To think Peaches Geldof should have strapped her baby in?

[KnockKnockPenny]

and also, put the phone down when her baby fell out of his pram!

Have just seen photos of her poor baby tumbling out of his pram onto a pavement. I know the council should have sorted the pavement out, but he wouldnt have fallen out if he was strapped in :(

sorry for The Sun link

It's shorts!!!!!

Love the shoes too - they look like proper retro 90s loafers.

Lovely shoes. I want them.

I like a short skirt yes only on holiday though where nobody knows me

Poor Peaches. What a horrible thing to happen. I bet she is gutted. Ba y should have been strapped in but we all make mistakes. She will strap him in, in future I would think. She should have put her phone down though. Odd that she didn't. However the pap who took the pictures, what a vile person - anyone decent would have rushed over to help and check the poor baby was ok.

Exactly prairie another case of foresight is better than hindsight.

I am resisting the urge to collect DDs from school wearing short skirt, fuck me heels and a carrying my phone, in support of Peaches.

but am nearly 40 and DD1 would die of embarresment

warning to all mothers do not wear a pencil wiggle dress no matter how nice it looks (it was a wedding) just in case your darling children fall over, you can not bend in them the time it takes to hitch it up could cause them (and others that see you and your spanx) more upset and stress

"another case of foresight is better than hindsight."

Oh my God - would you ever listen to yourself...!!

Prarie - you are such a good mother, y'know..

I made an awful mistake. Ds1 was about 8 weeks and dh and I took him out for a run in the car and went to a big shopping centre. We spent most of the day there, had lunch etc. Rather than use the full pram we just used the car seat onthe chassis.

When we got home after 30 minutes on the motorway, I went to lift ds out the car and realised he wasn't strapped in. I felt sick.

Short skirt or not, baby wouldn't care, and if the only concern would be not showing your foof when picking up baby after it fell, well then surely baby is more important then who ever could see me.

Now shoes, that's another matter in my opinion.

somerset why are you getting so upset and reading so much into this???

Upset? I'm laughing....!

"There are loads of arses on here and we are mostly mothers."

I'm with Somerset. I'm reading some of these posts with my "Oh Puh-lease!" face on.

She does look great doesn't she. We are just all of those legs.

Ive always strapped mine in even when using old fashioned pram style...prams!

BUT, mistakes are made and im sure that she feels bloody awful about it as would any parent.

The baby was unharmed and im sure shes learnt a lesson.

Of course shes on the defensive as she will be judged.

Non celeb parents make mistakes sometimes, only difference is on the whole they arent papped whilst doing so.

Give a break FFS.

I hope when my dc have children I help them when they make their mistakes. Because they will make mistakes. Like we all do.

OK, so it's shorts, but her arse is still hanging out of them and she's still doing that girly legs together thing - her body is restricted. Her dainty phone is too pretty to put down for her baby - her BABY, yes, who is head over heels on a dirty city concrete pavement.

If I ever see a buggy tip over, people just generally scream and drop everything, they don't carry on talking on their phone, making vague gestures towards the child.

Nobody has said that the don't make mistakes

245 posts!!! (and yes, I know mine is just adding to the hoo-ha). Get a grip, people. Accidents happen.

achillea now that is nasty.

Good for her for not panicking., and there is no reason not to think that she didn't pick the baby up immediately. They are photos, not a film.

Oh I see Kayano, so of this hand-wringing is because she didn't act in the prescribed way after the accident? Now I get it.

Why is it so difficult to get across that it is NOT about being the wonderful flawless mother?????

somerset you are laughing, right Must be the laugh of a hyena

Where is she doing the girl legs together thing, Achillea?

If you're talking about picture 4 then actually she is bending at the knee to lift, the recommended H&S way to lift a load. Well done, Peaches!
