Comment from MIL the other day because DS (12 weeks) gets quite easily overstimulated and when this happens need to be swaddled and put down for a nap. Cue "he's a really difficult baby"
He isn't! He does cry but rarely inconsolably and when he has fits of the grumps it's usually very obvious what the issue is and easily rectified.
AIBU to dislike the term "difficult" baby? Seems designed to make mums feel like crap. And "easy" baby for that matter. I'm not sure even the most angelic baby could be described as "easy" per se.
