[quote=Anonymous]This would bother me so much too! My coping strategies would be: -remind myself it's not about me--it's about them and their relationship to LO and they probably don't even realize that they're hurting my feelings -give a little smile and secretly know it's not true and (try to) feel smugly confident that I know better -ask them "Why do you say that?" with a look of genuine curiosity -ask them "When DH was a baby, who did he prefer?" -agree wholeheartedly and leave them all with LO for a while -do what the PP suggested about telling your husband that it actually hurts your feelings (that's the mature, healthy choice!) It does suck. I'm sorry. [/quote]
