Re: WTF Wednesday - 6/13/18
Wtf to myself. I forgot to put on a liner and now I’m scared I’ll end up wetting through my clothes.
Wtf body, can we please go back to a regular BM schedule? I’m so tired of these poop games. I’ll go days without then multiple in a day.
Wtf H for putting the clean laundry in the bassinet. It has officially moved from the living room to the bassinet grr
Today just isn't my day... Hear DH's alarm go off at 730...but then nothing from upstairs while I'm on my meeting... then I have to poo finally and still hear nothing from DH but DD is calling for someone from her crib.... then I proceed to get her ready by myself, get me ready, and he's hiding under the covers the whole time...then as I'm getting her out the front door the storm door snags my sleeve - 2" cut/skin down my elbow and I almost fall/drop DD on cement stairs but just tweak my bad back instead... I'm a saint for not dropping F bombs if I say so myself...worst I said was crap this morning which of course little parrot repeats but I'll live with it. Now I'm back in bed to work but he's working from bed next to me so it's going to be a long ass day....
WTF to naked toddler boners. WTF to naked toddlers in general, I can’t keep clothes on this kid in the house.
WTF to myself, I made the mistake of making cinnamon rolls for breakfast. They were delicious, don’t get me wrong. But a big mistake. Now the kid is wired and running circles around me, balls in the wind. Days like this make me happy this next one is a girl.
WTF to H for being in a bad mood this morning. I don’t like when we get snippy with each other ( we have only ever fought once in 9 years). He is frustrated that the cleaning lady will be here and he will need to shower after his workout before class.
@nimmle I am convinced that technology advancements leave printers behind on purpose. It's such a simple concept but I swear even in 2018 we just cannot get it right.
Majoy WTF to DH. Last night I was wiped after the newborn class, so he starts playing his game, totally ok, I was reading articles on my phone but then I got tired and fell asleep on the couch. He wakes me up at 11:45pm(!!) And I'm clearly pissed because I'm startled awake, so his response to that is...go to bed upstairs and fall asleep!! I woke up again at 1:15am...went to bed and could not sleep until 2:30am...my shoulder and side were all messed up from the couch sleeping...baby was unhappy with my on my right side...lower back was bugging me if propped up on pillows...
Currently 8am, he is STILL sleeping, and he also woke me up several times with his snoring...I'm telling you the twin bed we prepped for my mom may become his home soon!!
He told me he broke it last night with the look of sheer terror in his eyes. He was trying to pee in the tub while holding it and was squeezing it too tightly
I need to catch it on video so I can embarrass the crap out of him when he’s older
But do you all want a good freak out story- if you have time...
So 2 months after I had my son- I was changing him. The sun was coming down from the window and laying upon my baby- how cute.... but then I noticed that he had sparkles in his downstairs area... I leaned and close and I saw HAIR!!!?!!! I called my husband over and asked if that was normal on boys... he didn't know... so we called the Dr.- who asked us to come in with him. She looked him over and said it wasn't normal- but as long as it didn't get longer or darker we were fine.... a month later- YES it was longer and darker?! Call the dr again- we go in.. she says as long as he doesn't get Body Odor- we are fine.. but I am like how are we fine my baby has legit pubic hair, and he only 4 months old!!!!? A few days later the Dr called us and she said she had been researching- the hair would disappear in a few months.. which it did! But the reason for the unnaturally early Pubic Hair growth... apparently I had such strong "female" hormones during pregnancy/labor... that His body absorbed them and the only way to "expel" them was through "early" puberty!?!
So back to my baby's boy parts- I still over inspect them/worry about them due to my early incident of craziness!
WTF DD. You're 4 years old and fully capable of doing potty completely on your own. I keep telling her that when her sister comes I can't be helping her in the bathroom all the time. She just spent 20 minutes getting hysterical and crying hard in the bathroom because I refused to wipe her. She said I was a bad mommy.
Meanwhile, my 2yo DS was teaching himself how to zip up his hoodie... Something DD needed help with earlier today.
This girl is going to make having a newborn very difficult on me. I expect lots of disappointment and possible resentment coming from her after the novelty of a new baby wears off.
@jbosch30 at the newborn class yesterday they showed a picture of a baby with a legit hairy back! it was so odd! it was A LOT of lanugo. They did say it falls off. Did not know about the pubic hair though...
@jbosch30 the hormone thing is totally legit. Didn't happen to us but I did read with DD that newborn girls can even have menstrual-like spotting because of the mom's hormones in her body. Crazy!
My kid loves playing with his penis during diaper changes and baths, and like @flockofmoosen3 said, he is not circumcised and loves to pull on his foreskin. Sometimes when I am wiping his penis during diaper changes he gets a tiny bit erect and I'm like oooops. Shrug.
DS was born hairy and he’s still hairy. He has a nice small mustache and visible fine back hair. He’s a legit little man! His forehead was hairy at birth that his wrinkles looked like second eyebrows.

ETA- I had conveniently forgotten about little boy boners. Not super excited about them again
WTF to my body why can't you sleep?! ugh almost excited for newborn insomnia just so I can have my body back haha
to focus on the part of his job that generates the most income is getting to me.
wtf sitter (again!) with not changing DSs diaper too often like I’ve asked multiple times! His scrotum skin gets super red and irritated. He peed himself during nap time and had a full diaper last Friday at pick up. I’m getting tired of being nice about it. Just change the freaking diaper every 2-3 hrs how hard is that?!
Yeah im on the last straw with the diaper thing. I just now i approached it by asking to put diaper cream and giving her more diapers so he can stay dry because “the heat and wetness” is probably making it worse. Hope she got the clue.
Thank you for the toddler bone stories, I needed a good giggle.
WTF goes to my inlaws (sil, her husband, and bil). We backed out of moving into sil and her husband rental lastnight because it has caused me such extreme stress that I am a mess. I knew going into this that my bil (dh & sil's younger brother) would be unreliable. However, this shit's over the top. Bil has NO drive unless he is told he is being kicked out and then does the bare minimum to get by. The house needs a lot of work. A lot. Tented for termites, vermin, bugs, etc. It needs a new paint job, new electrical, new kitchen, etc. I have felt like we've been forcing this to happen from the get go, yet still go with it. My sil and her husband refused to come help with doing anything to the house. They only agreed to pay for paint, paint supplies, new window screens, electrical outlets that need to be replaced, and flooring. My mom, stepdad, and brother went to the house over the weekend to help with different things. My mom was LIVID. So livid she didnt talk to me the rest of the weekend. My brother rarely voices his concerns about things. He wont stop voicing his concern with us living there. So we made the decision to back out lastnight. My sil said if we dont move in, she will sell the house. Fine. However, now sil isnt talking to me. What the actual fuck...
My WTF is going to make you all laugh probably. WTF body why are you so tired, why couldn’t you have the energy of the second trimester. I wake up every morning wondering if I really need my job. Lol I do! I just keep waking up later and later, thank goodness so far my boss hasn’t commented. Once I get to work I make it work, it’s just getting out of bed, getting dressed, doing my hair (pony tail all week this week) taking the subway for 40 mins and walking to my job another 15 mins that kills me. I know I’ll be happy I stayed active this whole time once LO gets evicted and I work on losing weight but man the struggle is real.
@zande2016 glad you're considering a heart to heart, it's probably not a bad idea to share how you feel and get him aligned with the job thing so he doesn't get taken advantage of and can focus on his actual job. @wildtot seriously this diaper thing needs to stop it seems obvious he isn't being changed enough.
@zombiehoohaa fwiw I think you made the best decision. Moving so close to your due date would have been fine for a nice place but not for a place that needs so much work. And you would bring baby girl into an environment that could have potentially been filled with drama. Sorry sil isn't talking to you but shells have to get over it. I know this was an opportunity to save some money but sometimes when you turn your back on something new opportunities suddenly pop up. Hugs!
