Today, I took my wife and newborn baby girl home from the hospital. While waiting for the elevator, an elderly couple leaned over, saw our baby, and said, "Look, it's the fat kid that was in the nursery." My baby is six and a half pounds, and my wife hasn't stopped crying. FML

You should of replied "Look, its those wrinkled prunes that go around insulting newborn babies". That'll teach them ;DD

How is this an FML? The chubby babies are usually the cutest and the healthiest. Fat babies are the best.

FYL for having to deal with a hormonal wife for some months. I once was one the hormonal weepy wife, with a 9 pound 9 oz baby (who was is now 6'5" tall and 200 lbs. - thin and handsome, if it makes her feel any better). Good luck and patience to you OP.

As everyone already said, your daughter isn't fat. She's on the small side of average. However, if your wife is still upset about the comment, and wont listen to the '6 and a half pounds isn't fat' logic, remind her that peoples body shapes change as they get older, and that babies are supposed to be fat.

They need to be put in the same home as the elderly that budge in line because they think the world owes them something. Do unto others. My sisters both weighed 6.7lbs and I weighed 7.8lbs. I was a skinny baby, even now im 5'11" and 128lbs. People need to mind their manners, just because your baby isn't emaciated doesn't mean she's fat. What would they prefer? An FAS or crack baby?

aww that's A tiny baby not a chunky one.

Six and a half pounds is tiny! I was eight pounds exactly when I was born and I sure as hell wasn't chubby. It really doesn't matter what size you are when you're born - my friend weighed half of what I did (yes, only four pounds) when she was born and she's a dress size bigger than I am. Shame on your wife though. I can imagine it's pretty horrible when you've just had a baby and some wrinkly old hags are insulting towards it.

The will to act.. Seriously, someone insulted your family right then and there and you decided to do nothing? Would you also decide to do nothing if someone pointed a gun at either member of your family or yourself because you're frightened?
