Please, do not use pronouns unless you are absolutely certain of the sex of my child. If I dressed my beautiful boy in pink with ribbons in his hair and you called him a "she", that is totally my fault. But when he is in a green car seat with a blue blanket in a basketball jersey, the most likely guess would be that he is a HE.
Seriously! This bugs me so much I just want to tell some people off. Just because my son has hair does not make him look like a girl! It is very obvious to anyone who looks in his direction that he is a boy, so stop calling him a girl!
*whew*
Okay, my rant is over.
But seriously, people, it is much nicer to say "what a lovely baby" if you are at all uncertain and want to be nice and compliment the parents on making such a fine specimen of humanity.
