Scrotum (or vagina) kick Saturday!

jshrop · March 2014

Cause sometimes your SO is an asshat. Vent here and save the scrotums (scrotii? Anyone?)

jshrop · March 2014

My hubs is an un-invested jerk today. See Stabby Saturday for details lol.

SandraPB1220 · March 2014

I don't have a vent, my husband is actually gone this weekend. However, for reasons I'll let you guys guess at, I looked up the plural of scrotum at work one day, it's scrota. Scrotums is also acceptable. LOL

Hahaha!! I love it. Thanks @sandrapb1220

DH was supposed to stop at Wendy's for me on his way home last night. He got home and said "he forgot" and was "too tired" to go back out. I ugly cried.

I'm still pissed today. This has been my first real pregnancy food request. Gah!

@jmar2011 - my H is an insane packrat with a "few" things and I dont get it. Why are we keeping 10 year old volumes of Performance VW magazine? What are we ever going to do with them?

I love H and am very happy that he is quitting smoking. HOWEVER, when he stopped on February 1st, he also decided not to drink for a month, because in the past, a few drinks = smoking again. For the last week all he has talked about is how hard it has been for him. SHUT UP. I can't drink at all! Not that we are booozebags, but we both enjoy a few on Friday nights or whatever.

Then today, anytime I said anything about my sciatic pain or heartburn, he would chime in with, "oh, me too, I slept on something wrong" or "I know, I must have ate the wrong thing, too."

I have zero patience for sympathy pains. Zerroooooooo.

I didn't see @rachel5130's post when I wrote, but great idea! The nursery was a "man room" aka pile of H's crap... until I just started boxing it up myself. Then he made some headway... not a lot but at least it's in the basement and out of my sight!

And thanks, @jmar2011! I'm proud of him! I think I mentioned in another thread, I mentioned the increase in the risk of sids enough times that it got in his head, too.

Mine maybe a little long, sorry in advance.

Overall I have agreat DH who does just about anything to make me happy, but lately I would love to rip his "Scrota" out from where it hangs.

Here goes. I have always been somewhat of a neat freak to where I like to keep a clean and tidy house. Well since finding out about this pregnancy I have been extremely exhauseted as Im sure many of you are still feeling this way.

Anyways, on top of being pregnant and exhausted, I work, and go to school full time, chase a 2 yr old around, get up in the middle of the night when he has to go potty, or needs a drink, and I get up with him one day on the weekend, as well as cook, clean and do other house hold duties.

Needless to say, on my days off I do not get a break.

On the days my H has off I could swear he just sits on his ass all day and doesn't help to keep the house picked up. So by the time I get home, I walk through the door and I immediately feel like my head is going to explode because I just spent two whole days scrubbing just to come home to a tornado.

He doesn't get up with DS in the middle of the night unless I make him, which still turns into me getting up, and I still let him sleep in on Sunday mornings, just because that has been our routine since DS was born where we would take turns on the weekends sleeping in.

I have mentioned to him how I do so much all the time, and don't get the chance to just be lazy all day on my days off, but appearently it doesn't register because the house is still destroyed 90% of the time.

"I am not your mother. Pick up your fucking shit!"

@lest12 my dh quit smoking in dec and it has been kinda rough! he smoked for 15+ years so i am super proud of him but sometimes it feels like there are two crazy preggers over here lol! again, bottom line he quit for our new growing family so i couldnt be prouder but i am just counting the days until he gets through the grumpy moody phase (to be fair, i bet he would say the same thing lol)

so i took the dog for a long walk today and when we got back our puppy drank water too quickly so he threw up. dh immediately ran outside looking like he was going to vomit! i always clean up the dog vomit because he has a weak stomach. um, we are going to have a pooping puking baby here in three months...get over it lol!

gregsgurl81304 · March 2014

Thanks @jmar2011, and @CDK211 your comment put a smile on my face for the day!

I have been contempulating about not doing anything from now on. Lets see how long it takes for him to get the hint and start pitching in.

But maybe I should take your advice and have a heart to heart with him about it instead.

eta: forgot tags.

DH told me this the other day over lunch:

"This isn't meant to be insulting, but it's going to sound that way. I think the reason I haven't been able to feel many kicks yet is because you have too much extra cushioning in the way."

Thanks, dear... as if I hadn't thought of that one on my own. Very sweet of you.

ricecakes1216 · March 2014

H needs a new vehicle. We currently pay over 600 a month in gas alone. So he came to me saying that he wants a Focus or Cruze because of the gas a good price. Great! I'm all for it.

Now he is convinced that a Mustang is a must. His argument is that he'll be giving up his truck and he's always wanted a Mustang. Uh, we're having a baby. So I tell him that it's not a practical choice and BOOM freakibg World War 3! I get that he wants a nice car but, really?

sarahlynnc317 · March 2014

DH decided to spend his day off (the first in at least 12 days) at the bar playing pool with his buddies. Our compromise was that if he does that then he grocery shops and makes dinner tonight. You would think the freaking world is ending today!

jshrop · March 2014

Haha!! @ricecakes1216, my family cat is a Shelby Mustang with a crazy loud exhaust system. It's so fun to drive but I can't see taking the baby for a ride to calm her down. I alternately have a suburban too but I try not to drive it too much. It's such a gas hog/waste of too much space.

jshrop · March 2014

Yes, but it's 22 mpg (ish?) is was better than my 7-11 mpg suburban. I miss my mini.

ricecakes1216 · March 2014

Rachel5130 jshrop Will a car seat be a huge deal getting in and out? On one hand I want H to get the car he wants, on the other hand I just see having to the the car seat in and out would be an issue. Also, I see him getting bored with it. He will be responsible for picking up the baby from daycare so the kid will have to ride with him. I don't want him to get it and let his frustration get the best of him and he hates that car because of it..

My H can't feel any kicks yet either. But definitely a scrota punch worthy comment.

It will be easy as long as LO is in a carrier seat. Once LO outgrows the seat and still needs to be RF (since that is recommended until at least 2 with 4 being optimum) it will become a pain in the ass.

Good to know. Hopefully by that time I will either be SAHM or very part time and we won't have to depend on H picking up little one. I am terrible at making decisions. I feel like this is such a big decision that I don't want to be emotional about and H is super emotional about it.

ricecakes1216 · March 2014

@Rachel5130 I definitely have a practical "family" car that we use the most. He will have to pick up the little guy three days a week. So he says he won't get frustrated but who knows. It isn't going to be as good on gas as what we wanted but anything is better than what he gets now (8 mpg on a good day). I can't believe how much money we've blown on gas it makes me sick.

jshrop · March 2014

@ricecakes1216 I had my nephew in a bucket seat and it was NBD. We are getting a rear facing bucket that goes to 40lbs so I imagine she'll be in a convertible at that point, so also nbd. Maybe test drive one for a bit and take it to BRU and try out a seat to see what you think. Also, where do you live? It's definitely more appropriate for somewhere that gets zero snow.

ricecakes1216 · March 2014

We have very mild weather. We had a day or two of snow that barely did anything. Hopefully by winter H will be making enough that I can stay at home or be very part time so he can take my car if needed.

jshrop · March 2014

^^^ mine is also V8 and stick shift.
