Has anyone else been following the blog since this thread?

Or is it just me AKA The Saddo...

I~ didn't actually read the bedroom thing until now but that is bloody weird? Has anyone seen 'Raising Caine'?

She sounds like a lovely friend that can drive you a bit crazy sometimes

I think their home is lovely but almost 'too perfect in a trying not to be perfect way' if that makes any sense...

But not having a telly is not that amazing in this day and age when you can get everything online no?

Oh and expat-she didn't just change a nappy-she sewed the thing first! On a slippery slope to Pampers methinks...

hackneybird what a gem cackles I hate those 'my perfect life' blogs. I can't believe I read the whole 'birthing story' but for those of you who have a life
I particularly liked:

"She also discovered that vocalizing helped her deal with each birthing wave. She began to vocalize the word “peace” as well as an “uh” sound."
piss off maybe ??

The poor child-imagine growing up and reading that about yourself??

Hmmm I found that birth story really cringey. Nice that he's proud of her and overwhelmed but a bit self absorbed. How much was baby actually mentioned?

A bit weird.

Interesting to see the views expressed here. Even as a current non-parent (am expecting 1st in October), I have been reading her blog with amazement. I thought I was hopelessly naive ut she takes the biscuit.

Although it has to be said, she is a teacher to toddlers, so surely she knew what havoc they were capapble of wreaking when she designed that room?

Actually I have to defend him on the whole control thing, part of hypnobirthing is having the partner involved and them being an advocate for what you want and what you have discussed. The whole point of breathing out the baby instead of pushing is that you are suppose to be less likely to tear.

That peacock blue ring sling looks like it's made from raw silk. How d'you get baby vomit out of that? It's hard enough when you boil wash cotton.
