Mum whose daughter nearly drowned hits back at criticism
Instagram / @MeOhMy

A mum who wrote about her daughter almost drowning has hit back at critics who said she should've been more careful.

Siobhan Rennie told how she turned her back on her children in the bath and came back to find her daughter flailing under water.

Writing on her blog, MeOhMy, Siobhan said she went to hang up one of her husband's shirts while her two children, Harry and Aoife, were in the bath.

She returned to find Aoife under the water.

'I grabbed her so fast out of that bath and held her to me ... she was coughing and screaming. It could have been much worse. Aoife is fine.'

Siobhan revealed she was a perfectionist who couldn't relax until things were sorted away and that's what led her to put the shirt away.

She wrote about what happened to warn other mothers but says she's been shocked by the bullying she's received.

She pointed out that everyone makes mistakes but she was 'brave enough to admit it'.

BLOGGED: 'Stop judging already'... // In this past week, I've had a few groups of mums judging me. If you follow me on Snap or Stories, you'll know about the women who rolled their eyes and stared as I dragged my tantruming 2 year old across the sand at the beach the other day, with my other 11 month old babe on my hip, and did nothing to sympathise or help... And after my bath incident post getting coverage all over the place, women trolled me online saying I was a HORRIBLE mother... I know it's part of this blogging gig. I accepted that a long time ago. But no mum deserves judgement. Here's the news flash - yes, we've all had one thought or another about a fellow mum or about what they're doing. We might talk about it to our husband or partner. But that's where it should end. Keep your judgement private, NOT PUBLIC... I'm just doing my best, like we all are. Support each other. It starts with us.
