My WTF is to some pants and my thighs. My best friends gave me some maternity clothes over the weekend. I tried on a pair of maternity pants this morning and they wouldn't come up over my thighs!! My best friend is curvy like me so I figured they would fit but no!!! WTF thighs, why do you have to be like that!

@muggle621 - the struggle is real! I tried on a pair of pants yesterday just for shits and gigs... they used to be big on me. I couldn't even get them buttoned. Guess I'm headed to Old Navy this weekend for some new clothes!
So this guy keeps calling the business I work at and is making threats because he's not happy. Now the bank is on high alert and the police have been called. Really dude? Go act like a crazy men elsewhere. I want to go to lunch! WTF >:(
@vflux33 I've been putting it off too. I have a hard time finding pants that fit well when I'm not pregnant let alone now. My SIL brought me a bag of her maternity clothes, which I appreciate, but she and I aren't remotely the same shape so none of them fit me. Let's see how long we can last haha
@skppks - yeah yikes! we literally just had a training a few weeks ago on what to do if we had an active shooter. I'm just praying they find this guy or stop him before he can step foot in here. You should have heard the things he was saying... scary! I'd like to go home now... -_-
Motherhood has 40% off today... free shipping on jeans.
WTF dreams- DH has been having some issues at work last night I dreamt he wanted to move back to our hometown(2,000 people) which I don't want to do and then another where he wanted to go back to school and move us all to Iowa(we used to live there). Then had dreams that I was spotting then bleeding. One of the worst nights sleeps in a while.
WTF to my family. My sister has been dealing with anxiety pretty much on and off since 5th grade. I encouraged her to see a therapist, because she talked to me about how she just feels anxious all the time. And while it isn't impacting her life negatively right now, I see it as something that could in the future. Well, my mom basically told my sister that she was fine and didn't need any help. Oh and that somebody she works with takes an anxiety medication from time to time and my mom doesn't like how it changes that person. And my sister asked my grandma to make a weighted blanket for her (something can help with anxiety too) and my grandma basically called it dumb (not in those actual words). I just wish we were more open about mental health and I wish my mom was more supportive.
End Rant. Follow up: My sister had her second session and says she feels like the techniques she is learning are already helping a bit. Her therapist is big on teaching coping strategies before prescribing anything. I'm just so proud of her for reaching out to somebody. And I'm going to make the blanket for her, though my sewing skills are mediocre at best.

@muggle621 My thighs double in size my last pregnancy I swear. And they aren't small to begin with. Nothing worse than trying on a pair of jeans and not being able to get them up past your knees. Been there. I plan to live a majority of this pregnancy in leggings and workout pants. Haha.
My WTF is me looking like I'm 7 months pregnant already. Not good. Need to get my nutrition in check.
@becausescience aw your sis is lucky to have you! My mom is the same way with those types of things
And yes to the growing thighs. My last 2 pregnancies were fall babies so I got away with lots of summer skirts and dresses. Not looking forward to winter pregnancy in pants!
WTF to DS who is on Day 2 of refusing his afternoon nap. He's just been babbling in his room for the last hour. I'm not going to get him until he's crying :-/
also WTF to the fact that I had to take down all my birthday decorations today. My 29th bday was yesterday and DH was so sweet and crazy over-the-top decorated the downstairs with balloons and streamers and all sorts of signs. It was so cute but taking them down by myself today was slightly depressing.
@becausesciencei I feel so lucky to have grown up in a family that is supportive of taking the right steps to stay mentally healthy, and DH's family is much the opposite. It's hard when loved ones don't recognize how important some of those pieces are. She's lucky to have you!
@kitandcat I feel you. If DS falls asleep in the car for even five minutes he won't take his nap. So I put him in his crib and say he doesn't have to sleep, but he has to rest. Then I listen to him sing Old MacDonald for an hour and a half, but at least I get to lay on the couch and close my eyes.
My WTF is to the hardwood floor refinishing guys. They started today. I thought it would take them three days and then we could move in on Monday. But it turns out they will have to put a second coat of stain on Tuesday, which means we can't move in until next Friday. School (my work and DH's work) starts Wednesday.
so DH called my MIL 2 days ago to tell her the news. he really wanted to... so I caved and said yes. She lives on the opposite side of the country so I'm not worried about her accidently saying something. Our relationship is difficult but friendly and we do get along okay for the most part (though it takes effort on both our parts). That said - she hasn't called or texted to say congratulations. This would be her very first grandchild... one she has been asking for for years ... and she can't even bother to say something to me? Total BS
@crossfitbabybump Yikes! That sounds terrifying! Hopefully he vets no where near your place of work. @bb3vj3n Maybe your husband told her not to say anything, and she took it like don't say anything at all, even to you? Orrrr she's just that type of person. I had a friend say "oh...your third...already?" I wanted to slap her.
So a few months ago a photographer friend said she'd be in town the 15-18 and so I scheduled our family pics with her for the 17th. I have been stressing out about what to wear so we all coordinate and we made a trip into town over the weekend so we would be ready for tomorrow. Meanwhile, I kept seeing posts from her of all the last minute summer things they are doing and it finally dawned on me that they should have already left town. So I scrolled through all our messages looking for the dates she gave me and I am TWO FREAKING MONTHS OFF!!!! WHAT THE EFFFFF!!! Is pregnancy brain real!?? I certainly hope so because it's the only reason I can come up with to justify how idiotic that was of me.
