Monday- 'I hate' post for all!

Dana86

I hate maternity pants! They are not comfortable to me and I have tried a few times at different stages to wear them but I just cant seem to do it. I love my normal jeans.

I hate people who think everything I say is now baby related. Like I can say Im tired and instantly get a response on how thats what happens when you grow a baby. When really no, its what happens when you have to get up at 4am! 

What are your hate moments so far?

I hate when people say I have "blossomed."  This weekend 3 different people said that to me.  Thanks for trying to be nice when you tell me my belly is getting big.  That is what it is supposed to do, but it still doesn't make me feel good.

 And NBR- I hate when people at work heat up really stinky food.  One lady brings steamed broccoli at least once a week.  I love steamed broccoli, but eat it at home.  The whole office does not need to smell like that.

I hate that I have to go back to work on Wednesday.  And I hate that they are forcing me to meet my freshman by making it a mandatory freshman orientation.  Why can't I meet them on Tuesday with the rest of the school?!

I hate unsolicited advice and opinions from friends and family. I do not want to hear about how I am doing something wrong because my pregnancy is different from theirs. I do not want to hear "not all girls like pink". Well, mommy does, so baby's getting a pink room. I do not want to hear a lecture about BFing from a MAN that I JUST met. I do not want to hear unending reviews about certain products and how I should ONLY buy what they bought. I do not want to hear how I need to get rid of the cat because it's bad for the baby. I do not need people criticizing (sp?) my birth plan- especially when they only know it because they were snooping around where they shouldn't have been. I do not want to hear how I am going to have an unhealthy baby because I ate one miniature candy bar- considerably from the person that smoked 2 packs a day while pregnant.

If I want to know what my friends and family think, I will ask. It seems like as soon as that little pink line appears, people think they have the right to squash you with their opinions and judge you if you vary from them in the slightest little bit. I'm sick of it. Sick of it.

Ahhhhh.... I feel better. Thanks!

I too hate maternity pants. They slid down and I'm constantly doing the Chris Farley move trying to keep them pulled up. I hate how I am hungry all the time. And I HATE my work schedule, b/c I almost always feel "in the mood" while I'm at work, and all day all I think about is my super sexy FI, but when I get home to him it's really late and I am too tired, or he is. I just want a normal job where I work regular 9-5 shift not 10-7pm and that doesn't require an hour commute both ways.

Feeling much better now....thanks!

I hate people touching my belly without permission. 

I think that unless you are related to me by blood or are the person (DH) who helped create the baby, that you should ask permission before touching my body. 

In any other circumstances, unwanted physical contact would be called sexual harrassment.  That is all.

I HATE when random strangers want to comment on my stomach. Or worse, touch it! Who are you, and why are you touching me??? UGH!

I hate that I don't get out as much. My friends are still big into the bar scene and drinking and sometimes it's just too hard to be around it. I also am tired by 10pm, so going "out" is hard. I know I just have to call for a lunch date or to go shopping or something, but I hate how lonely I am.

Yes. This too! My MIL made a huge stink about how she was going to be in the delivery room and how I didn't have any say in it. She had seen all her grandkids being born and she wasn't gonna miss this one. She wants to be a ***, I can be a bigger one. I told her- as nicely as I could- that she was not going to be in the delievery room and that the only person allowed was my hubby. That's it, that's all, and there would be no further discussion about it. Well, she kept bringing it up and doing the whole "You don't have a say so" crap. So, when we went for our tour at the hospital, I talked to the nurse about it and they are going to make sure she doesn't come in the room AT ALL. When I am laboring, delivering, recovering. None of it. They said they would advocate for me so I wouldn't have to deal with the drama while I was busy having a baby. Gotta love those nurses, right?

I hate that everyone thinks my life should be "perfect" because I'm expecting a bundle of joy. Don't get me wrong- I am very, very excited about her birth and about becoming a mother, but sometimes I have other problems in my life which get me down.

I hate my appetite.  I am SOOOO freakin hungry, then about 1/2 way through a small serving of anything (like half of a hamburger) I am so full I want to puke.  Ridiculous!!! 

And I hate that I am so ridiculously dumb!  I can't remember things like words, I can't seem to grasp simple concepts sometimes either.  I end up doing simple tasks like 3 times.  Argh!!

My biggest "hate" is people asking, "How are you feeling?" I feel fine! I never had morning sickness and I'm pretty sure at 6 months, I'm not going to get it now (I know it could happen, but probably unlikely). I mean sure, I'm starting to get a little uncomfortable but I'm 6 months pregnant and overall feeling great, how should I be feeling? 

I also hate maternity pants! Everyone says how comfy they are but I'm not seeing it. I have been stubbornly wearing my pre-pregnancy pants, some I can still button, but the ones I can't, I just leave unbuttoned and wear the BeBand and a long tank. I did buy a pair of nice maternity slacks today at Target because I had a coupon and I figure I could get some good use out of them. My other issue with maternity clothes is that for the price, they aren't that cute and I'm only going to be wearing them for a few more months, so what's the point?

I'm actually having an easy go of it so far: no one has given me unsolicited advice (though that might change when I go back to work and am with 15 other women, most of whom have kids), no one has touched my belly that I did not invite to do so, and I love maternity pants and have lots of cute maternity clothes for back to work!

But, I HATE having to answer the question "how are you feeling?"  I know it's kind of the only thing people can think to ask when they are asking how your pregnancy is going, but I'm fine.  I usually answer "fine" to people I don't know, and "fine, but my back hurts" to people I do.  

I HATE sciatica pain, on a related note.

I hate when people say I am "glowing" and "nesting."  I know I look exhausted, double-chinned and like crap in general.  Also, I love decorating and organizing and I've always done it so the fact that I now need to do it to get ready for our little guy doesn't mean I'm all of a sudden nesting. 

Wow....bitter much, huh?

This, this 1000 times THIS!!! I can't STAND it!!! DH has a buddy that comes over and hangs out with him a few times a week down in the "man cave." I can't stand the guy as it is, but every time he comes over the first words out of his mouth are, "Hey Melis, how are you feeling?"  I seriously want to scream every time he asks. People that I don't see often don't bother me because that is natural. But people I see often, good lord, STFU!!!!

I asked DH if it would be rude to put a sign on the door to the house that says, "Before you ask, Melissa feels:" and then have various moods or feelings I could be going through and put a marker next to how I feel. Man I would love to do that.
