Chrissy Teigen hits back after mum-shamers criticise video of son Miles walking on tiled floor

'I have to block like 20-30 people every time I post my kids.'

When it comes to baby milestones, your little one’s first steps are a pretty special moment.

You’ve watched them grow from a helpless little bean who can’t even raise their head unsupported to a wobbly lightening bolt, walking all by themselves.

It’s enough to make you laugh, cry and feel super proud all at the same time.

Chrissy Teigen’s son Miles has been working towards his first steps recently and she’s been keeping her followers up to date on every bit of progress.

If her latest post is anything to go by, the 14-month-old is really getting the hang of walking.

Chrissy shared a video of Miles confidently bounding along with his three-year-old sister Luna looking on.

“Oh it is fuckin ON we are screwed,” his proud mum captioned the clip.

It’s a happy family moment but some followers took issue with Chrissy letting the baby walk on a tiled floor next to the edge of a marble bath.

“Wow such a safe area,” commented one.

“Learning to walk on hard marble with sharp tub corners?” wrote another.

Other followers jumped to Chrissy’s defence.

“So lucky so many people know how to parent your child. Good lord people, stay in your lane.”

“Everyone needs to calm down babies are super resilient and the hard floor is going to give more sensory feedback than a soft carpet.”

In typical fashion, Chrissy made it clear that she wasn’t about to take the mum-shaming lying down.

She told followers that she simply blocked anyone who shared criticism on her page.

“I have to block like 20-30 people every time I post my kids.

“So many dummies. Is someone forcing you at gunpoint to be annoying.”

Well said.
