  • Those were my thoughts exactly! I didn't even respond b/c I had no clue what to say.

  • I think it means you have beautiful baby.

    I think it means you have beautiful baby.

    I'm going with this also.

  • Ummm.  That's a weird statement, whether compliment or not, it is very weird.
  • It is a strange thing to say. FWIW, I do think he looks like a boy.
  • You definitely have a pretty boy! And there's no mistake in him looking like a boy!

    (FWIW, people make "weird" comments to me as well. At the hairdresser I mentioned I gave birth to a boy 7 weeks ago. Her response "Ah, how cute.....and for a next baby I bet you're hoping it will be a girl" and for the next 5 minutes she's talking about me having a girl and what fun that would be.....I mean, I just gave birth to A BOY! maybe she could've said nice things about boys....?)

  • You know I had a couple people tell me that when Rowen was a baby.  I had one lady who actually elaborated and told me it was because he had a lot of features that girls would kill for like his mile long lashes.  Don't let it get to you, it just means your baby is beautiful!  (but I agree, it is a weird comment).

  • I bet it was meant as a compliment, but I have to agree with PPs, it's a strange way to pay a compliment.
  • Yeah, I think she meant it as a compliment but she could have choose a better way to word it. I wasn't offended just didn't know how to respond.

  • Yeah, I would say it was definitely meant to be a compliment.  And I don't think she was trying to say he looks like a girl.  Funny way to say how cute he is tho!
