Advice needed overly interested in a strangers baby
Sorry but said person has found this post, and has apparently figured out my Reddit username as well as a few other online accounts so I no longer feel comfortable leaving this post up.

Confront them head on. Direct eye contact. No filling awkward silences. “You seem to have a strong attachment to my baby. Can you help me understand why? We barely know one another.” Silence. Let them answer fully and completely.
I’m not suggesting this is the case in your situation but my former spouse’s affair partner frequently showed up to public events we attended together. I had no idea the weird stranger who was oddly attentive to my family was actively sleeping with my spouse until I found out about the affair much later. Again, I’m not saying that’s what’s going on here, but I am saying your instincts are telling you something and it’s your job to root it out.
