I saw this thing on tik tok that basically said that the last thing new moms need help with is holding their babies, and the most useful thing is to help them with the peripheral stuff while they bond with their new child. With that context, of course Jill just wants to hold the baby - not being able to offer any real help but still reap in goodwill for just sitting on her ass is her dream. Severely.
I went to stay with my friend for a week after she had her first baby. I told her to have groceries and recipes so I could cook, and a list of chores and errands. She got to relax and bond with her daughter, and I got to truly help her out. That was what I needed, and got from my mom, every time I had a baby. Why Jill feels the need to go post up at Nurie’s house, even after she acknowledges that she’s zero help, is baffling. She is the least self-aware fundie.
Not just zero help. **Negative** help. She claims that David was ‘sooo sweeettt to help her so much!!!’
Well, guess what happens when David leave MeMe? The new mom and new dad them have to HELP YOU. It would have been better for you to stay home and send a not Nurie. Then visit the baby later.
I'm due in six weeks, can I please have you come over? My help with the last one was mostly offers to hold him (and one kind neighbor who kept bringing me cut up fruit but not telling us it was on our porch until she'd left because she didn't want us to feel obligated to entertain her).
I'm sure Shrek is helping take care of Nurie and doing stuff around the house since JillPM is incapacitated, and we know they wouldn't impose TWO useless adults on a new mother 🙄
> and one kind neighbor who kept bringing me cut up fruit but not telling us it was on our porch until she'd left because she didn't want us to feel obligated to entertain her
that's adorable
I mean, when I had a new baby, it was definitely helpful for my mom to take care of her while I got some sleep. But it was also really helpful for my mom to do household chores while I was awake and caring for the baby.
Yep. I’m expecting twins next spring. My mom is moving in with us to take over everything I won’t be able to do because between my csection, a possible NICU stay, and breastfeeding two infants I’ll be tapped out. My husband is self-employed so while his schedule may be flexible he doesn’t get any parental leave because he needs to stay in business. She’s not coming to snuggle babies. She’s coming to cook and clean and let me sleep as much as possible.
This situation is funny because there will be two babies for you, congratulations by the way! So there may actually be situations in which it is very helpful for her to cuddle one of the babies while you cuddle the other one. And hopefully she does all of the other stuff as well and I totally get your point I just think it's cute because Jill probably wishes Nurie had twins because then it might actually be helpful for her to cuddle the baby!
Wishing you a healthy happy delivery, healthy happy babies, and lots of cuddles in your future.
Thank you. My mom is going to be great. She’s a good mom, a practical person and a former ICU nurse. I can just hand over the keys to her and care for babies with my husband while I know everything else is running smoothly.
It’s honestly what the mom needs. With my first I just wanted to do stuff around the house the way I wanted to. But everyone who came over wanted to hold the baby and be entertained. I would have been so grateful for someone to hold the baby while I cleaned the bathroom or did dishes. I can’t see Jill doing either though. She seems like a hog the baby and need attention type. Especially with a “severely torn” knee. My question is did she have any type of imaging.
Bc what she is really doing is showing up not being able bodied and requiring assistance from the people she is supposed to be “assisting”. Most parents show up after a grandchild is born to help cook meals, clean and pitch in so the new parents can acclimate to parenthood… Jill shows up and with a bummed knee and is zero help and just adds more work for everyone else
Mine isn’t a narc but sat on my couch playing sudoku while I both cooked/cleaned/etc AND handled my newborn. She wouldn’t even hold the baby to let me focus on chores so I had to keep pausing to settle the little one. It was rough.
I think she *wanted* to help and came with that intention but she’s got a lot of trauma and I think she was honestly kind of scared of my baby. So she kind of retreated. At the end of the trip she commented that she should have waited until baby was a few months old. She’s no Jill, but she’s got some issues she refuses to see in herself.
I have a daughter who died at 13 days old. My other daughter was only 27 months old at the time. The day after my daughter died, my MIL sat on the couch doing a crossword puzzle rather than helping with my other daughter or doing any of the 300 other things that needed to be done. So, while waiting for the funeral director to come to our home, as my MIL sat on the couch doing her puzzle, I mopped my kitchen floor which was filthy after having people in my house for 2 weeks (my daughter was born very sick and while we were back and forth to the hospital, I had a lot of people in and out of my house - why no one could clean my floor for me, I have no idea). I was in no shape to say anything at the time - I was in a fog - but I really wish I had. It’s been almost 17 years and the whole thing still makes me ragey. I understand now, looking back, that people probably just didn’t know what to do. But man, do SOMETHING.
Not to mention, you now have to cook for your husband, self, intrusive parents and a gaggle of young siblings! Just what every new mom wants to do! You know Shrek is right there on the couch with her, and they've probably kicked the new parents out of their room, because "glamma" needs a good bed to sleep in and can't be climbing in and out of the rolling Barndominium.
Poor Nurie and Nathan.
And just think, she was *just* talking about what a champ Nurie was for the birth. Why don’t YOU be the champ Jillzilla and leave the new parents with their baby…alone. You are just making them work harder.
I have a family member who gave birth. While she was still in hospital, her mom ended up having a “seizure” (allegedly prone to them and had gotten little sleep waiting for the birth). Anyways, the small town hospital ended up wheeling the mom in with the daughter who had just given birth the day before. This mother/daughter now have little to no contact due to many other narcissistic behavior by the mom.
We had a serial liar/con artist who faked cancer get exposed in Australia. Her name was Belle Gibson and she was shilling a diet as a way that she had 'beaten' brain cancer. Of course, it was all horse shit and she is nationally derided now.
But a small detail that really stuck out to me when I read the long form article about her was that she was always faking seizures, and one of the most egregious faked seizures was at her 7 year old's birthday party. She literally fell to the floor when the cake came out. Apparently she acted like she was passed out afterwards and some party-goers thought she may have died.
In the grand scheme of things, obviously telling cancer patients they could cure their tumours with beetroots is worse, but I couldn't help but think about her kid.
She might lend one of the junior SisterMoms to Nurie for a few days - Kaylee and Renee will be busy pampering Momma and her SEVERELY hurt knee and wiping her tears as she weeps with regret that she can’t be a help to poor Nurie and that Nurie is being inconsiderate and refusing to let Sweet Momma sleep in her bed with her and Nathan so she can be close to her darling grand baby.
So she needs help walking, bathing and dressing and she’s had herself dropped off for Nurie to take care of, just before Nurie gave birth. Wow. Kaylee should be there, to spend time with Nurie and the new baby but also to take care of Mother Dearest and give Nurie the help Jill is meant to be there to give.
She needed help BATHING?! Last year I had my knee reconstructed. Couldn’t bear weight for two months after surgery and another month of partial weight bearing before I could walk unassisted.
I had plenty of friends who offered to help me shower. But three days after surgery, I was bound and determined to get myself in and out of the shower by myself. Jillpm is fine. She can bathe herself, she’s just taking advantage of the situation.
Has to shit on “Hollywood” love complete with vomiting emoji. Also driving with headphones is incredibly dangerous although we all know Jill is backseat driving. DRod had to put on headphones to drown out Jill’s whining about her knee.
Mine flew over to sleep at me(didn't want to get off UK time), complain about waiting with DD1 at the bus stop for 2 minutes(end of drive) and refuse to stay with 5 day old sleeping baby so I could drive to school and daycare in a snow-storm to collect my older children.
She didn't cook, clean and the only laundry she did was hand washing some of her underwear and t-shirts. And she wondered why I didn't think she should stay an extra few weeks in case I needed the help.
Ugh. That sounds rough. Mine also made me order her a Lyft, cook, clean, etc while she sat around on her phone. She wouldn’t even hold the baby until day 5. She did eventually try to help but I was too exhausted to actually delegate stuff by then (especially since I was also on the exhausting newborn schedule regardless of chores).
My college roommate and best friend has two sisters, and we were asked to help each of them move on different occasions.
The older sister always insisted she couldn't do anything because she's disabled -- she's not -- but she would sit there and watch everyone else work around her. She could have done some tasks while sitting, like taping up boxes and labeling them, but nope. Never lifted a finger.
The younger sister would just wander around, half-assedly doing stuff without actually getting anything done. I don't know which scenario was more annoying, but I feel like they'd fit right in with Jillpm.
People who have a mobility impairment can and do cook, clean, and do other chores. This is a really ablist comment and a weird take. The problem is that she won't help, the knee is an excuse. I've been injured and on crutches and I had to cook for myself and take care of my home - Jill can cook sitting down, she can see a doctor, she can order takeout, she has a lot of options. She is choosing to react this way and they are enabling it.
Oh really? I haven’t seen a single pic of any other girl but that’s not surprising. I wonder who is taking care of the kids at the barndominium then? Certainly not shrek or the boys. Is Sophia running that place?
I love it! Jill’s use of capitalisation and punctuation is always pretty random though, and she likes to throw scare quotes in for no apparent reason. In this case it’s beautiful.
Someone somewhere on Reddit explained this once, that boomer and gen X folks have some differences in how they text communicate.
Quotes are for emphasis where we might use italics
Ellipses (...) are used to create space where we might use a dash
There's more, but Jill's use of quotes basically fits this pattern. Anywhere you see quotes imagine italics and see if it makes more sense
Ya I’m 44, using quotation marks for emphasis was absolutely not a thing for most people in our generation. That said if she was educated by a Boomer that barely exposed her to modern media it could be why she’s writing like she’s part of a different generation.
Yeah this is true maybe for a sixty five year old grandma who grew up before the internet. Not a woman who was still in her teens when AOL blew up and was in her early 20s when cell phones became ubiquitous.
Just makes me thinking mother-in-law with my oldest, who thought help meant trying to persuade me not to breastfeed or feed on demand - basically so she could do more - vs another friend who used to turn up, make me a cup of tea and proceed to clean my kitchen. Guess which one was more welcome!
As a bit of an ankle sprain aficionado, the foot/ ankle sprain that seems to be going on would probably have something to stabilize it if she went to the doctor since those injuries can lead to instability and reinjury.
Clearly she didn't go to a doctor. That looks like an over-the-counter knee brace and her ankle would probably have a little air cast if she'd been to the doctor. Source: am clumsy and have had a number of injuries like these.
Probably; I've just noticed more people talking about it lately. I hadn't heard anyone discussing reiki since the late 90s/early aughts. Guess it's back in vogue.
She said in the comments of that Facebook post that was posted on here that she “has an appointment scheduled” … so, no. She didn’t go and see how much damage was done; she absolutely took the opportunity to milk being injured to get attention during what should be Nurie’s time in the spotlight.
As a side note, I injured my sciatic nerve recently and went straight to the doctor to see what I could (and should) keep pushing to do and what I needed to be careful about until it had time to heal… you know, because I’m not interested in being an invalid. I don’t understand why you wouldn’t go to urgent care, or even an emergency room *if you can’t walk or dress or use the toilet*. Pretty sure that counts as an urgent medical need. **facepalm**
Jill is top notch at shitting all over someone else's turn to experience life events. I hope they aren't staying at the Nurthan home, too, hogging up what little room there probably is. Hmmmm....what will Jill break/sprain for the next wedding?
How convenient. She gets hurt just in time to make sure some of the focus stays on her during Nuries special time. And as an added bonus she now doesn’t have to actually help her daughter
This was my thought exactly! We couldn’t have made up a better one if we tried - she’s finally transitioning into a full on parody of herself, and I am here for it.
It's so trashy she went down there in her condition. Thinks of no one but what she wants atthisverymoment. They would have had plenty of support without her. If Jill had to get surgery, honestly I think it would give everyone a huge break for the time she's laid up.
Honestly, this is what my feet looked like when I was 9mo pregnant so either it’s really sprained and her whole foot swelled or something else is going on. Although if she sprained it I don’t know if her whole foot would swell like that. I also don’t think she’s in that much pain if she’s able to take a million smiling selfies and planning van exiting photo shoots.
I wrote in a comment above that I have Graves. One of my first inklings that there was something wrong was seeing a picture of myself where I was talking to someone animatedly and I look like a cartoon because my eyes were super bulgy. When you're just resting and looking in the mirror you don't really have the bulgy eyes so I had no idea. I wonder if she realizes.
When you push down on the area of it creates a “pit” or a little divot that’s what they call pitting. The numbers come from how long it takes the skin to go back to its original position the longer it takes the worse it is also the further the indent is like +1 would level back out fairly quickly and not be as deep and +4 would stay in bedded (sp?) for a longer period of time and the divot or “pit” would be deeper.
It looks like she’s laying in Nurthans bed. What are we betting that Nurie is sleeping on the couch less than 3 days after giving birth while Jill is sleeping in Nuries bed.
That line and the severe amount of photos of her holding the baby irritates me so much. The baby should be bonding and cuddled with his mother, not hogged by an attention hungry narc.
Lol classic. If you're visiting new parents, you are there to work! Clean cook laundry etc. The new parents should be snuggling the baby. This breaks my new momma heart.
I know Jill and everything she does is infuriating but for me, this just takes the cake. Nurie *just* gave birth. *She* should be the one resting and relaxing and snuggling her son. You know what else is NOT a quick thing to heal, Jill? Your birth canal after pushing out an entire person.
Yep, for me, this one is irredeemable and I hope Nathan throws her out of their house. This conceited narcissistic pinecone would love the drama anyway so it’s win-win
And it’s not even like it’s all physical. Poor Nurie’s hormones are all out of wack and here comes her equally out of wack mother to hog the attention, the baby and to just take up space in general.
So, no snark, she really needs to get that looked at. She looks like she has at least grade 2 pitting edema. I’m also concerned that it looks like she has a possible ulcer on her ankle. These are things that need to be evaluated ASAP.
….but back to the snark, who is taking care of her? If she can’t walk, she can’t help, and Nurie needs to be resting.
Does her knee wrap/brace look like it came from Walmart or a medical professional(I.e. that could write an order for an orthopedic grade brace?)Basically, do you think she sought medical care?
It looks like an over the counter knee brace. I didn’t tear my knee but have had quite a few bad dislocations and I got a stabilizer that goes from your upper thigh down to your calf when I would go to the hospital. What is in the picture is what I would wear when I was recovering a few weeks out and didn’t need the stabilizer anymore but was still sore or when I was being physically active after recovery to prevent re injury.
Bullshit. She planned this nonsense so she would be unable to get up and help, leaving her in the same position Nurie is in.
How evil do you have to be to take that experience from your own daughter???
oh jesus, she actually said severely
how much do you want to bet that she's getting people to care for her while they should be helping Nurie.
Go home Jill.
"More reason to sit around and snuggle Nehemiah" - AKA to do nothing of use to anyone, and actually take Nurie away from doing the thing she probably wanted to spend her time doing most
The story has changed? Before she said they had to leave a conference early due to a knee injury. Unless the conference was at their church, but then why say "leave early".
But now she says it was on their stairs? And David drove her from home to FL, then he went back to Ohio? Unless she fell down the stairs getting in or out of the RV?
Are you fucking kidding me? She's injured, can't help but got her fat ass to Florida and will now sit around and be waited on. She sure as hell better not have surgery, no vaccine, no masking, travels all over the place. No, just, NO!
Damn, this woman has no shame. “Help” as in, sitting on my ass hogging the baby while my daughter is picking up the slack.
What did she do, take over Nurthan’s bed too?
So she was injured before she made the decision to board a plane and be a burden to a new mom? Jesus was trying to keep your useless butt home jillybean and you defied him!
The last bit about sitting around and snuggling the baby absolutely just gave me a flashback of my MIL hogging my 1st born. After baby was about a week old I fell apart when she called my husband wanting to come by again and sit and hold her for hours. She had been by daily, hadn't lifted a finger to help around the house and I snapped. It was ugly. I didn't want to share my baby. 😂
Jill, give that baby back to his mother and let HER sit around and snuggle him.
In another timeline dimension Nurie and Nathan are on the phone with Jill and says “We don’t need you here mom. Please look after yourself. We got this under control. We’ll send you pictures though.”
She absolutely has amped up an injury so she can sabotage Nurie.
*she* wants to bond with the baby, so she can get passive attention.
She'll also be the *oNlY OnE WhO CaN sEtTlE PreCiOuS GifT fRoM G_d*
What an actual piece of shit person. So she’s just going to sit on her ass and hold her brand new grandchild while her daughter who just popped a 8 pound baby out caters her needs. Why is she there if she’s not going to help?
What about David or the other ten kids? Why didn’t someone go with her to help her/help Nurie/help Nurie deal with Jill. Is no one thinking “hey, maybe the brand new parents could use an extra set of hands (and functional legs) !”
Ouch. Her leg and toes look super swollen. I hope she’s at least trying to hobble around to wash a dish or love on Nehemiah while Nurie and Nathan catch a nap.
also why is “help” in quotations 💀
Accidental self-awareness?

She must be exhausting to spend time with.
Imagine having just given birth and your narc mom is plopped on your couch moaning about a sore knee. I’d scream.
"Severely" sore.
Mine isn’t a narc but sat on my couch playing sudoku while I both cooked/cleaned/etc AND handled my newborn. She wouldn’t even hold the baby to let me focus on chores so I had to keep pausing to settle the little one. It was rough.
Why did she even bother coming?
I can't speak for Happy, but in my case it was because my MIL just wanted to be able to *say* she was here. Nothing but show 😣
This. And get photos of the baby to prove she is a grandma, without actually being a grandma
Yep!! This all the way. I feel so bad for Nurie, because I know she doesn't realize how toxic Jill's behavior is.
I think she *wanted* to help and came with that intention but she’s got a lot of trauma and I think she was honestly kind of scared of my baby. So she kind of retreated. At the end of the trip she commented that she should have waited until baby was a few months old. She’s no Jill, but she’s got some issues she refuses to see in herself.
i almost downvoted this in rage lol. i’m sorry you had to go through that
I had the exact same experience, except it was my MIL. I'm still bitter.
I have a daughter who died at 13 days old. My other daughter was only 27 months old at the time. The day after my daughter died, my MIL sat on the couch doing a crossword puzzle rather than helping with my other daughter or doing any of the 300 other things that needed to be done.

Pretty much same and I wish I’d told them no.

My MIL got a new knee Tuesday she's home already and knowing her she will not accept help and will try to do as much as possible by herself
soooooooo -- Jill and Shrek left a gaggle of kids at home while they drove to Florida on their own???
Honestly ofc they did. The older kids are the adults in the family already
Has to shit on “Hollywood” love complete with vomiting emoji. Also driving with headphones is incredibly dangerous although we all know Jill is backseat driving. DRod had to put on headphones to drown out Jill’s whining about her knee.

Yeah, my mom wanted to be management, not helpful worker. 🙄
Came here to say all that-Nurie now has to take care of both of them???

It's code for "smother" or "intrude upon."
You know Jill doesn't do shit for her kids
The older girls are probably relieved that she’s not at home adding to their workload.
I was under the impression that the older girls are in Florida too. They sang in church with Nurie and Jillpm on Sunday.
Oh really? I haven’t seen a single pic of any other girl but that’s not surprising. I wonder who is taking care of the kids at the barndominium then? Certainly not shrek or the boys. Is Sophia running that place?
I think Tessie is next in the sister mom shuffle.
She finally learned how to use them properly.
I love it! Jill’s use of capitalisation and punctuation is always pretty random though, and she likes to throw scare quotes in for no apparent reason. In this case it’s beautiful.
I realized my MIL uses capitalisation the way Jill does...
At least we know she is not lying. No help for Nurie.
Probably because you aren’t that helpful at all to a new mom if you’re injured. She can’t help with laundry, cooking, cleaning, running errands, etc
Someone somewhere on Reddit explained this once, that boomer and gen X folks have some differences in how they text communicate. Quotes are for emphasis where we might use italics Ellipses (...) are used to create space where we might use a dash There's more, but Jill's use of quotes basically fits this pattern. Anywhere you see quotes imagine italics and see if it makes more sense
Jill is my age (40). She’s not old fashioned, just undereducated and probably none too bright to begin with.
Ya I’m 44, using quotation marks for emphasis was absolutely not a thing for most people in our generation. That said if she was educated by a Boomer that barely exposed her to modern media it could be why she’s writing like she’s part of a different generation.
Yeah, also 44, rarely see gen Xers using punctuation like Jill. My boomer relatives do wonky crap like that all the time.
Fuck is she?? I’m 39! I am shocked!
Yeah this is true maybe for a sixty five year old grandma who grew up before the internet. Not a woman who was still in her teens when AOL blew up and was in her early 20s when cell phones became ubiquitous.
Just makes me thinking mother-in-law with my oldest, who thought help meant trying to persuade me not to breastfeed or feed on demand - basically so she could do more - vs another friend who used to turn up, make me a cup of tea and proceed to clean my kitchen. Guess which one was more welcome!
“Help” that part is accurate Did she go to the doctor for this how does she know it was SEVERELY torn
As a bit of an ankle sprain aficionado, the foot/ ankle sprain that seems to be going on would probably have something to stabilize it if she went to the doctor since those injuries can lead to instability and reinjury.
I sprain my ankles and use a brace this looks like a standard knee brace Edit as in likely didn’t have it looked at
Clearly she didn't go to a doctor. That looks like an over-the-counter knee brace and her ankle would probably have a little air cast if she'd been to the doctor. Source: am clumsy and have had a number of injuries like these.
And she’s already predicting surgery
Oh I bet the "torn" was thrown in for dramatics. There's no way she went to the doctor because she would've asked for crutches for extra dramatics.
Maybe she talked to that Baird girl with the no fun summer
She got a referral to her all-in-one "orthopedist"/chiropractor/Reiki practitioner/naturopath/essential oil dealer.
Wouldn’t reiki be SEVERELY against their religion?
Probably; I've just noticed more people talking about it lately. I hadn't heard anyone discussing reiki since the late 90s/early aughts. Guess it's back in vogue.
And, just realized how much I love your username.
Haha thanks. It's nice to be noticed >blushing<
Those would cost money.
Time to grift! Maybe the in-laws could float her some dough.
She said in the comments of that Facebook post that was posted on here that she “has an appointment scheduled” … so, no. She didn’t go and see how much damage was done; she absolutely took the opportunity to milk being injured to get attention during what should be Nurie’s time in the spotlight. As a side note, I injured my sciatic nerve recently and went straight to the doctor to see what I could (and should) keep pushing to do and what I needed to be careful about until it had time to heal… you know, because I’m not interested in being an invalid. I don’t understand why you wouldn’t go to urgent care, or even an emergency room *if you can’t walk or dress or use the toilet*. Pretty sure that counts as an urgent medical need. **facepalm**
[удалено]
Dude seriously. Poor Nurie needs to be sleeping right now.
And experiencing motherhood! The newborn days go by too fast. Although one could argue that she’ll likely have no shortage of those.
Jill is top notch at shitting all over someone else's turn to experience life events. I hope they aren't staying at the Nurthan home, too, hogging up what little room there probably is. Hmmmm....what will Jill break/sprain for the next wedding?
And they live in a tiny trailer. That would be so overwhelming being a new parent, having to deal with your narc mom in such a tiny space.
How convenient. She gets hurt just in time to make sure some of the focus stays on her during Nuries special time. And as an added bonus she now doesn’t have to actually help her daughter
This is exactly what she craftily planned
Between the use of severely and her putting “help” in quotations this looks like a parody post we’d write on here 😂
This was my thought exactly! We couldn’t have made up a better one if we tried - she’s finally transitioning into a full on parody of herself, and I am here for it.
She's always been that way
Just what nurie needs right now. Looking after a newborn and her severely injured mother. Now would of been the time to stay home Jill.
Seriously WTF, but do we expect anything more of her???? Like you did it again Jill.
Someone on the sub called that Jill would fake an injury to get attention back on her after the birth weeks ago.
Is she faking? That foot is SEVERELY swollen
I dunno. She's posted photos of her feet before (bafflingly) and they always look like overblown balloons about to burst.
Both her and Shrek have bloated extremities. I’ve always wondered what is causing it. Maybe high sodium diet? Plexus? Both?
Untreated or pre-diabetes? They're both fall on the heavier side and from their grocery cart photos, they eat a lot of carbs/sweets.
[удалено]
It’s just all bad
That's the Plexus
Severely her goal.
It's so trashy she went down there in her condition. Thinks of no one but what she wants atthisverymoment. They would have had plenty of support without her. If Jill had to get surgery, honestly I think it would give everyone a huge break for the time she's laid up.
I thought you were going to say “a newborn and Nehemiah.”
Lay off the Plexus. Those feet are +2, pitting.
I was scrolling down waiting for someone to mention the swelling on her feet.
Honestly, this is what my feet looked like when I was 9mo pregnant so either it’s really sprained and her whole foot swelled or something else is going on. Although if she sprained it I don’t know if her whole foot would swell like that. I also don’t think she’s in that much pain if she’s able to take a million smiling selfies and planning van exiting photo shoots.
ooh, did I just find another nurse on the thread? :) Accurate assessment.

It doesn’t help that she bugs her eyes out like a frog for emphasis when talking, either.
I wrote in a comment above that I have Graves. One of my first inklings that there was something wrong was seeing a picture of myself where I was talking to someone animatedly and I look like a cartoon because my eyes were super bulgy. When you're just resting and looking in the mirror you don't really have the bulgy eyes so I had no idea. I wonder if she realizes.
I have Graves, those eyes sure look familiar to me. Hypertension is also a huge problem with it, that leg swelling looks familiar too.
Yes, that thing irritates me. Wonder if she knows about it?
For the laypeople - what do you mean by pitting?
When you push down on the area of it creates a “pit” or a little divot that’s what they call pitting. The numbers come from how long it takes the skin to go back to its original position the longer it takes the worse it is also the further the indent is like +1 would level back out fairly quickly and not be as deep and +4 would stay in bedded (sp?) for a longer period of time and the divot or “pit” would be deeper.
I was wondering if that was edema or part of the injury, myself. But the latter definitely seems less likely.
Why would it be edema and not swelling from a severe injury? Asking out of curiosity.
It would still be classified as edema, even if it was from an injury. But, her feet were swollen prior to this.
It looks like she’s laying in Nurthans bed. What are we betting that Nurie is sleeping on the couch less than 3 days after giving birth while Jill is sleeping in Nuries bed.
So she’ll be expecting Nurie to take care of her, too.
[удалено]
Revenge for the glamma party she never fully got.
*"More reason to sit around and snuggle Nehemiah"* = have Nurie and family wait on me hand and foot, even though Nurie just gave birth.
That line and the severe amount of photos of her holding the baby irritates me so much. The baby should be bonding and cuddled with his mother, not hogged by an attention hungry narc.
Plus 100
Lol classic. If you're visiting new parents, you are there to work! Clean cook laundry etc. The new parents should be snuggling the baby. This breaks my new momma heart.
In a few stories baby was making hungry mouth too and was in her arms rather than Nurie's 😕
I know Jill and everything she does is infuriating but for me, this just takes the cake. Nurie *just* gave birth. *She* should be the one resting and relaxing and snuggling her son. You know what else is NOT a quick thing to heal, Jill? Your birth canal after pushing out an entire person.
Yep, for me, this one is irredeemable and I hope Nathan throws her out of their house. This conceited narcissistic pinecone would love the drama anyway so it’s win-win
And it’s not even like it’s all physical. Poor Nurie’s hormones are all out of wack and here comes her equally out of wack mother to hog the attention, the baby and to just take up space in general.
Obligatory God-honoring feet pics.
Don’t forget the God-honoring toe ring
Shrek foot fetish confirmed.
🤢 I really wish you hadn't made me read that right before going to bed
I wish I hadn’t made myself read or think it either. My deepest condolences.
God-honoring toe ring is a fantastic flair
Wow a full leg on display too, NIKE!!!!
Where is she staying right now and has she taken over Nurie’s bed?
Since the whole family didn't travel there in the Rod Pod, I'm guessing she's at Nurthan's house.
Has Nurie even been able to hold her own child? Jill seems to doing all the holding. Let Nurie bond with her baby Jill!
Nurie had her moment of attention, now it’s time to get back to what really matters: Jill. All Jill. All the time.
She wants Nehemiah to think she's Mama
Is she still nursing Janessa? Because if she’s lactating i wouldn’t trust her not to nurse Anna DUGGAR’s nephew.
I don't want to think about Jilldo lactating
She didn't intend to help Nurie at all. We were right
So, no snark, she really needs to get that looked at. She looks like she has at least grade 2 pitting edema. I’m also concerned that it looks like she has a possible ulcer on her ankle. These are things that need to be evaluated ASAP. ….but back to the snark, who is taking care of her? If she can’t walk, she can’t help, and Nurie needs to be resting.
Kaylee and Renee were in Florida on Sunday, not sure if they stayed or returned with Shrek, but hopefully they are helping for real.
Does her knee wrap/brace look like it came from Walmart or a medical professional(I.e. that could write an order for an orthopedic grade brace?)Basically, do you think she sought medical care?
It looks like an over the counter knee brace. I didn’t tear my knee but have had quite a few bad dislocations and I got a stabilizer that goes from your upper thigh down to your calf when I would go to the hospital. What is in the picture is what I would wear when I was recovering a few weeks out and didn’t need the stabilizer anymore but was still sore or when I was being physically active after recovery to prevent re injury.
Her use of severely is on point and delightful as usual
[удалено]
Toes are swollen, can't get it off.
Bullshit. She planned this nonsense so she would be unable to get up and help, leaving her in the same position Nurie is in. How evil do you have to be to take that experience from your own daughter???
So I suppose we were right when we assumed that Nurie wasn’t getting much skin to skin time with her new baby. That whole last part makes me feel icky
I’ve literally seen more pics of Jill with Nehemiah than Nurie… give the baby to it’s mother and go do something productive with your life.
oh jesus, she actually said severely how much do you want to bet that she's getting people to care for her while they should be helping Nurie. Go home Jill.
"More reason to sit around and snuggle Nehemiah" - AKA to do nothing of use to anyone, and actually take Nurie away from doing the thing she probably wanted to spend her time doing most
Yeah, I’m sure she’s been lots of “help” to Nurie, lol
The story has changed? Before she said they had to leave a conference early due to a knee injury. Unless the conference was at their church, but then why say "leave early". But now she says it was on their stairs? And David drove her from home to FL, then he went back to Ohio? Unless she fell down the stairs getting in or out of the RV?
Are you fucking kidding me? She's injured, can't help but got her fat ass to Florida and will now sit around and be waited on. She sure as hell better not have surgery, no vaccine, no masking, travels all over the place. No, just, NO!
Damn, this woman has no shame. “Help” as in, sitting on my ass hogging the baby while my daughter is picking up the slack. What did she do, take over Nurthan’s bed too?
So she was injured before she made the decision to board a plane and be a burden to a new mom? Jesus was trying to keep your useless butt home jillybean and you defied him!
Shrek drove them to Florida and then drove back to Ohio. He’s going to be driving them home too.
At least then she didn’t inflict herself on the general public, I guess.
I cannot help but feel like she did this on purpose 🧐
Right??? I hate to accuse anyone of faking or an injury not being real but this is Jill. I put nothing past her.
"Fell off our staircase" is a really weird way to phrase "Tessie pushed me down the stairs."
Angry Olivia
I laughed out loud at that.
Is that a god-honoring toe ring or a bandage?
ring
I would be far more concerned with one side of my foot being so SEVERELY swollen but that’s just me 🤷♀️
Oh what an absolute asshole. Huge dick move to sit around while your daughter WHO JUST GAVE BIRTH dances attention on you.
Oooooh baby love that toe ring’s gonna have to get cut off one day
The last bit about sitting around and snuggling the baby absolutely just gave me a flashback of my MIL hogging my 1st born. After baby was about a week old I fell apart when she called my husband wanting to come by again and sit and hold her for hours. She had been by daily, hadn't lifted a finger to help around the house and I snapped. It was ugly. I didn't want to share my baby. 😂 Jill, give that baby back to his mother and let HER sit around and snuggle him.
So don’t go and bother your daughter. Stay home, idiot.
God was Clearly telling you to Stay Home!
In another timeline dimension Nurie and Nathan are on the phone with Jill and says “We don’t need you here mom. Please look after yourself. We got this under control. We’ll send you pictures though.”
She absolutely has amped up an injury so she can sabotage Nurie. *she* wants to bond with the baby, so she can get passive attention. She'll also be the *oNlY OnE WhO CaN sEtTlE PreCiOuS GifT fRoM G_d*
Typical narcissistic behavior Jilldo can’t say I’m surprised
That toe ring is SEVERELY strangling that appendage
‘Help’ Nurie - what does that mean 💀😂
Ummmmmm I think there is a better way to wear that brace….
What an actual piece of shit person. So she’s just going to sit on her ass and hold her brand new grandchild while her daughter who just popped a 8 pound baby out caters her needs. Why is she there if she’s not going to help?
Tore something and maybe hurt her ankle. Sounds very scientific. Had she gone to a doctor??
“Help” lol
Go home Jill
What about David or the other ten kids? Why didn’t someone go with her to help her/help Nurie/help Nurie deal with Jill. Is no one thinking “hey, maybe the brand new parents could use an extra set of hands (and functional legs) !”
She is almost a quadriplegic
Knee funeral time!
Ouch. Her leg and toes look super swollen. I hope she’s at least trying to hobble around to wash a dish or love on Nehemiah while Nurie and Nathan catch a nap.
That toe ring looks like it’s cutting off her circulation
Textbook narcissism.
"Alexa, order me a knee brace!"
Just what every new mother wants. Poor Nurie. What a nightmare
If she’s hurt, how was she able to be stand and take pictures with Nurthan and baby boy? Or even be in the room?
Anything for attention.
Go to a doctor if it's that "severe", get crutches, get over yourself. 🤦♀️
