PeggyOlsonFTW

Have at it!

Okay, this may be a weak start to WTF Wednesday, but I haven't vomited at all during my pregnancy... until last night.  WTF.  No more Outback cheese fries for me!

WTF to the fact that your story about vomiting up cheese fries kind of made me want cheese fries?!?!?!?!?

My WTF is TMI. WTF to my body. I went to the dr office to do a urine sample bc I was sure I have a UTI. Quick test said no. Nurse said it might be a vaginal infection but no drs at the office today so I have to go back Friday. Feeling so uncomfortable and like I have to pee every 2 minutes even though I don't

WTF insurance. They are not coverings anything and now I have huge bills to pay because of my bloodwork and ultrasound from my ob appointment. The reason I have crappy insurance is because DH is a teacher and doesn't make much. So what makes you think I can pay these outrageous bills. I just don't understand how it costs this much for my 20 minute appointment??!!

LGW2015

@joyful08 why isn't anything covered under your insurance? I thought pregnancy had to be covered by insurance (as long as you're seeing an in-network dr). I know there are copays/deductibles involved but they shouldn't be denying you coverage outright! :-/ hope it gets worked out.

Soon to be Mrs Stephens!

 Wtf did I really cry myself to sleep last night because the bacon I ate made me bloated? And WTF we have no power due to the blizzard outside. Dang you Colorado it's spring break. 

jillianpardo

@Soon to be Mrs Stephens! Yes, our power was out too! I was very annoyed explaining to my toddler why we couldn't do this or that. I feel bad DH is out delivering mail today.

My WTF is to my clumsy self.  I got my blood drawn this morning for the NT scan, and the lab asked for a urine sample as well (that I wasn't prepared for).  I had already gone before leaving the house, so all I had left was a little bit of pee.  Of course as I was trying to put the lid on the cup, I spilled everything on the floor.  Everything.

So I had to gulp down 5 glasses of water and wait for my bladder to do its thing.... which it wouldn't.  After 30 mins of sitting there, I finally went.... but barely.

Of course since being at the office, I've had to go at least 4x already.  WTF bladder.  

@joyful08 , that's troublesome!  Like @LGW2015 said, everything pregnancy/maternity related should be covered.

WTF Subway Sandwich Artist --- when I say extra mayo, I mean extra mayo! And WTF hormones, no need to get upset on lack of mayo on sandwich! 

jjgypsy

I got a UTI Sunday night & had to go to the ER for meds. I couldn't wait.  Now today I'm pretty sure the antibiotics gave me a yeast infection.  wtf!       
I totally feel your pain @LGW2015

LGW2015

UGH I hope you feel better soon @jjgypsy

klv

WTF to my bladder. I got up to pee 4 times last night. Not cool

jillianpardo

I just had a Hershey kisses ad popup in this app, Wtf. now I want to eat some kisses. 

jillianpardo

@sportiegrl1213 mayo is serious. I'm upset for you. 

mothernorth

@jillianpardo Those ads are popping up all over my phone, in every flavor, WTF?!? That is just CRUEL... I don't have any chocolate ;(

bamacoop

WTF to my brain that has not stopped thinking about bacon for the past half hour.

ByeBabyBunting

WTF insomnia! 2 am is not a reasonable time to be awake. I'm exhausted and, and as always, nauseous. 

vanessa11411

WTF body!! I finally gave in and got my prescription for Zofran yesterday. I immediately felt better but now it's causing me to be constipated. If it's not one things, it's another

sportiegrl1213

@jillianpardo right!! thank you! LOL now I don't feel so bad.

4? Pshh, I was up 6 times last night, one of which was 10 minutes before my alarm was going off. 

mrszoess

can I also wtf the Ramzi double thread being closed for "bullying"? nobody bullied her! 

CopperBoom86

WTF It took us "bullying" a newb to garner enough attention to get the u/s thread stickied lol.

@mrszoess - that was my first thought too, but the second part of that admin message was about not airing grievances about the forum or something like that. So it's possible that's why it was closed.

***TW: Previous loss mentioned**

WTF to my MIL. Yesterday, DH sent her a picture of our US. She called him right away and says "Is she showing?" H says, no, not yet. She responds with "well, does she have morning sickness?" H says, no, she's been really lucky. Her response: "Umm, are you sure she's pregnant?" Bitch, did you not JUST SEE the picture of the US? Who says that shit? Maybe I'm overly sensitive because of hormones and because I pretty much can't stand her to begin with but still. You don't say that to a mom who has been through a loss and is riddled with anxiety. Although, we are talking about the woman who, when she found out I was miscarrying, described her abortion in detail and said "so I totally know what you're going through". I guess I shouldn't be surprised by anything that comes out of her mouth. 

Disclaimer: I'm all for a woman's right to choose and don't judge my MIL for the choice she made. In the midst of a loss, however, her comparing her choice to what I was going through was pretty damn awful. 

LGW2015

@MRSCORKER yikes! I'm sorry, that's awful of her to say!

CopperBoom86

Wow, @MRSCORKER. That's pretty freaking awful. I'm sorry she's being such a dick!

Oh HELL no.

Maybe it's just because I'm now in full-on freakout mode about my first ultrasound on Saturday.  Maybe it's because I haven't had bad symptoms or morning sickness either (some serious queasiness here and there but no puking).  But this makes me ragey for you.  If someone questioned whether I were pregnant right now, I would punch that person in the gonads.  And I don't even have the ultrasound picture to prove it.  

And yes, that comment she made to you after your loss is beyond terrible regardless of choice stance.

MRSCORKER

Thanks @simcal18 and @CopperBoom86 It's good to know I wasn't overreacting to her comments. My H acknowledged that they were insensitive but it didn't bother him as much. I guess he is just so used to her level of crazy that it doesn't even phase him anymore. She's a piece of work. I can't wait for the first time she touches my stomach without permission. Talk about getting stabby. 

JamieK1882

@klv I'll see your 4 times to pee and night and raise you two more (yup, 6 times to pee!!). WTF!

UponAStar16

@MRSCORKER ugh, NOT cool of your MIL! So sorry you had to hear her comparing the two situations, and about the newer DFQs

Just make this face any time she gets close to your stomach:

JamieK1882

@smmatt08 I posted too soon. I, too, was up 6 times. Awful. I can't even think of what it will be in 3rd tri. I might just wear adult diapers.

@sportiegrl1213 I feel you! I got half an Italian hoagie for lunch and asked for extra dressing and got ONE PACKET. Just no. Oh well, it ended up being gross and I didn't eat it anyways.

@mrscorker she sounds pretty awful! 

PeggyOlsonFTW

I want to spend all the money right now. WTF, me? I found a great deal on a double stroller which I'll probably buy, but I also want to reserve a vacation house for a trip this summer and book family and newborn photo shoots with a new photographer who's having a sale. 

annabenanna

@MRSCORKER , wow.  you're totally not overreacting.  She sounds like a peach!  So sorry you had to deal with that.

Ugh @MRSCORKER - I would have given your MIL a piece of my mind!  What is wrong with people?

So today, I go to the bathroom at work and run into the cleaning lady who is very nice and I always chat with.  We meet at the door as I am walking in and she immediately says "Oh you're pregnant too!  There is another girl upstairs that is pregnant yada yada..."  Now, if I didn't already feel awful about having a noticeable belly at 8 weeks because it is my second, I definitely have a complex now.  She said it without even pausing!  And I was wearing a flowy shirt - I really thought I looked good today!  WTF...

MRSCORKER

@socks2819 You DO look good today, even though I can't see you Embrace that adorable little bump. 
I know the "in-between" stage is frustrating though. I'm halfway through week 9 and have a noticeable blump after eating. It's getting harder and harder to hide and I definitely notice people looking with the "is she getting fat or is she KU up?" look on their faces. Until we're ready to make it public knowledge, we kinda just have to deal with people thinking we've just been hitting the easter candy a little too hard. They'll know the truth soon enough.

socks2819

Thanks @MRSCORKER I could use the positive reinforcement today!  The blump is the worst.  But my "blump" is not going down lol.  Ugh.  I can't wait to tell people so at least I can enjoy my maternity pants in peace!
