DP thinks I was, and to quote him "in the best way possible you are crazy woman."
Today DS2 (11 weeks) and I stopped off at Costa today whilst doing a spot of shopping, it got quite busy and as I was taking up a 4 seater table (comfy to feed and space for the pram), I asked a lady if she would like to sit with me. In a casual way obviously not a weird way.
The lady accepted. Obviously it would of been awkward to sit there in silence so conversation started. She asked about DS2 (name age etc), which led to speaking about DS1, and she then revealed she had been TTC for a while. I mentioned our own fertility problems and eventually she asked if she could hold DS2.
I said yes, she held him, jigged him a bit, he did his typically stoic, i shall not grin at strangers stare, she complimented his obvious beauty and handed him back, finished her drink and left.
Now given that she didn't have two heads, nor suck his blood, and I didn't leave him, where is the harm?
I wouldn't hand him over to just anyone of course, but she seemed nice! I suppose she could of attempted to run off with him but its not exactly the norm is it? Prowling in costa... WIBU?
