Tammy Hembrow has been slammed for posting a video of herself herself holding her newborn daughter in a ‘scrunch’ position.
The fitness influencer, 28, shared a video montage to Instagram on Tuesday showing her daughter Posy, two months, stiffening up her body as Tammy lifted her into the air.
Posy was seen arching her back and curling up her arms and feet every time Tammy lifted her from her cot.

Captioning the seemingly innocent video, mother-of-three Tammy wrote: ‘I never want it to end [pleading face emojis]’
Some followers however found the clip worrying as they believed the glamour model wasn’t supporting her daughter’s head well enough.
‘HOLD YOUR BABY’S HEAD. I’m having a heart attack looking at this’, one follower commented, while someone else added: ‘Her head… I’m scared’.

‘Instead of keep looking into your phone for content, how about concentrate on holding her poor head,’ another raged.
However, there were plenty of fans who rushed to Tammy’s defence.
One supporter commented: ‘People keep talking about how she’s not supporting her baby’s head. She clearly is. As if she hasn’t had two babies already. I’m sure she knows how to hold her baby the way she wants’.

Another agreed: ‘Actually she is supporting that baby’s head just fun/ Y’all are the ones who don’t know how to. Her fingers are where they need to be.’
Tammy has not responded to the backlash, instead maintaining a dignified silence.
It comes after Tammy hit back at trolls who called her parenting skills into question in June over an Instagram video of Posy sitting in a harness strapped to her chest.
Critics immediately flooded her post with unsolicited advice on how to use the carrier, with one saying the baby should be sitting higher on her chest.
‘Baby needs to be higher up! Closer to your chin mama,’ one person commented..
Tammy took this initial feedback well – writing ‘baby is fine lol’ – but soon became upset after more trolls piled on.
‘The rule is always close enough to kiss! Definitely needs to have a look at baby wearing correctly!’ one follower wrote.
‘My carrier was like this for about two minutes. I had just loosened it about to take it off so relax,’ Tammy wrote.

‘Also firstly, this is my third child. Secondly, I will carry my baby however I see fit. Thirdly, she was very snug and cosy and actually loved this position.’
She concluded: ‘People need to be less quick to jump on mothers’ backs about what is CORRECT.’
Tammy welcomed Posy with her fiancé Matt Poole in July. She shares her other two children, daughter Saskia, five and son Wolf, six, with ex-fiancé Reece Hawkins.
