the caption of this being “don’t mess with a pregnant woman and her breakfast buffet” and the plate having two pancakes and a wee bit of bacon on it has cracked me up.. yeah Grace that’s a shocking spread🤦🏻‍♀️

She can't eat anything that is not pasteurised. It's dangerous for pregnant women.
No soft cheeses or pate.
Meats like salami and any semi raw meats are out too.

Thanks for answering. I get that, and those are not her everyday meals anyway, so I suspect there might be something else behind too. I was actually thrilled her finally going to eat some protein but the stake was for her husband only. She did have something which looked like meat with her pasta, but I couldn't hear because of the background noise at the restaurant. The girl lives on carbs.

The advice is different in different countries too, for instance in Japan sushi is obviously very common and pregnant women are advised to just be careful with where they source it if they're eating raw (sashimi). No restrictions on fish, but in the UK there's advice that states not to eat too much fish like tuna because of the mercury content.

Mind you, here in the UK we recently had a listeria outbreak in packaged sandwiches, which aren't on the NHS 'be careful' list and the only time I've got food poisoning is from a inappropriately reheated fishermans pie which is also not mentioned. 🤷‍♀️
 
Does anyone watch Mia Maples? I like her, I think she’s funny and clever with a decent mix of content but some very Grackle vibes. She’s 22 and married, very close to parents, Mom features heavily in the vids, husband who could be straight out of Book of Mormon and not a sniff of anything unwholesome. It’s never mentioned but I wonder if there’s a religion thing going on with her too.

(Hi 👋 I’ve the thread for ages but haven’t contributed because let’s face it, you've all got this covered without me butting in. I just wondered about thoughts about Mia who doesn’t have a thread, presumably because she’s so uncontroversial!)

She's not quite so young (thankfully she's 25) but I get strange vibes from Mia and defo think there's some religious element. Her husband was one of her brother's friends and they all seem very... interconnected as a family.

But Mia still feels so much more 'adult' than Grace. She travels, owns a business, has built a brand for herself, her wedding and relationship has been perfectly protected without secrecy or any hidden names (like Rick 🤢)

Grace just seems stuck at 15 even though she's bought a house, gotten married and now pregnant.

I feel like her dancing has hit a level somewhere beyond cringe that’s uncomfortable to watch. Why is she so joyless and grim? I get that pregnancy (and undereating, let’s be real) is taking its toll, but if we can’t fake it till we make it, why not just take it down a notch on the faking-it front?

I’m not talking about her appearance when I say how anyone could sleep with her is beyond me… the sheer cringe of it all
 
having a newborn is gonna give her such a shock omg I have a 5 month old and a super supportive partner and the first month or two was insaneeee, the tiredness is another level. she’s always complaining now so idk how she’s gonna cope ?? especially when they obv have such a trad relationship, she’s the stay at home wife and that I doubt he’d be helping much with his long hours

Congratulations, hope you're coping okay now! I'm still in the trenches with a 7 week old (pls tell me it gets easier), and I definitely second this. I knew it would be hard work but oh my god it is ridiculously difficult, even with a supportive partner. I was used to loads of time alone being able to do exactly as I pleased (apart from the 9-5 lol), and I think Grace will really struggle with not having the ample time to do silly dances and fuck about in supermarkets. Being alone all day every day with a newborn is haaaaaard, even when you do manage to get a good sleep!!
 
Grace’s insomnia has nothing to do with her being pregnant as it’s something she’s been suffering with ever since she left home. It has everything to do with her suppressing all her fears subconsciously and feeling very trapped and afraid. Again, I can E never bring myself to feel sorry for her as she’s chosen this lifestyle, but it would be great if she sought out help outside of the church.

Please please believe me when I say it gets easier! I personally didn’t like the tiny baby stage much as it was so hard with a colicky baby but once they get older and their little personality starts comes out and you get into the swing of things it gets so much easier! My baby is now 1 and yes there are still challenges with every new stage but my god it is the best thing ever, I just really ENJOY her 🥰 Hang in there you are already doing so well! ❤️

Ahhh that's so nice of you to say, thank you 💞 I'm trying not to wish his life away but I do think it'll be so much better even when I can get a laugh out of him! Best parts so far have been the odd rare smile and starting to try and reach for things, watching his development is fascinating. It's reassuring to hear that you are able to enjoy your baby more now. At the beginning it is pure survival mode, I don't think anyone can understand until they're in it!
 
Her cereal video she posted this morning, I cringe when pregnant women say “the baby told me they wanted this to eat” or “I’m having this because the baby wanted it” 😬

Also she’s so on the beg for a weetabix partnership, the tagging them and constant mention of them. Bore off Grace you can afford your own weetabix 😅

It feels like a dance someone in their 50s is doing while trying to be "cool" and "down with the kids" and failing dismally! And those facial expressions...
