i can deal with seeing people smoke while pushing a pram, but i walked past a guy yesterday who had a very small child in his arms, while smoking a cigarette. disgusting!!

I used to know someone who smoked while babywearing

Ewwwwwww nasty. I spoke to someone who preached the virtues of breastfeeding and how she hated formula blah blah blah. .... said she babywore, and had now given up smoking when her kid was 3. So must have been smoking when she was small and babyworn. Not so natural parent now.....

That's awful. And disgusting. I can't stand cigs though. They make me ill. But around a child, esp an infant, makes me down right angry!

When my other half gets passive aggressive with me and sulks.

Honey, just be assertive and tell me that was I did hurt your feelings so we can move on. You waste our family time together when you do this. I'm not going to be more apologetic just because you didn't talk to me for a few hours.

Same to my mum. If you don't like someone I said on Facebook, just tell me instead of leaving bizzare responses at 3am. Stop referring to me as 'buddy' and 'pal' in these comments. And my status that mentioned I was surprised at the age Eminem was this year is NOT a dig at your age mum so calm down!

another thing that pushes my buttons. my auntie is like 18month older than me or so, we were brought up together and she is my sister, best friend and auntie in one, she always says to me 'whenever you want to talk or rant you know where i am' so of corse when i need to rant, i go to her.
whenever i rant about my job she tells me i need another, i tell her i like my job bcos i have good hours meaning im not away from Malakai for so long her reply was 'you chose to have a baby, thats life, you cant stay at a job you dont like just bcos you dont want to miss your baby sneeze. this really annoys me i hate saying 'youd understand if you had a baby' but thats exactly what it is, she was the same with my dogs, she said im pathetic until she got her own and now shes worse than me. just winds me up how she says i can rant to her yet when i do i feel worse afterwards!!

I actually can't stand seeing people pushing a pram whilst smoking. It annoys the hell out of me. I am a smoker myself but I don't smoke in front of the kids

i also hate seeing people push a pram whilst smoking, but id rather see that than someone carrying a baby in their arms with a fag in their mouth, not just that the smoke is right there, the kids head was inches from the cig!! awful!!! i bet he smokes in his house though too.

i went to my OHs aunties the other day to see her foster daughters, daughter (that was hard) she smoked when pregnant and her baby was 5lb something at birth, when i was there the other day her foster dad was sat in the living room, with the baby smoking. his wife said 'i wish you wouldnt, everyone else goes outside' his reply was 'its my house if i want to smoke here i will'.
i mean fair enough, its your house your rules, but im sure you can sacrifice this for a baby cant you?

Me & DH go outside, always have done. One of us makes an excuse to go outside (check on the weather, water the plants etc), shut the doors then go round the side of the house so they can't see. Even if we are out for the day, one of us will 'go check on something' and go out of sight.

Smoking in the house and car whilst there is kids/babies present is my biggest bugbear.

-people who dismiss science for religion
-people who take ages at ATM's
-cleaning the oven

Cold ketchup is a new one! Could be a cool band name.

My peeve for the day is people trying to talk me into their religion at the door while I am obviously busy. Naked child in one arm and nappy with turd in the other. An no, don't ask me when my husband will be home. We aren't married and he's not interested either.

Oh yea, I hate that, too. I never answer the door anymore because they roam our neighborhood so much it's obnoxious. And it's always around dinner or bath time. If I'm not expecting anyone, I don't answer the door.

I literally just put a sign on the top door of our house (which is close to the street but too far from the living areas for me to hear someone knocking) saying

Couriers and invited guests, please use entrance at bottom of driveway. Hawkers, collectors and proselytisers, please save yourselves the walk.

lol! I am months late to this, but I'm a serial bread squeezer! I'm so sorry!
My grandma used to squeeze bread back when squeezing bread was useful (as in, it was to tell fresh from day-old bread). This made my mom constantly squeeze the packaged bread, which is really all the same. And now I squeeze bread without thinking about it at all. I always catch myself and take the one I squeezed, but I feel like a dufus that my autoplay is to squeeze it.

 

[cherrylips100]

Never heard of the bread thing!
Must add (this is a risky one on a baby website) people who post statuses aimed at their babies I.e 'hope you have a great day at preschool, mummy loves you xxxx'. Erm, I don't think your one year old can read yet nevermind use facebook haha

Not only that, but who knows what creepers are stalking your kids where-abouts when you post things of their location at that exact moment. Kidnappers anyone?

 

[hayz_baby]

People who's fb names include their child's name or just say mummy. Eg name childsmummy surname.

THIS!!! althought my instagram name is malakaismummy

 

[cherrylips100]

Yes! The middle name thing is super annoying. What about the memes that say 'share if you love your child'? Or 'share if you're against animal abuse'?
