Touching my baby!!! I am sick and tired of people stopping and touching her hands and her face! Then when I politely ask not to, I am either ignored or given a dirty look. Help..what would you do?
PS Someone touched her hand last week, I didnt have any wet ones handy and now she is sick :(

oooh! I glare. I throw fits, seriously. "WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?" I asked one woman loudly. Seriously. You touch my baby, you die.
I think I'm alot meaner than normal, because he hasn't gotten his shots yet (they couldn't fit him in until Oct 4th!!) and I'm already skittish taking him out.
I'll usually explain if I feel it's necessary, although I'm not really one for apologizing or explaining. If someone reaches out to touch him, I'll step back. It's my baby and no one on earth is going to hurt him.
I'm very mama bear these days, lol.
I swear people have SOME NERVE!!!
Do you have a license to carry a concealed weapon? Or perhaps you own a giant bubble you can put her stroller in? I'm not being snide, I'd seriously consider both of those options, lol. I hate it when people do that!! When my oldest was a baby my mom had a boyfriend that wanted to smother her with kisses. OMGosh, it drove me nuts!! I didn't know this guy from adam, really, and he was putting his mouth all over her! I ended up kicking him out of my house, long story, I'll spare you. He's now my step-father, yipee.
I say just keep doing what your doing and warn them if they get too close. People really should be more considerate.

Some people have zero common sense...ugh! Im going to pull her away for sure next time, I especially hate when the checkout person at the store tries to touch her..grr!!!
Tell people your baby just had some serious diarrhea and you would hate for anyone else to get sick.
I hear you. In fact besides my own kids I think other people's baby drool and slime is icky. I hope that doesn't sound terrible!
And really, as an adult, how would one feel to have someone come over to them and grab their cheek? Or play with their hair?
: )

I know where you're coming from. I've had a couple strangers touch Charlie and I was shocked! I ask myself if I ever did that to babies before I had him? I really don't think so, it's such a bad idea!
I don't even like making small talk sometimes, like what are complete strangers going to do with their judgements on my baby's current stats???
