to think this woman was bloody rude?

[Objection]

I'm currently looking after a gorgeous 6 month old baby whilst his mum is away.
Unfortunately, I came to work this morning to find his grandmother looking knackered and him crying and crying as he hadn't slept all night. I checked him over and suspected he had scarlet fever so we both went to the GP.

We were sat in the waiting room with two other ladies, baby a lot calmer and having a look about from my lap. One of the women was glaring at us the whole time, not sure why as we weren't making any noise.
Anyway, all of a sudden he was very sick, most of it went on me but some splashed the carpet and chair.
The other lady jumped up to get some towels from reception but glarey just continued to frown and began tutting.
I'm now holding a frightened baby, we're both COVERED in vomit and the grandmother is flapping around us trying to clear up with me helping as best I can with one hand.
This woman then says stroppily: "well aren't you going to tell reception so they can clear up your mess??"

She was called in for her appointment before I could reply, fortunately.

AIBU to be astounded that someone could be so rude and unsympathetic?

(Baby does have scarlet fever, as it turns out but he's getting better)

You Did nothing wrong. You took an ill baby to see a Doctor, if she didn't want to be in vicinaty of unwell people she could have moved To somewhere less populared, maybe Antarctica, otherwise she needs get accustomed to sharing público services.

I was once very pleased that DD2 vomited. I was alone with the DDs while DH was overseas and had To get a prescripción that my neighbour very kindly wrote for her. So we were in the pharmacy, DD2 clearly not on top form and dressed in PJs - - she was 6, I didn't exactly look like I'd just stepped off a cat walk when in came a 30 something in a suit who started glaring at me. Other customers clocked him grinned when DD puked all over the floor.

One of the two staff came round To clean, which delayed said suit even longer.

Most people are reasonable when DCs are ill, we both managed To find the idiota

Hope your friend's baby is better very soon OP

^^This is very true.
