How to tell friend not to kiss my baby?

[icedlattes]

A friend of mine was really excited about my baby being born and loves cuddles and kisses - which is fine with me, but she's gotten a bit OTT, last time she visited she kissed the baby on the lips a couple of times and it made me feel really uncomfortable. I'm not precious about my baby but I had quite a difficult delivery and stay in hospital so I want to be really careful about germs and even without the hygiene issue it makes me feel a bit uncomfortable anyway!

No one else has done this, it's always been on the head kisses or just cuddles, I'm not sure how to mention it to my friend without it being really uncomfortable afterwards.

She even did it while my baby was trying to sleep and trying to feed, when my baby was trying to turn her head and face away. I then tried to keep it casual by mentioning 'oh babys name is trying to sleep/feed at the moment' and she just continued regardless..

Makes me not want to meet up with this friend anymore.. wwyd?

I opened this thread thinking it could be about me. I adore my best friends little boy as one of the cutest most cuddly babies I've ever known, I always give lots of kisses and cuddles as I just can't seem to help myself and he loves it too, very tactile and cuddly baby.
Relieved to see it isn't as I would never be so strange or stupid to kiss a baby lips to lips especially not a new born one.
Maybe just mention it to her gently before you just cut her off. She obviously loves your baby but doesn't know the risks of kissing him like that.
I hope my friend doesn't feel awkward when I kiss her son.

Next time you see her tell her straight away before cuddles. "No more kissing baby by the way I don't like it" she has to stop. On the lips is definitely crossing the boundaries.
