Why do people ask what you need for the baby, and then go out and get whatever they feel like getting anyway?
I'm trying to not sound ungrateful, because our friends, family and co-workers have been so generous and have bought up at least half the stuff on our registries. But I had the most baffling conversation this weekend with an older generation relative.
Her: We're so excited about the baby! Tell me what you need. My husband and I want to get you guys something.
Me: You're so sweet to offer! We are all set though, we have more than enough.
Her: No, I insist. Babies always need something. What can I get you?
Me: We have one registry online and one in a store.
Her: Oh yes. I saw those. I didn't care for anything on there.
Me: (at this point is where I fall into baffled silence and try to figure out what to politely say) ... That's ok. Like I mentioned, we have everything we need.
Her: You can always use diapers. I will get you diapers.
Me: Great! Those are on the online registry, they're called "Thirsties".
Her: (laughing) Oh honey you've got to be kidding. No I mean real diapers. You'll get tired of those old fashioned ones quick. Get with the times, you can throw away diapers now!

So yeah, that's pretty much how it went. She's getting us diapers. Diapers we don't plan on using.

I feel your pain. I now have a car seat that doesn't work for either of our cars that I may not be able to return.

Can you tell the gift giver that the car seat doesn't work in either car, and that it needs to be exchanged? Maybe they'll give you the receipt?

I'm letting DH fight that battle. It's his sister and she's not exactly my biggest fan.

I've officially hit the afternoon wall and am falling asleep at my desk

Oh where to start... I didn't sleep at all last night, or any other night for the past week and I'm freaking exhausted.

My kiddos at work were being brats and I just didn't have the patience today, so the last one of the day got cancelled and I'll see him another day this week. Worst speech therapist ever, flame away.

Chick Fil A gave me pickle even though I said no pickle please!!

I have some comments about others posts but I can't remember who posted everything. My H always feels the dishes need to be in the dishwasher until they're 100 dry, apparently towels are useless. I also have been prepared for labor by pooping, it's been miserable. And little nugget ? Im so sorry about your H. It wouldn't be easy at any time but especially now, i can't imagine what you must be going through.

If my mom buys baby girl ONE MORE pink 0-3 month sized onesie I'm going to punch her. First of all - I HAVE onesies!!!! I have like 8 million of them leftover from DS. I do not care if they are blue and green and orange and whatever.

Second of all - Do they ALL have to be pink?? If I promise to put a bow on baby girl's head can you please let me dress her in something OTHER than pink??

Third - I think I officially have more 0-3 month sized articles of clothing than there are days in 0-3 months. : I have a washing machine, mom. Enough already!!!

The way my BIL treats my MIL pisses me off to no end. He is disrespectful and whines more than any person I have ever met. I am trying to figure out how SO and his sister can be the way they are and BIL is so biitchy. Yes, I said biitchy. Your mom said "no." You have a job, don't berate her about money. They have money for their bills and not very much wiggle room. They got you a car. It isn't their fault that you didn't take care of it. You have known for months that your friends were going to the beach, you could have saved money to go. Your mom told you months ago that she didn't have the money. Sorry you don't want to be responsible for yourself. Tough shiit.nbsp;Is it ok for me to go all kinds of rage on him? Or at least smack him up the side of the head?

ETA: If SO tells me not to worry about money one more time, I will choke him. Same goes for insurance. Yes I do need to be on DHHR's . Yes we need to find a peditrician but we also need to have the insurance in order to make sure that we don't have to pay out of pocket.

DH came home early and was mad at me because he came home before I did, even though I didn't even know he would be there. Then he stomped around growling about how he hates his job and we never should have moved to this country (I am so tired of hearing this that I just don't say anything anymore, which isn't any worse than trying unsuccessfully to help him feel better). He was doing passive-aggressive cooking and cleaning (refusing all help but slamming things and looking at my slow-moving bulk angrily and sighing a lot).

Meanwhile I am EXHAUSTED. Walking for five minutes has been tiring me out. I can't focus on anything (no DH, I do not want to look at this complicated graph of GDPs around the world so that I know what you're talking about with regard to Belarus and Estonia--please just summarize it for this exhausted pregnancy brain kthx. No DH do not show me another, more complicated graph to explain the first graph).

Now that I'm sitting a lot by necessity, I have lots of time to fixate on things, like whether they'll suddenly decide to treat my mildly-impaired-glucose-tolerance L&D like an actual GD L&D and induce me (they're very flaky), or whether I have a totally undetected case of placenta accreta. Both of these are because of an awful pregnancy book my sister recommended (it sux!! What was she thinking?! It's basically nonstop Gloom And Doom), which I think I should have stopped reading an hour ago.

Also, I got my hair cut and washed today, and it cost a whopping $30 with the tips. DH knows this because I've been getting my hair cut at this place (the cheapest place around) for two years. I get three haircuts a year FFS (I've got long hair so it just needs to be neatened up every long while). DH asked me how much I spent and freaked out and said, "why is it so expensive??!" Answer: "BECAUSE I'M FEMALE!" He just shook his head in disbelief. He gets his hair cut for $6 in Chinatown, because he's a guy AND because he's got the right hair for the expertise of the hair cutters there, which I don't. And then I'm just waiting for it to sink in that I bought nail polish (I can't control my huge slow body but I CAN paint my nails, LOL), because he's going to be upset about that, even though I already told him. The same nail polish he was ready to buy me the next time we saw it, though that was then, when he was in a good mood. Sigh...
