With every day she seems all the more off the charts f**king neurotic. And completely, utterly self-absorbed, without any apparent regard for her existing children let alone poor little Lord/Lady Haggis-StJohn of Portsmouth-Knott.

Seriously though, I am genuinely concerned for her and her children’s well-being once she’s trying to parent three actual children including a newborn, especially when Sinbad sails away on deployment.

There is no way - even Sarah on a vaguely even keel let alone ‘completely neurotic-only-pregnant-and-birthing-a-third-child-for-the-mindnumbingly dull Insta content-Sarah’ - can cope with what’s ahead. Even if Granny jets down from Aberdeen for only her third (maybe 4th?) trip ever to the new house to help for a couple of weeks, real life with brat Isla (pre teen!!!) and high needs, perennially under-parented Lachlan, plus a newborn is going to be very tough for Sarah.

And it won’t be helped by the fact that she’ll document it all for the internet of course. But ya know, this is crazy Sarah 🤷
 
The focus is all wrong.

What should be the primary driver is what is in the baby’s best interests. Forget photographers/jeans/nails/previous births etc etc.

Once the focus is on the baby, the decisions and the decision making process becomes quite simple.

Interesting that Grannie isn’t peching down ASAP. Big ask of the friends to take Lachlan and Isla.

Rob is home for another month - why isnt he seemingly involved in any of the childcare plans?! Sorry but her Mother has no need to be there if Rob is home
 
As well as being off the charts neurotic, she clearly also has zero self-awareness. Because if she did she’d realise that she comes across like a complete twit sharing chapter and verse about a midwife appt with the internet, especially when she shares her fucked up reasoning about everything to do with this pregnancy and baby.

And spare a thought, Tattlers, for those lucky ‘friends on standby.’ (1) Sarah and Sinbad surely don’t have any actual friends nearby given what a drain, and over-sharing LOSER Sarah is so anyone who is on standby can only have agreed to it out of sheer pity (or concern for the two kids’ well-being); and (2) they’re going to have to put up with Isla and Lachlan for who knows how long.
 
I have a friend I’ve know for years who I love dearly but over shares her kids and so much stuff in social media. Friends I know who don’t know her as well often make comments about
everything she over shares. It’s not the done thing anymore. It’s embarrassing. I actually have stopped going out with one girl who insisted on crap photos of us all on a night out and posting it on social media. No one cares! Sarah has no self awareness at all. I surprised she’s not doing a ‘come and share my birth with me’ tik tok.
 
I find it interesting and sad that at first, this was the last baby. But slowly as things haven't gone according to plan, she's dropping in that it might not be the last. So again, even more evidence this is about a perfect idea in her head rather than an actual human child. What's she going to do? Keep going until she gets it spot on?

Totally agree with this. If she has a straight forward birth she should be in hospital for 1 night max. At what point will she be prancing about with a photographer at the hospital as well!!! They will be wanting to discharge her and can imagine her kicking up a fuss as the photographer hasn’t got enough shots. Have never known someone live their whole life for the benefit of social media as much as this twit. I hope she has to give birth in the hospital not midwife led unit to duck up the aesthetics of her photos.
 
Presumably Granny is coming so that Rob can be at the birth. And the photos don’t feature Lachlan bouncing about in the background

Although Granny seems to have developed some boundaries and is coming in her own sweet time. Still unclear where Granny will be sleeping as the spare room has been turned into the sludge den. So not surprisingly she seems to want to minimise her visit as much as possible
 
I didn’t even make a birth plan with my third as the first two births went completely tits up. Why would anyone want to be professionally photographed in hospital? They’re not the most scenic of places and 99.9% of women look tit straight after giving birth, which is hardly surprising considering what we’ve just done. If all is well and it is straight forward with no complications she could well be out the same day. And heaven forbid something goes wrong. What do you do then? She is so obsessed with Instagram she has completely lost sight of the medical side of having a baby.
