Is a bit of a nutter if she thinks he will actually keep it and use it? Hmm

Won't he be a bit big for it!!??

I think he might do because of the co-pilot message on it. If it had just been a more standard one then I think you'd have a point. But it's unusual and relevant to him.

Why wouldn't he? If / when they have children they'll find even Royal babies are sick,drooly and pooey at inconvenient moments. They may find themselves grateful for that baby gro

McChristmas I don't think so, woman on the telly said that because he said he would use it maybe he would take the hint and do it soon... Or something like that.

The message on it said "daddy's little co-pilot"

I am probably being a total arse but I thought it was really awful.
Whatif they are having problems conceiving ?
I was also really superstitious. I would of course be polite but being given a baby gift would bother me unless I actually, you know, had a baby.

I fully accept thati am a bit of a nutter about this.

What a weird thing to give then lol

That's actually a really sweet message on it.

Pag I completely agree with you, I thought it a bit odd and rude to give a baby gift to someone who had no children and wasn't expecting.



I just wanted to give her baby a hat! :o

I agree with pag

It's hard enough to be a normal married couple with no children and putting up with the whispers and stares and questions and comments and head tilts. What if they are having trouble?

Apparently he said he was having it and gave it to his aide.

SchroSawMummyRidingSantaClaus · 28/11/2012 18:53

That would actually be a right kick in the teeth if they were having problems, wouldn't it? :(

JustFab I keep catching the same bit in the news everytime and haven't heard these bits.

She looked too wrapped up in excitement to be thinking about that.

Soverylucky do they really have a choice about whether or not they want children?

I'm with Pag - I don't like baby gifts before birth let alone before conceiving. There's something about it that puts real pressure on the couple. If someone gave me a babygro I'd be really put out.

Pag is right, and this sort of behaviour is EXACTLY the kind of thing that would cause a mass outbreak of foaming at the mouth if a MIL did it to one of us.

Beyond presumptious and irritatating, and not funny.

Apart from all the possibilities, imagine how embarassing that would be! Shock
