I am genuinely asking here. I went to see a friend the other day who has a week old baby. Her dh said (very politely) "would you mind washing your hands before you pick him up?"
I wasn't offended, just confused as I have never been asked to do this before nor would it have crossed my mind to ask people to wash their hands before handling my son!
My hands were clean by the way, in case you think they were caked in mud or something!!
Is this a bit weird? Or am I??!
