Everyone we meet thinks Piper is 6 months. When I tell them she was 12.9 at 8 weeks they''re like, ''OH. She''s a big ol'' baby.'' Jesus! She''s EBF, it''s not like I''m force feeding her bottles, so stop saying she''s ''Just chubby''. My husband was almost 11lbs at birth, so I''m not really surprised, but why do people feel the need to comment? It''s like they think I''m overfeeding her and we''re going to have to put her on Maury Povich or something.She''s probably past 13 pounds at nearly 3 months, is that husky? I don''t like people saying she''s a fatty.
It''s funny because I''m so used to hearing it, but my Dad takes major offense. He says, ''Well, she''s nursing, so it''s not like there is anything you can do.''
Amber I don''t think people mean it in a bad way...I actually love it when people say how chubby and fatties my little ones are. I just love rolls...and they have cellulite even in their knees...hehehe
So maybe they mean it in a cute kind of way, sort of like when I refer to my little ones as chunky monkeys, little "gorditos" (fatties...hehe) and I tell them I will have to send them to Biggest Loser Baby Edition!.
Don''t worry...she''s not fat! She''s a baby, and babies are meant to be a little chubby (because who can resist chubby cheeks!)
