Oh, sugarmuffin, I can SO relate to what you're saying! I was 38 when my daughters were born - technically, yes, old enough to be their grandmother as birthmom was 19 at the time. It used to just infuriate me - and I kept track of how many times it happened (21 so far).

It really does taper off over time. My "babies" are 7 now and I NEVER hear it anymore.

I remember one time in particular when we were having dinner at Applebee's. The girls were about six months old, so sitting in their car seats. This old lady walked by on her way to the restroom and said something about "Aren't you cute? Are you here with grandma?" - at which point she looked at me and I just stared back at her. She mumbled "...or mom..." and took off like a shot!
