Need advice and a vent!

Babalonia

Hi May Mommies..it's been a while since I bumped and I have a situation and looking for advice.

 A girl I work with who I never was friends with had a little girl two months before my LO was born and because of that we have become friends.

Her DD is I guess you can say "advanced" for her age..or at least more "advanced" then my DS.  (walking at 9/10 months, saying more words then my DS etc).

Well anyway I'm sure she means well and think its "cute" but I am CONSTANTLY getting videos of her DD doing something "wonderful" (cleaning up her toys, eating with a spoon, riding the rides at an amusement park) plus the daily phone calls and messages on facebook.

I just go along with it and say "thats great" etc..I'm not jealous because I know every baby is different..I think it's just OVERLOAD.  

Do you think I should just accept that this is how my "new friend" is and keep the peace? I wouldn't even know what to say if I said something.

Thanks..

does she do it just to you or does she do that with everyone?  I really have no advice though that must be annoying, and since you work together, I'd probably just suck it up. In one ear and out the other. You could block/hide messages from FB.

If she is like that to everyone you might not be able to do much other than ignore her phone calls.

Every baby focuses on different skills. Is there anything your DS does that her DD doesn't do. For example my bff (babywillmake3) son is 1 month younger than my DD. He started walking months ago and she just started walking 2 weeks ago. However DD focused on learning how to climb and could pretty much climb anything for a few months now. Her DS just started climbing stairs and such a few weeks ago. I would send her videos of all the awesome things DS does. At some point they will both be doing all the same things.

I'd roll my eyes when she isn't looking just to get the irritation out of my system - that's probably just the way she is. I know lots of moms who want to AW but not with the intention of hurting another mom.
