WTF Wednesday

spinsoffresonance · April 2014

Go...

WTF pregsomnia, it's 6.30am and I'm still awake! This momma needs some sleep before chasing a toddler around all day long.
WTF myself for starting this early, @typeset‌ can flame me now

awc1986 · April 2014

I'm stealing your "WTF Pregsomnia!" - sleep has been pretty good to me until last night. I was laying there at 2am feeling like i could run a marathon.

WTF body?! - I've had 3 BMs in the last 12 hours or so, on/off back pain, nausea, headache and i'm exhausted. Lets either do this now, or let me get on with my day.

Jennyinheaven · April 2014

Wtf percocet I stopped taking you several days ago why am I still constipated..Wtf self why don't you know what day it is anymore, and set feeding alarm for yesterday, luckily your new kid doesn't forget and woke you up screaming at 5am

cbrust · April 2014

All aboard the WTF Pregsomnia train! Been waking up around 3:30-4am for the last few days then falling back asleep around 9. Not cool!!

Also: WTF body? Been feeling super crampy/back ache-y but no real contractions yet. Dilated to 2cm as of yesterday-let's get this show on the road!!

I'm going to steal this too. I was wide awake at 4 am and after contractions all day yesterday and pretty much everything you described...still no baby! I know she would be early but that was not ok to think she was coming and then have her not come.

I'm just ignoring her now. If she wants to mess with me then i'm not going to entertain it. Either come out or don't. I'm starting the discipline while she's still in the womb.

NorthernGal248 · April 2014

Wooooohooooo insomnia!!! 3:32 in Alaska and I can't sleep! Got some serious cramps going.. No cobtractions yet.

gutsysneakers · April 2014

WTF? Why do I have to go to work today. It was POURING on my walk to the metro. My umbrella sucks. Why am I still going to work? And why do I have a jury trial today so I actually have to work? WTF?

jsaffer01 · April 2014

I'm jumping on the no sleep train!! I wake up around 1:30am and don't fall back asleep until around 5am and am up around 7am to get ready for work.

WTF first client of the day cancelling and then expecting me to do make up hrs, ya that's not happening. The only free time I have for make up hrs is when I schedule my docs appts. Sorry!!

WTF dogs.. Do you really have to sleep up my butt, and steal all the blankets? There is the whole other side of the bed no one is using sleep over there, not on top of me so I'm even more uncomfortable.

WTF weather, will you stop raining for one day so MH and I can finally finish cleaning the car and put the car seat in!!!

Okay I'm done now.

Feeding alarm? Sleep? What are those things? DD is up all night, feeding almost constantly.

ho11yday · April 2014

Wtf why can't I sleep? I wanted to be tired today but not 5 hours sleep deprived tired.

Wtf DH. Stop snoring, and please replenish the benadryl and toilet paper if you use it all. Sleep wouldn't be a problem if you'd simply didn't use up all the toilet paper and benadryl.

I have her on a three hour feeding schedule, I know some people do feeding on demand at first but I can't hang I sleep 2 hours while my husband has her after dinner/ work then I am up from 11:30 to 2:30 for two feedings with a pump in between then I put her down in crib in our bedroom and I sleep also from 3:30 to 5:30 am. I use feed baby app on my phone and an alarm.

Samsies with the pregsomnia. I'm up at 3am daysand now I'm just going with it. I used to lay there and torture myself but now I'm actually being productive and cleaning out cupboards and stuff.

So my WTF comes from DH....WTF wife? Why do you need to wake up at 3 am and turn on all the lights and clean out the cupboards? You've done it all week, how much cleaner can they get?

Mine...
WTF face? Why are you looking so old lately? I know I'm 37 but I'd like to try and stay young looking for the next 10 years.

WTF doctors office? Why must you put the waiting room TV on animal planet while they continuously play SPCA commercials of abused animals? I can barely keep a straight face when I see someone litter, now you want me to sit in a waiting room and try not to cry when I see anorexic dogs locked up in cages?

I am also 37, hate to break it to you I just noticed I aged about 10 years in the 12 days my baby has been here

bumpuser9353653 · April 2014

I'm jumping on the "WTF: Why do I have to go to work?!" train.

Pouring rain here as well and getting a rowdy toddler ready for the day was not fun. Especially when she runs up the stairs and hides (her favorite hiding spot is behind my full length mirror), making me climb the stairs, coax her out, and wrangle shoes on her so we could leave.

I don't have the energy for this anymore!

whimsy515 · April 2014

WTF- Non stress test?! Nurse said everything looked good. I get home to them calling me saying that they want me to retake it cause apparently I'm contracting. All this after my doctor just told me "Trust me, you'll know when you're having a contraction!" I guess not!

jjones59 · April 2014

WTF contractions either come or go....don't hang out for a while cause problems, then disappear for an hour or so

WTF DH's work, why can't you have light duty, he's been off for 2 weeks and 1 more week and he's making me NUTS

WTF sleep....either let me sleep for an hour or so at a time, or keep me up and productive----we can't be sleepy all day and productive all night students don't got to school all night long.

Dude, I don't flame people for starting threads.

I have minions for that.

typeset · April 2014

WTF, MIL? I'm not telling you about the state of my cervix. Stop asking.

lrmrtn · April 2014

Wtf coworkers who don't get back to me so I can't get my work done.

Wtf babe, the exit is not through my ribcage so stop kicking them.

Wft weather. It's in the low 40s, raining and windy and I can only wear flip flops.

Wtf feet, ankles and calves. My skin can't stretch anymore from the swelling and even my yoga pants are tight on my calves. And my only pair of flip flops that still fit almost don't.

Oh my WTF is a WTF professor I'm TAing for... So, he keeps doing things that are supportive to me during my pregnancy and then saying things after that making me do a double take in that I don't think he realizes how unbelievably sexist he comes across in these few statements. Last week he told me that if I didn't want to walk to the lecture anymore (on the other side of campus) that I didn't have to. I emailed him yesterday to tell him that I was going to take him up on that because I've started getting pelvic pain that makes it difficult to move. He said that's fine. Then when I saw him in the hallway we talked about it a bit and he said, "I still need to talk to the Chair about what we're going to do if you give birth before you've finished everything for the course. Because if we're going to continue to accept female students into the program we're going to have to deal with this." Wait... WHAT?

LoveIsAll25 · April 2014

WTF...pregnancy. I was having BH and lighting crotch everyday. I was happy to have them because it meant my body was getting ready for labor. Starting around 36 weeks everything has stopped. Seriously, WTF. I am 38 weeks pregnant, NOW its time for my body to prepare, NOW.

sheriot · April 2014

WTF toe? How are you broken and when did I break you?

WTF body? Wake up.

WTF baby Riot? You are very quiet today and it's kind of worrying me.

awc1986 · April 2014

WTF me - show some self restraint and stop buying all the snacks. Krispy Kreme donuts, a shitload of candy. Eat some fruit or something!

LunaBug924 · April 2014

I've got a few today....

WTF weather? It's almost May but it's 40 degrees and raining. This drop in pressure and temperature has seriously messed with my body and is making me cranky.

WTF MIL? Please, please, please stop texting me everyday wishing me a great day with those obnoxious little smiley faces. Trust me, you will be among the first to know when something is happening so stop trying to force it.

WTF baby??? Only 3 days till you're due and I don't feel like we've made any progress since last week. Seriously, you can come out now. Like, right now.

RachelCA29 · April 2014

WTF tummy - I never really get BH contractions during the day, but I've been having them all morning. So much so that it's making me feel nauseous. I'm hungry but the thought of food is just gross right now. :-&

Soupy84 · April 2014

WTF DH for smacking me in the face last night during one of the rare periods of sleep. Then for waking me up again an hour later to ask me if I "packed the hospital bag". I thought I was the one who was supposed to wake up disoriented in the middle of the night saying "its time to go".

WTF anti-vaxxers who now have created an outbreak status where I live for measles. I now get to spend the first few months in complete fear.

WTF cervix, why didnt dilate this week?

Ezilia · April 2014

I going with WTF doctor appointments. With this pregnancy, the IVF and fertility treatments, and this LO kidney problem (not alarming but have to do a lot more cheek-ups) I'm just sick of getting my pants off for strangers (even if they have a medical degree) and I still have to get this kid out!

Pants always beats non pants:

I would try to get a Dr.'s note requesting accommodation (to not walk across campus). Hopefully, that would make this a non-issue and shut your professor up. I was a TA when I was working on my degree and some of the things TAs deal with is just ridiculous.

whimsy515 · April 2014

WTF wasp in my kitchen? I'm glad I killed you, but now the whole house smells like hairspray and bug killer. And how dare you make me bend over to squish you!

BeesKnees181 · April 2014

WTF you are inducing me tomorrow...thanks for the 20 hour notice. Holy $hit. I am going to have 2 babies tomorrow! I am a little worried that the OB is rushing this, but apparently he is concerned that Baby A is not keeping up in growth with Baby B. I am a flood of emotion.

WTF winds and forest fire. We have a forest fire basically up the road from us. It is making everything smoky, and the wind is blowing hard- gusts of up to 60 mph. And DDs class is cancelled due to evacuations and the building being used for evacuations.
So we are stuck inside pretty much, unless we want to breathe smoke and be blown around.

@-) how scary! can you go to a friends or family members house?

raebee18 · April 2014

@beesknees181 Good luck with the induction! 20 hours isn't a lot of notice but i'm sure you'll do awesome can't wait to see pics of your beautiful little ones!

sopsongbird · April 2014

@beesknees181 Good luck! Can't wait to see those beautiful babies!!!

sopsongbird · April 2014

WTF OB, why you gotta make me cry in the office about my sugar levels and threaten me with insulin when you plan on inducing in 12 days.

WTF LO, why you have a fat head that continues to cause pain in my pelvic muscles.

WTF nesting, I needs all the energies!!!

RachelCA29 · April 2014

WTF Husband (and my husband has been great this whole pregnancy, he's a great guy) - he is just getting on my last nerve today!

Stop complaining about being tired, you took a 2 hour nap today while I was lying on the couch with cramps and BH contractions all afternoon. And don't say you'll clean up the kitchen after I wash up from last night and make lunch, only to simply wash a FEW of the dishes from lunch, leaving the cutting board, knife and pots because you didn't turn your head and look around the kitchen to see all the dirty dishes.

And stop eating all the "quick and easy" snack food I bought to stock up for when we bring the baby home. That stuff will be a great time saver for us when we are super tired and busy. If you want a snack now make yourself something. It's like he's in a race to use up all the groceries I just bought!

ns1 · April 2014

Wtf daycare? Why ramp up the drama just before I'm due. Now I get to worry about keeping DD and new LO in this daycare and all the drama there and half the new teachers I don't know, or about moving DD and disrupting her routine during what will be an upheaval with a new baby already! Great!

Wtf co-workers? Why are you all quitting so I have to interview, hire, and train new people before this baby gets here? Yeah, probably not going to happen.

Wtf June 1...why are you my due date, especially when I see all these cute little babies coming in April and May.

dogsombrero · April 2014

WTF OBs office, yesterday we do a growth scan and you tell me dude-man is built like a linebacker and his belly/shoulders were above the 95th percentile 2 growth scans in a row so even though he's only 8#9 oz now you don't want me to go past 40 weeks and maybe not even 39. I'm not the expert so sure whatever you say. You say you want the hospital's Head ultrasound tech and MFM to review for confirmation and say I'll get a call in the afternoon. No call yesterday so I called to check in today and I'm not getting the information until tomorrow or Friday. I'll be freakin 39 weeks Saturday so we aren't getting a ton of notice if you want to take him at 39 weeks. I'll just let the little plumper continue to gain almost an oz a day (based on previous scans) while you figure it out until you decide you want to cut me open because he got too damn big. I'm am so over it today. If they are so concerned about shoulder distocia due to his huge ass shoulder why are they inducing me so he can get stuck.

@RachelCA29 Hide all the snacks? Is that a viable option?
