I'm going to lose it

If one more MAN tells me the reason Ava is crying is because she's hungry! To the guy pumping my gas this morning and to the gentleman at the travel agency helping me over the phone with pricing out vacations - both advising me to feed my starving baby (because she was quietly mewling and not being completely quiet), please MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS and SHUT IT.

Believe you me, babies cry and fuss sometimes just to cry and fuss, not neccissarily because they're hungry. And for all of you out there thinking that I'm starving my child...take one good look at her. Does she look like she's starving?! With a likeness to a happy cherub - chubby cheeks, bread roll arms and legs - she is NOT starving.

Oh, and it doesn't count if you (aka KENT) purposely stroke the side of the cheek to activate the rooting reflex. They root because it's a REFLEX and not because they're hungry, people! I refuse to feel guilty for not feeding her every time she makes a peep...emotional eating is not something I want to instill this early on!
