Instamums 2

Interested to read this in the Guardian today

I was the one who commented on her IG luggage photo and not being able to afford such a holiday as a hcp and mum of 3....I initially started following mod as a fellow hcp and mother...sadly she's totally unrelatable to me now...I bet she's only working to keep up her midwifery registration to maintain her USP

Oh there's all the build a bear ads at the moment..... I mean like those middle class instamummies would buy such tat.......

@Stellastartsitall Blimey. Zero integrity. Thanks for this - my eyes have been opened!

And the interior shout outs when MOD needed to decorate her 'ginormous' house....

Indeed Bothered, or to keep networking. She lives in Ramsgate, why wouldn't she work at Margate hospital's maternity ward?

@fruitbowl I was just waiting for her to start asking for recommendations (no freebies) you know she needs a lot of insulation. I'm sure someone can offer them underfloor heating too.

Why is everyone saying 'gifted' instead of given?

'Gifted' makes me cringe every time. Awful word invented to make Instagram advertising more palatable for the plebs.

Isn't it time someone popped up and said, why are you all being so mean, you know you can just unfollow and make the world nicer. While off the back of their adoring follow and like, accounts are literally taking in all the goodies without even being honest!

It should be #grifted.

Reallycan't - that pretty much confirms what I thought. She is clearly only struggling through her day a week, poor love, in an attempt to have any semblance of normality #seemegetupearly #icanusepublictransport #feelmypain. I'm sad you aren't being rewarded for the hard work you do (which we all applaud) but at least you have your integrity.

@Mumofkids Maybe they’re as shocked as I am 😂 Too shocked for words.
@TeachesOfPeaches Good point! I’ll say given from now on... see, their silly terminology has sneaked into my vocabulary.

Yes flearidden with a voluntary 3 hour commute to Kings rather than 10 minute trip to the local hospital 🤔

Argh perhaps if he put the flipping phone down for 5 minutes and ate with them, they would eat better and not need to climb up on the work surfaces to compete for his attention? He films every flipping millisecond of their lives. Today, breakfast, lunch and dinner, trip out, how is it normal. Snippets are ok. But today has been off the scale.

Flearidden and fruitbowl, I assumed there was no maternity unit in the area... why make yourself work a 15 hour day?

That's easy. To claim you are relevant and maintain your usp.

Mumofkids there is indeed a local maternity unit. (I have family in Thanet).

Hmmm because they wouldn't let her work 1 day, or because Kings is more prestigious. She met DLAM there - she was her midwife, so better for connecting with 'her crowd'?

The Queen Elizabeth Queen Mother Hospital in Margate has a large maternity unit, covering births for most of East Kent. It is literally a 10 minute drive from Ramsgate with free parking within walking distance.

My sil has worked long NHS hours for 30 years without the drama and without the need to polish her halo.

It must be to keep London links. Crazy life. Must be quite exhausting.

does anyone follow sprinkle of glitter? I used to watch her videos when she only did YouTube and was married to Matt! What happened with that? Does anyone know?

Babaloo I've only followed her on IG recently and she's with a builder I think and have baby Pearl 🤷🏻‍♀️

When ever someone comes on here to show their support for any of these women you’re all slagging off we get batted away, laughed at or pushed into an awkward corner. Mean girls comes into mind. I really hope MOd or Fod aren’t reading this as the constant barrage of bitter, unverified assumptions of their lives is so uncomfortable I wonder how any of you are living your own lives rather than spending all day and night ripping apart these people.

She is divorced from her husband @Babaloo88
She has just had a new baby with her BF who has moved into her house.
The other week she got engaged ..To herself.
