Cruel unsolicited advice?

[Canthelpmyface]

When my baby was 4 days old, a midwife "advised" me to never leave the house without makeup again.

Context- my newborn was rushed to A&E the evening before so had spent all night in hospital with no sleep and had to drive to a different hospital the following morning for the heel prick test. The midwife said 'can I offer you some advice? Never leave the house again without makeup, you are far too pale'.
Clearly makeup wasn't a priority that morning 🙄 AIBU to think this was cruel?

Yes, she was out of order. Maybe she had a bad day. Who cares ? I can't believe so many posters making such a fuss for some stupid random content. Hardly the end of the of world is it ?
To label this as cruel is a blatant exaggeration.
You want to know what cruel is ? Ask many of the women who have abused by their partners, the kind of demeaning and humiliating comments they would throw at them. That is cruel, not this stupid nuisance.

Heck. I usually come on saying give mw benefit of the doubt but hell no

Thats a comment worth a complaint

Presumably the OP isn’t making it up. You wouldn’t say it but you can’t speak for anyone else regardless of being in the same profession.

I think you would be surprised about what some of your colleagues say. I had a midwife say I wouldn’t fit into my pants size 10 in a really bitchy way. They fitted fine. No need, such a pathetic individual trying to take a new mother’s confidence away.
