Re: Let's discuss this blog...(BR)
I have read her blog and I am not sure what to think. Some of her thoughts are completely out there and when people tell her that something may not work out the way she think she always seems to have to prove them wrong.
When she was going to have her baby she picked out this skin tight mini dress and everyone said "oh you will be bloated and bleeding you won't want to wear that" Well she had to pose for a pic wearing the dress and then proceeded to say how she had barely any bleeding and was not swollen.
I think her attitude sometimes gets to me plus I think she is slightly crazy
Sara, I totally agree with you!
Her prenatal vitamin post put me over the edge! LOL
I think she's really pretty and I'd kill to have her body, but I really grates my nerves that she looks thinner than I do and I'm 4 mos postpartum. WTF.
Also her hospital pics are ridic....they make mine look like I was on my deathbed.

I did read it! I love that she packed in "stages" and left some bags in the car until she needed them.
I'd love to have been a fly on the wall during that labor and delivery! I can't wait to read the birth story!

:Blog:
Haha. I just read the first paragraph. I don't need to go any further. I get it.
She reminds me of Gisele. She insists that she had a natural childbirth, and it was just 100% painfree. And breastfeeding is the easiest thing on the planet.
I want to yell at her "Everyone hates you!"
OMG- this lady makes me want to punch her in the face. First of all- thank God she didnt have diabetes or anything else to interrupt her perfect pregnancy, perfect delivery and perfect postpartum experience. When life finally smacks her in the face I hope she blogs about it. I dont wish anything bad on anyone, but hell could she have it any easier.
a few points of interest to me- no iv fluids, no sticking the baby etc... thank the LORD she had the delivery she did. I would have died during pregnancy or ended up in a coma if it wasnt for the fluids and meds they had to push since my blood sugar was at 36 and dropping at one point. If it wasnt for fetal monitoring I might have lost Charlotte during delivery since she was having major issues.
No episiotomy- good thing she had a small head or a large hooha- I had between a 3rd and 4th degree bit down there. I asked for one since I had a friend who refused and she ripped from the front (yes all the way up) to the back. It required many procedures to fix and I wasnt doing that.
Her hospital bag is ridic. The fact she wore that dress home, didnt have to use the mesh panties and the giant pads good for her. I was passing giant clots for days after. Luckily I was able to transition but my belly never went away (still have a pooch) and I have PLENTY of stretchmarks. I was always properly hydrated, always oiled and lotioned myself and took good care of my body.
I honestly could read this every time I need a bitter fix.
Luckily doc agrees
Kel, I hear you!
I've also had one IRL friend of mine say that her c-section was easy and she'd opt for one next time. I was also like WTF about that. I had to sleep sitting up on my sofa for 2 weeks, couldn't go to the bathroom, was swollen as hell down there...and she's all like "it was great!"

I haven't read the blog, I'll probably check it out of curiousity momentarily, but I would first just like to say -
Rach, you look FABULOUS. Shush.
That is all.
Lol thank you:)
Definitely check it out! You won't be disappointed!;)

Ahhh, yes, Selfie.
Her H creeps me the *** out (serial killer?) ! In one of her comments, she writes that he is 42. Either he has some really good genetics or he has had a lot of work done.

I just spit on my computer- thank you Kel. I needed that. I still b*tch about the excess and people like her make me want to vomit. Have you seriously seen her pregnancy shots. I clicked on that tag and just laughed.
Also, I am glad her newborn is actually showing her what newborns are like. I figured she would be one that had the perfect newborn as well.
Okay, I have read it, and I have one thing to say.
Crazycakes.
/gavel
At lot of people think she used photoshop to make herself look skinnier (since she is so self-centered). I would not be surprised one bit if it's true.

You're better than I... I'm not even bothering.

Ha! They talk about her all the time on P&CE, especially with the post-delivery dress and her hospital packing. They call her the Russian mail order bride and there's a general consensus that her (creepy) husband is a closet gay. Apparently she used to post on the bump when she first found out she was pregnant.
And Rach, omg, I totally agree with you. I seriously don't get the people that go on and on about how much they loved their c-sec recovery. I actually kind of want to smack them...but I think that's just because mine sucked. But then, some people who had vag births have worse recoveries than most c-sec moms, so I guess it really is just luck of the draw.
I know, right?! What kind of surgery did they have??? I do not know.
