I know I arguably have the cutest child in the universe, but why do perfect strangers feel the need to touch him?
I don't mind the ooh-ing and ahh-ing whatsoever but when they cross that line and touch him I don't like it! I am by no means a germaphobe but it's my duty to keep him healthy and that is done by hand washing and such. So why would I let someone who, for all I know, was a few seconds before digging for gold in their nose (or other places...uhg!!) Especially when I'm changing his diaper! We are both now in the restroom, germ central and you choose here and now to touch my half-nekkid 5 week old?? Ew.
My favorite is when I'm actually wearing him in his fauxby (a moby-style wrap carrier that I made,) and people still insist on touching him. Would you touch a pregnant woman's belly that you don't know???
Basically my question is how the heck do I handle people like that without blowing them out of the water?
