I hope this isn't a touchy subject, but did anyone see that programme on Channel 4 last night called My Fake Baby??

I only cuaght it coz was watching something before that.

Erm its was - and this is my own personal opinion - weird to say the least and just.....wrong!

but thats just what I thought.

What were those people thinking!! I just couldn't understand it, those dolls were very weird indeed. We might all be desperate for a baby.......but that's taking the biscuit. Like c'mon the old lady strapped hers into a baby seat in her car. Erm... hello...it's a doll!! And then the other girl disowned her doll because it had a tiny crack at the back of the head. Mmmm....!!!
Here's hoping all good luck in the New Year.
Baby dust to all.

What about when she had a bottle of milk in the pram and it was fabric softner cos it didnt go off.... knock knock...mcfly !!!!

well what can i say.....i thought it was the oddest thing i have ever seen. the grandmother was just complete madness, she talked to "little Harry" on a webcam all the time!!! her husband was right to walk away from her on the show as he didnt like what she was doing either.
the other woman who went to usa was just barking mad !!
they were dolls not babies !!!!
y

and in my opinion (and i hope this does not offend anyone) they need help. it cant be right to have such an obsession with a doll .... and the women who had it like her grandson ..... now that was the oddest thing i have ever heard of!! xx

I thought it was weird... didnt like it at all. Other half had to go to bed as he couldnt even watch it. I understand that everyone has different interests and way of thinking but for me it just wasnt right. I wouldnt even be able to hold one.... yuk!

I was watching it in bed and the OH turned over and went to sleep coz he couldn't watch it either. My mam was texting me and she saw it too. I think they need professional help! and what a waste of money!

I was saying, that women should give all her prams and clothes (very expensive clothes too) to a mother who needs them and needs help.

My mum-in-law to be had a realistic doll, in a moses basket, next to her bed & dressed in a new outfit, she picked it up to show me & handled it like a real baby...The odd thing is that she's made it very clear that she doesn't want grandkids & doesn't like kids full stop (after having 4 of her own)! Anyway, her husband made her get rid cos it freaked everyone out. It was sooo realistic.

I sort of understand that there must be a reason why these people have them ie an emotional bond, lack of love from elsewhere or something like that, but the woman who went to America to pick "Sophie" up, puzzled me to say the least! & £294 on an outfit - that she said would be wasted on a real child cos it would get dirty!

If only it was that easy in real life - Baby on order please, one that doesn't cry, sleeps through the night & doesn't have the fathers stubborness (tee hee)
