I’m a mum-of-8 at 29, I shower with them instead of giving them a bath to save time & they go to sleep whenever

A MUM-OF-EIGHT has gone viral after revealing how she parented all of her babies, including having no set bedtime.

When it comes to parenting, most just stick to whatever works for them – and so does this TikTok-famous mum, Heather (@forevaheatha).


Heather, whose clips have amassed her a notable fanbase of more than 1.7 million followers on social media, regularly shares little snippets of her big ''blended'' family of ten.

In one such clip, which has taken the internet by storm, with almost 154,000 views in a week's time, the mum said there were a few parenting habits she followed that a lot of people wouldn't necessarily agree with.

''Not recommending anything to anybody…. Just how I parent,'' the mum added in the caption.

According to Heather, she used to share a bed and sleep together with all of her babies.

She did add that this was done in a safe way.

When it comes to sleeping, most mums and dads will give their child a set bedtime – but not Heatha.

Her kids, she revealed, can stay up as late as they wish.

But with one condition – she has to be awake as well.
