Weekend "complain"fest

stillcozy

When you just can't wish to complain about "things" going on around us/to us until Monday. ( hopefully PC enough for admin)

Nerdchild

I nominate the weather at the football game I'm attending. Brrrrr!!

Ha! Lamefest!

My complaint i have no snacks im on a car trip and dh is listening to the news on the radio...

AAAG13

@Lindsayleigh1989 talk radio is the worst. DH knows not to listen to that while I'm in the car or I will go insane.

Nerdchild

No snacks?! That's just cruel.

afrazer521

@Lindsayleigh1989 and @AAAG13 Yeah my husband's all into npr all of a sudden. I really would rather not listen to it. My weekend complaint? I have too many to even get started on so I'll complain that life kind of just sucks in general and I'm having a hard time taking my own advice to be the good you want to see in the world. (Said it atleast 5 times to dh this morning trying to navigate crazy Christmas shoppers when we just needed to pick up bubble wrap at walmart)

msuzannah

What the hell ms? GTFO of my life!!! I was feeling awesome yesterday and thought that maybe the 2nd tri heaven was finally going to happen and now I'm back to throwing everything up. Also I still have to get some last minute Christmas gifts and I am DREADING dealing with all the people.

trucksntutus

My complaint is my "pregnancy brain"! I went to Walmart today on my lunch break from work to get snacks, among other things. But I initially went to get a bottle of Visine for my dry eyes.. and didn't get it! Ugh! Now I have to go again...

Jodi1980

Talk radio and Sports Talk Radio in the car on a 60 decibel from my DH!
Grrrrrrrr

DH. He woke me up at 1 am by yelling to me from the hallway to ask where the tums where. My answer was in the freaking (I think that's not a swear?) linen closet where we keep all meds. Which was also 3 feet in front of his face but he hadn't bothered to look before waking me up.

kitkat1006

That I have bought 98% of the Christmas gifts for both of our families and am now a couple of hours into wrapping them as DH cleans his shotgun he went skeet shooting with all day yesterday. And I'm starving and he hasn't left to get us dinner yet like he said he would 45 minutes ago wahhh.... 

ButterMyBiscuit

I made the mistake of thinking things were improving. Bam! Nausea all.weekend.long.

Nerdchild

Oh, man, seriously, the nausea/smells. It was like the entire household full of buttholes were conspiring against me this morning. First, I was picking up the dog poop since the gardener and trash collection come tomorrow, which is already gag inducing, when my pit comes and drops a freshy right next to me. More gagging. I rush into the downstairs bathroom to wash my hands, BAM, my husband has pooped in the bathroom, not closed the toilet/sprayed/turned on the fan. Gag, gag, gag.

thebigoaktree

I can't open my fridge with out gagging. There's nothing in there that isn't in Pyrex or original containers, my body just hates my fridge, and it's been my favorite thing in the house, now we're enemies.

The gif oh the gif made me vomit haha so funny and has been me all freaking weekend! Where is the happy second trimester I hear about?!

Complaint: flight at 7am tomorrow! 4am wake up call to drop dogs at the kennel, taxi it to the airport, check in 45 minutes early as is required by said airline during peak holiday travel time (aka more than 45 minutes will be required to get through the line), and then fully expecting crap from security about refusing to go through X-ray and asking for a pat down instead. Did I mention I hate flying and bought hospital quality 99.9% germ preventing filter masks? Crazy pregnant lady coming through! Hopefully other people will just think I'm super sick and stay as far away as possible. The only downside of living 1,300 miles from family...

That sounds awful hope everything goes smooth and maybe they rush you through the line with your mask

Not so much a complaint but I'm getting really anxious as I slowly gain weight. I've lost about 7-8 lbs so far due to ms but I'm struggling as I gain because I've worked out/tried to and I can barely keep food down. I know it's normal and fine but as I've worked hard to lose the weight to see it go up makes my anxiety shoot through the roof! The scale and me are not friends right now!

I'm irritated with my parents. They came to visit to go to the Gowboys game and I rode home with them and the kids. My mom smokes and my dad and mom started vaping recently. A little backstory: my parents smoked all my life. My mom smoked while pregnant with me and my siblings. They stopped about 9 years ago and started up again for about a year. It didn't bug me much until I became pregnant. I don't want to be around smoke and especially my kids and I be in the car while they are vaping. I told them it bugged me and they didn't care. I think it's because my mom smoked while pregnant and we turned out fine? Ugh maybe I'm just being hormonal.

Nerdchild

@juliagulia38 Oh HELL no. My mother is a smoker, but she knows how I feel about it (and have felt about it all of my life). There will be no cigarettes smoked around this baby (her first and so far only grandchild).

This is my third baby but first pregnancy since they started smoking again. I don't know how to go about it. They vape in the house and car. My mom smokes in the garage but she smells and their car smells.

Nerdchild

I wish I could advise, @juliagulia38, I'm very fortunate that my mother, knowing how her smoking makes me feel (we lost my dad to lung cancer in 2010), refuses to smoke in the car with me (mine or hers), and only smokes outside (even at her house). She even apologizes when we take her car somewhere because of the lingering smoke smell. My mother-in-law will be harder to 'train' I'm sure, but only because she is a space cadet, not because she is blatantly insists on smoking around me.

I really thought I was in the clear.....10 weeks tomorrow and up until this am no vomit. Ugh!!

And I'm not looking forward to Tuesday. I have to pick up my brother from the airport for Christmas. Yes, that part is grey, but I have to leave my house around 5:30 am and the hubs has to work so I'll have to take DD. Boo!!!

THIS! Oh my god, I can't even look at my fridge without feeling sick. My whole kitchen (normally a very happy place for me) is out of the question.

You need to throw away your scale. Or hide it until after the baby. For your sanity, you need to!

I feel the same way. My mother is the only one that smokes, but I've been very clear with her I do NOT want her smoking around the baby, period. Especially in the car which is where she does a lot of her smoking. So sick.

I have a tickle in my throat that isn't going away. I've had a cinnamon lozenge (non medicated), hot lemon tea, coughed...nothing. Last time this happened (right before BFP) I came down with bronchitis and pneumonia. If that happens again....

Do you have a humidifier ? I get a tickle in my throat when it is so dry in our apartment. Fingers crossed everything is fine!

Lots of hot water with honey & cinnamon. Lots of sleep... Sleep sleep sleep

Alright, my last b**** for the night;  While I have been fortunate to only vomit a handful of times in the past 11 and a half weeks of this crazy journey, every single one of those episodes has been linked to a poop/fart smell.  My dry heaving is ALWAYS triggered by a poop/fart smell.  So why, after hearing about this from me for weeks, does my husband still crop dust the entire house with his anal odor?  Warn me, use the many room sprays I have strategically placed around the house, or go outside to do it.  Signed, the woman who just rage cried in between her puke roller coaster because, damnit, this should be an easy thing to avoid!

P.S., next time, I will not run to the toilet or trash can, I will vomit directly on the person who created the offending odor.  No. Apologies.

Edit; making this post P.G. for the new regime.

My DH is being a first class a hole today. He has been away a lot for work and we're a little behind on some house work and a few projects we had on the go. This is apparently all my fault because he is a shining example of perfection. The fact that while he was gone I've been working full time +, looking after our DS who had a week long stomach bug that involved me cleaning diarrhea from every surface in his room multiple times each day and trying to manage my own MS which is always at its worst at DS's bedtime is apparently irrelevant. I very nearly knocked out all his teeth. I can't even look at his miserable face anymore today for fear of totally losing my mind. /rant

(I work security at a hospital.)

I just had to get an elderly man from his hotel room and watch him watch his wife die. I don't think I can human right now. I have 5 hours left on shift.

@pandaferh love it for solidarity
But really here are (((hugs)))
And I was going to complain about cake. Now it's petty and embarrassing. Sorry for your rough day.

mamafox14

I haven't thrown up in a week. I'm 12+1 so I thought I was getting early entrance to the magical 2nd trimester.


I was wrong. My husband and I were brushing our teeth before bed when suddenly I was overcome by an all too familiar feeling. And before I could do anything, I vomited in the sink. And then about twenty more times in the toilet. At least I had just cleaned the bathroom....

Vent over. For now.

I am sorry you are all having a terrible weekend.

I've had a busy weekend so haven't had time to read everything!

People got warnings because of the word bitch we think? Probably some troll on here and then there was the whole super sperm thread that got shut down. I think that's it?
