I don’t think it’s a proper comeback either, can you imagine the backlash ‘Disgraced racist instamum Clemmie Hooper attempts under the radar social media comeback during pandemic scare’ etc etc and what would her brand be now? I don’t think making her offering 90% midwifery/women’s health related would work because her credibility is shot to pieces and she’s not trustworthy or likeable. In fact she seems like a female misogynist. She also doesn’t want the kind of following that would be on the table for her now... all of this was, she thought, a one way ticket to bona fide celebrity and that is now never going to happen is it! She must be seething as the opportunities some of her old crew are getting. I don’t think her ego could handle feeling like an underachiever compared to them. But oh for the beef with CB’s mates I’d like to see Clemmie return!

Yes! She's RTed some bits around pregnancy during covid which is weird, suspect that's just to make her popping up appear more normal? Like when you send a risky text and then say some other tit around it to pad it out, like the fluff absorbs the shock of the tit nugget you just sent?

The reality for pregnant women right now is pretty bleeping bleak and we certainly do not need a classist racist greedy guts to come help us. A £150 pleather backpack isn't going to reverse the months of worry we have ahead of us!! Our reality is no IRL midwife appts, scans at hospitals in lock down, no in person NCT (or local mother groups etc), no IRL pregnancy yoga or the other fluffy stuff you're meant to enjoy as a pregnant woman/couple. They've just said how our births are gonna be a 5 min affair with us leaving the units as soon as physically possible, home births entirely scrapped apparently. I'm 2 CA125 blood tests behind schedule. I don't know how we're gonna furnish the baby's room either? And a car seat so she can come home?! We're all having to adjust significantly, this isn't a moan at all as I am hugely grateful I'm so safeguarded and cared for by the NHS who are beyond wonderful, but our situation isn't fixed by the 'expertise' of a woman who's only got a few years of actual experience under her belt?!

I actually really hope she doesn't make a re-appearance because it'd be like shooting fish in a barrel for them wouldn't it, a load of really worried women at their most vulnerable, hormonal/emotional & bored sat at home with nothing else to do & no higher authority (their actual MW or mums they meet through groups) to ask for advice from... & for the very privileged minority of us, more disposable income as we're not commuting or socialising = the perfect audience to flog needless tit to. It's ghastly to even type that out, but I bet it's crossed their minds.

Hey lovely! I’m also pregnant and looking at facing this same rather strange reality. I just wanted to send you a big virtual hug - it’s not quite the joyful time we all hoped for, but keeping ourselves and babies healthy is all we can hope for at the moment. ❤️❤️

omg CONGRATS!! How far along are you? How have you found it all?? You must be social isolating as well, how is it?

And thank you my love, at least we will he looked after - we’re getting what we need not necessarily what we want and that is enough so there’s nothing to mind really is there! X
 
I really really feel for you pregnants. I had a very anxious and difficult pregnancy (Ivf twins) and I can’t imagine going through it when things are so tenuous in the nhs. They will ensure you are safe though. I think though that births hardly ever go to plan anyway and it’s about them being safe rather than wonderful and like I said, they will ensure this happens. All the feels for you mamas! As they say on insta.

I had a crappy, anxious pregnancy and newborn twins were a piece of piss in comparison so eye on the prize!!

I’ve got 4 weeks to go till due date (so staring down the barrel of giving birth in the peak of the virus!) This is our second, so we have a car seat but no Moses basket - new baby will be in the pram for bed till we can ours back! 🙈

I’m not usually one for hypno-anything, but have been reading hypnobirthing stuff and following an online course which is just helping to relax.

Sorry to derail the SODs! Simon is a bellend (now we’re back on track!)

Oh my god congrats + wow, that is insanely soon & amongst all the real chaos, I'm so sorry :( ! Please keep us up to date with how you are getting on though? I'm glad you mentioned hypnobirthing because I've been considering buying some online classes from the woman I listen to for pregnancy yoga but I've been scared they'll induce medical anxiety, which is silly isn't it. I'll brave it now, thank you!

+ SOD relevant: We have a potentially exciting week ahead of us all guys, waiting for Clem to scuttle down from the attic again! I'm split 50/50 between the bleeping cheek of it & YES, THE DRAMA OF IT!

The hypnobirthing thing is definitely worth a go, though I started with the instahun’s fave - Holly de Cruz and found her voice really annoying. I’ve got The Positive Birthing Company’s online course which is really good (even if they are endorsed by Louise Pentland 🤦‍♀️)

RE: SODs - I joined here for the Alice drama (and ended up down an investigative rabbit hole) but have stayed because I really like that it calls out these bellends - I can seriously see the world of influencers being very different once this is over, and those who continue to post #ads and #gifts at this time will really need to think about how they do it in a way that is sensitive to the situation, or be castigated for it and loose their “followers”

Very excited for the potential return of Saint Clemmie - I can only imagine that they have been calculating the best time for a comeback (they tried it with the awful “House of Hooper” but realised it was the wrong time.) This pandemic has come at a great time for her to think she can slide under the radar back. I think there are plenty of people waiting for the return though!

Have three kids, never had a moses basket. Did however have the same M&P travel system for all and the pram turned into a "carry cot" ☺️

Good luck!! Hope the next 4 weeks and the birth go smoothly 🤞🏼 I had my second two weeks ago and it has been a rollercoaster 😱 the MWs will do all they can to keep you and baby safe and be reassured they won’t be pratting around wearing leopard print 😆
 
Please can one of you give birth at kings and have your baby caught by st clemmie and do a live birth thread where you barely mention babies at all but mention instead the mouth clacking, phone checking smuggery. It would beat even going to bestival last year and we would be grateful to you for ever and ever amen.

I have visions of her being clad in all the anti viral gear and mask and you’ll be high on drugs and you’ll catch a glimpse of leopard skin mask and think you’re hallucinating until you realize...it’s clammie rummaging around your nether regions.
 
Nooo. She’s attempting a COVID comeback. She thinks that she can sneak back and nobody will care because everything’s got a bit tit for us all. That Kings comment was very telling. So are we to assume from that that her colleagues dislike her? And that FOD is basically pretending they’ve had it for content. They are truly despicable.
 
I think it's a good time for a comeback. She is still a qualified midwife at the end of the day.
