Laura questioned this unsolicited advice, and shared a screenshot of their exchange on Instagram.
‘Holding her back from what? Using a cup? Let the kid live, she has her entire life to be a grumpy old cow messaging strangers on Insta,’ she responded.
The woman continued to take Laura to task for bottle-feeding Marlie-Mae.

‘Using a cup and learning these behaviour is totally [inappropriate],’ she added.

Laura went on to explain that Marlie-Mae is two and a happy and healthy little girl.
