You post something anywhere be prepared for critique. Be prepared for negativity. You want the board to be successful then you put what you want out it. Stop bitching about whatever and doing nothing to change what you're bitching about.
You want rainbows then be rainbow. You want snark then be snark. But don't expect everyone to conform to you. You want due date buddies then go get you a buddy, we just don't need 246885 separate threads about this very topic, or any topic of the exact same thing. you own your piece and contribution of this board.
Just know that there are what 300??400??? Other people here.. Be
Mindful.

You have good rainbows though

A good mixture of rainbow and not.

I agree 100% about putting into the board what you want out of it. If you want rainbows be a rainbow. People will react to your kindness with kindness.

I love my DS, but this whole "I'm gonna throw myself on the floor and scream and cry because you don't get exactly what I want when I want it" thing needs to end soon. My patience is wearing thin!

lauriedarie · April 2014

This semester of grad school will be the end of me. I have so much to do in the final two weeks, and I feel like a bundle of nerves. My husband gets frustrated because I'm frustrated, and I know I need to relax because of baby. Ugh, can it be over already? I'll just take all B's.

kristyru03 · April 2014

I am sooooo sick of feeling sick! Not only do I feel nauseas all day long but I'm getting headaches frequently. I just want one day of feeling normal again.

I'm also so over my husband sending me a to do list every morning and then getting annoyed if I don't get everything done. I know I don't work but I have shit to do and I feel like crap all day which makes getting anything done a major chore. I want to tell him to get a personal assistant!

Oh and I'm glad I just shampooed my living room area rug just in time for it to rain so the dogs get it muddy again.

Rant over!

tlc35 · April 2014

Feeling really frustrated with my job issues. I am stuck doing temporary jobs out of town and I hate being away from DH for them. Right now I am not working which is nice to be lazy but gets lonely. I went to a thing with DH work people last night and i was just jealous and frustrated not to be able to find a job here. I could get a job if I was willing to move but we can't move cause of DH job. Plus out of town jobs are not going to work out well with a kid.
Plus not working makes waiting for my appointment drag much more.

nurrieum · April 2014

Last night my Dh's best friend decided to just show up, and scream up at our window until we answered (granted the doors are all locked by 6pm but still, this is why calling first is important) this isn't the first time and personally I was looking forward to having my first night off in a while with my husband. I wasn't bitchy enough to tell him he needed to leave so I just went to bed. Dh had another* conversation with him that he needs to call before a visit. I also gave Dh permission to just yell out the window "We're having sex come back tomorrow" if he ever does this again. I know that's super freaking tacky- but I really don't care.

I've been feeling so freaking miserable and was really looking forward to fun day with my kids- now I can't stop dry heaving. I think I also may have a UTI. So Im just cranky.

Also Ds- is all about the temper tantrums lately. Some of it is he hasn't felt well, some of it is he's entering the "terrible two's". We're also beginning potty training.

However- despite those things- I was really looking forward to today so we're going to have a great day together (damn it!).

suzyrenee · April 2014

@Maelara‌ hugs to you too. Hope you and DD get through teething!

JSwinford · April 2014

It's Monday...my boss decided not to come into the office today because it's going to be 73 and sunny. I'm stuck here with nothing to do and I feel like garbage. And if my DH touches the last ice cream bar when he gets home from work, I'm going to scream. M/S sucks and I hate it and I can't shake this cold and all I want to do is go home and read GoT. Blah.

I'm sorry, what? He gives you a list? I gave my step-son a list when he was living at home, but a spouse? Yowza, I'm pretty sure I'm an adult and can figure out what needs done around my home without direction from my husband. And if I don't get it all done, oh well.

Emmy Lou · April 2014

This morning while I was walking out the door for work, at 5:50 a.m., I quickly reminded my hubby (who had just gotten up) to tell his mom that our two year old has been having tummy issues when he drops her off for the day. When I started my second sentence he snapped, "Just say what you need to say and then shhhh."

EXCUUUUUSE ME?!?!?

Then he called me once I was at work and said, "You're not usually still home when I get up, so I forgot that I need to be nice to you."

Oh hell naw.

sweetbabyrahe · April 2014

totally agree about the DS being totally uninterested in potty time. He is turning 3 in August and he could care less. He says "diapers are for me."

Also, I have the most annoying co-worker. He feigns ignorance all the time so I have to pick up his slack...idiot.

I agree with Maelara and LisaRen- everyone's got an opinion and let's remember this is a board with 400 pregnant women. imagine if we were all in a room together?!? that would be some crazy shit. just like any other relationship IRL, you get out of it what you put into it. not everyone is going to get along and not everyone is going to agree with you so it's time for people to put on their big girl panties and move on if they dont like the board. we still have 7 months left so contribute what you want, ignore what you want, snark what you want, and let's all just move on.

missnacholover · April 2014

My afternoon bitch: I don't think my coworker could crinkle his bag any louder. Also, Fritos? They smell like sweaty socks. Blech.

NunyaBennis · April 2014

Saving details for WTF Wed, possibly. Maybe not. I may be totally over it by then.
...but for today?
MiL.
Enough said.

TheAerialist · April 2014

I'm going to pile on my husband, who really, I feel lucky to have around he is understanding, kind, loving and supportive (also the bossiest person alive, next to me, and never wrong. ever.) but he really needs an education on pregnant ladies. He gives me the 'sure you want to eat that' when I crave things that aren't good for me and yesterday gave me (crap) for taking a long nap before doing any of my 'chores' (i also hate that he calls them chores, like I am 12 and have a sticker chart and get $20 if I do them all).

I told him to please keep in mind that my energy is being used elsewhere right now and I could use a little bit more understanding. Seemed to work for the moment, but I think he just thinks I am lazy.

AmyC925 · April 2014

I am sick of every single person that walks in saying "I'm so sick" then proceed to cough and hack all over my desk and everything they hand me. I have a sore throat now and I will tell the next person who does that to leave because no one wants their sickness.

MollMoll4 · April 2014

A lot of the management in my group is out today/at a meeting this week and apparently that means everyone is leaving the office early today. 90% of our group has left for the day! Man I wish I wasn't hourly so I could do the same. What I wouldn't give for a nap right now...

This used to happen a lot when the owner left or was away. He always left early and so did his right hand. Everyone would take that as a que to leave early too. We were a flooring store so we had to stay open. I was always there (sometimes late) until the end of the day. It made the days feel super long though!

Jpinky9 · April 2014

I have another bitch, this one is about work!

I work as a nanny taking care of three boys. The parents asked if I could work the second weekend in may for the whole weekend because the oldest boy has a hockey tournament out of town and the dad has to take him and the mom has decided to go to Vegas with her friends. Normally this is not a big deal, despite working 12 days straight, however.... The two youngest boys also have hockey and soccer all weekend that I will have to be taking them to. I am used to taking them to hockey practice after school. The thing is, that one of the boys has two hockey games in another town on Sunday which is an hour drive each way and the whole day there! (Definitely going to try and get out of that one)

I personally think that that is a lot to expect from your employee! If I plan on enrolling all three of my kids in every sport that I am required to be there for then I would not book a trip to Vegas when I know it's a crazy weekend for the family!

tl; dr my bosses suck ass!!!

mander82 · April 2014

I have another, I would like my rollercoaster of constipation and diarhea to stop now. One extreme to the next. Very annoying.

MommaChrist01 · April 2014

I am bloated, nauseous my house is a wreck and its raining so my kids cannot go out to play which makes them even crazier!!! I just want someone to come over clean my house, watch my kids, and cook my dinner so I can nap! Is that too much to ask?

ed16564 · April 2014

@McSarah1104‌ ugh!!!! My husband calls things like walking the dogs and cleaning the house chores too- it makes my skin crawl!

renbee · April 2014

I was in back-to-back meetings from 9:00am - 3:30pm. And now I am in a coma at my desk. Zzzzzzz

ed16564 · April 2014

My afternoon bitch: coworkers complaining their tired. No tired is being 8 weeks pregnant and 4.5 weeks with no coffee- let's not talk about how tired YOU are- I just watched you down 20 oz of coffee (which, by the by, might be why you're "hot" when it's 60 degrees out)

hiketheworld · April 2014

My heart palpitations are so frequent and they scare me. I wish they'd go away so badly. I don't have m/s hardly ever but the heart not ticking like it should is scary as shit. I'm afraid of having a stroke.

MusLibrarian · April 2014

Stuck sitting at the library reference desk and STARVING! Also, 2 hour commute after the 7 year old threw fits on the way to school... I don't want your pitying looks other parents, I need a high five about now!

Yes I love cheese. I've forbidden cheese in the house and last night caught my sweet husband smuggling some into the house and hiding it in the fridge. Haha!! Poor family.

If it makes you feel any better, I'm the only nearly vegan left in my house... and I'm getting bombarded for requests for cheese or going out and DD and DH getting meat (which is even more icky now) or cheese things. Cheese tastes good still, but really, really doesn't agree with me. So I guess I stick with my plain baked potato over here. Sigh.

TXSparky · April 2014

My body has decided to empty from both ends, when I stand up I get so dizzy I nearly pass out, and I'm having awful cramps that I can't firmly pin down to tummy trouble or uterus. I can't tell if this is some new awful kind of pregnant hell or a virus. Ugh.

Also I'm kinda mad at myself because I broke down and scheduled an ultrasound this week. I was charting and know when I conceived. Also I don't have any concerns that would warrant an ultrasound. I know in my head that this is just a waste of money. Whatever is going to happen will happen if I look in my Ute or not. Yet I still broke down because I'm an emotional basket case these days.

lisaren · April 2014

@MusLibrarian‌ we will be cheeseless together.

I feel BLAH. All the time. Zero energy, no motivation, m/s (made better by diclectin, thank goodness) - but just blah!

I'm jealous. My doctor prescribed me diclegis and it's hit and miss helping me.

My bitchiness: DH and friend were putting his transmission in last night and didn't finish until 2 this morning. We have 2 dogs. They were CONSTANTLY whining (you can hear them throughout the house) so I got no sleep. I teach and we're currently administering CRCT. I was super pissed and let DH know it.

TXSparky · April 2014

@missnacholover‌ Very true! I hope I get to see that amazing pixilated little heartbeat!

CarrieAnne09 · April 2014

To add to my morning sickness and fatigue I've had a cold for about a week and it WON'T GO AWAY. I haven't done anything with my life except work and sleep for a week. My doctor told me it's going around and theres nothing she can do for me. I cry every morning when I wake up and feel like absolute crap. Rant over.

Please please go away cold so I can just be pregnant.

I feel your pain. I had the flu the week I got my BFP.

jessa1228 · April 2014

Yep, add me to the sick camp. I woke up Saturday with a nasty cold and I feel effing terrible. My nose is completely blocked up. I'm currently boiling water on the stove so I can inhale the steam. I'm desperate.

tinkerbell1658 · April 2014

This girl at work JUST found out she is pregnant. Shes 6 weeks.....12 days behind me. Im not announcing because of my loss in january im paranoid! But im jealous!! I was pregnant first! And that means we'll be down two people at the same time AND Im praying there will be room for 2 6 week infants!!! I work at a daycare. Ugh!

tinkerbell1658 · April 2014

And my roommate (baby daddy) smokes and has cigarette butts/ half smoked cigarettes around. Super smell is going crazy!!! DISGUSTING!!!!

nonoemily · April 2014

I am finally on the tail end of a nasty respiratory infection, but I still have to sleep sitting up. Otherwise I cough all night.

I took my beautiful, adorable son out to lunch today and some old couple two tables away were snarking to each other about us. "I would never bring a child that young to a restaurant". "Watch, he'll be screaming and throwing a fit before long".

Umm, no, assholes. My kid is a fucking angel and he sat politely, ate his food, never raised his voice, and was a little gentleman the whole time. My two year old has excellent manners, unlike you two. I take him to restaurants all the time.

My nausea is getting worse and I've developed an aversion to basically all the foods i normally eat. I'm not throwing up, but I feel like I'm going to all the time. My belly feels like it's full if rocks.

wallygirl · April 2014

When people throw themselves baby or wedding showers. I just got an invite (on facebook which is another rant if you expect me to get you a gift I better get a real invitation not a freakin fb event invite) from my cousin for a baby shower she is throwing herself for her THIRD baby. Really? You're on #3 and you need another baby shower. It isn't even like her kids are older and she is starting over. One is barely 4 and the other just turned 2. I just feel like it is poor etiquette to throw yourself a party to get gifts.
