I handled a situation poorly and now I feel bad. - Page 3

Wow, I read this thread, and first I felt mad and sad for how you were treated, and for the loss of your grandfather. I'm with those who think the way you handled it was fine.

It is not OK to cover up someone or their child without their consent.
It is REALLY FREAKING NASTY to tell a nursing mother to get a bottle of formula out of the blue like that.

I am really pleased to read the update. I think the nurse learned a valuable lesson that night, and I am glad she has such a good sense of humor as to be able to laugh about it and see the humor in how ridiculous she was being. Kudos to both of you, in my opinion!

I'm glad to hear there was a good resolution to the situation.

Wow she laughed about it---awesome! I'm glad...but at the same time I think you did the right thing in writing that letter.

First, sorry for your loss! I know how that is!

But what that person did was wrong. I would have done the same thing. And yes I would feel bad but she invaded your space first.

I have had a few people say to cover my baby at the time with a blanket. One of the times, I was eating and said:
"I promise to cover her head if you also cover your head while eating."

end of discussion.
