I love the other one, The Organised Mum Method. Really good. I’m sure she will be sponsored by Method and Zoflora.
There are really good positive parts to Instagram.

Didn't the organised mum and Mrs Hinch have a fallout though? Or was it their fans falling out with one another?

OP posts:
SpiritLeveller · 29/09/2018 20:31

I'm pretty sure it was the fans taking sides.

I like TOMM too. I mean they are same same but different, right? I don't understand how people can get feverishly protective of one above the other.

@EeebyMum

*Sofia Lemon was having a right old birch abkut She Who Shall Not Be Named- wasn’t it her who suggested SWSNBN shouldn’t have had kids?

So Sofia does stick up for Instamums, just some of them.*

Re the above, I don't think I said SWSNBN should not have had her daughter. I did say I felt she discussed inappropriate topics in front of her. I don't like her but won't say anymore as it will just get this thread deleted like all the others.

As for sticking up for instamums, all I've ever said is that I personally have no issue with anyone using insta to make money or featuring their kids. I thought many of the comments made on these threads about various instamums were vile and unnecessary, and I said so.

I'm not an instamum, or Minty.

I've seen Mrs Hinch now Grin

I don't actually know what the arguments were over but yeah, seems a bit daft. How heated can cleaning get?!

spirit a million miles apart in regard to amount of followers! I've followed both now

Mrs Meldrum has been doing the organised mum thing

CadyHeron · 29/09/2018 20:41

I've seen Mrs Hinch now

It's usually just her arm,but she does sometimes post her mush as well lol.
She's very pretty, I think it's the Mrs Hinch name that made me have a mental image of someone older and more I don't know, "mumsy" like! Grin
Not at all though. I watched her when she was on This Morning the other week as well.

Eve, I just clicked why your name is so familiar! Great show! Best binge watch I've had in ages.

You'd be surprised, I'm in the FB group and some people virtually brain each other with virtual Zoflora bottles Grin

EvePolastri · 29/09/2018 20:50

MrBull we binge watched too, can't wait for series 2

EeebyMum · 29/09/2018 20:51

@sofialemon I’m almost certain it was you who said she shouldn’t have had her kid. Mainly cos i was shocked by the vitriol coming from such an ardent instamum cheerleader.

But being as though any proof is long gone, we will have to just disagree.

EvePolastri Yes, can't wait. Jodie Comer is just unreal in it.

I reported the post in question and have it on a return email so I know who posted it and it definitely wasn't Sofia. Sofia definitely wasn't complimentary but it wasn't anywhere on that level.

SpiritLeveller · 29/09/2018 20:55

All the acting in that programme is amazing. The guy from The Bridge is fab, the casting is top dollar.

Oh I can't think I've seen The Bridge. Who was that? I really liked the humour throughout it too.

Killing Eve was just Star Pheobe Waller-Bridge is the best writer of women.

The actress that plays Saga Noren is so good.

Good on you for coming back with that, just shows how easy it is to twist on social media. Without the proof, it could so easily be a media pile on - or if not a pile on enough to have people doubting a person.
Didn't think it sounded like sofia but if (as in so many cases it does) enough people say something against words can get twisted.

@EeebyMum

The really awful comments about SWSNBN were made by another poster. I stand by anything I have said about her.
