Well have you noticed that you can now see when there are guests reading this particular forum? Yesterday I saw 15. Just now 11. So people are reading about her because they probably feel some the same ways but are just not posting about it.
I didn’t notice! Where did you see these stats?
I think the stats are in the YTMD website. I use tapatalk app so I don't see it here.
But yeah I'm one of those who only like her channel because of the baby and family/kids content. I didn't even bother clicking her last fitness room declutter. I think what gets people subscribing to her is the family stuff. She sure made a good financial decision by having another baby because otherwise her channel is just blah.
I do find her IG stories very interesting. This morning she claimed to have made the fluffiest pancake ever. It looked like cardboard, lol.
Yellow nails. I mean, a little google search would have told her she probably has some kind of vitamin deficiency, maybe iron.
It amazes me that someone who supposedly eats so clean and cares so much for her health could know so little about her own body. Wouldn't be surprised if her new vegetarian lifestyle is causing some deficiencies. Not saying all vegetarians are deficient, but if she's not paying attention to what foods she needs to be eating that could be the problem. She just looks terribly pale and unwell all of the time.

Hahaha, I noticed her “fluffy” pancakes too, and I was wondering what the heck she considers fluffy! Those looked terrible!! Also... why did she have to have her tea cup up by her face for so long and so awkwardly during her stories... I think even she caught on to how weird it was. She’s just so fake and overly concerned about her image. Her lack of confidence is so obvious and it makes me a little bit sad for her. How can you make it that far in life living like that? I think a massive part of her doing YouTube is to fake her confidence to herself. She only allows positive comments so she can look amazing to anyone stopping by her channel, but it doesn’t take long for her true sad colours to show up. She’s looking for validation in all the wrong places. But in her defence, it probably stems from her terrible childhood, I’ve notice through my line of work, that a lot of adults who didn’t receive adequate and appropriate attention as children are crazy people pleasers and attention seekers as adults. It’s sad for them, but also a touch annoying.

I’m sure Elle is one of these guests. But you guys, she refuses to let people walk through her mind with dirty feet!
Just watched her baby clothing haul...she holds up an outfit and says “tell me your ovaries are not exploding right now.” Super sensitive to her FRIENDS and followers who are still struggling to conceive, and to those newer followers who may have found her channel via the fertility vlogs.
Also don’t understand why she spends a few minutes at the beginning talking about how they chose muted neutral colours, but everything she bought is full on pink with ruffles? Who cares if you bought pink for your baby girl, Elle! Just own it! Stop all the gaslighting.

She also selected the whole family's colour scheme from day 1. Good luck to her when the kids are older and want to make their own choices. But yeah it seems like there is way too much pink for it to be muted colour aesthetic.
Also she said her sister in law is still a Doula but she's not using her anymore? What is up with that.
If it's correct that her sister-in-law and Dan's brother live so close by, and she didn't even know her SIL is still working as a doula, it's clear that they had some kind of falling out.
Seriously though... the fact that she has a strict “neutrals only esthetic” it’s effing crazy. Who does that? I like neutrals for myself too but if my daughter wants a hot pink t-shirt I don’t say “no sweetie that doesn’t fit our family esthetic” LOL. I remember in one of the old vlogs she was complaining that kids toys were always made with disgusting bright colours (or something along those lines). She is so strange.

I think when her kids are old enough to decide what they want to wear she is going to be in for a rude awakening. I didn’t want my kid to like freaking paw patrol, we don’t watch it at home, and guess who is the world’s biggest fan? MY CHILD. ugh. And his aunt bought him a T-shirt with them on it. You can’t control a kid’s tastes!
Although... with her super controlling nature I wouldn’t be shocked if she flat out denies her kids things behind the scenes. Or doesn’t film them when they wear certain things or do certain things that don’t fit her aesthetic. It’s no wonder Dan’s family hates her, I’d be pissed to see a woman controlling my brother/nephew’s every move down to the color of their clothing.
I have a 7 yo niece that will not wear girly clothes or jeans. She lives in tract suits and sweats. My sister leaves her be because she is much more happy making her own choices and clothes are not that big of a deal. It lets her be a individual. She is a goofy kid but such a sweetheart.
It will be funny when these boys start making decisions for themselves and it doesn’t fit in with her style.
Did you notice how when she corrected herself about her sister in law being a doula it was like it was physically painful for her to admit that she was “wrong.” I guess she was surprised to find out her sister in law watches her videos and maybe was just giving that whole story about why she wasn’t using her again to shut up her critics. That backfired.
Who in the world has a family aesthetic???? Are you kidding me? Who the F cares if your child wants to wear neon clothes as long as they like it? My daughters are all about the cartoon tees and busy patterns. They’re kids. I’m sorry that might be the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard her say.
Second runner up was saying “are your ovaries screaming” to an audience of women struggling with infertility?

Which video does she say her SiL isn’t a doula anymore?
I don’t want to have to watch them all to find it lol.
Also, can we all take a moment and thank the powers that be that she finally got the fucking hint about her bloody power brows that she was sporting for the longest time?! She could still do with a tidy up of the stray hairs around her brows, but thank god she’s not dying them practically black! That was the most horrendous unnatural look I have ever seen. I wonder what finally made her change that. She got so much flack in the comments for SO LONG about that, I’m surprised she didn’t change sooner. I’m actually surprised that she even sported that look. Hat goes to show how crap her taste is
The latest pregnancy update and girl clothing haul. It’s at the very beginning.
Omg the brows. Do you guys know I couldn’t watch her in the beginning because I found her hard to look at? I was like “does she know they look like this? Is this on purpose?” I kept seeing her pop up in my feed because I followed the other Canadian bloggers/vloggers. I believe once I heard her say or read in the comments that she was going for the game of thrones look?
Anyways I eventually started giving her a chance when she realeased those my story videos.
Lol so I watched the clothing haul. Well up til the mid video commercial because who has time for that. Call me crazy but I just bought clothes for my kid. I didn’t plan out the exact number I needed of each style/piece. I sure as hell didn’t plan a color scheme. They are babies. Nobody cares what they wear and they sleep the first 3 months anyway. Talk about a control freak.
I definitely have an “aesthetic” if you will for my daughter. I think she looks cute in pastels and muted tones, but she’s 7 months old. The second she shows any desire to pick out her own clothes, you better believe I’m going to throw out my own opinions and let her get what she wants.
It’s weird that she thinks dressing a girl is going to be SOOOO much different than dressing a boy. I can gaurentee she’ll hate all those dresses and rompers. My daughter was born in July, and all I put her in were plain onesies and sometimes pants, when it wasn’t 500000 degrees. I hated those “outfit” style things. I used them because I wanted to get use out of everything we had.. but I always prayed she shat through it so I could change her lol
Her fucking camel toe and saddle bag hips are out in full force in that video. *gag*
I cannot believe her lack of shame in showing off that camel toe. She frequently leaves the house in skin tight, up the hoohah leggings and short shirts. No, mama.
Lest we not forget her favorite camel toe onesie/pj thing that she couldn’t stop raving about.

SO AWKWARD!
There was a previous video where Elle said she was sad not to have her SIL as a doula since she was not doing it any more....but now she is??? This seems plainly like Elle was caught in a lie and just tried to gloss over it.
I also remember during her infertility journey she had mentioned how she and Dan were okay with IUI but not i.e. IVF. At the time she did not go further as to why but suggested maybe she would address it another time. She didn't. When someone followed up and asked in the comments she plainly said the reason was financial. I call bs. I think that was just easier than exposing any of HER real views in case her audience had different views.
This is what I have come to like least about Elle: she is not authentic and genuine despite claiming otherwise. She is not vulnerable because she cannot handle all that comes with being open and truly honest. I prefer REAL people who do not hide behind a carefully calculated and curated facade.
Yay, today's video is an ad for life insurance from RBC!!!
I guess RBC is making its rounds among youtubers... I do not mind sponsored content; but I wish it had to be indicated upfront in the title i.e., "ad"... otherwise I stop watching the video cause I find this type of marketing repulsive. Don't try to pretend I am not watching a commercial when I watch this nonesense disguised as a 'chat'.

It is very repulsive and very misleading. I watched half of it and 1. There was no cleaning. 2. It was barely a chat and more of a preachy ad. At least make a personal story to it. The only personal segway to the ad was mentioning that her and her sister was chatting about insurance the last time they were over.
I've seen lots of sponsored content on YouTube that was done well where the content was still entertaining and the ad made sense with the topic/theme of the video.
I find all of Elle's sponsored videos/post are poorly done. Maybe because her content is lacking in the first place.
