Now I realize that it's just a pretext to have the social closeness, but yes then, I was quite embarrassed.
I also was terrible about baby compliments, "What a beautiful baby you have!"
Me: ((beaming)) Yes I know, isn't he lovely!
DH: ((whispering)) You are SUPPosed to say, 'Your baby is beautiful too.'
Me: ((Wha....how dorky would that sound???))
Me: ((Aloud)) Your baby has such pretty hair. ((Does that sound too fake? I'd rather be quoting from the 74 baby books I read, because this small talk feels so awkward!))
((shrugs))
