[QUOTE=lilfatty]

when im out walking trying to get isabelle to sleep i put a muslin cloth over her capsule as people where always looking in and trying to talk to her!



Haha snapped, I used to cover Xanda when in his pushchair or capsule almost 99% of the time, because I hated people looking at him and then it felt like they would be whispering about him to their friends as they walked off.]]> Sat, 01 Mar 2008 13:06:51 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14883&PID=315104&title=does-anyone-else-feel-like-this#315104 <![CDATA[does anyone else feel like this? : Jennz wrote:Funny I am just...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14883&PID=315085&title=does-anyone-else-feel-like-this#315085 Author: Two Blondinis

I still go "awwwww a cute little bubba" and then "gosh, that's such a new little baby!" and give "that smile" that Kate talked about hehe. But I also find myself watching people up town with 2 or 3 yos who are fussing or tantying etc, I'll never know the full story but usually I think to myself "oh that kid's just hungry/tired, I hope you're going home soon" and occasionally I've given the odd encouraging (I hope!) smile to the parent who looks like they are handling the grizzling really well and being firm etc - I really wanna pat them on the back !!]]> Fri, 29 Feb 2008 21:58:03 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14883&PID=314843&title=does-anyone-else-feel-like-this#314843 <![CDATA[does anyone else feel like this? : I still get clucky and I am Kelly...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14883&PID=314631&title=does-anyone-else-feel-like-this#314631 Author: susieq

I must admit the good thing about the Phil and Teds is that people can't see at a glance that the gremlins are twins so I get less of the "oh look, there's twins" that I used to get when they were smaller in the side by side buggy, but we do still get drooled over quite regularly.

I don't do it when I have my own kids with me coz I'm too busy making sure they aren't terrorising anyone, but when I'm out without the kids I must confess to being a baby-watcher.

I can't help having a peek too, and notice a lot of women stealing glances at my buggy in return... get a few "gosh, there's 2 of them!" comments usually followed by "Are they twins?" and something along the lines of "Wow, you're going to be busy" when they notice the bump! ]]> Fri, 29 Feb 2008 12:57:56 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14883&PID=314441&title=does-anyone-else-feel-like-this#314441 <![CDATA[does anyone else feel like this? : After work last night we went...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=14883&PID=314407&title=does-anyone-else-feel-like-this#314407 Author: minik8e

this is also very embarrassing to admit......but yesterday i was in the warehouse and i could hear a newborn crying, so i went down the next isle just so i could have a look! i also get a strong urge to want to pick a crying baby up!
