WTF Wednesday

sparklingdiamond

I wish this board was a bit more active. Though I think I spend more time on it than I should. Especially when I am at work!

viggie17

Haha, me too... I actually have stuff to do and im just way too addicted to my phone right now! My wtf is 1. My stupid dreams... they've just been terrible lately! Jeez brain knock it off already and 2. I am just a bottomless pit! I am shocked I haven't gained weight, I've been so lazy!

danjoly

My wtf goes to my toothbrush! It's a boring one but it's all I can think of for now  
wtf can't I brush my teeth without vomiting after! It kills the purpose and needs me to start all over again!

jenotontx

@danjoly Ugh, yes! It's the toothpaste that makes me really sick right now. 

ngolimento

My WTF today goes to myself.  I cleared it with my boss to take a sick day today.  Did I take it?  Nope.  Because I am dumb.

maureenmce

WTF to the geniuses who decided to close off a major freeway ramp at the height of rush hour to pick up trash on the sides of the ramp???  Turned my 10-15 minute commute into almost 40 minutes!  I would literally pay double the taxes that go to construction if they only worked at night or on off peak hours.

@sparklingdiamond in my experience the board will grow richer in participation as we go on. One time wonders will stop trying to just get attention and the shyer people will come out to play as the chaff fades.

I personally avoid threads that attract the one time wonders, like the U/S thread and Intro thread.  I will scan the U/S thread for people I know, but I don't waste time on the fly-by attention seekers.

@ngolimento Im going to give the AWs and new comers the benifit of the doubt for a few more weeks and then they are going to start getting GIFed. 

ngolimento

Haha I can't stop watching that last gif!  That bear is all "Well if I have to".

sparklingdiamond

That bear gif if awesome!

maureenmce

Add me to the loving the bear gif crowd!  To the point that I kiiiiinda want to go out of my way to be an AW just to get the bear gif!

courtyowl427

@sparklingdiamond, same! I wish I had more to contribute but when I check the boards not moving too much...

My WTF: Lots of big changes coming up at work and everyone is losing their shit. Calm yo' tits. It might suck for a while but everything will be fine. I just hate when people focus so much energy on the negative and not helping move the change forward positively. No one knows I'm KU, and I would normally deal with the bs by having a LARGE glass of wine at night. God, I miss the booze more than I should admit....

jenotontx

Ok, so I think the bear gif should be the first go to for combating the drive bys.

I second the best gif!!  lol. My wtf is that a huge project meeting regarding our department happened yesterday. We found out about the meeting last Tuesday (remember I need 30 days to cancel patients) and I was the only one on, so nobody to cover for me, so our department wasn't represented at all!!

danjoly

My second wtf goes to May18. I can't help but judge The HDBD! Come on! It's bloat belly ladies!!! Are you walking around showing your poop belly to everyone!

pghren

@danjoly ... wait May2018 started a HDBD thread?! Have they lost their collective minds?!

danjoly

@allowachick yup!!! Anything before 12 weeks makes me roll my eyes! Science people!!! Uterus is a pelvic organ until 12 weeks, no matter how many pregnancies!!

*Runs off to May18*

sparklingdiamond

I have to admit, I started taking "bump" pics at 6 weeks with my last pregnancy, but I didn't show them to anyone.  I spent a lot of time and money getting pregnant, I was going to enjoy every second of it and document it! :-p

maureenmce

Lol, wasn't there a whole meltdown about another WAY too early HDBD thread in one of the other birth month groups recently?  I wanna say March?  And yeah, that's nuts!  I mean, they're behind us and my LO is still the size of a sweet pea, haha.  Not bump material yet!

ngolimento

@danjoly bless you for telling us.  This is entertainment you can't buy!  I gotta go admire some bloat!

ETA: a thread started by someone who doesn't even have a username to admire belly fat and bloat.  It's so dreamy!

My eyes just got GINORMOUS reading this, right when my boss walking into my office. I need to take a walk to process the desire to display poop babies. 

sparklingdiamond

@stalkinghorse Ha I love that gif too!

Staahhpp.   

My WTF is my OB. She's the second doc in the office, and I had never seen her before today. By all measurements today, baby was 7w6d, but she put my due date at 7w4d? I know it's only two days, but why? 

maureenmce

@Mattel Is the date she went with based on your LMP?  My OB tends to stick with the LMP EDD unless baby is consistently ahead or behind at ultrasounds (at least more than twice.) 

danjoly

@sparklingdiamond documenting your pregnancy for yourself is Waaaaaaaay different! I saved a picture of my pee stick in my pregnancy album, yup something I peed on!

Nope! If it were based on my LMP I'd be 9w something. I didn't O until CD22, so it's def right on track with when I ovulated but I just thought it was a little odd that she did that. 

danjoly

@Mattel oh I get the feeling!! Every day counts!! Don't bring me backwards for no reasons!

pghren

@Mattel my u/s tech kept mine at LMP because LO only measured 2 days behind ... but came up with an EDD 1 day later than I've been using, so I ignored it! 

psuxray07

I must go check out bump city! lol   I'm out right now, hopefully I can come up with a wtf when I get home

sparklingdiamond

Someone just brought some air freshener or potpourri or something up here and it's making me nauseous blech.

Oh, so weird!  Maybe your OB just got confused?  Maybe ask her about it?  I definitely understand that every day counts for sure!  (Especially since I was induced last time around and that could mean another 2 days you get to hope for labor to come on its own!)

Stuck in the stupid quote box, but you know it'll be one of those that'll be the first to suggest a FB group!

Pretty sure someone did that a while ago and we were all like, are you nuts? 

sparklingdiamond

I must have missed that!
