I need a bit of advice. One of my best friends keeps referring to my son as her baby. And I don't think she means anything by it but it still really bothers me. She has a son who is a great kid, but I just don't personally agree with most of her choices because they are affecting him so negatively, plus we also don't really talk that often anymore cause of her choices. So that kind of adds to making me uncomfortable when she calls my son "her baby". I wouldn't feel comfortable with anyone calling him that but she's the only one doing it. I'd never call someone else's child "my baby", no matter how close we were. How can I tell her I don't like her calling him that without sounding mean? It's just he's my son, who I have been trying for for years and it feels like she's trying to take this joy away from me.

very true. this is your baby and you shouldn't have to feel uncomfortable around someone with your baby. I do find it odd that she's sharing pictures with that headline. @lizzilarson

tell her how you feel... if she still your friend shell understand and if she get mad and yells so what... this is your moment of joy. if she feel different go tell it's time for another bundle for her

@firefly, @firstbaby_girl I think I will. I guess I have to remember that if she gets mad about it and stops talking to me that she's not a true friend.

Maybe try bringing it up as if someone else did it and be like 'ya know what really gets on my nerves? Lately so and so has been referring to my baby as theirs and it's just really annoying and frustrating because he's mine and ie tried so hard for so long to have him and it just takes my joy away ya know?' Something like that. If you want to be discreet. If you want to be upfront just tell her hey I don't mean to upset you or anything but could you please not call my baby yours anymore?

@starmommie, I'm trying to ignore it but she shared pictures of him saying "welcoming my new baby"
I just don't get why people try to put a claim on other people's kids.
