Agree with so many of you- you 100% have to be real when it comes to talking about what motherhood is like. I just find her to talk about the negatives a lot, and on top of that act like talking about them is revolutionary. I don’t follow many influencers (someone mentioned Elle Darby above) so haven’t seen much of the gushing with love posts you mention, I personally found there was so much scaremongering before I became a parent ( maybe my friends are just negative pricks 😂) but I was almost surprised it wasn’t this hell i expected! Rambling like Ashley now but Basically trying to say a balanced view is needed for sure!! 🙌
 
Anyone else roll their eyes reading this
Alf sleeping through the night like what? 3 times? And all of a sudden she’s a expert 🤣

‘mama always knows best’ is this why she quite obviously had no clue what she was doing up until a month ago keeping him up to all hours no bedtime routine etc… yeah she really knew best

I always liked following her on instagram and it wasn’t until I came off social media that I realised she was one of the more negative pages that I followed. It was often dressed up as honesty but it was still getting me down. Yes motherhood is hard, I don’t think there has ever been a single mother say otherwise, but goodness me, her page reads as if she is the only mom ever to have graced the earth. She also didn’t like hearing people tell her “oh you just wait until…” she would always moan about people being negative and now it’s all she does. But I did admire and enjoy her body positivity content. I am someone who would quite happily hide in the shadows and had absolutely no self worth, so I appreciate seeing a normal body and it made me feel like I shouldn’t be revolted by myself.

*the sleep expert she consulted knew best and reinforced what everyone was telling her

she is vile🤮
 
Such a miserable witch. She said something the other day about how if you don’t find motherhood hard then just wait as will be soon. Which was out of order.
I have a toddler and a 13 year old and I’ve not struggled yet, possibly because I don’t follow this whole martyr thing that she does. I hate the doom and gloom, it’s ok if you’re struggling sometimes, talk about it that’s fine but don’t be telling people that they will struggle because that ain’t necessarily true.
she’s so bitter, “having a good sleeper is only temporary” oh duck off ash (I’m still waiting for that sleep regression)
 
She goes on about her attachment parenting bible. But the last thing you should do is broadcast that you feel like your child was the biggest mistake of your life. I would say 99% of parents have had WHAT THE duck moments where you wonder wtf your life is now. But you must never ever let on to your kids that you resent their being or that you think they are a mistake. That’s a straight path to becoming a fucked up adult. (I say this as someone who’s dad clearly never wanted me, I am on my 30s and still emotionally damaged because of him)
I just hope and pray that Alf never sees the tit she posts on insta. Poor little sausage ❤️

I have soooo much to say about her post

negative posts like this should be banned ‘honest motherhood’

no imagine your child seeing this when their grown ‘I regret becoming a Mum’

she would defend it by saying it’s not about Alf as a person but being a ‘Mum’ when actually they come hand in hand

IMO she has gone through/is going through PND. But she is so far up her own hole, playing the victim card, she can’t see it. Yes we all struggle to a certain degree as new mums, but I can, hand on my heart say, her idea of ‘honest motherhood’ is not the version I went through... I suffered really badly from postpartum anxiety, like fear my baby would die in their Sleep... I couldn’t have given 2 shites if I never got back to work again... but I could admit that to absolutely anyone, the dog on the street. I didn’t spend my days facefucking myself to insta, I spent time researching how to bring myself to a place where I didn’t feel that. Or enjoying my baby. Just to add, my first was also unplanned, yet however, I now have a 2nd, same age as Alf, and I don’t feel like Ive lost part of me and who I am... if anything I’ve grown..I don’t resent my kids, and if I’m lucky enough, would love another...... the me from 10 years ago would have said I was talking shite.... yet here I am, living my best life since 2019.... I know my career will be there for me when my littles are in school.

This is why it’s so hard to be honest about how you feel about motherhood, I have friends going through massive struggles and feel like I can’t be honest about how much I’m struggling because I should just feel lucky to have a baby.
You can’t please everyone with what you post / say, and while yes being honest about how hard it can be to have a baby is hard for some it can also provide a comfort for others.

I’m the first person to moan about my kids but all I’m saying is her moaning is relentless and constant when it doesn’t need to be. I’m all for the honest motherhood posts but she’s so negative and tries to bring everyone else down.
 
So the grandparents have driven 5 hours round trip to pick Alf up so they could have a night alone. Totally speculating here but the fact the grandparents do so much in regards to giving them some time alone makes me think there is trouble in paradise and they are trying to help them reconnect. My parents are down the road and absolutely amazing but they’re not offering to drive hours so that me and my husband can have yet another date night. If they thought/knew we were having relationship issues they definitely would though and they’d be offering to have the kids much more often!

Going back a few days now sorry, but she’s literally the worst brand ambassador. Why do brands work with her? For example the Sky event she went to. She couldn’t even remember the name of the one show she thought looked good. Great promo there. Someone else I follow was there and told followers about loads of new shows coming up.
