Office related - Why do new mothers............
...insist on bringing their new baby into the workplace to show their colleagues ? 
Second one this week ....
Poor kid is crying it's lungs out and all the maternal colleagues are sitting poking the poor thing. " Give me a shot, I want to hold it, ooooh isn't it lovely" (looks the same as all other 3 wk old babies)
Rant over

This happened in Specsavers when I was getting my last new pairs of glasses (buy 1 get 1 free
) Because the bint serving me was more interested in the screaming **** factory that her colleague had brought in, than she was in listening to my requirements, they tinted the wrong pair
When I complained, they tried to insist that I needed to pay for the replacement lenses in the everyday pair
needless to say words were exchanged, I didn't pay, and got a voucher for money off the next pair

If 8 doting splits gather round a skriking spawn for 10 minutes cooing over it, then thats more than an hours lost work time... Also the blokes feel nauseus due to a baby being in the room and will take time off sick (possibly days) to recover.
The spawns gurgling and crying noises reduce customer satisfaction as callers cant hear properly for all the puking and nappy changing demands made by the spawn.
All (bar the odd seedless couple) can make these things, 1minute of grunting a 9 month wait while the incubator swells, followed by a few more hours gruting and there we go... It is NOT an achievement... We dont care.. Humans have been spawning for years and yours looks like every other...
As for comments like "oooo he's got his daddys eyes cooo keeee choooo avant ya, avent ya got ya daddies eyes? oooo keee choo choo yes"... If spawn had his dads eyes his dad would have no eyes because spawn would have them... Its ababy they all look, sound and smell the same... Sure you're proud of yours... BUT WE DONT CARE!!!!!
And relax

As for the ones who wander round with their GUT sticking out - not even attempting to cover it up, whilst proclaiming "It's natural and beautiful!" - have a bit of pride woman!...

Abdabababadazzzz or whatever your flunking name is; if you personally had gone through childbirth you would realise it IS an achievement. When a woman has a child she feels like she is the first woman to have done it and wants all to see her child - she is so proud. We gently bring ourselves with a giggle telling ourselves we're not the first!
Women who go through labour and end up delivering by cesarean, a major op on par with someone like you having kidney out, HAVE TO take to life without giving things a second thought. If you did have that kidney out, you would expect to be allowed to stay in your kip for a few weeks and do nothing!!!! Now tell me those women have nothing to be proud of.
Even the previous 9 months are total hell for some women; yet they still manage to come to the office to do work. It's a major thing compared to MAN FLU most of you men get and take sickies for
And what physical triumphs do you have over the duration of the pre-pregnancy, pregnancy and birth? Shooting your load and hoping for the best - nothing to write home about!
So, get over yourself. And next time you dont want to see/hear our babies don't look/listen. You manage that when we, the superior species, nag at you.

Thanks Shonen.
Also, thanks to Uncle Ricky for the quote
I would also like to thank my GP, the ante-natal ward staff, the labour ward staff, the theatre staff, my registrar, peadiatrician (sp) the post-natal ward staff and of course my midwife for delivering my baby and keeping me well after my c-section. Apparently it's not a big deal, but you deserve it anyway Oh, and not forgetting hubby for his great contribution by *ahem*. You're great.
