Welcome and, yes, there are somethings there that I can definitely relate too! BTW, your DR. sounds a bit off... has he given you any other problems with your DD being advanced? Maybe just something to keep an eye on. We had some relatives say similar things and that's never fun.
About talking to other moms, I've really learned good topics. I talk about DD's sleep habits (or total lack thereof!), her current interests, her crazy eating habits etc. It's not like her sight words come up in everyday conversation, you know what I mean?
Somethings DD does are too obvious (she's always been very physically advanced). If people ask when she started walking, etc. I just tell them but make sure I say it very matter of factly so it does not sound like I'm bragging. Also, I might even through in something about some of DD's bright friends who were late walkers if I see that a nervous/anxious parent is asking.
Most of my close friends know that it hasn't been all roses with DD. She's a WONDERFUL kid but definitely a handful so I haven't had to do with much envy.
BTW, I came over here when DD was 6 months so I can relate to have a demanding infant.
