    I am still really mad at my grandma. She came to visit me in the hospital after DS was born. let me just say that i was in hard labor for 24 hours and ended up with a c-section. she took pictures of me when i was in my hospital bed, printed them off, and came back the next day to show them to me.

    in one of the pictures i was extremely bloated, and looked awful. i was shocked and said "oh, my..." and she said "yeah, maybe next time you feel like eating you should look at this picture." i couldn't believe she would say that to me. and not to be petty, but she really shouldn't talk. she has a lot of extra junk in her trunk.

    Oh my! My jaw dropped when I read that. I would be mad too. Didn't she think you being 9 months pg had a little something to do with the bloat. Some people!

    Wow, what a bittch.  I'm sorry, your grandma is a biitch.  Ignore her mean a$$.  

  • JD- You're not a whore. There is nothing wrong with that and it does not make you whore. It is a dumb AE and I am sure their closet is not pretty either. There is someone out there that calls me names like that and she had to get a paternity test for her baby. So trust me it was probably just a way to make themselves feel better. Everyone has something.

    Tricia I am so sorry that happened to you. I was in a bad relationship with an ex always trying to get me to quit my job , I never did but was close. I know now it was a control tactic. :( I agree with Gram, there is a way to get out you just have to find it.

    That is awful, I am so sorry.

    My Dad's mom always pulls crap like this too and she has no room to talk. It makes me never want to talk to her. In fact I guess this is my FFFC. I am so sad I lost my awesome grandmother I miss her everyday. My dad's mom ugh, I barely talk to her. She does all kinds of awful manipulative things and always has something nasty to say about my appearance. 

  • I am pissed at DH for making me feel guilty about having to have surgery even though he says don't feel guilty and stop apologizing.  But how can he expect me to not feel guilty when I say "The surgery was unavoidable, I can't help it" He replied "I know but just no more surgeries no more illnesses" in a smart ass tone, like I can control it.  I also super annoyed lately with his know it all attitude and freak out fits over stupid little Sh!t. 
  • I have a huge pile of papers to file at work and they have been here over a week. I already put them in order, I just have to actually file them. I hate filing and I would rather bump, so they are still sitting here. Whenever someone walks by my office I pick them up and pretend like I  am doing something with them.

    In my defense, I got a "promotion" when I came back from maternity leave, but they didn't get a replacement for my position (I used to file and answer the phones, now I'm the HR person). So really I am doing both jobs for the same amount of money.

  • DS starts daycare in 10 days for ten months. While I am extremely upset to leave him during the day, I am sctually looking forward to not having to put him down for naps. I know he will probably have to cry some there, but I have been at my last straw with these 1.5 hour pre-napping sessions with him.

    I think I would probably feel differently if it were going to be long term. But since it's only for four months, I'm kinda ready for a breakEmbarrassed

    Your husband sounds like a piece of work. I would be beyond pissed if my DH made me feel bad about an unavoidable surgery.

    When I was pg, money was super tight (still is actually). I made most of my clothes strech for as long as I could b/c we couldn't afford for me to get new clothes. My grandma and mom took me shopping too and bought stuff. One day I really needed some new shirts so I shopped on the clearance rack and got 3 shirts for $20. Dh said something about how much is sucks to be wasting money on clothes I wouldn't be able to wear in a few months. I blew up and he never made a comment about that again. I was so upset about not being able to have cute maternity clothes and he made that comment about 3 shirts. Ugh!

  • This makes me feel selfish, but it still pissed me off. MIL stopped by the other night to see DS. My BIL and SIL are having a baby in the fall. We were talking about an upcoming shower for them, and MIL said "So-and-so is giving them a crib and bassinet. So-and-so is giving them a high chair. And of course they'll get all of your DS's clothes and things." Excuse me, what?

    They married young and spent several years as poor college students after that. Everyone always gave them things (even cars), and even though they are not hurting for money now, everyone still sees them as these poor college kids.

    I would absolutely pack up everything of DS's if they had fallen on hard times and needed help. We plan on getting them a nice gift, and I would definitely loan them some of DS's newborn things if they wanted. But I'm not shipping off all (MIL emphasized all) of DS's clothes and things when they are capable of providing for their own baby. I feel like I'm going to get flamed for this but whatever.

  • I've got a good one, but it'll have to wait till next week. I'm out the door for our MI trip and won't be here to respond. I'm such a tease :)

      no flames from me, you shouldn't feel obligated or pressured to give away your DS's things.

    ITA! I am going through something similar. My cousin is pg. They are very well off and already have a little girl. They found out this baby is a boy. My aunt told my mom to have me pack up all DS's clothes. Um, if I was done having kids I probably would (I would rather sell them at a consignment shop). But, DH and I want at least 2 more kids. I am saving everything until we are done. If my cousin asks, I will just tell her I'm saving them.

    thanks. :) i could go on all day about this lady. DS spent his first week of life in the NICU, hooked up to monitors and had an IV and all that jazz. Grandma came to see him ONCE in his room, and refused to hold him or take a picture of him because he "looked scary." this really pissed me off, on top of all the other rude things she says.

    so we don't go visit her very often. every time she sees DS now he cries and screams and reaches his arms back out to me. she gets frustrated and says things like "you know if you brought him to see me more often he wouldn't act like this. he doesn't know me." then she brings up her great niece's baby, and how he crawls and how he has 3 teeth and he's only 6 months, to try to hurt me.

    one day she's going to piss me off so bad that i'm not going to talk to her anymore. i don't want this to happen because i know how i'll feel if she dies and things are still the way they are now. :sigh: thanks for letting me vent. feels good to get this off my chest.

  • When we stopped nursing DD started taking a bottle at night and we got into a bad habit...well we've spent the last two or three weeks trying to break it. She's slept really well for about a week and a half and was up from 1-3 off and on last night. She woke up at 3 and at 4:30 was still fussing while we kept going in there once in a while. I finally gave in at 4:30 and gave her a bottle. Yes, she's over a year now. I don't even regret it, she went back to sleep and we got a little rest.

    I hate when people make me feel bad about giving her milk at night, but I do believe she is old enough to go without.

    Hey, she's the one effing it up, not you.  If she died today, you'd have not one thing to feel bad about.  She chose to be a bitter old lady.  You tried to be nice.

    Don't let her give you her bag of shiit to hold.  That's on her.

    Oh, I would be pissed too.  Who is she to tell you what you're going to do with your child's things?  I'd tell her that you're saving and that you got them a nice gift.  

    I'm tired of grown people treating their family members like children and telling them what they'll be doing.  No thanks.

  • imagejamie4duke:
    That whateverb!tches ae called me a wh0re because my girls have two different dads (although DH adopted Teagan, since her biological father terminated his rights).  It really bothered me because it is something that I never want people to think that about me.  It was the first time my e-feelings were hurt and I hate it.  Although there are certain people on here that I feel like I am really close to so if they ever thought badly of me, I would be pretty upset.

    I guess they think that anyone who remarried and had another kid (like my dh) is a whoore too.  Confused

    I'm pretty sure you are one of the least whorish girls around here.

  • this is not cool at all.  these are your children we are talking about!  i don't think i could even look at her it would make me so mad.

    I had a dream a few nights ago that DS#2 was born without eyes! It was scary and in the dream I remember thinking that he was a monster and how could I love him?

    I think this is my subconcious worrying about things being wrong with him. The dream made me sad though.

    Oh, what a terrible dream :( Obviously, it's not hard to figure out where that came from.  DS #2 will be perfect and beautiful, just like DS #1 is. I think you are doing a great job. You will love your new baby no matter what.

    And congrats on the decreasing seizures! :)

  • My parents are going through a horrible divorce, and my dad has made it very easy for me to not want to talk to him. Last night he threatened me with "it would be bad if something happened to your car" because I still owe him $50, and he's blown all the money he has. Even though I told him I was paying him back today. I've used my knowing of lots of deputies to scare him, even more than was probably necessary, because he feels the need to bully everyone around. I've had several deputies go over there when he does stupid stuff, so that he knows I'm not playing around. I also had my mom file charges against him because he conveniently "doesn't know" where my mom's medication is, and she's slowly getting sick. I just wish something would happen that would give him the slap in the face he needed.

    I was supposed to take my mom to work this morning, and I usually use DD as my alarm clock, and she didn't get up until 11. But I'm kind of glad someone else had to take her, because she lives on the other side of town, and my 28mpg car has had to be filled twice this week.

  • DH's grandma is sick, probably on her last leg and the family is caring for her at home. ?Last night MIL was going to stay the night, so she told everyone. ?We called around 11 and found out MIL went home. ?HOME! ?DH called her and said this is unacceptable and she hung up on us. ?We were freaking out (we live an hour away) and calling all the family. ?That was neglect last night and I seriously feel sick when I think about what happened. ?Needless to say, today a lot of changes are being made... we may even take her to the hospital, nursing home or have a care taker come to the home (although they are not always on time either). ?That's where DH is right now. ?This whole situation just sucks :(?

    Hahaha I said the same thing at 7 months....Now I am more excited than ever for our theme!  Give it time...give it time.

    I've also done this (and he knows about it).  I bought the razor with the trimmer on the other end.  It works great

  • My aunt invited me, DH, and kids to her summer home for a vacation but she didn't invite my sister and her DH and kids (my kids are so much easier and more mellow than hers).  The plan is to sneak away and sneak back without them knowing so their feelings wouldn't be hurt.  My aunt will be at my niece's 1st b'day party on Sunday (days before we are supposed to leave) and the vacation is sure to come up at some point.  I know I should just tell my sister that we got invited, but I don't want to.  I'd rather risk getting caught with the small possibility of getting away with it and her never finding out.
