Mum Rant!

If one more person comments on my daughter's weight I think I'm going to go crazy! My baby has amazing big chubby cheeks! She has the most adorable chunky legs! Above all, she is 10months old! So what goes through people's minds to use the words like fat about her?? Weight shaming 10 month old babies....🙄

My youngest was on the 98th percentile line for the longest time. She was amazingly chunky but I did her comments like have you tried not feeding her so often? 😂 yeah I’ll just put my baby on a diet. Seems healthy 😂. My doctors were always amazed and proud of her weight but did say if it persists then we’d talk about diet later 😂. Anyways she’s almost 15 months now and all the walking and exercise her weight is pretty much average now. She’s been in size 12-18 since she was 8 months old 😂

Dont worry i though i go crazy to i have 9 months and he is skinny he was born very small and its perfect weight as he should be but people tell me to feed him more as he looks underweight and he eats a lot aready drow me crazy now i just dont care people will comment Anything these days you cant Please anyone honestly

@Ayo assholes?

Funny at the other side. There is this lady that anytime she sees my baby and I, keeps asking how old he is and what size clothes he's in. Like more that twice or trice in a day and then make commets that are own baby is just 5 month and already in 9-12 months clothes as well and that hes too big and she cant keep buying cloths and bla bla . I don't even know how to feel. Cause I have never even asked how old her baby is but she keeps going on about my baby and she asks and tells my husband the same too at every opportunity. I just think some people are .....

@jade and @Sam I also get these exact things said to me! So frustrating because my little boy can eat and doesn’t so no to anything! But the weight just doesn’t go on to him. But I also get comments like “oh does he not eat properly look at the size of him! Look at his skinny neck” this includes my aunties from my mums said and my MIL!! I just say you can’t bloody win if a baby is chubby (my nephew was a proper cute chubby baby - now 9 years old 🥹) he will get called at and if he is skinny (other nephew who is now 7) also got called same stuff as my little on. So you honestly just can’t win with some people and I don’t understand why they think they have to say such a thing! I get really frustrated and upset to hear things about not feeding him properly etc etc! X

@Jess exactly. Just because my Molly can't answer her.....I can guarantee the baby would have had the same response haha. It's vile and annoyed me so much! I think I did well not too kick off....never mind insult her! Xx

Haha I love this! I can't believe she'd say that though. Did she expect you to apologize 🙈 She definitely deserved it 😂 if you wouldn't say it to an adult, don't say it about a baby, easy. People are gross at times 🙄

Tonight someone at a family meal shouted across the table "I can't believe how fat she is" talking about my baby. So about 45 mins later....I asked her what's caused her to gain so much weight. 🤷 Then I said, I'm sorry, is it not nice being called fat??

@Becky it is disgusting, annoys me even more when you call them out and they say you're being overprotective because they can't understand. That never makes it okay!

@Jess it just annoys me how people have to make these comments. I find it so disgusting, I couldn't imagine commenting on a babys weight! If she was 5stone I'd understand....xx

Honestly I get it. My baba is skinny and tall, but he can put away food and people still make comments about his weight or how much he gets fed 🙄 it wouldn't be okay if he was a chubby baba, because if a baby is hungry they deserve food but he's not even chunky! Ignore them, every baby is perfect ❤️

Honestly, I have no clue why people have to force their unwanted opinions on us! My daughter is beautiful and absolutely perfect in every single way. As I'm sure all your gorgeous bubba's are! Xx

I have this issue but it’s people always saying “you need to feed her more” Because she’s so petite!!! The girl could eat for England and I’m getting mum shamed bc she’s “too small to be 9 month” all babies are different and so so many people forget that! I’m sure you’re doing amazing and your little one is gorgeous! X

@Becky oh bless her what a sweetheart. Can’t beat some chubby cheeks. Xx

@Katie omg! What a cutie!!! She is honestly adorable! Cheeks like my Molly xx

Honestly, Molly eats so healthy. Has protein and vegetables with every meal. Her weight is obviously how she's growing. Makes me feel so angry, imagine if someone just came up to you and was like....omg you're so fat, I can't believe how fat you are. No! They'd get a smack. Exactly what I feel like doing when they talk about my daughter. Vice versa, with a smaller baby! Every single baby is a different human, different shape and size! Honestly I'm so close to just screaming kep your vile opinions to yourself.

@Julia my baby weighs about 17lb 13oz on last weigh in xx

I get the same too. She is 9.5 m and weighs more than my niece who is 16m. I get so many comments. It’s stupid they are both their own person and grow at their own pace. Plus I love my babies rolls she’s a beauty xx

@jade what is your babies weight? I get a lot of the same comments and it stresses me our so much !

It’s ridiculous! I don’t get the fat side I get the oh she is so small so tiny. She weighs nothing. Why is she so tiny! It upsets me so much that people feel the need to say stuff like that! It’s ridiculous. They are babies and they grow at their own rate and pace and they are all perfect and healthy! There is no need to say anything about how big or small they are xxx
