Comments I received today:

DS crying on bus due to colic. A lovely man saying in a loud voice to his neighbour, "Children shouldn't be left with parents who can't look after them properly."

Bus driver looking at buggy: "Don't you think you're a bit young for one of those?"

Two older ladies in cafe looking at DS, who I had taken the trousers off as he was too hot (was very warm in cafe): "If that was my child, he would be dressed appropriately."

And this is just today. Is really getting on my wick!! I know people will always have opinions, and I probably am being slightly unreasonable, but is it really nessicary? Really?!

Sorry [or not?!] BoobAlot, I'd say you look quite young! Though seeing your name on fb, I think I've spoken to you before here and you're about 20 like me aren't you? Or younger if I remember rightly, so you needn't worry about looking young as you are!

Okay - people today have restored my faith in humanity. I made some lovely new friends () and the bus driver told people to move so I could get on the bus with the buggy AND helped me on and off. Plus I had some other women tell me what a fantastic job I was doing if he was smiling and chuckling so much. Swings and roundabouts!
