Who describes a nights sleep with a weeks old baby in the house as “an absolute howler” because they were up every couple of hours?! That’s normal, and what babies should do! My daughter had a lot of undiagnosed allergies that took an age to get a handle of, and so would only sleep for a max of 20 mins at a time before crying out in pain until she was 9 months old. Try working out under those circumstances 🙄

He's go not idea has he? How does he not know that babies of marleys age only sleep for about 2-3 hours if that, at a time. they have to feed often! Marley is his second child. Maybe Indie was a super chilled baby and never cried much, my mum said me and my sister never really cried as babies and were always pretty content. So perhaps Indie was like that. but all babies are different. I hope Marley gives him hell when they started weaning him. I'm sorry to hear your little one went through all that pain. I hope she's doing great now!
 
He's getting on my nerves. So makes those fritters for Indie at breakfast time and he is filming her eating and he mutters "come on, please like these." He sees that little girl as nothing more than part of his experiment. Gross. Stop filming her while she eats and stop filming her in the damn "bath." She has no privacy.

The begging her to like them made me cringe so hard
 
There’s 18 months in my first two.
my first had horrendous colic, the second slept through fully from 3 weeks (my third did the same and I am absolutely not bleeping sorry and I’m definitely smug 😂).
Seems he got the easy baby first, told everyone how to just be chilled and let mum sleep and gave his unwanted opinion like he was super nanny with a beard and it looks like it’s backfiring spectacularly!!

Edit - he was one of those with one child who thinks he’s got all bases covered.
a baby and a toddler is a whole different ball game!
wait till Marley hits toddler stage and there’s two of them smearing their own tit all over the walls while the bleeping Alexa plays whale music in the cunting background! Exercise and Gousto will be the last thing on your mind lad 😂

Ps - Although smug, I never rubbed it in people’s faces and I never thought I was the sleeping baby guru either.
Mr Wicks is both!

Some of the stuff he comes out with is basic parenting knowledge surely ?!

I like to read to my kid, it's helped her talking.

Yes I think just about everybody knows this and it's widely spoken about ?!

Also I think he doesn't seem to grasp that yes her speech, and ability to use forks and do jigsaws etc will improve with time this is the same for all babies yes interacting with them may help a little but she would learn most of these things anyway you are not a baby expert or doing something special !

Ooo I see he put AD on his latest gousto story wonder if he got in trouble ? Although I still think he should have to put it on every story ? Or at least the first one when he starts cooking it ??

Sorry if this has been covered but why is Indie seemingly always in that tiny bath (my baby outgrew that at 4 months but he was a chunk) in front of the telly in a house without heat and why god why is he putting videos of it on the internet for anyone to see?
cause he's a prat. also cause they didn't have any gas so i guess it was easier just to fill up the small bath.
 
‘Theres always time to fit in a workout’
Proceeds to stick Indie in front of the telly. Mate, there’s time for hookers and beers and a box set of 24 if you stick your kids in front of the tube. Not really a groundbreaking tip and also, don’t just stick your kid in front of the telly.
Yes but Joe you plonker when you have a normal 9-6 job it is MUCH harder. Stop making us all feel bad that we don’t ‘make time’ for exercise every day. It is YOUR job Joe and frankly I’d expect you to look better than you do with the amount you bang on about it.

Sticking his kid in front of the TV so he can exercise before he gives her milk or breakfast. Fabulous parenting there Joe.

I was also so annoyed yesterday when he was showing off that huge haul of #gifted books that he was sent after banging on about Indie being obsessed with Julia (Mc)Donaldson. He can’t even get the authors name right! There are schools, play groups, children’s centres etc who would love a big collection of free books but instead someone who can more than afford them gets sent them. I hate social media!
