Some have seen this already but, some of our friends from church are going to New York this week. We were supposed to go with them. We all started planning right before i found out I was pregnant, they said it wouldn't be a problem and to bring the baby once it was out. Well further I got into my pregnancy I quit hearing about the trip, honestly thinking it had fallen through, knowing how some of them can be "wishy washy". Nope, they're still going. I found this out months later when someone had mentioned that they had gotten their tickets for the Broadway show we talked about going to. I don't have the balls to say anything, so it really sucks and I'm hurt over it.
If it was because of the baby, they could have said so, even though one couple has children too. Either my mom or MIL would have loved to watch the baby, my mom had even already asked if she needed to when we first told her about it.
ETA: Words
I could not keep my mouth shut over this. I'd say something to your friends.
I think H is going to. He's a lot more outspoken than me. Lol.
I'm so unbelievably pissed at H! He picked up LO from daycare tonight. If LO does not start a bottle, they put it back in our cooler bag. I see on the log that LO only drank 3 of the 4 bottles today. I love this since I can save the milk for the next day. I go to the cooler for the fourth bottle and it's missing. I ask DH and he says, oh I think I dropped a bottle in the parking. I ask, did you pick it up? His face turns red. WHAT. THE. F*CK!! You drop a bottle full of perfectly good BM in a pricey bottle and decide to just leave it? He says LO was whaling & he was out of it after a long day so he can't remember if he picked it up. I called BS and made him go back to the DC to scour the parking lot. Argggh! What a f*cking jack ass! I told him there is no way to make up for such a stupid act. Says to me that he doesn't care or respect all the f*cking shit I deal with to pump all the time. //rant over
Eta: meant to add that he did not find it in the parking lot. So there's a pump session that I'll never get back! Argggh!

@cdseno I hear ya on the school work thing! I'm wrapping my DVM and my grades really matter if I want to get an internship. I got my first C this semester
I'm not exactly bitching but my kid is sick. Miserably sick. I just feel so bad for her. She's stuffy and is tired but her boogers are bugging her. I keep sucking them out but of course they come right back. I've spent all day just rocking her since she screams if I put her down. This doesn't benefit my 3 year old who has had to entertain herself most of the day.

I'm sure if you stuck the pump to his nipples he'd gain a little more respect for you. Ugh!

Ok so there are these women at work...you may know the type. They are always saying things like "oh, it must be so hard for you to come back to work" or "don't you just love being a mommy, isn't it the best thing ever". Now I am very practical and honest to a fault and always seem to offend them when I give them my honest answers...."no, I was kind of board on ML and am ready to work again" and "motherhood is great...sometimes and sometimes...no so much". It's like just because I don't "drink the mommy kook-aid" I am some kind of alien.
Glad to know it goes both ways. Whenever someone tells me I am so lucky to stay home with the kids I have to bite my tongue not to spew out all the things I want to say. Like "yes I am so lucky that most days the only person I talk to is 2 years old and usually begging me to do something for him" or "you're right, I am lucky to spend my days wiping the asses of two children and being covered in spit up." I love my kids and I am glad I can stay home right now, but being a mom is not all sunshine and roses, whether you stay home or go to work. I can't wait for the day when I have a job outside the home and I can interact with adults again.
