Monday Bitchfest

Anything you want to bitch or complain about? Put them here.

Flame free is, of course, never guaranteed.

Just got back from a week long vacation and I just want to go back home. Nothing fits or is comfortable anymore. I am seeing the numbers move up on the scale but no real prego belly to show for it. 15 weeks in and I just want to hide until this is all over. When am I going to start enjoying this pregnancy!!! Ugh.

ziggy903 · August 2013

Sorry if I stole anyone's thunder by starting this, but I really need it today.

I've been dealing with a stupid summer cold for over two weeks. And I didn't sleep well last night, and now I'm 98% sure I have a stupid ear infection. Like... I mentally prepared myself for morning sickness and food aversions, and I know I'm blessed and grateful to not have to deal with HG... But no one told me that I'd be so much more likely to get infections. Last time I had an ear infection my ear had all but fully closed up, and I had to have a steroid shot and pills to force it open, along with antibiotic drops. I'm terrified that will happen again because I don't think steroids are safe right now and I don't want to miss a week of work like I did last time.

My stepson's YMCA program ended last Friday and he doesn't start school until Wednesday. He's staying home alone (he's 10 1/2) and he called his mom to come over to my house on her lunch break. I'm pissed off because I don't want that woman in my house while DH and I are not there. And to top it off she's covered in poison ivy and I don't know if I'm allergic. Now I REALLY don't want her there. I'm in a baaaaad mood now.

We were at our family camp yesterday and our neighbors had their jet ski out and offered it up for us to use, but I can't when pregnant :-( they are really fun!

ChinaDoll87 · August 2013

I have a 4 hr "strategy meeting" during my lunch period. They won't be providing food, ill have to take an early lunch. This will surely be a pissing match between all the middle aged men I work with and a total waste of time I'm sure

rachelemark · August 2013

DH has been super restless at night, and he keeps turning our comforter the wrong way, so our toes are sticking out of the blankets. I woke up cold and angry, and then he started cuddling me. Lately I just can't be cuddled when I sleep. I just laid there fuming and thinking about how badly I wanted to elbow him in the stomach. By the time he rolled over I was wide awake and couldn't relax for an hour.

Now I'm at work and feeling no motivation. And wanting caffeine.

margarita777 · August 2013

I just want to go home and take a nap. Think I will take one in my car at lunch today.

coralreefmom · August 2013

1) my kitten thinks it's play time when I'm sleeping and will bring her toy mice into bed and drop them on my face until I wake up... I woke up with 4 toy mice in bed this morning
2) I apparently triggered fraud detection on my checking account by going to a local donut shop... a whole $1.50... oy

I can totally relate. I am exhausted today and cannot get my shit together. I have a pile of work on my desk and just can't find the motivation to get anything done.

ahare2009 · August 2013

I had some brown spotting/discharge when I wiped last night after using the bathroom and again this morning. I called the doctor's office and he will see me, but I have to wait until 2:45, because of my work schedule. We are interviewing a potential candidate (by my recommendation) today and I am one of the interviewers. WTH? I personally know this person and was the one who passed her resume on. Why do I have to interview her? I was scheduled to speak with her 10:45-11:30. It is now 11:00 and I am still waiting for the previous person to stop.

Btwilhelm · August 2013

My boyfriend says I don't look pregnant, when clearly I have a bump. My stomach use to be flat, not anymore! People who don't know I am pregnant have figured it out. Thanks for basically saying I've look pregnant before I was pregnant. Which in my book means you've always thought I was fat.

Amyjoy1972 · August 2013

My co worker asked how many weeks I was when I told her 13 weeks 3days she looked me up and down then said you sure your having twins.

cmsdouglas · August 2013

I'm working in my new classroom for the first time today and the previous teacher left it completely trashed. I spent a long time pulling trash out of the cabinets in the lab tables and now I have to sort through all of his binders and mess to decide what I need to keep and what I don't need to keep. Super fun!

On a good note, at least he left all of his curriculum folders so that I can see what he did last year...

pinkgrl84 · August 2013

My DH is starting to get mad that I am never in the mood for sex. It's turning into fights but I just can't seem to get in the mood. Why can't he understand this?? Maybe it's the hormones but these arguments make me want to cry and aren't productive and don't change anything!

I really want chili (and only my homemade chili), but DH has a weird thing about only eating chili during fall/winter. I think I might make some anyway and just freeze the leftovers.

I've been craving it too! I'd normally eat it in the summer but it is so hot and dry here right now that I'm not up for it. But it makes me really ready for football to start because that's the perfect excuse for chili, regardless of the weather!

cjmFeb2014 · August 2013

I ate a bunch of lasagna last night and feel super bloated. Mehhhhh.

Still have a bit of a headache, and it was worse yesterday, and I drink copious amounts of water so it can't be from dehydration, and I don't want to take anything for it since I'm still 1st tri, and I hardly ever get headaches so whine whine poor me.

I called the dentist this morning to schedule a cleaning because it's been over six months since my last. Bitch who answers the phone tells me that it's "not part of the treatment plan" and she needs to talk to the dentist himself to get it approved. Since when?! I know what my dental coverage is, lady, and isn't a cleaning every six months pretty standard across the board?! The fuck? So now I'm waiting for a call back.

Bitch whine blah.

PeachLove25 · August 2013

Federal Government HR is incompetent and my new job start date got pushed back another two weeks. Aparently the HR director who has to approve my salary is on an 18 day vacation and no one else can do his job. Awesome.

I'm trying to embrace two more weeks off- but it's frustrating because I know I'll be telling them soon that I'm going on maternity, so I'd rather work now when I can.

Poor DH comes home to a house full of Pinterest projects every day... Not to mention I don't want to cook right now, so he wonders what I do all day! Lay in bed and bump... Totally acceptable, right?

I made chili on Thursday anyway

It was almost 80, but it was still super delicious and worth it!

oscarkat · August 2013

My husband went to work for my friends parents almost 4 years ago. Good salary, and profit sharing on his jobs. At the time, he was about to go into business on his own, but they wanted to hire him with profit sharing so that they could step back. And they have, spending 6 of the last 12 months at their home in Florida.

He's also more than doubled the amount of work they do yearly.

He has yet to get a DIME of the profit, just kept getting told the account was out of town, then they would go away for 2 weeks that would turn into 4 months. He was supposed to have the final sit down today to sign off and have a check processed, and she didn't show up because they have a golf tournament this afternoon and couldn't get ready in time to go to the office.

Husband is pissed, I'm beyond livid and ready to slap a bitch. This is no small amout. We are waiting on over $150,000. This was the reason that I quite working to stay home with the kids, and we've been struggling so hard for the last 2 years because of this bullshit game she's playing. Not impressed today.

keags5496 · August 2013

The fact that I have to go back to work in two weeks is making me sad. I realize that I have no right to complain because I'm lucky enough to have my summers off, but i reeeeallly just want to stay home.

bb90 · August 2013

Friend is due a week after me. We talk and kind of compare how things are going for us its nice to talk. Anyway discussing when we were going to make our news public I told her after my 12 week appointment which will be today. She told me she was also waiting until 12 weeks. Instead she announced yesterday. Then, she texts me and says you aren't mad are you? I honestly wouldn't be to upset, but she is always doing things like this. I am really glad she will be in MO for the next few months so I don't have to deal with her for awhile.

mabjcb19 · August 2013

I just got home yesterday from a vacation with DH and his family. It was fun, it was great, we do it every year. Last week was the first full week where I felt pretty much normal and could eat well. So I took advantage. Overall I don't think I ate a ton extra but I kept meals small and snacked in between meals a lot. (I got home and weighed myself and still wound up down a pound.) But I was getting seriously pissed at MIL's comments about my eating. Lots of "hungry AGAIN?" or seeing me eat and saying "nom nom nom" and laughing. She'd tell everyone we saw how I have been eating constantly. Well one night where I didn't snack after dinner before bed (bedtime was like 2am), I quick ate something because I knew what could happen, well I got sick anyway, a lot, and we were camping so I did it outside where she could definately hear me. Her comments were less frequent after that but it still bugged me.

I'm in the same boat! I think it's so weird that DH thinks chili is only a fall/winter food...where does that come from?

Tjohnson781 · August 2013

Dear Pregnant Self,

I need you to get your emotions under control. Make a decision and stick with it and for the love of everything holy, STOP CRYING! You are behind at work... Get it done. Your house is a mess... Clean it up. You are still confused about this bullshit relationship... Figure it out.

It's time to put on your big girl panties, pull them up and get your entire life all the way together.

Sincerely,

Your single moment of clarity.

My friends are all saying this!!!! I know they're just trying to be nice, but I just want them to shut the f*** up! You all saw what I looked like at the beginning of the summer. I don't look pregnant, I just look like I've enjoyed too many beers!

My dh is the exact same way. I have been fighting the craving for weeks now, but made a whole pot of my own last night. I shall eat chili for days! Maybe I like it better this way...

Livley · August 2013

I have shingles in my neck, can't go to my first antenatal appointment or ultrasound because I'm contagious, will miss out on NT scan because im already 13+2, the antivirals make me want to puke, and my neck is in agony (inside and out) but can't go to chiro either.

At least I am forced to have 5 days off work. Thank goodness for the silver lining!

TicaAngel00 · August 2013

I have a Buyer on a deal that is being lazy and an a-hole to boot. He sends me money and then expects me to know off hand how much he wired on Friday all the while giving me attitude for not knowing this off the top of my head. Things I wanted to say, but bit my tongue instead, "Oh yes sir, I just picked up your phone call on 1 ring and I know everything about your file off the top of my head without having it in front of me or having opened up your file on my computer screen, especially when I have 30 other files on my desk. Go F- yourself, buddy! You should keep track of the money you sent me and stop being so cottamn lazy! Open up the closing statement I sent you and do the math calculation. Or is that not part of your job with handling 7 figure funds?"

Other than that dips-t, my day's been pretty well for a Monday!

I am sorry, I can relate to this-- mine is acting the same way. He thinks he's a special snowflake that "needs" it more than most people, and it's not acceptable to compare ourselves to other couples whose sex lives decrease during pregnancy. He told me he's okay with once a week (attention down there, not necessarily having to be sex) and, side note, I think he's still being selfish. But we had sex on Saturday morning and he was bugging me last night to go at it again, then pouted when I said no. He's driving me nuts! Definitely not acting like husband of the year. And I'm with you on how the arguments don't accomplish anything. RAWR.

Ladies I feel you on this like you wouldn't believe. My SO gets pissy when it's been two days! I so wish I could make him feel what I'm feeling for the next six months so he'd just shut it.

applejacks3232 · August 2013

I just want to know if I'm going to get to leave this hell hole of an Island before I have to give birth. I do NOT want to deliver here again and my due date is 2 weeks from when we are supposed to PCS and we don't have orders yet. I'm kind of being a brat about it, but my last delivery here was so horrible, I just want to be home AND if I deliver here, we will get extended until the baby's 2 month check up and I don't know if I can handle that. 4 years too many here.

Winnieella · August 2013

You can flame me for this if you want...I'd rather not be because it's causing me to cry.

We have to move, and am having the hardest time finding a place to live that accepts dogs. I refuse to give up my dog...I don't want to at all. But now H says since we are on a time crunch ( H got a new job in a new city and we need to be moved in, in a week an a half) we may have to think of getting rid of our dog. I'm crying over here at the thought of it and I don't know what to do.

All the places that allow dogs that are within our budget were all signed up today by other people before our appointments to look at them.

calimama2007 · August 2013

I tried to "kick" my kids outside to play in the backyard while I watched through the kitchen window so that I could clean and get dinner going.

The girls spent 75% of the time bitching at each other and fighting over the crappier scooter, while neither one would ride the better quality one WTF.

Thank you. my heart is breaking. There is one place that we contacted which allows pets. We are just waiting to hear back.

I'm so sorry you're even having to entertain the idea. I know how heartbreaking it is to have to rehome a furbaby. Fingers crossed you will hear good news soon.

I'm really sick of my friends who are nowhere close to having babies telling me what to eat when I'm pregnant. If I don't want to eat unpasteurized cheese and raw beef while I'm pregnant then I won't. If you choose to do that when your pregnant that's between you, your doctor, and your baby. You don't have a human growing in you so shut up.

I totally agree with this. I had a friend send me an article on why there isn't enough research to stop drinking caffeine and booze and that I should do my own research. Did she not think I did research? Sure lots of the thing lower a 1/8000 chance to 1/7000 but that is enough for me and has nothing to do with her! You can eat queso fresco when your pregnant and I won't say a word. Your choice so let me have mine! she was trying to be helpful, but goodness.

It is so good to hear I am not alone in this! I feel like there are so many posts about ladies who can't keep their hands off of their men but I am the opposite. I just don't want to be touched...

I have been making sure my DH is well ummm satisfied :-) without sex yet he is still complaining! GRRRRRR I just want to not feel pressured for sex!

Edit: Sorry meant to quote everyone on this and failed at it, I meant that for everyone who has commented on this :-)
