[quote=Anonymous]So silly. I was a monstrously large baby and I'm doing okay today - in fact, I wear it as a badge of honor how chubby I was. There is/should not be any negative connotation with chubby babies! I will say this though - there are some people who do have weird body issues they project onto kids and you should try to steer clear of them. For example I know a grandma who talks obsessively about being skinny to her young grandkids - so much so that they started asking "Am I skinny?" and refusing to eat certain things that would "take years off their life." Also, I've had people comment on my baby being chubby in a somewhat negative way - "Are you feeding her too much?" or "Wow, that's a lot." You know by tone - in those cases, I just politely say, "Yes, we're so happy to have a healthy baby!" and move on.[/quote]
