Jill’s most recent post. (Again, I’m not including the picture)

 

Kaylee is such a good mom....just like Nurie.  I watch them mother their children with a passion, and my heart fills to overflowing!  😊🥰  Kaylee is faithfully pumping breastmilk and  (other than some IV fluids), that is what they are exclusively feeding Gideon in the NICU.  ❤️  Kaylee or Jonathan often adminstor his feedings of breastmilk (seen below), every 3 hours.  Gideon is thriving and doing the best he can for being 8 weeks early!  God is SO Good and His natural ways work!  🙏 🙌

Being in a NICU is “natural” Jill?

As usual she gives zero credit for specialized medical treatment.  Only thanking God is not enough Jill!

Nah, she's accustomed to PREACHERS. Ministers are too highly educated to be her type. 

[xwordfanatik]

Of course, Jill wouldn't dream of bringing the staff that are helping her grandson, a box of candy or a store-bought fruit tray (I get why homemade anything by the Rodlets would be thrown away.)  Even thanking them for their care and kindness wouldn't occur to that beyond selfish woman.  

FFS, bringing in Kaylee's siblings and letting them paw that tiny baby is so gross!  All those germs!  Jill and Hunk should be wearing sterile gloves if they must touch, just like the staff does.  I doubt they even used hand sanitizer.

[oliviabenson]

Jill posts so much personal information it’s not even funny. Wow.  Jill and Dave are unemployed so they are not leaving Kaylee alone until she and baby go home.

And then even more bothering them.

 

[jacourt]

‘His natural ways work best’

iv fluids, cpap machines any other technology that are being used to help Gideon are not natural. Again judging people who for whatever reason do not breastfeed. Look at the big picture Jill. Technology is saving that little guy. 

[Turquoise]

Poor (and Kaylee) can’t even have a post about her new son without the name of Saint Nurie being invoked.

[GeeGolly]

And so the fuck what if Gideon was drinking formula too? Ugh, cranky and JillR aren't a good mix. So I'm just going to openly kick the dog - Sit down and shut up JillR. And go fuck yourself.

[sixlets]

I took Jill's (incredibly stupid) wording of 'His natural ways' to mean that Kaylee is pumping and GiddyUp2™️is being breastfed as opposed to formula fed.  Then again, Jill's the resident idiot, and she refuses to accept modern medicine is what is keeping him alive.

That’s exactly what she was implying, never considering the feelings of mothers who can’t breastfeed.  She’s a POS.

[CalicoKitty]

Feeding pumped breast milk is a common practice in a NICU.  It is nothing noteworthy.  Certainly nothing to post about.  She is such a braggart.  (I hope Not Nurie is getting enough good food to eat)

The NICU also has several specialized formulas to use as needed.  And regular formula.  How other babies are fed is absolutely none of Jill's business. Other babies are not her business.  She has no business even being there.  That poor staff.  Poor Not Nurie.  Poor Gideon.  Jill causes stress wherever she goes.

Yeah. Even after Kaylee, Jill, and Jonathan, and Hulk rushed to the hospital at the first sign of trouble (as they should have!), Jill won't give credit to the doctors, nurses, and technicians who worked hard and saved two lives.  

Oh, precious Nurie gets a shout out. Who's surprised?

Neither daughter learned anything about being a good mother from Jill, that's for sure. Jill can't even manage to pass as a decent human being much less as a good mother.

[satrunrose]

The way that people can talk out of both sides of their mouths without seeming aware of it will never cease to amaze me. Jill would have had the chance to take grinning selfies in front of both her mother and grandson's coffins in the past year if not for medical intervention and she makes major bank (or so she claims) selling a drink that's a colour that does not exist in nature, but Nurie (oh, and Kaylee) breast feeding is sooo much better/natural than you heathen, working, formula-using, sluttish women.  

If natural is so important, BME, wash your face, put the phone down, plant an actual food garden in your plant graveyard, ditch the plexus and, as always, feed your damn kids.

Disclaimer: Not judging make-up use or any lack of gardening skills, just love calling Jill out on the hypocrisy. 

[Salacious Kitty]

I'm still pissed at Jill pumping herself up by bragging about what good mothers Kaylee and Nurie are. And why mention Nurie at all? Her birth experiences do not compare to what Kaylee is soldiering through. 

I do think Nurie her mother's daughter; her mothering is practically non-existent. Kaylee's a trooper now, but will this continue after they bring Gideon home? Time will tell if Kaylee can forge her own path, but I don't think it likely.

[oliviabenson]

Don’t forget Jill getting medical care for her miscarriage this year… Maybe with no treatment Mahmo would have died. 
 

Jill is full of poo.

A nyc rat makes a better mom than Jill.

Kaylee can't forget her own path to motherhood because BME will literally not let her do so!

Today’s post by Jill which included video of this:

 

The power of Christian music to a baby. 😮 Gideon had been crying for awhile during his assessment and diaper change with the nurse.  Look how he STOPPED once we started to sing to him!  His whole demeanor changed!  💙❤️

There’s now a picture of Timothy visiting.

If she is still in the  hospital, she is probably getting more food than she ever got before.   Kinda like how Phillip filled out when he went to college.

Kid probably went in to protective mode, if I lay quiet and don't move, maybe the scary thing will go away and not eat me.

[satrunrose]

Poor kid probably heard a lot of Rod caterwauling in-utero. He may not know good music if it pinched his cute little cheek.

Yes, music can be soothing but only Christian music? I'm not saying to play death metal but a kid's song or a lullaby? What an idiot. 

[oliviabenson]

Kaylee is probably drinking plexus already. That’s what Nurie got after giving birth.

[Trillium]

Yes Jillpm, it was the CHRISTIAN music that stopped the crying. Not the nurse changing him and making him more comfortable. Fuck off with that, Jill. He’s not doing better than a heathen baby who wasn’t placed under a Bible would have been. Medical science is what is helping him. 
 

Even if he’s in a private room, the endless sting of family and singing has to be getting on the staff’s nerves. They are trying to do their jobs and have to either push through the crowd of Rods or wait until the wailing is over. I’m sure the staff will be talking about this circus for years.

AndKaylee can order from the hospital menu any time she wants. When in her life under the eyes of Screeching Shrew and Big Dip Up did Kaylee get to eat when she was hungry or just craved a snack? 

Jill and David are lazy, horrible parents who let their children go hungry while they are off making a new ones they have no intentions of nurturing either. 

Jill is in no position to talk about parenting. If she had any decency (ha, ha), she'd take her germy bible and crawl out of the hospital in embarrassment.

I originally didn’t listen to the video of the singing to the little guy, then  I punished myself. I thought I had already heard the worst of Jill, but her singing in her baby voice tops any I’ve heard previously.

[oliviabenson]

Someone said Jill’s singing is like a whale giving birth. Now I can’t stop laughing.

Hey, don't pick on whales. 😀

I really hate Jill's constant pokes at others in her posts.  She implies that the nurses doing the work of keeping Gideon comfortable and alive are not doing a good job because they are not singing CHRISTIAN songs to him.  She has taken other swipes at the nursing staff particularly when her sister was in the ICU.  I imagine the staff has plenty to talk about in the break room with this circus in town.

Oh, and if his natural ways are best, why doesn't Jill unhook all those IV's and such and take Gideon home?  Such a hypocrite.

I don’t think Kaylee herself is a patient in the new hospital, but I hope she is able to eat to her heart’s content .

I don’t know about NICU parents at that hospital.  At our local hospitals, family members of patients can order from the same menu patients can….for a very reasonable fee paid by credit or debit card. Or there are hospital cafeterias ( back open after covid). Where they can go eat, relax, recharge, make phone calls, etc.

For the same reason Covid deniers trash science, prescription drugs, and modern medical care, but the minute Covid fills their lungs with fluid and they can't breathe, off to the hospital they go. 

Rules, even God's rules, are strictly for other people, especially the people they  don't like. The minute these phonies are in danger, they fold like cheap umbrellas. 

Of course, once things start looking up, they're back to their sanctimonious ways.

So Jill has been there every day? Unbelievable; talk about wearing out your welcome. (if they've ever been welcome) Even if they're in a private room, the chaos they must bring when in the common areas would make me scream if I were a parent of a child in NICU. Picture the amount of time it must take for all Rod visitors to wash hands, sanitize phones etc. 

And don't even get me started on the praying vs medical care!!!

Gideon was born days ago. Why is Not Nurie still in the hospital? Did the birth go well for her? The Rodrigues facebook, instagram, etc is private. I can't view any of these videos mentioned above here.

Facebook posts are public. You should be able to see them. 

They transferred to Children's Hospital in Akron on Friday, so Kaylee was released from the hospital in WV then.

Jill hashtagged the post NEW Christian friends. I bet a meal was involved. 

[crazy8s]

May 3rd Jill posted the family visit to PA to grift and visit the military museum. Seems like it was on the way home from that stop the RV had the breakdown.

I seem to recall the RV breakdown was beginning of May, because Phillip was still in bible college and he missed chapel the day someone needed to take David to the stranded RV. Phillip finished school the first week of May.
