It seems quite harsh from the outset which makes me a bit Hmm

Me, did that lady just say she used to be a size 10 and she's now an 18?????

timeforanewname · 20/09/2012 22:13

I missed the start, how many weeks is Jenna?

DesperatelySeekingSedatives · 20/09/2012 22:14

No! without wanting to sound rude, none of these ladies so far are an 18.

MrsTomHardy · 20/09/2012 22:16

Very pretty ladies but they must be bigger than they say they are.

Both are v tall though. Might just be me but so far the tone of the programme and some of the professionals featured in it seems lacking in any erm empathy? Quite judgy even.

i'm watching it but i've just seen the lady who cried. she said that the nurse was harsh with the sling bit but she was only being truthful and preparing her, she seemed to take it as a joke, i can get up on my own.... but she doesnt know that she can, cos she hasnt fallen yet!

I'm a bit confused!

SquashedSquirrel · 20/09/2012 22:17

The Midwife was wearing Fimo fruit round her neck! Class

getrealandgetalife · 20/09/2012 22:18

oh and if you told me i might have a small baby then took my blood pressure, mine would be raised too!

I'd be in bits if anyone told me they would need a hoist to lift me if I fell or that lack feeling movements was due to my weight, these ladies are brave letting them film it.

MrsTomHardy · 20/09/2012 22:19

Jenna is 21 stone!! She cant be a size 18 then surely

getrealandgetalife · 20/09/2012 22:21

ringodingo · 20/09/2012 22:21

getrealandgetalife · 20/09/2012 22:21

but i have no arse... I am a freak!

numptymark1 · 20/09/2012 22:22

I'm six foot tall and did weigh 21st at one point (thank god I lost weight) and I was a size 24

no way is she an 18

CouvelaireHair · 20/09/2012 22:24

There was no reason for the mw to talk about her weight being the cause of the PE just then. Theres nowt she can do about it now so making her feel bad isn't helping anyone.
