see below: Explanation: Not a translation, just some comments. To my (British) ears, this already sounds like a translation form some other language into English gone wrong. Fussiness IS a word but in this context, I am totally unfamiliar with it, but then I have yet to get into the whole baby and baby-food scene ! ;-) 'Fussiness' used together with the word 'gas' seems odd. My first association is to think of conditions such as "irritable bowel syndrome" or "acid" ... especially IBS makes me think that 'fussiness' is somehow a mis-translation of 'irratability' due to a stomach condition. There again ... 'fussiness' may be a cute American-English term that i have never heard of. |
