"Oh whats that evil women doing to you?"

This is a brilliantly funny thread! I've had you'll have to stop her feeding so often, i'm bf on demand so sod off. One person said are you coping ok, what am I meant to say as I see them infrequently. People ask me when she was 4 weeks old why couldn't I attend a party in the evening? Still the mil complimented me on how well I was losing weight and what a good job I was doing with her, so not all bad

i would of took my child off her and give her a slap ( i mean the relative b4 any 1 slates me
dont now how you kept your cool x

OMG that is shocking!!

i think the worst comment i have had to put up with recently was up my mil house when one of their relations turns up, holds my baby girl and starts swearing, i mention i dont like swearing around her and would not let her swear when she is older and she turns to my baby and says "say f***off mummy dont be silly" how bad is that!

I get the 'is he good?' too!
Also 'isn't he sleeping through yet?' (at 4 weeks old!)
Your giving him too much milk
Your not feeding him enough
He's crying in the evening so he must have colic!
Don't let him push his legs on you it will make him bow legged
From my DP -
I'm tired
me - yeah me too
DP - why are you tired you don't do anything all day! Your not going to work like I am (he is a taxi driver and can choose when to work! - if at all half the time!!)
Oh no I do all the feeding and changing bums on our 7week old and 2 year old, I cook and clean and then he moans that I don't want sex! FFS I'm knackered!
DP - I've worked all weekend I need a lie in
where's my bloody lie in! He gets one if he is at work and to recover afterwards too!
Others are -
oooh why you had them so close together?
You shouldn't have anymore its too much for you! WTF?!!!!!!!
You haven't lost the weight as quickly this time
You look pale/ill/tired/depressed etc
Are you coping?
I could go on all night! lol

My sil's partner asked me if my labour went ok? Well, he's here isn't he & I'm still in one piece, so wtf do you think....
Then, while patting his own nether reigions, he asked me if everything was back to normal...... What the hell has that got to do with you???? I don't wish to discuss the goings on of my birth canal with most people. Least of all you, you fecking oddball!!

Two things that were said to me in the first week after having my lo
1. Whilst hubby was pushing lo around another shop, I was buying some more nursing bars from M & S and the assistant said "Have you got long to go?" and I replied "Erm, I had him last Friday", she laughed and tapped my jelly belly grrrrrrrr
2. First time seeing step-daughter after giving birth "I thought you'd be thinner" thanks, yeah thanks.

my mum, bless her cottons told me how good my dd was and what a lovely baby she was, then added ' you do need to be getting her on to 4 hour feeds though' - i was like, erm..why? shes bf and now started going 2/3 hours during day, up to 5 at night - how am i gonna make her go 4 hours? my ds never went 4 hours til he was on bottles at 5 months!!
