My baby was FIVE DAYS old when a woman in Asda asked when I was going to lose the baby weight – I couldn’t believe it

A MUM was left stunned when a woman in the supermarket asked when she was going to lose her baby weight – when her newborn was just FIVE days old.

Emily Dickinson took to TikTok to explain what had happened, sharing a video of herself with now eight-week-old baby Marliya and writing: “Me & Marliya when the old lady in Asda asked when I was going to lose the baby weight when she was five days old.”

“She was too stunned to speak,” she captioned the clip.

People quickly flocked to the comments section to offer Emily – who is also mum to two-year-old daughter Maybel – their support.

“Nah I would have thrown hands!” one wrote. “How can people still be asking those kind of questions!”

“Dorris would’ve been throat punched,” another added.

A third commented: “I got asked when I was due I only gave birth 4 days before.”

Another comment read: “No my father in law said to me the other day ‘there’s no rush to loose weight it will come off you eventually’.


“I knew he was trying to be nice but…”

While someone else wrote: “Girl wtf, some people.”

In another video on her account, Emily answered people asking why she would want to be a stay at home mum of two children at the age of just 20.

In response she shared a video of herself singing along to Lil Wayne’s 5 Star, lip syncing “I am out here living though.”

“Couldn’t agree more, I’m 20 with two kids under two,” someone commented on the video.

“I wouldn’t change it for the world.”

“I had two girls by 21 best thing ever,” another added.

“Now they are 9&11 and my besties.”

This mum wants to give her child an “ugly sounding name” that her partner hates.

And this woman had a pain-free labour and had no idea she was 5cm dilated – she had lunch first.
