Another commented: “It's not the carrier that's the problem, baby should be facing mummy, forward facing means their legs dangle and isn't good for their hips.” The remarks were met with defensive responses from Sam’s fans, one of whom said: “Love how all the people on here are "experts" are usually with private profiles. I never use to comment on stuff like this but since having my son I do now. “Who cares what way the baby is facing. He's a happy little bean that's all that matters! And that goes for everything. How they sleep, what they eat etc. Atleast baby has a loving family around him who looks after him. What else matters?!”A photo posted by Sam Faiers (@samanthafaiers1) on
This was echoed by many others. Another mum said: “OK I'm sure it is reassuring for mums and I'm certainly not bashing mums who like the research etc. Look we are all in the same boat as mummy's and how would you feel if you put this picture on and you had people commenting about it etc in a way people how. “We get a hard time as it is as mummas. People should just appreciate it for what it is. A beautiful picture of a mum and baby they wanted to share with the world. I'm pretty sure as well she would have looked at the instructions etc first. Just like we do with new things we get for our children. Just because they are celebrities makes them no different to any other mum”.My baby completed chapter 1 of swimming ??? #proudmama ? A photo posted by Sam Faiers (@samanthafaiers1) on
This prompted a debate of sorts with one of the original critics coming back with: “These are guidelines based on years of research... I'm not saying it's going to happen to her baby I'm just saying it increases the risk. “I wasn't aware of this when my daughter was younger but I'm glad I learnt it. I'm sure many mothers liked to be informed so they can make adjustments to make sure they can reduce the risk of harm coming into their baby. She just probably doesn't realise it CAN (not definitely will) cause problems”. Baby Wearing Ireland recommends the following guidelines when wearing a sling or carrier:❤️these two..
