Complain with me

Amber3535

Sometimes you just need to vent and whine and today is my day. I'm feeling so gross lately. Between milk leakage and spit up half my clothes stink and now are stained. My bras and pants don't fit, but shopping sounds no fun. My boobs are huge and super uncomfortable. Thanks to the mini pill I'm now bleeding like no other. Add the last of the baby weight, and I'm feeling better than ever! Husband assures he thinks i look great but I feel like a mess! Anyone feel the same? I know everything's normal and to be expected, just ready to start feeling like myself again! Anyone else wanna complain away??

and being so tired all of the time. My bil and his gf are coming by tonight and bringing my husbands ex gf with them. They dated for 5years, 10 years ago, but still! She is super cute and has a great body. At least I have a cute baby.

I screwed up on the time for baby girls two month appointment. So I left my husband in the hospital, drove an hour to her appt, only to find out I'm half an hour LATE and I'd have to reschedule. I almost broke down into tears.

So I'm seeing a new place that's actually same city as my work so I can go anyday and schedule it as my lunch. Not gonna lie, I bawled for about twenty minutes at home feeling like a failed mother

I wish I had gone food shopping yesterday when it was nice out.  It's supposed to rain all day today, and I refuse to go food shopping in the rain - especially if I have to cart around DD.  So now not only am I stuck in the house because it's raining, but I'm hungry too!

I've been up since 2am and it's 5am now. No, not because my Lo's not sleeping; she's sleeping peacefully next to our bed. I'm up because my mind it too charged to relax and sleep. I'm worried my disability payments are messed up and am anxious to call them at 8am. This will be an interesting day @-)

I'm just so tired of pumping. I can't help but to complain about it all the time.  I think DH is getting sick of it, too (both the pumping and the complaining). When everyone else is asleep I have to stay up late to pump. Then when everyone else sleeps in, I'm up early to pump. I feel like I can never just relax because I'm pumping around the clock. I have to plan errands and dinners around pumping.  I've cut out dairy citrus fruit, and starches and I miss having milk and yogurt. Ugh!  So dang sick of it!  I'll even have to plan business meetings and inspections around pump times when I go back to work in two weeks.  I'm hurrying like a mad woman to create a freezer stash so that I can start dropping pumps and then dip into the stash when I need to.  I know breastmilk is best for LO for their first 1-2yrs, but I may only make it to 6mo with DS because I can't live tied to the pump like this for a year. The guilt is eating me up!  Sometimes I just feel better getting to complain!

So over still being sore down there, not looking forward to my 6 week PP appointment on Friday and ready to lose the last 6-10 pounds so I can maybe fit in my clothes again.  Tried on some shorts that used to fit perfectly and they don't fit anymore and another pair that used to be really loose are tight.  Totally bummed!

Ugh I can relate! Thanks for complaining with me ladies, it does make me feel better! Glad I'm not alone!

Wait I haven't had my chance lol... I feel just like you guys sick of pumping, pissed none of my clothes fit, sad that I can't drink or get Botox bad I know. Also I just discovered stretch marks on my boobs after 10 weeks of nursing how does this happen? So depressing I just feel like I can't be myself again until I'm done nursing and I'm tiered of carting these heavy leaky milk bags around I hope I even make it to 6 months X_X

I hate to share this... but I am actually down 5 pounds from my pre pregnancy weight and some of my clothes still don't fit right. My hips are wider and I have so much extra skin on my tummy. It sucks!

I feel the same way. Everyone keeps telling me I look great. I feel like they think they're just supposed to tell me that. I wanna say, right except that my stomach looks like a bag of marshmallows. Lol! And I would love to start running or going to the gym again, but when on Earth could I do that??

totally me! I am down 10 lbs from pre-pregnancy weight, and my jeans still don't fit!

I am right there with you. I hate getting dressed in the morning bc I have so few clothes that fit me right now. Showers are hot commodities and shaving is almost non-existent. 

I just keep reminding myself, it took 9 months to get fully pregnant, it is not going to take 2 months to look like I did pre-pregnancy. Especially when I do not have time or energy to work out

I'm just grumpy today for a number of reasons. And it isn't helping that we're in the 6 wk growth spurt and it feels like DD just can't keep it together. The schedule we had going is fubared, I had to do a lot more laundry than I was expecting thanks to a terrific projectile spit up (first ever!) across the crib, my "shower" today was really a rinse because I had to wash the spit up off of DD and did it at the same time to save time, the longest nap she's stayed asleep for was about 45 minutes, and I haven't had a single hot cup of coffee yet. But thanks for letting me vent here, I'm sure DH is tired of hearing about it.

I've got about 7 lbs left to lose, however I lost the first 26 within 3 weeks, so I don't think it's just going to fall right off at this point. I could live with that if I hadn't put on 60 lbs before I even got pg. ::sigh:: I don't think I'll ever see those numbers in the scale again. Darn you quitting smoking and going off nuvaring!

Also, I'm dying to be a SAHM. DH and I had talked about it while I was pg, and he even kind of pushed me to not go back to work but I felt like I had to with all the medical bills we'd be paying. I was (and am) afraid of putting too much pressure on DH, but I really want to quit work until we're done having kids and the youngest is in school. I've dropped hints that maybe I shouldn't have gone back, but I feel like he's relieved I did, and I feel very selfish.

I'll complain with you. I have a csection incision that still isn't healed 8 weeks pp. I have to go to the doctor twice every week to get it checked and flushed with water.

I too feel icky about my appearance. None of my prepregnancy clothes fit, even though I'm only a pound or two over my prepregnancy weight. I also haven't been cleared to do any exercise, so I'm just sitting around eating. I'm worried that my weight is going to creep up, and I feel like a slug.

I have a baby who is a horrible sleeper. He's in my lap right now. I swear I can't put the kid down some days.

Oh, and the water bill this month was abnormally high. I go to ask if maybe they read the meter wrong. Nope, they thought it was high too and already double checked. So, apparently we have a leak that's causing us to lose water somewhere. Now I have to call the plumber. Who knows what that us going to cost to get fixed, and I got the hospital bill in the mail this week.

Ugh, where's that ice cream.
