I hear it a lot, because for some reason, I just can't help myself.
Today my husband pushed me aside to feed my daughter. I would normally be happy because feeding is such a long battle. However, I had just heated the pasta up and it was very hot. I blurted out "Wait until it cools down so it doesn't burn her." He just gave me the I-know-what-I'm-doing look and went about blowing on a spoonful of pasta.
Second bite in she squishes her face up and starts crying. Too hot!
Obviously he is going to make the mistake whether I point it out or not... so how do I stop nagging?
Last night after work they were playing an exciting game of peak-a-boo with one of her blankets. He was tossing the blanket over her head and she was twirling and laughing hysterically. I warned: "She's going to hit her face on her crib." 5 minutes later, inconsolable crying from a face plant into the crib.
I could go on and on with these examples. It always starts with my warning. Clearly I should just shut my mouth and let it happen since it's going to happen anyway.
