no i dont judge people who smoke during pg - i just completely dissaprove and i certainly dont understand it

would you blow smoke in the face of a newborn - its the same thing in my book

camillathechicken · 20/03/2008 16:27

I hope crocs paid them well

i am a committed crocs wearer but that glorious technicolour , smart clothes, thermonuclear bright crocs 3 sizes to big, just made my eyes bleed.

boaktastic!

., judged, judg·ing, judg·es.

  1. To form an opinion or estimation of after careful consideration: judge heights; judging character.

yes, i do form an opinion of someone who smokes in pregnancy, of course i do. and they would form an opinion of me right back if i told them what it was.
you're talking about judging as if it's inherently wrong...

my name it tutter and I Judge too

francagoestohollywood · 20/03/2008 16:31

No, I don't think it's the same.

VeniVidiVickiQV · 20/03/2008 16:32

I disapprove of extra-marital affairs - there are loads of things we all disapprove of. It shouldnt be used as something to bash folk over the head with at every available opportunity.

I dont think much of her myself, but, it's apparent to me that she's not well and she doesnt seem to have anyone looking out for her while she's making lots of daft mistakes. I dont feel like I can look down my nose at her for that. I just feel sorry for her, and her children.

francagoestohollywood · 20/03/2008 16:33

No I don't nevcessarily form an opinion of people smoking iin oregnancy, no.

VeniVidiVickiQV · 20/03/2008 16:34

I think the issue with that particular definition is the "careful consideration".

None of us know all the facts, only the bit the mags and paps dangle in front of us in order to tempt us to buy. That, makes any information disseminated via the media, partial.

Unless of course any of you know more than what the meeja has told us?

Aitch · 20/03/2008 16:35

really? you have no opinion on smoking in pregnancy? okay, great. i do.

vvv i don't think that's anything anyone hasn't said before though. i'm just taking issue with the assumption that 'judging' is bad. it isn't. like i say, i judged her to be a nice lassie on IACGMOOH. i judge her to be a disaster area now, for loads of reasons.

MrsMattie · 20/03/2008 16:36

LMFAOOOOOOoooooooo@orange croc man. Drip.

Blandmum · 20/03/2008 16:36

My year 7 class could all tell me this morning that smoking in pregnancy was a bad idea.

Not rocket science, is it?

donnie · 20/03/2008 16:37

trouble is, she really shot herself in the foot when she said, of smoking while pg " I only ever have a fag when I drink" which dh thought was incredibly funny. Way to go kerry. I do feel sorry for her , being married to a twat like that, but saying things like " I would like / wouldn't mind if my new baby grows up to be a pole dancer" is inviting people to hate her. Oh and selling her every move to OK mag - that too.

VeniVidiVickiQV · 20/03/2008 16:38

Judging isnt bad. I just take issue with folk believing what folk in the papers witter about. It's not just the red tops either, as evidenced by the tremendous U-turn this week by the The Express Group, who have apologised "wholeheartedly" for at least 100 articles on the McCanns which were utter fabrication or defamatory or libelous.

That's all.

VeniVidiVickiQV · 20/03/2008 16:41

I work with someone who, being exceptionally intelligent, and highly regarded (and qualified) in her field, is still drinking and smoking well into the second trimester of her pg. It's something she did before she was pg, and before she found out she was pg. She wasnt planning on getting pg. She's trying to give up, and has cut down tremendously. But...

Shit happens, you know?

Aitch · 20/03/2008 16:41

her autobiographical stories are what feed the media to a large degree, as are her reality television shows and spreads in OK etc. she is sufficiently famous to control all of those by now. she's on the front cover of one of those mags right now, spinning her side. the tabs are telling something different.

i think she has given us plenty of material to carefully consider, tbh. plus i know she had a shit life, but i know people who've had shitter and don't have her money to access good help so i'm never that convinced by that side of things.

francagoestohollywood · 20/03/2008 16:41

I have an opinion on what constitutes a safe (ish) pregnancy for myself, not on how pregnancy is lived by other people.

Aitch · 20/03/2008 16:44

hang on... so it's not good for you to smoke in preg but it's okay for everyone else? when it's palpably, demonstrably Not Okay for the baby? okay, as i say, fine, whatever... can't really argue with that...

GetOrfMoiLand · 20/03/2008 16:44

Judgy judgy. I do judge KK because she (a) invites all and sundry into her life and (b) is the Empress of all that is Judgement in her OK column, so what goes round etc etc.

francagoestohollywood · 20/03/2008 16:48

No, I wasn't saying that. I simply don't feel I can form an opinion on someone based on how they decide they want to live their pregnancy.

VeniVidiVickiQV · 20/03/2008 16:49

Oh I dont always go with the "shit life" thing at all.

I do think that there are some forms of "shit life" that dont teach, provide or enable a person to develop life skills, common sense and all other things that contribute towards making 'sensible' decisions and life choices.

I'm not advocating the things she's done at all. But I can't prejudge her based on what I've read in the media.

nailpolish · 20/03/2008 16:51

franca you must be a saint if you dont have an opinion on smoking in pg

or

you have smoked in pg yourself

Aitch · 20/03/2008 16:56

but of course you can, that's what she's asked us to do for years. lovely kerry and bri and the kids in ok mag etc, going on i'm a celeb blah blah blah. she wants us to have an opinion, her livelihood depends on it. she just wants us to have a good opinion, that's all.

and without wishing to fall into the trap of 'all judging is negative' etc, i cannot help but wrinkle my nose at the sight women with big bumps standing in their goonies at the doors of maternity hospitals. i physically can't help it. it's a disgusting habit at the best of times, but when you're carrying a baby? nah, that's the pits. and yes, her husband could have left her that morning, there could be extenuating circumstances, whatever. but i have a reaction to it, based on the careful consideration of the evidence that it is harmful to her child and she likely knows it.

Aitch · 20/03/2008 16:57

at the sight of women

francagoestohollywood · 20/03/2008 17:00

No, I'm not a saint!
(sorry I'm trying to make a point in a moment of mayhem)
