It's been a full a full two weeks since Jill Duggar gave birth to her first child, so naturally, the time has come for the Guild of Fretful Mothers to take to social media so that they can eviscerate her for her every mistake.
The criticism kicked off in epic fashion today in the Facebook comments section for the below photo:
As you can see, Jill is carrying baby Izzy in a sling. Apparently, she's doing so in an improper fashion that's been known to result in hip injuries, suffocation, war, famine, and at least six separate Biblical plagues.
Okay, we may be exaggerating, but seriously, based on the reaction to that photo, you would think Jill posted a photo of something truly scandalous, like two non-married people kissing on the lips, or something.
“You would think after having 82 siblings and being a midwife she would know how to use a sling properly,” wrote sassy commenter.
Another expert in the art and science of sling-ology went even more in-depth:
“She needs to raise that sling up about a foot, he’s supposed to be laying across her chest, not her waist. The problem is that the baby is horizontal in the carrier, potentially collapsing its airway – like laying in a hammock.
"The baby is also far too low in the carrier, which is bad for her c-sec incision and dangerous for baby (too low=too dangerous for mama to monitor breathing.
Yes, in related news, Jill Duggar had a c-section, which is also something people are obsessing over for some reason.
While she has promised to deliver her next baby vaginally (seriously), Jill has yet to make any promises regarding how she'll carry the kid once it's born, so don't be surprised to see her dragging it around by its ankle or tossing it to strangers and yelling, "Catch!"
We kid, of course. Watch 19 Kids and Counting online to see Jill accrue decades of experience caring for young tykes. There are perks to having 18 siblings.
