How to tell people to keep their filthy mitts off your new baby.
A sign of the times? A new product warns people your baby is hands off.
A company called My Tiny Hands has come up with the idea of a sign you can hang in your baby's stroller or carrier that tells people with unwashed hands not to touch. Kind of like the "Don't feed the animals" signs they put up at the zoo. We think this "invention" goes a little overboard, and perhaps the real sign that should be worn is by the mom:
Of course, the tiny little sign (which sells for $4.75) can be useful, says pediatrician and momlogic contributor Dr. Cara Natterson. "It's a nice, gentle reminder to people. If nothing else, it is a good deterrent for most people who just reach right in and touch babies."
But hey, why stop at just telling people to wash their hands when you can tell them how to behave around your kid too:

I think it is a great idea. There is no reason you should feel bad about an up-front message. You, the mom, are the one that will have to care for a sick infant if germs are passed on. Sometimes people need a reminder, but I find that they are happy to wash their hands before they touch the baby.

Germs build immune systems. Not exposing your child to any germs actually hurts them more than it helps them! There are exceptions of course.
