This drives me mad too and I was going to make a post about something similar
Here are my recent ones -
- Getting told I was 'boring' by my own mum for limiting the amount of time sitting in the sun whilst on holiday .
- Being told by my mum again that 'babies have always been born regardless of all these things you are now not allowed to do' ...... True but infant mortality is much lower now than years ago.
- Being told I am 'silly' for not eating runny eggs and being told 'no wonder your daughter is always ill', for not allowing her to eat runny eggs and 3rd time reheated fish (She was 1 at the time) This is by DH's family.
- Being asked if my pregnancy was a mistake by the check in lady at the airport, cos I was going on holiday with a friend!!! Uhm what!?!?
- Being told I was 'rude' for telling family and close friends about my pregnancy at 6 weeks (my DH's Aunt). This same lady told me I was silly for buying stuff before baby was born and that my DH should go out after birth and buy these things! RIDICULOUS superstitions, if something bad happens it will not be because I have bought a double buggy!
Have loads more but can't remember them all now!
