did anybody see her stories promoting the podcasts with her baby in the sling and his head leaning so far back, he was almost falling out of the sling? it was really uncomfortable. i don't have children but i'm certain thats not how you hold a newborn? (screenshot attached)

also no posts about black lives matter. shocking.

Definitely that was a not so humble brag

and @Truthslayer don’t let this BS make you feel inadequate. To be honest if you batch make food I can’t imagine it saving that much time in the long run anyway. And like you said it’ll be used for such a short time, you’d be better off spending that money on a treat for yourself

Well she posted a picture of her and her baby for black lives matter so she has form for this kind of thing! On her latest story she says Zachary was ‘late’ for his nap. He’s 3 months old! Babies that age sleep when they sleep! There’s no point trying to have routines and nap times because you will always be disappointed because guess what, the baby doesn’t know it’s ‘time’ for their nap.

Also that cookie looks horrendous!

30 minutes late for his nap! As you say babies don’t have a schedule at that age. They nap and eat when they want to. She clearly just wants the baby to fit around her life - you could just tell the annoyance that he had messed up her plans!

 

[Megatron1298]

Wow that’s so shady! Like what would compel you to be that sneaky, I don’t get it.

 

[It is what it is]

She can feed her kid however but it’s constant complaining about something she brought into the world and how see seems to not have the life before that really troubles me. She comes across as so anxious and desperate to please about everything! The poor little kid is going to pick up on it!

Still not announced the name of her son even though she gave it away By accident in an insta story! Is she trying to create a big build up? Is she trying to be exclusive??? She isn’t a celebrity.

15-18 months usually say around 20 words (may not be clear), 18 months - 2 years up to 50 words and beginning to put 2 words together

Her notes were pretty basic as well. Her first bullet points are the four signs your baby is ready to wean, seems a bit pointless if she’s saying she knows that already. It’s like she wrote stuff down to make it look more impressive than it is.

 

[MakeDamnSure]

Being hungrier, wanting more milk and night waking are NOT signs your baby is ready for weaning She’s so smug about the fact he held the spoon and ‘fed himself’ which is going to make other mums just starting out with weaning disappointed when their babies don’t do the same!

And now she’s changed her post hi Rhi

 

[Begborrowsteal]

Tbh I never knew any of that stuff until recently

Thats what I mean. These IG mums prance about in a nappy and plead enlightened knowledge but they arent sharing the real gritty truths

 

[Rosie878]

I’ve muted her for now as being a new Mum myself I find a lot of her content recently quite triggering. Just had a quick look and she definitely needs serious help. How on earth does she think she’s a good advert? And what are her husband and friends doing to help her?

Same here, I never look at her content now. I’ve got a 6 week old (and a 5 year old). Still can’t believe that stupid weaning chart she did

 

[Truthslayer]

I can’t be bothered to listen - does anyone want to give a summary!?

 

[tarahalls]

I reported the coconut water ad to the ASA. Their guidelines clearly say that the 'ad' needs to be upfront and prominent, which this certainly isn't. I'm just fed up of her getting away with this, it's not the first time she's done it.

I did initially mention to Rhiannon that she might want to consider editing it as it's not very clear and could be misleading to followers. She blocked me, of course.

I wanted to report her too! How do you do it?

 

[TGreece76]

Oh here we go with a humble brag disguised as support for breastfeeding post. Is she competing with Lucy Meck? Because she seems to struggle to make it though a day without mentioning that she breastfeeds, and it’s really hard, but she’s managed to get to 6 months? Wish these bellends would just shut up and feed their baby, breast or bottle it really doesn’t matter or make a difference in the grand scheme of things.

 

[TGreece76]

I don’t believe she had psychosis either. She’s a drama queen. Everyone feels like their going mad a few weeks after having a baby. I kept diagnosing myself with horrific diseases and crying to the midwife - it turned out to be mastitis and a pile (), it’s just emotions and hormones. If she genuinely had psychosis she wouldn’t be able to balance work, socialising, exercise, looking groomed all the time, the way she does.

I still think she’s just bitter she didn’t get her idyllic birth experience. The perfectionist in her can’t stand it. She’s a total control freak - I think that’s where all the anxiety stems from, because you can’t control your baby’s behaviour and have to be adaptable/flexible. The ridiculous lists re weaning

Rhi needs to remember what she’s posted! In her last story she says she didn’t announce she had given birth for 2 weeks because she wasn’t ready to share it. Zachary was born on the 19th of April, she announced it on the 24th. I know she’s a nutritionist not a mathematician but that’s 5 days Rhi! She also did a post about being 10 days post partum! If I remember correctly, she also did a few stories whilst she was still in hospital. What’s the point of lying about this?

she’s always being sneaky

 

[Rosie878]

Could it make them more picky if they get used to such a wide variety at each meal time? I hate to use the phrase ‘rod for your own back’ but...

 

[Rosie878]

On the one hand I don’t mind women sharing their birth stories to help normalise and just open the discussions up the realities. But let’s not pretend that the whole oh I never knew I’d be leaving the hospital in a diaper thing is new, Every blue tick I follow on insta that’s had a baby has done the token I’m in a diaper too post. Very attention seeking.

Yes I think they see it as breaking down barriers and being honest. Funny how nearly anything to do with being honest and gritty in the insta community when it comes to women means we have to expose vulnerable parts/aspects of our bodies. Not very empowering if you ask me. Although obvs it’s absolutely their right to do so.

 

[MakeDamnSure]

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.

 

[Truthslayer]

Regarding her testing for allergens( ie peanut butter) on stories today - as a HCP you'd think she'd know that to develop an allergy you need to be exposed to the potential allergen on more than 1 occasion...therefore his first taste of peanut butter will not prove an allergic response- it will be the second exposure

She needs to stay in her lane! Having constantly said people should only take advice from qualified professionals she is now giving arguably dangerous information out! She’s a muppet. An eating disordered, self obsessed muppet at that.
