As much as I agree shea a bit old for a jumper my daughters a year and a half and 25lb and shea average weight for her age, but I do think she could really be playing with her instead of shoving her in a jumper lazy parentingNearly 1 year old. What is she doing in that jumperoo? The maximum weight limit is 25lb - Mabel can’t be far off that surely. Why would you risk it? Or want to limit your child’s activities to something she’s clearly outgrown?!

Looks like she's having a great time getting messy and having fun and playing with different toys.Has anyone seen Victoria's Instagram of Mabel at nursery? Melts my heart to see her having fun in a child friendly (probably not the right wording?) Environment
This irritates me SO much, I think it’s so unfair to stick a baby in one of these damn things once they become mobile and want to explore. How would she like to be suck in it when she wants to move around. It’s pure lazy. I know someone personally who does this and it really grinds my gears. Just because you can’t be arsed to keep an eye on your child!!
Its also complete bullshit because mabel is always in dresses ect. She only said that to come across as the edgy “im not like other girls” sortIt really annoys me how Mia doesn’t like dressing Mabel “girly” in today’s video talking about a cardigan her saying she wants to “de-girly” it!
Why?! Mabel is a little girl why can’t she dress like one? Why does everything have to be Mia’s aesthetic!
Because she puts herself and what she wants to do above her child. My baby would never of walked if we didn’t encourage her as she sofa surfed and was happy doing so, hopefully she’ll learn eventually. Bet she was pissed when Victoria posted the pic of her holding Mabel and the cats saying she’s struggling with 3 childrenIn me as the logs you always see Mabel walking holding onto the bed and walking around but you never see like Mia holding Mabel’s hands and helping her to like walk or teaching her to walk (I genuinely don’t know what that’s called but do you get what I mean) like instead of Mabel always being in the jumperroo or always doing independent play or always just helping herself Learn to walk around the room. Like why doesn’t mia do it with her.
She has no interest in playing with Mabel at all, Doing anything with/for Mabel seems like such an effort for Mia. It’s sad that her own daughter seems like such an inconvenience to her. Her own hobbies will always come first and that obvious from watching her videosIn me as the logs you always see Mabel walking holding onto the bed and walking around but you never see like Mia holding Mabel’s hands and helping her to like walk or teaching her to walk (I genuinely don’t know what that’s called but do you get what I mean) like instead of Mabel always being in the jumperroo or always doing independent play or always just helping herself Learn to walk around the room. Like why doesn’t mia do it with her.
It probably is the correct wording tbf at least she’s not playing right next to a heavy mirror, climbing on top of Mia’s metal nail box...the list could go on!Has anyone seen Victoria's Instagram of Mabel at nursery?

Long time lurker here. I very rarely comment on many threads. However, I’ve just watched Mia’s nursery haul video and honestly her hypocrisy about primark is insane. Firstly primark is not “crappy”! Ethically it’s not a great company, but many parents cannot chose to buy their children clothes from more expensive stores. Or if they are like me, can afford to buy from more expensive places, still shop in primark, they have some really cute and inexpensive things for children, and it only makes sense to try not to waste money on expensive baby clothes as babies grow so quickly. Plus babies are supposed to get dirty, and need comfort; they do not need to look fashionable. They are not an accessory, they are not dolls, they are growing babies, they will grow out of clothes quickly and they will get dirty. Why is she wasting money, when she’s claiming to save for a house?! She has gotten Mabel so many plain T-shirts from Zara, that she claims are going to be crappy clothes for nursery, and they all look like things you can get from primark for about £2!
Also, I understand baby clothes do not need to be gendered but her obsession with buying unisex and, in my honest opinion, “boyish” looking clothing is strange. She claims she doesn’t like “girly” outfits, yet I often see Mabel wearing “girly” clothes. I feel like this conscious effort she is making to not buy “girl clothes” derives from the fact she wants a son. How is she going to feel when Mabel is a walking talking toddler who likes Peppa Pig T-shirts, Disney princess clothing or bright pink sparkly dresses with unicorns on? No matter how much she tries to avoid dressing Mabel like that, Mabel will get her own personality, and will want to wear things appropriate for her age in time. I had a friend from my parent and baby group who said she wouldn’t ever let her daughter wear pink, princess dresses, or Disney clothes and guess what ?! Both our daughters are 4 years old and both want to wear clothes aimed at children their age! I’m not saying all girls will like pink unicorns and Disney princesses, but it’s highly likely that Mabel will want to wear her what her friends are. So Mia should expect that to happen, and encourage Mabel to wear what she wants, not what is going to fit her Instagram feed! Right now Mia should just focus on buy clothing that is warm, practical and comfortable for Mabel, rather than treating her like a doll and getting angsty with her when she gets messy! Mia is going to need to learn quickly that Mabel is not an accessory for Instagram, she’s growing very quickly and will soon no longer want to wear impractical clothing because it looks good.
