I showed my Mr that photo Sarah shared of her swelling and he is absolutely shocked. He literally said “what the actual duck?”. We both agree that something very serious, very tragic and just plain awful is seconds away and they are fortunate nothing has happened thus far. I have never had so much anxiety about someone (both Sarah and baby girl) that I do not personally know.
Sarah, we know you read here, PLEASE listen to us, this is dangerous. You could not only lose your baby girl, you could die. Go to a pharmacy, doctor, hospital ANYTHING. You can both die, especially in this heat. Please, at the very least, go to a campsite with decent electric and get the air con up on full, put your feet up/elevate your legs, rest and stay out of the sun. There’s no secret that I very much dislike your husband because of his past scenarios of messaging underage girls based on the fact I was groomed and SA’d, but the rest of you seem genuine and need to look after yourselves, especially you in your condition(I mean pregnant).
You obviously know that given that this is your last pregnancy of many (can’t be arsed do the maths of how many, I know, I’m lazy), your age and and the heat that you are high risk. I really don’t mean that in a hateful way, I am genuinely concerned. I can tolerate, and even sometimes enjoy, your vlogs when Chris is not the main person conducting the vlogs as I can see that you love your children and I am enjoying watching Mila and Jace grow into little people. Isla is genuinely so intelligent and when she learns something new and gets so excited and shares it with your viewers, I actually really enjoy seeing and watching her get so happy and proud. As a family, without Chris, you all are very pleasant. Especially because when he is not involved in a vlog, everyone seems so much happier and just normal.
I don’t get the hump like most about the volume of presents your kids get at birthdays and Christmas etc. I’m glad your kids get spoilt, because they always say thank you. I grew up in a very poor family and was always grateful, much the way yours are, when I receive gifts. This has always made it so that I want to be able to spoil my future children, the way you can yours. I’m over 30 now so my time for me and my hubby is ticking for having children, but we have to pay for fertility treatment so it’s a struggle.
Long story short, I know you care for your children, including your unborn baby girl, so PLEASE do the right thing and seek medical attention. I don’t want to see you lose this baby. I’ve lost a baby through no choice and, despite me being extremely young (I was raped at 12) it has always stuck with me.
I’ll probably get a lot of people on here disagreeing with what I’ve said, but I stand by it. If anyone wants to question my opinion, feel free but I probably won’t respond because this is bringing up a lot of bad memories for me.
Sarah, please do the right thing. Turn back and go home. If you don’t want to do that for the kids sake etc, please do the air con thing I suggested and just seek medical advice, even if it’s just a pharmacist. I genuinely think, though, that you need inpatient hospital treatment because that photo you shared and the swelling you have is extremely worrying and downright dangerous for both you and your baby girl. I hope it all works out okay for you both, whichever Avenue to pursue. I just hope you do the right thing.
