Fill in the blank snarky comment...

We were at a birthday party yesterday afternoon. One of DH's relatives was asking about Katelyn. She asked how she slept. (This was after a night of up every 1-2 hours, K stayed awake from 1-3, and I was sobbing in the middle of the night out of frustration.)

Me: Horrible, she wakes up 4-6 times a night and sometimes stays awake during the middle of the night for hours.

Her: What does she want??

Me: If I knew, I would give it to her.

Other options that I thought of later...

"She wants waffles, but I don't like the syrup in her crib."

"She's up worrying about the calculus exam I have for her in the morning."

Any other suggestions??

" You, but I figured you'd be pissed if I called you at 3 in the morning for some snuggle time"

~OR~

"Chinese food"

I hate when people ask stupid questions like that and I hate even more when I think of a good response after the fact

I think your reply was pretty fantastic. Maybe "oh nothing, that's just how she rolls."

Land why do people always ask us how our babies are sleeping? Like they care!?!

"A pony, but we just don't have the room."

(I like the "you" response above. Hehe)

She wants you to quit asking her mom stupid effing questions/STFU.

She wants you to take your backhanded question and shove it up your azz.

Argh. What an idiot. I don't have a good snarky response, but enjoyed reading the other ones. Hehehe.

Seriously ... why DO people feel the need to ask about our babies' sleep patterns? My DH used to answer totally honestly, until he realized the kind of responses you get when your kid isn't sttn yet. Now he sugar coats it.

I think people ask how LOs sleep 'cause they just don't know what else to ask. I choose my answer based on how much I think that person knows about babies. If they don't know squat, I'll be honest. If they *think* they know something, I'll lie.

Loving the snarky replies though!
