And then the fucking mods banned me and deleted all my perfectly reasonable comments. So now this poster thinks even more that she is in the right.

It was on the EmmasDiary facebook page yes, I know... I stated that her stance was offensive to me (she thinks her exH isnt safe to look after her kids as he is depressed) and I was jumped on and called an idiot (spelt wrong, ha). She "lolled" at my depression, so I childish, I know! said I thought it was hysterical that she had PND, and somewhat ironic given that she wont let H see his own kids.

Sigh. Why do I do it...

Feel free to all tell me IAB a cunt.

cheeky do you mean the "would have/would of" pic? I have no idea who posted that Wink

As the status has been deleted I don't think a name change is necessary - I've forgotten the names of the folk on there already!

BeyondTheLimitsOfAcceptability · 23/11/2012 14:12

Oh no, I missed the death of it! I may have gone back to bed
What happened?

Moominsarescary · 23/11/2012 14:28

I missed it too

MrsReiver · 23/11/2012 14:56

I was out and toddler group but my mate says it was just more of the same.

TheDreadedFoosa · 23/11/2012 15:08

Absolutely agree with Mintyy Christmaspants.

Embarrassed by, and for, those so excited about a Person Who's Wrong On The Internet.

I would love to be able to tell you, op, that youre very odd to think anyone gives a shit about your little disagreement...but clearly id be wrong Hmm

However i think you may all be better suited to the Emmas whotsit facebook thingy after all...

BeyondTheLimitsOfAcceptability · 23/11/2012 15:21

This page is popular with new mums, its kind of like MN or netmums. I think it is actually very important to query that they are encouraging myths about depression, which was what my actual point was. Do you disagree with that Foosa? Do you think that advice such as mine, which was not offensive but just disagreed with her, should be deleted? By a prominent website for new mums, many of whom will suffer from PND?

There's never any evidence based advice though, it's all people's personal opinions. Sometimes the advice given is just dangerous.

OverlyHappyAlways · 23/11/2012 15:55

Can someone link me to this shite, sorry site I mean site...I'm using a BT hotspot and my laptop keeps failing me? Thank you

cheekybaubles · 23/11/2012 16:01

Anyway she kept changing her story. First she said he wanted access but she didn't want him to have it unsupervised, then she said he asked for her to be there. Then she said he wasn't interested in seeing his DC's.
I was very tempted to tell her to post on MN as she would have maybe had a wider opinion but it would have been like throwing a sheep to the wolves. She was only interested in the answers of people that were advising her how to get her x out of her DC's lives by pre-occupying them with other stuff. Was very sad to think that some people thought it was a good idea for the children to forget who their DD is :(

cheekybaubles · 23/11/2012 16:02

There was a link on page 2 of this thread.

BeyondTheLimitsOfAcceptability · 23/11/2012 16:05

The link is still there, but her whole post has gone poof now, possibly because my lone voice of reason wasn't so lone any more Grin

OverlyHappyAlways · 23/11/2012 16:17

Oh page 2. I am a very old mumsnetter I don't do pages (not a great fan of changes) I just have one huge page, I shall scroll more carefully Grin

OverlyHappyAlways · 23/11/2012 16:18

Oh has it gone...Sad Okay I may have to go walk the dog...

Moominsarescary · 23/11/2012 16:20

There was a post on there a few months ago. A women thought her waters had broken at 25 weeks and even her mw just advised using a pad for a few days and seeing what happened.

Wtf nooo ive had pprom twice if the waters have broken you need to go to hospital and have some steroids for the lungs and some abs incase of infection ffs

MrsReiver · 23/11/2012 16:38

I get angry about people perpetuating dangerous myths about mental health problems, if that makes me odd, so be it Foosa.

GhostShip · 23/11/2012 18:21

Gutted it's gone. I had more to say.

GhostShip · 23/11/2012 18:21
