weird co-worker comment
my job just gave us some free pedometers as part of a wellness program they are starting. one of my co-workers (young, has 1 daughter) asked me if im getting a baby jogger and i said i registered for a city mini. then another co-worker said it's not really good to run/jog with babies when they are too young because of all the movement. this co-worker doesnt even have kids lol. and i dont plan on running or jogging with the baby but i will most definitely be going for nice walks. i didnt feel like explaining myself to this woman so i said i registered for 2 strollers and the other stroller was a regular one. then she said "ohhh. 2 strollers" and then the convo ended. i just thought it was weird that she was adding her 2 cents in when she doesnt even have any children.

Everyone LOVES to give their unsolicited opinion and advice! Just ignore her.

Re: weird co-worker comment
Just because she doesn't have children doesn't mean she doesn't have a lot of experience or knowledge.
If you're on a smooth path, why can't you jog, it's not like they are on your back or anything?
Sorry she annoyed you though.

Re: weird co-worker comment
People love to give their opinions on everything.. but like a pp said, just because she doesn't have a kid, shouldn't mean that she doesn't know about things. I do agree shouldn't have said what she said.. people can be annoying..

she does have nieces and nephews, so im sure she knows things about kids... but this is just one of those co-workers that always needs to say something. guess you just have to know her! lol. i didnt take it personally though. just another one of her comments that i let roll.

Re: weird co-worker comment
I just wanted to let you know that I read an article about the same thing, if your walking with the baby it's fine, but the article said you should not jog or run with a baby that is too small in one of the jogging strollers.

I wish people would just not talk... DH's cousin's husband did this to everything we said about our son or the future plans we had for a house... like he knows everything and we are just stupid

I've read that also. I don't plan to run with my LO until she is 6 months old. I will use my jogger for walks around the neighborhood and to the park.
I'm sorry she annoyed you.
