it.

Amen to this!!

As for Chessie babysitting - outrageous! Not just because it’s a blatant breach of lockdown rules but also because unless she’s seen Chessie before she’s basically left a newborn baby with a stranger with no prior socialisation which will be so confusing for the wee bubba!

I thought the whole point of putting your baby in a sling is so they are supported and you can be hands free. She is walking around with his head dangling around again to the point where she is having to hold his head.
