Weekend Bitchfest

It's suuuuper dead in here, but WTF. If you have bitches, put them here. 

Mine is that I feel like a prize winning dairy cow/pump slave. Every time I turn around my boobs are full, and every time I get on the pump LO seems to wake up and want something. Like right now.

    For 7 years we've been blessed with lots of trees behind our house. Last week a developer posted that they are tearing it all down and building 23 homes. As a SAHM, I don't think I can handle 1 1/2 years of construction and want to move (for other reasons as well).

    We went to look at a house last week. It was $480,000 and needed about $70,000 of work to it. We were hoping it would drop in price but after only 7 days on the market it is pending. Ugg. Our housing market is crazy.

    @erin7264 I agree it's gone very quiet in here! I'm sure it's because everyone is super busy with their LO's, it'll pick up again. :)
    I'm the bitch today, BF is trying to be super helpful and not have me do any heavy lifting or stuff like that. I keep snapping at him because I'm still well capable of doing things and he's making me feel like a child. I went for a walk a short while ago and over half way in I couldn't keep going and had to call BF to come collect me. So WTF to my body who makes me feel like death but yet wont get it's ass into gear when it comes to labor.

    @holly142 - I totally hear you on the ridiculous housing market. DH and I have been looking since October and it's insane. Everything worth buying goes for way over asking price or needs a ton of work. And if it's on the market for longer than a week then it's usually a red flag. I'm glad we'll soon have a baby to distract us for awhile and hopefully things will cool off. Prices just keep going higher and higher too. What we could've bought for $400K in October now goes for $425K :(

    Now that I know I'm going to be in the hospital for a few days starting tomorrow I'm trying to clean, but I don't want to. I'm not feeling the whole nesting thing. Just want to meet my baby (hopefully) tomorrow! All this laundry sucks.

    Haha thankfully BF is helping, but we are both just so tired of getting things ready. It feels like the place or we will never be ready for this huge change! And thank you!

    It's unnecessarily hot in Wisconsin. We live on the lake. It should not be this miserable. I just want to be outside, enjoying summer but instead I'm sitting inside looking at other people enjoying their summer. But I must say, the nursery/spare bedroom looks fantastic and is well organized (for now).

    Not only am I still pregnant, but my body keeps tricking me and getting me excited. Idk how you overdue ladies do it.

    Also about buying a house. We're sort of stalled in our contract and I'm just like, "do you want to sell this house or not?!" Like WHAT IS THE HOLD UP!!!!

    I had class all day today. Came home to DH and his friends playing a hockey video game. House is a disaster and he didn't move anything from the office into the spare room downstairs. Instead he left for a diaper party. He also just told me he has baseball at 2 tomorrow and a softball game tomorrow night. So much for getting anything done this weekend around the house. I'll be stuck to do all the effing cleaning and moving things myself tomorrow.

    Andplusalso- he still hasn't bought the dog food I've been asking him to get since Monday.  Beyond irritated right now

    @jennyleigh16 ugh my MIL constantly wants to be holding my son and I know she is just excited but it gets really annoying. She will just walk up to me while I'm nursing with her arms out like I'm just going to hand him over.

    Havent had my baby yet, but my mil always has comments like how they'll be the favorite grandparents or how her grandchild is going to spend summers with them. It isn't a competition and just because my parents live halfway accross the country doesn't mean they get to be favorites. Its rude and insensitive. I can't even imagine what she's going to be like once baby arrives. 
    I'd be so pissed about that!  Hope they chill otherwise it's time to have an appropriate boundaries chat!

    Anybody else's toddlers or older kids acting out since they brought their LO's home? I feel bad because DS1 probably feels like he's being neglected. But with round the clock nursing/pumping there's not much I can do. Even the pets are acting out and having some accidents! Frustrating.

    @rnyland1 Yeeeeeeesssss! I thought I was the only one who is having this issue. DD1 has also been acting out since the night I went into the hospital for the induction. Those nights when I wasn't home, she would constantly cry looking for me. Then when I get home, she throws tantrums and crying fits at night refusing to go to bed at her normal time, almost like she has all this pent up anger against me for neglecting her since all my time has been spent with the baby. I just try to set some alone time with her so she feels like she has my full attention again.

    What is it with the husbands?! DH insisted I wake him up to do night duty last night. So I did. We went to the store around 6 tonight to get me some boozy drinks and rent some movies to watch together tonight. Drink as much as you want, he says. 

    Guess who fell asleep less than 30 minutes into the first movie and won't wake back up? Not me. I just came out to pump and all I got was a grunt in response.

    @mrsmommya I would have punched him in the junk. I turned 28 this year too and while we didn't do anything crazy, (normally we will go all out, get done up, and just get plastered), I think we at least went to dinner. Wake his ass up and tell him to fuck off.

    @mrsmommya happy birthday! I'm sorry but that's unacceptable. We don't go big on birthdays because we prefer to save money to travel but a card and a nice dinner isn't too much to ask (never mind a simple acknowledgement of the day). Not cool at all DH!!

    @chels0120 wow...can you talk to her about boundaries? I wouldn't even give her a heads up if that happens again. Totally over the line to call your midwife and try to dictate your care plan.

    DH has been off for 2 weeks and has been so helpful since I'm still a little sore and we're both FTP so it's been amazing. He goes back to work tomorrow and it's making me sob like a baby. He's helped me so much I feel like I won't be able to do it all on my own  :/

    Same thing happened with me.  My husband was off two glorious weeks.  I was super emotional about him going back to work and also scared to be alone with the baby.  The good news is we survived!!!!!  And it boosted my confidence to be able to get through the day alone.  Hopefully the same thing will happen to you @AshGee18 . You can do it!!!!!!!

    @chels0120 I'd be so mad too. I know it's important to have supportive members part of your birth team especially when you do an at-home birth. Hopefully she can understand her boundaries a bit better in time for the birth!

    @rnyland1 My 6 year old has had a hard time being in the house since DS arrived. Since he was born, we've had super hot/humid weather, so I don't even get out of the house to take DD to the park or for a walk to get energy out. And her favorite thing to do is to wake up the baby....she is like a little mother hen and she loves DS, but has a hard time understanding he can't stay awake for long right now. DD will be going to a 3 day camp this week so I'm hoping that helps get some energy out.

    @sboston06 @jennyleigh16 @babycakesday I was so floored by it last night be ash for the most part she is wonderful and we have an awesome relationship. I have had a few times when I have had to put my foot down about who is mom when she tries to intervene with my son but I never expected this!!! I'll be having a conversation with her tomorrow because I refuse to ignore this and let it be a cloud over my birth.

    DH got the kids all excited for vacation bible school at church. Not that I don't want them to go but since he works nights all that means is that now when normally I'd be settling DS in for a feeding and some similarlity of a bedtime I have to pack him up and go pick them up. 8 pm doesn't seem late until you have a newborn and have been running on no sleep. 

    Andplusalso he promised to take them so I wouldn't have to make both trips. Guess who went to bed early. Now I get to do make the trip twice. And the kids are so excited I don't have the heart to tell them they can't go. 

    dont really know if this is really that big of a deal or if I'm just so tired I'm extra bitchy

    *****WARNING TRIGGER LOSS MENTIONED*****


    So the last couple months my family has had it rough. My husband and I joined the twinless twins club with our sons after one of our twins passed away from kidney failure at 4 days old this past June. We're devastated and still grieving. No parent imagines having to lay their child to rest. My Bitch comes from a friend of mine who decided to call me after I let out my heart on Facebook. I know it's not the best place to lay it out but I needed to release my grief somewhere, I did it for me. 

    I wrote how heavy I felt and that I would be starting grief counseling, because my thoughts were getting really dark. I'm scared. I was honest, this sucks. While attempting to celebrate the birth of my twins, I'm mourning the loss of one. That's hard. So I'm taking it minute by minute. 

    Anyway, back to my Bitch. This friend called me because "she doesn't want to be attacked" but that it's been two months and I need to get over it. No. No, I do not. I'm trying to deal with this in a healthy way. If it weren't for having to take care of my boys I'd been lost, more so than I currently am. 

    I am trying to accept that people will be insensitive. (At least you have one healthy baby. Are you going to tell his brothers when they get older? What about survivor guilt?) But you cannot expect me to get over losing a child, especially when you've never had one yourself. 

    Maybe I'm over thinking this, but her comment really hurt.

    @RaiEliJusHell1369 - I'm so sorry for your loss and that is crazy! There is no time limit on grief and two months is such a short period of time. I'm can't believe someone said that to you and you are completely justified to feel hurt.

    @RaiEliJusHell1369 I am so very sorry for your loss. I can't imagine how you must feel. I am near tears just thinking about what you are going through. I'm praying for you and your family to heal in whatever way you need to. *hugs*

    @RaiEliJusHell1369. I'm so very sorry for your loss. I cant even imagine how hard it is. 
    I would definitely cut that person out of your life. There is no place for such utter disrespect for how others mourn the loss of their child. You have every right to mourn the way you want and she should respect that and respect you. 
    Again I'm very sorry for your loss. My thoughts go out to you and your family.
