He probably has 2 naps because he wakes at 4am but they do nothing to help him. His poor sleep could also be a sign of something else going on but instead of looking after him she just moans and pushes him away.
the trip to holland is weird but the worst thing about her as a parent for me is the way she talks about her first born. Zero warmth. Sneering. Lack of empathy.
and then her sleeping Ada angel. It’s really gross and I can’t believe more people don’t give her tit about it
most parents who’ve been away will then do something special with the child they’ve been apart from after - a morning just the two of them, a day off from work (even with Ada around) but no. Literally nothing like that.
Ashley can’t take maternity leave but will go on holiday to see her sister when she feels like it. It’s embarrassing.

Also I think she’s always been threatened by her sister’s ability to parent. It’s why she always goes on about how amazing Jasper is compared to Alf (trying to make it out like she just got unlucky with a child who doesn’t sleep, eat, play, have a routine or hit milestones - nothing to do with parenting OF COURSE) but really she hates that her sister copes and Ashley doesn’t. Because Ash needs to be the expert in everything.
but she doesn’t WANT to be the expert in parenting an older child because that involves sacrifice and hard work.
so I think this was a last minute trip to gloat about her perfect Ada.
2 weeks ago she couldn’t handle a trip for a wedding but now she’s abroad? I think ada started sleeping through and she wants to rub it in her sister’s face and play the “experienced second timer” role whilst she can. It’s all about feeling superior and being number one with Ash.
she literally couldn’t handle 2 children on her own for more than an hour but she’s now “helping” family with their kids? Hmmm
