Does Ash ever make a post that doesn't involve her being the victim, whether that be a Covid/lockdown victim, a poor mum victim, a breastfeeding / pumping victim, a fashion victim, a gas leak victim, a holiday dilemma victim, a feminist victim, or maybe just a bloody victim victim?

No. Never.
 
I think loads of the covid hypocrisy is awful and many many people have every right to be so very angry at how they suffered because of it - Ash is not bleeping one of them! She laboured at home like a lot of women do in the early stages, then went in in established labour and had her partner with her the whole time. She’s not normal she really isn’t.

Don’t know about anyone else but my husband was a bloody nuisance when I had my children-I wouldn’t have cared if he was there or not tbh -I was all about the drugs & midwives ( oh & the tea and toast after I was induced was probs the best food I’d ever had).
Sorry I’ve gone a bit Mumsnet.

I never got my tea and toast- last c sec of the day and everyone went home 😆 a Porter came in to move us to the ward at 8pm and at that point I knew all hope was lost and I cried and he thought it was the emotion of the day so he patted my hand 😂 DAMN THE PATRIARCHY!!!

That’s the most normal thing she’s ever done.
 
I love the fact she thinks she’ll be sitting around a pool with two children. She’ll duck Alf off to Tommy
but I pray that Ada starts crawling just before they go. Then Alfs just shitting everywhere cos Ashley hasn’t got a bleeping clue about her own child.

I reckon NNB is going with them or they’re going with TNB parents not in laws.
 
Definitely think they’re on the brink of splitting up or have already done so

or at the very least - that’s what she wants people to think!

Does Alfie have the gross motor skills needed for potty training? Can he jump up and down with both feet? Can he walk upstairs one foot/one step? Can he do crossing midline activities, like when kids put one foot in front of the other when they walk on a wall. Has he ever walked on a wall?!

Being ready for potty training is about so much more than knowing you need a wee, I doubt he'll be ready when they go on holiday.
 
Slightly off topic - but does anyone suspect maybe NNB gets some kind kind of renumeration for her services, as in, she is an unofficial paid nanny for Ash?? Maybe cash?

NNB has given up so much of her life/time that it made me wonder whether there is some kind of arrangement in place....

Also don't you love that Ash said she won't recommend those slippers as they are uncomfortable... but still happy to put an afflink on them!!! She is vile.

To be fair I’m not sure how jumping up and down with both feet or balancing on a wall is relevant to potty training 😅 Knowing the feeling of when they need a wee/poo and being able to ask for the potty or take themselves to the potty is a totally different skill. Even if he can’t pull his trousers and up down by himself initially and needs help to do so, he can still be potty trained.

I feel like Ash doubts Alf’s ability more than enough and there’s no need for us to do so either. I would back him to potty train with the right support and loving guidance. Sadly he won’t get that from Ash though.

He’ll be fully potty trained when they come back,don’t you know? ( probs by the staff in the kids club he will inevitably spend his time in)

Those skills show that the child is physically ready to potty train. Activities where they have to cross the midline like walking on a wall or throwing a ball side to side help their dexterity when they learn to clean themselves on the toilet (I know that comes in the later stages of potty training). Jumping and walking up the stairs shows the balance skill has been developed which I think from memory shows that bladder control is developing as well. These skills don't just help with the physical aspects of dressing and undressing, it's helping all parts of their development which is why it's so frustrating to see she doesn't help him to learn these things

She’s way too lazy to try potty training. For some reason she thinks it’s going to be easy on holiday but she’s too stupid to realise the logistics and she’ll just stick him in a nappy for dinners and all the travelling home anyway.
She says it doesn’t bother her when he potty trains but trying on their holiday screams desperate to attempt it before he’s technically 3 imo.

How funny is it that she tries to make friday her busiest day now so she can justify NNB having the kids every week 😂
She stories more than ever on her “day with the littles” and there’s never a sight of them.

How are they going to cope in London? Surely it’s too far for NNB to pop round all the time. Unless they’re both in full time childcare - but then that will be mega expensive

I think you’re right. Her timelines are always all over the shop anyway (two under two? 😂) but she wants to be able to say he was potty trained at two. At some point in the future she’ll use it as proof to brag about how “advanced” he is. Then depending on the day, potty training will either have been the most awful and stressful experience of her life and no one warned her, or it was blissful and easy because he’s so clever and was so ready.

I agree that all of these skills are required in order for a child to take themselves off to the toilet or potty completely independently. But that doesn’t happen for many children until much later than Alf’s age, and doesn’t stop them being potty trained at all. It simply makes it easier for a parent if a child can do all those things, which is precisely why Ash will claim he’s not ready now.

My little boy couldn’t jump with both feet until he was 3.5 and still goes up stairs one step at a time slowly now. He’s naturally nervous and has been later to develop physical skills. But he could give you a simple explanation as to how a plane flies and how a steam engine works when he was 2.5 so I think it would have been undignified to leave him sitting in his own tit just because his balance was off and he couldn’t pull his trousers down 😅

Ash will find any possible reason to put off making any effort with Alf so I won’t give her any more.
 
She clearly must think that Alf is ready for potty training for her to be suggesting that not only will they do it on holiday but that it would be 'complete' by the time they get home, and it's entirely possible that he could potty train in that time if they were at home in a familiar environment and they applied consistent effort to doing it but somehow I doubt that Ashley really understands how to be consistent with anything - she can't even recount true life events with consistency.
Ashley probably isn't ready for the inconvenience of potty training, especially when it's making an effort with her son.
