Another Motherhood lesson learned



I'll spare everyone the details of my taking Macie with me to the Dr. today, but I definitely won't do it again unless I absolutely have to. It's not that she's a super fussy/"bad" baby, she just doesn't like sitting around waiting for the Dr. either (are they ever on time???).


The Dr. sent me down to the lab to get some blood work done and Macie was crying. Instead of bringing her in the lab while she was screaming there was a nice comfy bench right outside the door. I sat there and held her for a bit until she calmed down. While I am rocking her some old fart comes up to me and says "tell her to stick a sock in it". NO, I AM NOT KIDDING!!! I turned to him and said "you stuff a sock in it, babies cry you know". Ever have one of those situations where you think of so many much better comebacks? Having that experience now. What a cranky, miserable old man. Most people walked by and said "awwww, poor thing", or "she's a cutie".....NOT HIM. Even Captain Obvious said "she's not very happy (with a smile)".


UGH, just had to share that.

How could anyone say something so rude to that face?

There are no words - you should be congratualting yourself for not killing the man.

How did your appointment go - I mean, aside from the obvious Macie issues.
