Meghan

Am I alone in thinking that those feet look quite large for a newborn?

Yeah - go on. Find little things to quibble over.

Perhaps she had more than one favourite flower. Don't you?

Can't choose between pink tulips and nasturtiums myself.

I'm pretty sure a newborn's feet always look a bit big for the rest of it. Maybe they've got another Mo Farrer there.

Then it may have been one of her favourite flowers and not her favourite flower

Can't believe you Ab.

Farah. Apparently.

I don’t know who said it was her favourite flower - it certainly wasn’t on the post. Maybe the clue is simply in the name ‘forget-me-not’. Just give over ab it’s tedious.

I will post as I wish within the forum’s rules .

Of course you will ab and some of us will respond within the guidelines - it’s not us who end up looking rather silly.

Us? I post my own opinions, don’t need to be ‘us’, never did like Gang culture

I'm irritated by the way she seems to behave like a child - making a show about hiding but keen to be found. If this couple want to be as low key and private as is said, let them be, and good-oh, but posing in high heels in these circs and showing the world photographs of their baby's feet doesn't seem like it to me.

A lot of it is probably dreamed up by the media. Who knows? Give em the benefit of the doubt I say. She's done such a good job since she married in. And while she was preggers. Couldn't have done that myself. That is a well travelled baby.

She is manipulating the public and the media .

Here he is but you can’t see his face

Here are his feet

His hands next ?

Blimey! I’m no royalist but I’m glad I don’t have to run the gauntlet of this thread.

It takes some believing.

I wear my nails short with pale pink nail varnish. They look exactly like Megan’s. Anyone want to comment on that?

Queen Victoria had models made of her children’s feet, and I as it happens also took a similar photo to remember their tiny feet. Anyone care to comment on that?

You all need to get out more.

You must have the public and media estatic with joy Whitewave

Sad to say, I am finding the Duchess of Sussex and her husband increasingly tiresome.

The secrecy over the place of birth, a legal requirement for everyone else; the mess-up over the announcement of the birth, apparently to fit in with a Prime Time chat show; the very staged photographs in Windsor Castle; 'Harrison'; the celebration of International Mothers' Day, (who knew) plus the accompanying awful post; all accompanied by the constant refrain: 'we want an ordinary upbringing for our little global citizen in his its gender-neutral nursery'.
Very contrived.
Very American.
Very poor taste.
Yes, I am turning into Katie Hopkins.

"tiresome"?

I think Meghan is probably kinder than many on Gransnet.

Yes, I to find their manipulation of the public and media
tiresome,

Very American easybee ??

How, exactly?

Gender neutral nursery???

All my C & 4 of our GC had gender neutral nurseries as we did not know whether they were boys or girls. ( neither blue or pink, and with a selection of "neutral toys & books)

We have always taken photos of babies feet and hands.

As for the "staged photos", myself, D and DiLs could barely stand for days post partum, they presented the baby to the world, so it wasn't on the steps of a hospital- so what.

The majority on here are Grandparents and therefore have been new parents, take a moment to remember how you felt and how you would feel reading this thread if it was about your family!!

gg13 ??

They aren't the smallest feet I've seen either !

Did any of us announce to family and friends we would not be making an announcement, we will not say where the baby will be born, and then have details of the birth printed in the local newspaper

They are such sweet little feet. ???
