The Baby Has Landed

[Sotiredsomuch]

Anyone watching?

I love stuff like this.

I think it was -

Ow my bum....clot (short for blood clot)

Or

Ow blood clot!

Or

Ow BUMBACLOT

en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/bumbaclot

I googled

Ah brilliant! I thought it was something he'd made up but it's a real thing!

Lol- how relevant considering the topic!

I felt sorry when they rubbished Mo’s idea, even if you think an idea isn’t great, you give constructive criticism, you don’t take the piss and belittle someone.

If I think most parents would rather be at work if they had 5 under 5!

I think Mo's family should be encouraging him to train in something

That new cot they bought won't last the baby long, is have thought, they'll be out buying another son. I refused to buy a bedside crib for full price... £200 for something that would last a few months when there are plenty online second hand in fantastic condition cos test are hardly used. We spent more on the cotbed cos that will last us years.

Babies are expensive, especially the first though when you don't know what to get and just want to get everything.

I do feel sorry for Mo. He seems a nice lad.

However it's typical i think of TV. Syler's family are the only working class family. The rest are all middle class, or at least none of them look like they're struggling for money even if not rolling in it. But they always like to portray the working class this way on TV, in a more negative light.

Style and Mo probably don't have much of a choice but to live at home in the present. Also i kinda feel that the Syler it's kinda normal. He family are very close, all seem to live in to of each other in a small house and don't think much of it. To me that would be Hell on earth.

We don't know how much they are saving or not atm. I imagine a lot has gone on the baby so maybe be able to save a bit more in future. Hopefully.

Tbh a burger van isn't a great idea (money to set it up, regulations blah blah) but they did have been a little more supportive of him trying to find something else or something with more prospects. I don't working at a sauce factory offers a great deal and it's good he's at least thinking of it... Even if he did go and get scratch cards. I do wonder if that was the producers idea though? Just another stereotype to fit people into.

I mean, mum of 5 might have bought a scratch card, or Shabazz but they wouldn't have bothered showing that.

I loved the fanning couple. And he has a lovely voice. No wonder she likes him to sing to her. Also... I'd so love to live on a farm. Probably would hate it ha but to be outside and your children to grow up outside and doing practical things in beautiful countryside? Yeah...

The cameras showed the mum buying the crib, if you were put in that position you would probably feel compelled to buy yet another crib imo

Can't believe they showed a clip of the dad-of-5 saying "I don't think we're done, Helen prob wants another one". But DO YOU?! No! Grow a pair of balls and say no, 5 is enough! You're not a sperm bank ffs.

Also loved the gay couple this week. What an emotional rollercoaster they must have been on. I did laugh to myself when they were discussing how good and beautiful the babies were, then next thing one of them done a "poo-cano"
Welcome to parenting!! They're cute but bloody filthy.

Yes all these people saying poor him it's the mum's dream. But to me it just sounds like he hasn't said no. So of course they'll keep going if he doesn't say he doesn't want any. It doesn't sound like she's forcing him just like he goes along with what she wants. And some people do cos they don't feel strongly enough either way

I really, really think that the best thing for Syler and Mo would be to have their own space. I can see Mo eventually running out of patience and tolerance with the situation, it's like they're deliberately trying to push him out. (And I guess that subconsciously they are).

I felt a bit sorry for mum-of-five last night. I wonder what it's like to hear that your partner hasn't missed you or the kids and didn't really want to come home. They both seem to have got stuck in a bit of a sad position.

(I'd totally forgotten about the farming family. Didn't know who they were at first when mum and daughter went up field).

It hadn't shown them before on the previous programmes that's why

Re: the dad of 5, I agree with purpleme12. I don't think he's made the point strong enough to say a staunch 'No'. He seems very wishy washy and has just gone along with things in the hope that she eventually feels content. He probably initially thought that after 2/3 she would stop.

I feel sorry for him though - when he's at home he just looks catatonic and that he would rather be anywhere else. He just doesn't seem very engaged with family life, like it's more a chore. 5 kids in such quick succession would be a nightmare to me!

It hadn't shown them before on the previous programmes that's why

They had. I'd just forgotten about them.

I don't feel sorry for dad of 5 he seems to have his own hobbies to distract him from family life,3 cars in the drive and a motorbike. If he wasn't happy with more babies he he could say no. I was often catatonic with one child let alone 5. Loved the conversation with the girl about working out how they could all get to space in a rocket,or two Just shows the power of editing when that was put into context.

Oh it had their names when they came up like they were just introducing them and I don't remember seeing about them before

It said it was a new couple as well in a review of yesterday's

Ok, they weren’t shown before, you’re right and I’m just making it all up.

Where do people think Mo and Syler are going to move and how?confused no one saying thry need to move out to make it work are denying the reality of the difficulty in doing that, just that ideally that's what their relationship / little family needs. But two full time albeit minimum wage jobs should allow them to save for a rental deposit for a small 2 bed flat somewhere given how lite it just cost them in basic living costs.

I properly laughed out loud at bumber lot Dad falling out of bed. Feel like Ramiyajs Mom is one of the most honest / open people in there.

Loved Welsh Dad singing in demand 😍😍

Someone said about the two dads just leaving the surrogate lady in the hospital and not really caring, I didn't get that at all. The one def felt bad leaving her, but I imagine she wanted some time alone between the babies going and her DH coming to get her.

I'm confused in the progeny of the twins - they said they had twins so thry could both be biologic parents, so I assumed two eggs implanted but then the way they were talking about not being able to tell them apart made me qn if they were identical

Lol I really don't think there's a need to get in a mood about this!

I think that there were two eggs from the same doner, implanted with a sperm from each of the dads, if that makes sense?

The surrogate is probably having loads of conflicting feelings. On one hand her body is pumping her full of hormones that tell her she should be cuddling a newborn baby. So she’s probably feeling a sense of loss. But on the other hand she gets to recover from childbirth totally focusing on herself and not care for any babies! She can go straight home and sleep. Drink alcohol as she isn’t breastfeeding or caring for a baby. Take long baths. Get full night’s sleep. She’s already had her own kids so she knows how precious all those things will be.

Definitely a new family last night who had not been in the programme before.

It's a shame Syler and Mo could not have saved to try and at least rent but now having an accidental pregnancy they will likely be stuck with her mum for years. Feel sorry for Mo being shouted at by Syler and her mum.

The two dads look very similar, to me anyway so I think that’s why the twins, as half siblings look alike.
