The things I get annoyed with is when people make comments about why my 10.5 month is still needing to be burped and why my 10.5 month old isn't on proper solids (still on puree but we are getting there) I hate having to explain that because he was prem he's had troubles with eating and he still has reflux and also that he really is only an 8 month old. They make it sound like i'm stupid and don't know what I'm doing. I have had to learn so much more about my child and certain things I need to look out for, things that "normal" mothers just don't understand and thats why I get these comments. They aren't coming from just the older generation they are also coming from woman younger than me!

My point being that age is not the only factor.... If people don't understand something and something is not "normal" then they make thoughless comments without realising what they are saying sounds so stupid!
