.Why is everything with Jen so damn dramatic? She had sooooo much difficulty birthing CC; she had to have extra special monitoring before Donny’s birth. Of course her worthless husband has health issues and can’t carry their two year old, so Jinny just couldn’t bear to have another MAJOR surgery**. And that’s only the first few minutes of the video posted above. I just can’t watch to see what other great suffering she endured.
She sure was annoyed at baby Donny. How dare he grunt and fuss—she HAS to make the video NOW.
**I’m not minimizing c-section births—I had two myself and they weren’t fun. It’s just how special she thinks she is about EVERYTHING. And of course she’s super-duper special because she had a VBAC.
CC was breech, hence the C-section. No difficulty birthing, she didn't try to birth, it was a planned Section. -
.
The workouts are viewable again. . -
.
Yep…noticed this last night. Same with BBBrooke. Glitch?
Just yoga and med while traveling. She must have playlists now for hiking.. -
.
Please direct me to this Monday update, 😊 TIA . -
.
its laughable that she thinks the kids will always have contact with her the older they get
they are forced to at this point and in a few years cc can tell chinny to shove it in her ample ass and not have to go over there which in turn could make donnie act out cuz she is his security blanket and she won't know what the fuck to do with him alone so she will let him go back to his real house with his sister and family and poof she will be gone like the wind. she only cares about the money anyhow
I really hope don puts them in therapy now to let them talk about their feelings and get it out instead of bottling it up the entire childhood and then being a real mess. they can have someone with a license tell them they aren't wrong about how they feel about their babysitter treatment of them
im sure Winnie was the same space to distract her when talking to the kids not that safety blankets gone watch her ravel now. -
.
Oof, that video. She claims she has friends, and then in the next breath says that it’s a dream of hers to have local friends. And then she blames it on working from home.
Except here we are now, she’s never home unless she’s on the Peloton or babysitting, and she still has zero friends.
RE: meeting people at Go Wild and making connections/friendships: “There’s definite movement there and it makes my heart sing.”
It is truly a talent that she has, thousands and thousands of followers, endless time and money, literally incapable of making friends because her real life personality is so repulsive.. -
.
To be fair, people at go wild weren't going to become her besties - from two states away, some with incemtive to boost their numbers with Jen, since she was from a bigger niche and had more followers... . -
.
I just rewatched the spring 2019 Q&A. She appeared happy with no resentment toward Don. She talked about him openly. Used his name and shared playful anecdotes about him. When was the noticeable “shift” in her demeanor? Were they already contemplating divorce when she filmed this?
I was surprised she mentioned wanting to get involved in her children’s school. Has she ever mentioned volunteering there?. -
.I am still stuck back in pre-divorce analysis (aka "What is the sound of one hand clapping"? ) And, I was watching the vbac video. I feel bad shaming mothers of newborns--even Jen-- but, why isn't she supporting Donny's head? Is that normal?
www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ATKvkcRVFs
I watched this one recently too! My jaw dropped when she has him laying flat after feeding, says he’s gassy, then minimizes the pain he’s feeling. Complaining that he’s fussy and cranky the entire time. While wearing the $4k Victoria pendant Don recently gave her.
Just the absolute worst.. -

I think the shift had already happened and she was either delusional about the state of her marriage or outright lying. She had chosen herself and was satisfied. Nevermind what Don wanted/needed.

WhereDoesDaddySleep this is the best timeline! You have done a great job. I am just reading it for the first time. My favorite oddity is Jen buying hoodies, multiple times. LOL. Like this woman is odd. . -
.
Not caught up but in case it hasn’t yet been reported, peloton activity is back in service. She’s wogging in the app with her garmin watch right now. 🕵️♀️ . -

AcademyAwardWinningActress check out this tension over the Jack Daniels. Don is so over her mocking him, and rolling her eyes to the Jenions. Around 1 min 30 sec Such a bitch.
. -

That is a great timeline! It really shows how miserable she was since having children. She may or may not wanted to get rid of Don...I don't think she did, she just wanted him to change to put her first in everything. She wanted to still be catered to. That bit in Nov of 2018 suggesting to DOn they sell everything and travel is really eye opening as to how much she hated her life and wanted to escape...and WELL, here we are in the rumpus car and murder shacks every other weekend just some 5 years later! . -

Jen, and people like her, will always say they want to do something and in the next breath, they will find a million reasons why they can’t do it. People like that drive me nuts as they are the perpetual victims. They don’t want to put any effort into anything, they just want it to happen.
Many here have said it before, if Jen got involved in her kids’ lives like a normal person would, she could meet other parents, especially SAHPs and have a circle of friends that way. This is one of myriad of ways someone who genuinely was making an effort to socialise more, would try out.
Ultimately, Jen is extremely unlikeable and selfish and this is why she can’t make friends.
