A woman who says other mothers shame her for her naturally 'good looks' and 'figure' believes they are just 'jealous' of her.
Amee Gleadell, a caterer from Lincoln, says she has always taken pride in her appearance and takes time to pick out a nice dress and jewellery every day.
She is mother to her 15-month-old son Arthane but claims other parents judge her at baby groups and aren't friendly towards her.
But Amee, 35, doesn't let it damage her confidence and believes they are just 'jealous' that she doesn't need to get 'lip fillers' and her 'hair done' to look nice.
She wants to stop judgement on other women's appearances and said: 'I look after myself.

'I'm very natural with it. I don't wear much make-up. I'm a natural mum, I have a good figure, I wear dresses and sandals. It makes me feel better.
'Mums judge you at baby classes. I get looked at - I think it is jealousy. People are judging me because I haven't got my lip fillers in or had my hair all done.'
After giving birth to Arthane, Amee felt it was important to be in good shape for her son.
She said: 'I wanted to chase him round the park. A lot of mums sit with their coffee and cake.
'I thought, "I'm not going to be that mum".'
Amee hits the gym regularly, goes swimming with Arthane and does yoga every morning to keep fit.
She added: 'I eat really well and I usually have glittery toes.'
Amee says she never goes out in scruffy clothes - something she thinks other mums judge her for.

She said: 'I don't go out in trackies. I don't know why people don't want to look good or why they can't be bothered.
'But you don't know what is going on in other people's lives. We should just be helping each other.'
Amee says she is also judged for breastfeeding her son in public - including on the bus, on a bike, and at the arcade - and at work.
She manages to balance motherhood with her busy work life running a catering business on wheels. It often means she is cooking while her son sits on her hip.
She said: 'I take my child to work with me. I breastfeed him there. Pervy men stare at you. Other mums judge you.
'Other people are like "she is breastfeeding and cooking" and judging me for that.

'I'm in control, he's not going to burn. It's natural - I shouldn't have to cover up.'
Amee said her husband, Stephen Cefai, 28, a cartoonist, has always loved her 'bubbly' personality.
She said: 'I'm enjoying myself. I want to live forever - I know you can't but I have got this zest for life.
'I want to be an amazing mum and partner.'
