She's a mean one, Mrs Grinch.

Any public pregger lash outs?

DH an I go for our regular daily walmart run for dinner. We are in line to pay an tells me he will be back he is going to check his account, which is located across from the cashier. Ok. My turn is coming up, I'm eyeing him. He's not coming I need him to pay. I left my purse in my car. Shoot, she's ringing the stuff up why isn't he done, what's taking so long. Doesn't he know I don't have any money. Ok your total is_____. DH comes back running. Before he even arrives my claws come out an I lash out in front of everyone. I could feel everyone's eyes on me, what her problem, they're probably thinking "I was watching" he says. Felt pretty stupid later.

    Yeah it sure is. We we live about a couple minutes away from wal-mart so we end up getting things for dinner almost every night. We will sometimes get for a couple of days then we end up getting so frustrated with the kids an end up leaving. Trust me if we didn't live so close I would defiantly not be going every day.
  • The way the restaurant is set up you watch them cook the food. I am normally careful of this yes. It was somewhere we go regularly too. The owner even spoke up for me because she heard how I ordered it. :) but normally I wouldn't be so mean....
  • Early on in pregnancy( before I found out) I lost it, and I mean LOST it on my husband over the silliest thing. He was getting our puppy all riled up with a measuring tape and I remember being so angry because I didn't want my puppy to associate measuring tapes with freak out mode. Poor hubby took the verbal assault like a champ though. And I felt stupid 10 minutes later.

  • I had more of a meltdown than a rage in Costco this weekend. DH wanted to go up and down every isle! We made it 1/4 of the way through before I choked up and came very close to crying because I was too tired to continue and just wanted what was on my list. I hope no one witnessed my chin tremble!!
  • I couldn't hold back the tears when a restaurant wouldn't give me their chocolate strawberry gelato off their special Valentine menu I didn't order because everything else sounded gross. Mine are more tears at EVERYthing at this point than rage since I realized the raging feeling is the pregnancy hormones going crazy. Since I don't want to do that, especially because God knows I can rage, it comes out as tears. It's a mental battle and choice every time though to be ok with the vulnerable tears versus the raging that would at least make me feel more in control, but also angry at myself after which I definitely don't like, not to mention being totally not fair in those around me. Don't get me wrong, it's not all tears, there are still choice words I regret but nothing over the top like the first 12 weeks when I realized this is something I'd be dealing with again, only the tears are what I make an effort to choose instead.
  • We were in the mall and dh kept walking faster than I liked. Instead of telling him too slow down like a normal person I freaked out and just started crying because he was going too fast.

    DH would be horrified and embarrassed if I disrespected him in public. Maybe I'm just a chill person or maybe it's because I'm in the south, but I don't ever feel "ragey" in public. The only time I would get upset is if someone hurt my child or another innocent person. 
    No, I'm from the North. I wouldn't speak to him like that, ever, and god help him if he ever spoke to me that way. 
    I didn't mean that I'm necessarily "nice" because I'm in the south. lol I just meant the general feeling down here is "neighborly". I don't think anyone should treat their spouse that way. Man or woman.

  • My mom never spoke to my father in such a way either and I always told myself that I would be the perfect wifey my mom was. That all went out the window when I married DH. I married into an italian family an lets just say I've become one loud wifey. It was funny one day I went to visit my father an he tells me" im right here, why are you yelling". Friends hear our conversations an think we're nuts. :>

    This. But I'm from the North, so maybe it's just a respect all around thing?

  • I would never lash out in public. If you're pissing me off in public, I will give you the "do not fuck with me today" look.

    But other ppl don't need to know my business and it would be completely embarrassing.

    I rarely fight with DW but if she gets under my skin, I'll tell her calmly to knock it off. If she doesn't, I break down and shun her. Haha, that usually does the trick.
  • The closest I came was snarling at some customers on Saturday night. It was after midnight, and I wanted to go home. But we keep our hard liquor locked up behind the service desk, and customers have to be "babysat" when they're back there. (Especially since I'm fairly certain one of the guys has stolen from us before). One of the idiot kids starts pushing his friend around and joking about sweeping thousands of dollars worth of glass bottles onto the floor. At that point, I said "are you guys quite ready to make a decision? Your time is up."

    I thought maybe it was my hormones talking, until my support manager said something similar a few minutes later.
