Poor you for having to take that wallet photo. I always feel bad about throwing pictures in the trash but you just gotta throw it out at home! </p> <p>The only person I can really think of is one FB friend who uploads new kid photos every single friggin day. At least that is easy to ignore, though, not like an annoying co-worker! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-mamas-who-love-showing-off-their-baby#post-234733 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 20:14:56 +0000 banana 234733@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@jholler25: OMG, please don't order extra wallets for coworkers.

I will probably be really annoying:)</p> <p>I've already booked her newborn photo session and hopefully I won't order extra wallets for coworkers....That is so funny that she did that!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-mamas-who-love-showing-off-their-baby#post-234719 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 20:04:03 +0000 banana 234719@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@JessLC: It was totally awkward! I'm packing up my stuff now and I just took the picture down. WHAT DO I WITH IT? Throw it away? I feel bad throwing it away but I don't wanna keep it either. And what if she sees it in my trashcan later? She's weird enough that she might do that. Maybe I"ll put it in my purse and throw it away at home? I can't even believe I'm wasting my time thinking about this. When I come back from leave, I'm gonna take wallet-sized pics of my new daughter and pin it on her wall. hahaha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-mamas-who-love-showing-off-their-baby#post-234664 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 18:47:40 +0000 MsMini 234664@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@cvbee: I am one as well (LOL) I try to reign myself in ... I really do! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-mamas-who-love-showing-off-their-baby#post-234639 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 18:28:26 +0000 Mrs. Pen 234639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>bahahahaha omg you just cracked me up... you put his picture on your wall..<br /> She sounds like such a kook lol</p> <p>I don't and I'm not that person either. I only talk about my son if people ask :) Of course I think he's the best thing ever and when my hubs gets home from work I get all excited telling him all the things he did that day, but I'd never do that for anyone other than my family or someone who directly asked me </p> <p>lol and it's weird that she brought him to work... hmm. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-mamas-who-love-showing-off-their-baby#post-234632 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 18:23:18 +0000 SleepyMonkey 234632@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@banana: hahah, omg this is so funny!! i am cracking up here on my couch. so awkward! thank goodness you are on your last day :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-mamas-who-love-showing-off-their-baby#post-234625 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 18:21:27 +0000 cvbee 234625@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am one, but I keep it to facebook. I figure if people are sick of hearing about my baby they can just block my news feed, and for those who soak it up, they can visit my daily photo and baby-news. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-mamas-who-love-showing-off-their-baby#post-234620 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 18:18:43 +0000 banana 234620@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sweetchic: I know! I can't believe I pinned it on my wall. She was standing there when she handed it to me and I didn't know what else to do with it! I pinned it on my wall and she smiled and walked away. It's still up there cause she keeps walking by my desk! Today is my last day at work (before mat leave) so I'll remove it before I leave. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-mamas-who-love-showing-off-their-baby#post-234304 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 14:20:39 +0000 Meridian 234304@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@banana: HAHAHA, I can't believe she gave you a wallet size pic... and you accepted and pinned it on your wall! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-mamas-who-love-showing-off-their-baby#post-234302 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 14:20:04 +0000 mrstilly 234302@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Two coworkers had babies a couple of months after I had DS. I have pictures in my office and talk to my coworkers now and then about our kids (and grandkids and dogs) when it comes up, but I try not to talk about him too much unless the other person asks or is really interested. But the two guys I know liked to try to one up me. DS was 95% for height and weight, then their kids were 98% or 99%. DS rolled over, their baby did it a month earlier. I got sick of it and stopped talking about DS at all when they were around unless they asked, which they usually didn't/don't. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-mamas-who-love-showing-off-their-baby#post-234297 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 14:16:21 +0000 MsLipGloss 234297@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do agree it can be annoying when people act like the world revolves around their LOs . . . However, I will take those conversations over conversations with the gossipy, pessimistic pot-stirrers any day! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-mamas-who-love-showing-off-their-baby#post-234254 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 14:02:56 +0000 banana 234254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She stopped by my desk earlier and told me she took 1 year photos of him at JCPenney and asked if I wanted a wallet sized pic. Maybe I'm being too nice. Maybe I should give her a "hint" somehow, like pretend to not be that interested or pretend to be busy all the time. Or.... I don't know. All I know is that I have her kid's wallet sized pic pinned up on my desk wall right now and I wanna shoot myself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-mamas-who-love-showing-off-their-baby#post-234225 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 13:49:54 +0000 Alivoo01 234225@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We absolutely love the hubby's cousin's kids (we treat them like they're our own), but his wife sometimes goes overboard with sharing pictures. She'll share the original, then put it in 5 different "frames" via an app and text them all over. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-mamas-who-love-showing-off-their-baby#post-234187 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 13:38:29 +0000 MrsTiz 234187@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ahg! My SIL is like that, both about herself and her LO. I can.not.stand braggy people. That is my biggest pet peeve, and a good way to make me not like you. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-mamas-who-love-showing-off-their-baby#post-234162 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 13:29:38 +0000 Modern Daisy 234162@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@banana: You just made me LOL at my desk! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-mamas-who-love-showing-off-their-baby#post-234156 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 13:28:16 +0000 banana 234156@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@modern daisy: I try to avoid talking to her but she sits like 2 desks away from me. And since she knows I have a toddler and am pregnant with my 2nd, she walks over to my desk like 10 times a day to show off her baby. Sometimes I pretend to be working on something important so that she'll go away. OMG, I think she's coming right now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-mamas-who-love-showing-off-their-baby#post-234142 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 13:25:29 +0000 regberadaisy 234142@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>YES! My male co-worker!!! It's great that he's so enthusiastic about his kids but man just because his kids did it or did not do it then it means it's the case for ALL kids.</p> <p>His kids are perfect and the epitome of what all kids should be.</p> <p>The annoying part is his kids ARE pretty dang cute! hahha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-mamas-who-love-showing-off-their-baby#post-234141 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 13:25:07 +0000 Modern Daisy 234141@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sort of. I intentionally avoid going to business lunches with certain people who have kids because it's ALL they talk about. It's not that I don't care, but it really isn't that interesting to me and after 2 hours of it I want to shoot myself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-know-any-mamas-who-love-showing-off-their-baby#post-234132 Wed, 25 Jul 2012 13:21:51 +0000 banana 234132@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a co-worker who is CONSTANTLY showing off her baby. She brings baby pictures every single day and talks about the newest and greatest thing her son did. Even right this second, she's showing the janitor all of the pictures she took yesterday of her son! She even brings her baby into the office and walks around showing him off. I get that all mamas are proud of their babies. But man.. it's getting annoying!</p> <p>I'm tired of pretending to be soooooo excited about her baby. Not to be mean but so what if her baby rolled over yesterday and said "mama". All babies do that eventually!</p> <p>Do you know anyone like that? How do you deal with it? </p>
