I truly do not mean this to be another Meghan bashing thread...

I await the wrath of Tedber and the likes.

Dear #PrinceHarry,

Please intervene! You know how you both decided that you didn't need a nanny? Time to rethink that decision. Your wife is grimacing while trying to hang onto a child she doesn't know how to dress, to hold or to engage with.

She still looks pregnant - yet she looked thinner at Wimbledon - very strange. Does she have a stand in?

Callistemon Still fidgetting though lol

did you drop your DC, Tedber? Or catch him/her when he/she got down to knee level?
Well done!
Mine was always a fidget, still is.

You are obviously a very kind and pleasant person.

Did you really call me cruel and vicious?

Unbelievable.

Ha ha...not having nightmares and as for many photos. Insinuating what? Megan can't hold her baby?

I am not even that bothered about the Royal family so have never seen any other photos. I just don't 'get' what the OP is getting at! A first time mum, with her baby is all I see and nothing to be derogatory about.

Obviously I am wrong here for some reason?

Calm down, Tedber. Don't have nightmares.

There have been many photos on numerous news outlets, Tedber. Far too many photos to be honest.

WHAT? OMG...just don't get this dreadful thread at all! I am embarrassed to think a GNetter would even think it was even remotely worthy of posting!

One and I mean ONE still photo? Really? Can only be posted by someone who doesn't realise that babies squirm and wriggle and move about! Ha...dread to think what my one photo might have been? Baby round my knees or something???

Am shaking my head in disbelief that someone could be so cruel and vicious as to post this drivel.

Mmn , not man

Man. I think you do, gonegirl.

Absolutely, Iam64. Years ago my Grandma always used to say she'd not want to be in the Royal Fanily for love nor money. And that was long before the internet and all that goes with it. And yes ... that made me laugh ... of course you can leap out of planes wearing protection! Just the mention of them made me shudder and remember my first baby. I was only 20. Married to a crazy Spaniard living in the Canaries and I had a PPH and stitches etc and I had to resort to gigantic sanitary towels for a week or 2. One of my least favourite memories of motherhood! If you're born into Royalty I suppose you know what's coming and learn to cope but if I was Meghan I'd be pulling my hair out. Bird in a gilded cage. People are going to comment, endlessly, about anything and everything which is fair enough. Just goes with the job.

Aaaah, just checked the pictures
She's holding him with his ear near her heart; it's supposed to soothe babies, reminds them of when they were in the womb.
Sweet.

Minniemoo, she may have been wearing those things you can allegedly jump out of aeroplanes wearing, always I think the name is. Can't say they helped me during those awful menopausal decades, driving home as soon as I got to work because everything needed changing.
That's the thing sisterhood. Those of us who've been lucky enough to be young mothers (or not so young in many cases) and to have survived through the menopause and beyond, we'll know a thing or two about managing various fluids over those years. Tears included in the managing of fluid fronts. those young wives of Windsor may never have to worry about paying bills but I am so relieved that I didn't live under a microscope and that my own daughters can survive (just) having their babies, learning how to hold them, feed them, whether to let hem cry for a whole minute, etc, without having the world's press photographing and cataloguing every mistake, every frock.

I think I held DD1 awkwardly but that is because she was rather an awkward baby, always fidgeting (sorry DD1, I love you very much).
DS snuggled in nicely.

Well I think we can safely say that she's fortunately not wearing giant sanitary towels now. The jeans she wore to Wimbledon proves that!

blimey aren't you all counting....and definitely not giving an inch.

Giant sanitary towels, stitches?.....The baby is two months old!!!

Sheesh.......so many pictures in get taken in rapid succession of these folks that I suspect there is one of her that looks like she's strangling it!
Some folks need to lay orf....can you imagine what she's coping with.....giant sanitary towels, stiches, lumpy boobs everyone wanting her to look awful/wonderful/thin/fat ....and drop dead gorgeous!

I am possibly thinking about this far too much. I have no idea if she's a breast or a bottle feeder. But if she's a breast feeder there can be leakage. And looking at the material of that dress it looks pretty unforgiving to me. So maybe, just maybe, she's holding him in such an odd way as to avoid any glimpses of damp patches. So that's just my pointless point of view. As you were!

I had our second baby daughter in the carry cot we had used for her older sister. Remember we all (I think) used to put a carry cot on the back seat of the car - just slide it along? (Or was that just me - horrors!)

Anyway, it had had some use.

I had my newish baby in it, was walking out of the front door when one of the handles snapped and my baby rolled out onto the carpet, bunched up in a cot sheet!

Oh god I don’t know who was more startled - me or the baby!

Perhaps that was taken mid changing position. There was another photo shown where he was all snuggled in to his mummy and she was gently kissing the top of his head. Maybe we could have discussed that one instead.

Oh, and I've just remembered, I went to see my cousin when her baby was about 10 days old. She stood there proudly holding her little girl. That was before she dropped her, just managing to grab hold of her by her matinee jacket before she his the floor.

I didn't think it was Meghan bashing. It was lighthearted?

No. She wouldn't risk being snapped and the dress has no false front.
