Making faces at baby

[blondieblonde]

AIBU to scowl at people walking behind me while I pram our baby around making faces and waving at her, just as I am trying to get her to sleep?

Yeah.

People are following you around in order to make faces and wave at your baby?

I feel your pain, once a lady stopped me to ask if I was walking round and round the park to get the baby's sleep. When I replied yes she proceeded to TICKLE him!

I'm sure they're real people

Not unreasonable at all. I suggest making a sign to hang on the hood declaring 'DON'T LOOK AT MY BABY', so this doesn't happen again in public places.

Sorry. If a baby is looking over a parent's shoulder I tend to smile or pull a silly face at it. Clearly I am a very U person.

Strangers SMILED at your baby? You should fucking shoot them, the bastards, how dare they?

The things people on MN will whine about, its a never ending list.

OP is clearly being light hearted.

Some people on here act like they've got their tampons in sideways.

This drives me mad too, or when they finally drop off a jogger with headphones in will yell morning

My baby scowls at strangers herself.

That's ma girl!

The utter cunts.

This is lighthearted? It's not even funny!

Some horrible people about these days.

Fucking smiling? Arseholes.

YABU, obviously.

"Pram" is a verb?

Micah that made me so I decided it must be a typo, and she meant push. Otherwise my head would have exploded, making such a mess.

Is this a stealth 'my baby is soo cute strangers love her' boast?

So you rather they look stone faced at your baby. .

Them fucking smiling bastards. Unfortunately, they probably don't know that you are trying to get your baby to sleep. Maybe the inconsiderate twats aren't mindreaders.

From MN I've learned that mothers of small babies do not want strangers to pat them on their heads or god forbid stroke their cheeks. I will now add smiling to the list.

People that smile are cunts. What is there to be happy about? Ever. Fuckers.

We're only trying to help....

YANBU. You need to cultivate a steely glare, like mine I am nevertheless often bothered at a critical eyes-dropping moment, but usually for directions, my baby's obviously not as cute as yours, OP

I pram
I will be pramming
I prammed

The last time I peeked in a lady's pram there was a dog in it. I'm still shocked now. I didn't know people did this.

Was the owner trying to pram her dog to sleep though ilost. I hope you didn't smile at it.
