Re: Monday Bitchfest

  • Here's mine-

    I was up literally all night with stupid contractions. I maybe got 1.5 hours of sleep max.

    So this morning I tell my husband that I want to stay home because I'm exhausted and still having the fucking contractions.

    Now guess who's pissy? This last trimester has been really hard on me and I'm tired of getting the cold shoulder every time I feel like crap. It's not fucking fair.

    WTF self? I got maybe 3 hours of sleep thanks to the sharp stabbing pain in the bottom of my ute, which I can only assume was RLP, then the tornado winds we had last night that had our one dog barking since he was pretty sure someone was breaking into the house, then when the wind finally calmed down and I got some sleep I had a horrible dream H had been/was having an affair with my arch nemesis from HS and they were having a baby together too and he wanted the babies to be "close". I woke up breathing hard and in a panic and couldn't go back to sleep! I'm tired, and its Monday :(

    I had to work yesterday, so I wanted to celebrate Father's Day for my dad on Saturday. On Thursday, all the plans were set - coming to our house, bringing their dog, we are going to grill and hang out. Friday H tells me his dad is coming over and they are going to look at the dresser from the CL ad. First that pissed me off because uh, hello don't I get a say if I like it or not? THEN when his dad is leaving he says okay I will see you tomorrow. WTF for? Apparently my H decided to invite his parents over so they can start putting up the pergola in the backyard. Again, WTF?! It is supposed to be Father's Day for MY dad so we can spend Sunday evening for H's dad. So I had to call my dad and let him know he will be doing manual labor instead of hanging out.

    Then on Saturday, after running around and getting the meat to grill and forgetting buns I come home to FIL on the phone giving someone directions to my house. He invited a buddy over of his to come and drink beer and help out. I gave H the deadly look and asked "are we supposed to feed him for Father's Day too?" I could tell H was kind of stuck in the middle but I thought it was so fucking rude of his dad to invite someone over to our house. Good thing I am anal and bought more food than we needed.

  • I might kill our cat today. It's only 9am and she's already irritating the f%#@ out of me. She won't stop knocking over her freaking water bowl that she and the dog share. I've already had to refill it 4 times this morning.

    Also, my back has been hurting since last night, and I'm over it. Is it August yet??

    Ugh I have so many! Saturday night I got little to no sleep. Our cat is old and jumps up on the nightstand next to our bed to get up. Then he typically jumps directly on my head. Then he purrs loudly until H rolls over and he can lay on his belly. He typically leaves within 15 minutes and this process repeats itself at least 6 times a night. I'm a light sleeper. F that! My allergies have been out of control! The pollen in NH is absurd right now and it's killing me! I finally got stretch marks. I know I know. There was nothing I could do to prevent them, but that doesn't mean I can't be upset. Plus, I've still got 9 weeks left...they're going to spread like the plague! I wish today was Friday.

    My boy cat likes to snuggle at night.. So at least once a night he will crawl up between FI and I, stick his wet nose in my neck, and purr loudly for about 15 minutes. Yesterday morning he accidentally closed our bedroom door and couldn't get out (at 5:30)..so his solution, instead of meowing and alerting us to the problem, was to "snuggle" for 30 minutes.. but not actually lay down.. just walk around the bed purring and sticking his nose in our faces until I got up and realized what he wanted.

    My bitch is about the females in my pregnancy PT group. We're forced to be there.. but the females that are there are freaking LAZY. These are Army females, who supposedly were working out with their unit 5 days a week prior to getting pregnant. And they come to PT and half ass the workout, or walk as sllloowwllyy as possible. And I'm not just talking about the ones who are super pregnant. There are females who are like 6/7 weeks that show up and do NOTHING. First of all, you all know we have to pass a PT test within 6 months of giving birth right? If you do nothing for 9 months and gain 80 pounds, its going to be pretty damn hard for you to meet the height and weight standards and pass a PT test postpartum. Second, you HAVE to be here at 0600, 5 days a week. Why not make it worth it? You're literally just wasting an entire hour, that you had to get up early for. It drives me insane. The drill sergeant in me wants to lose my shit on them.

  • Brother and BIL - if you offer to come over and help with the construction in our backyard - do not bring your kids.  And if you do don't expect me to watch them.  I am not a babysitter and have shit to do.

  • I have a couple.  First one is my hip hurts and I want it to stop.  Also, I'm having ligament pain that feels like I pulled a groin muscle and it hurts to move my legs and it was just throbbing last night, I wasn't even moving.  I'm ready to not be uncomfortable now, only 10 weeks to go!

    Second, my parents are out of town for 2 weeks and my brother and I are supposed to be watching their house, checking the pool, etc, while they're gone.  Brother was supposed to come by on Wednesdays and we're supposed to come by on Saturdays.  So this Saturday, I plan on swimming and watching the World Cup on their cable while we're there.  We get to the house and the pool is green.  I text my brother and he says they never made it to my parents house, which is 15 mins from their house, all week.  They just had a baby, but still, she's 1 month old, him and his wife are both on leave, and he can't take 45 minutes to check on the house!?  I wanted to float and relieve some of this pressure on my joints.  Instead I sat in the heat watching DH clean their pool and try to figure out what's wrong with the chemicals.  If my brother had just texted me and said they didn't' make it, DH and I would have stopped by during the week and done it for them!

  • @kaitm22

    I can so relate to you. I have a friend who was my best friend since high school who has never been to my house to see it (skipped my housewarming party to go on a last minute camping trip), who has not been there for me for the last several years of my life which have been very hard (both parents had cancer, dad now has alzheimer's, sister and BIL have both been on life support), and now is not coming to my shower because she "might" close on a house the Friday before it... Not gift grabby for me either. I just wanted her to come to something that means so much to me since it's been a long wait to get to this point in my life.

    After the shower when she officially doesn't show, we will no longer be friends. I need real friends.

    Sorry you are dealing with that too :( It really sucks.

    And yea, she is 24 years old, time to get a bit independent.
    Thanks! It just really hurts my feelings the way she seems to only care about herself and not my important moments. She has missed all the adult milestones in my life, I feel in part, because she cant deal with us being adults.
    I am sad to say that I just cant consider her my friend anymore. A friend would care about my feelings and my life.
    Sorry you have the same problem!n =(

  • Oh my poor hands. As a result of non stop packing and unpacking because I waited until the last minute before the movers came I have now developed pregnancy induced carpel tunnel syndrome. I can't write any of my shower thank you's yet. It's been killing me for over a week.
    I haven't been sleeping well due to dreams of baby being born and his head falling off. And I am woken up with severe pain in my hands several times every night.
    I'm pleasant to be around today. : /

    WTF DD, why are you waking up at 5:30 every morning now?  Especially on the weekends?  This is not fun and has to end, mommy and daddy are really tired.

  • What is it with people who seem to enjoy seeing a pregnant woman having a hard time? I was walking down the hall at work kinda slowly becuase my back hurts and a co-worker stops to laugh and say "It's gettin harder aint it!" She seems disappointed that I'm not waddling. I don't get it.

     

  • Oh and I have another one! I was finishing up laundry and H changed his shorts so he could go work on the yard outside. I saw the shorts on the floor, grabbed them, and threw them in with the rest of the load I was doing. 

    His iphone was in the pocket. Luckily we had an upgrade on our account, but for a brief moment I thought I had just cost us $800. 

    DH jumped into the pool Saturday with his phone in his pocket. I knew his upgrade date was today, so I wasn't even mad. He was being awesome and hanging with our toddler (who doesn't know how to swim yet but loves being in the pool) while I lounged on the sidelines.

  • I have another bitch!  This time at Old Navy.  Why do you send me coupon codes in email and then exclude it from applying to EVERYTHING I want to buy?  DH needs new shorts, I need some maternity tanks to get me through summer, but they don't count for the discount.  I mean, they're only like $10 anyway, but I wanted my 30% off on top of that.

  • WTF stomach bug. Saturday night Otis (our dog) was up all night with stomach issues...again. So I barely slept. Then Sunday morning I felt like complete ass. I had a touch of the diarrhea in the morning and then could only eat half of my cinnamon bun. I became more nauseous as the morning wore on, but had to go to a baby sprinkle at noon. DH was super pissy about the sprinkle (he had to go too) and I was mad because who does that on Father's Day? I wanted to nap and try to get better so I could spend the evening with my dad...but that didn't happen. Got home, slept for 3 hours, cancelled on my parents (which was okay because my mom also had the same bug), started running a fever, got into an argument with DH because I didn't vacuum the carpet this week, tried to clean between waves of nausea, and went back to bed. By 11 I finally forced two pieces of toast because baby was kicking up a storm. So yeah...I had a total of 1/2 of a cinnamon bun and 2 pieces of toast. And I woke up with insane acid reflux at 3 am because baby was using my stomach for a punching bag. Ugh. Rant over.

  • MIL-- 

    You are a horrible person. You need to realize what you are doing to your children and their families.
    You also need to realize how you are you destroying your relationship with your siblings.
    You ALSO need to grow the F- up. 

    I have bit my tongue long enough
    I have played nice

    I'm over it.. The bad behavior will NOT be seen by my daughter- I will NOT have her dealing with the crap the older grand kids are seeing/dealing with. 


    Are we the same person?! MIL drama sucks ass...

    STUCK IN QUOTE BOX! AHHHH


    I don't get this either. When people at work ask me how Im feeling and I say "Great! Thanks!" They ALWAYS respond with something along the lines of "Oh just you wait!!! You still have a bit to go!"

    Why can't people just say "Thats great!" and move on with their lives? And the thing that kills me is I work with mostly men, and it is always the men that say these things to me....Sometimes, when one guy repeatedly says these things, I finally turn around and say "wow, how many times have you been pregnant? Im surprised you can have an opinion about this..." and just walk away. I don't even care if they think Im being a bitch.

  • I am so sick of throwing up.  At 32 weeks, I'm exhausted without any fuel in my body and feeling really sorry for myself now.  I lost 5 pounds over the weekend and I know I'm going to get a lecture from the doctor...but I really can not keep anything down.  You guys, this SUCKS!  Zofran and Phenogren are just not cutting it at all..   :-&
  • @YoginiKiki‌ Are you talking about that void of mood or emotion and you feel like an empty shell? Like your slippin into an abyss of nothingness? Because if you are I HATE that part and I'm so very sorry. I know that no one can really say anything or do anything to snap you out of it.....I just hope it comes and goes quickly with as little damage as possible. Hang in there. It won't last forever.

    @scarfbandit

    thank you so much...yea I just kind of hit that wall...it feels like apathy more than that shell...I talked to my OB and got on some stuff last week so I think (hope) I am not quite going there.  Ive been working doubletime at work and not getting things done at home...so that combined with my chemical imbalance is not stellar. 

    This does make me really nervous about PPD...my OB mentioned that mamas who struggle with depression beforehand are higher risk for developing PPD once the babies come.  Would it be weird to do a check in on this once everyone has their babies? 


    I don't think it'd be weird. There are a lot of ladies on this board that struggle with depression/anxiety issues.. I am including myself even though it's OCD I suffer from, not depression or anxiety. I don't think it's weird to check up on eachother. I'm a little worried about post partum OCD.. I have been struggling with my OCD since the middle of my first tri.. It's gotten better as I've really been working on controlling the obsessions, but I'm worried it'll get bad again after I have the baby.

    I have another - I just got back from lunch and have an email from my mother saying that one of the guests of the baby shower on H's side plans on bringing her daughter to the shower because she will be in town from Cali. I responded with "No, she is not bringing her because she was not invited". This daughter is like a third cousin that my H hasn't seen in like 20 years and we did not even invite her to our wedding. She is an actress on Awkward on MTV and H says she is a huge AW. Maybe it is just me being pregnant pissed but I don't think I need to be meeting new people at our baby shower. I cut friends off of the list to keep it smaller. Homegirl doesn't need to come.
    Oooh. Now I want to know which actress.

    I don't even know her name. That is how little I know/care about this person.

  •  I hold all the financial information....We have the same bank account and BF has a check card and checks but thats it. He can't see account information like I can from my phone, no reason just never set up the app on his phone.  Well I've been working hard to save money for the winter season. I buy very little extra items for myself (no clothes, despite growing, i just dont spend extra money) he on the other hand buys energy drinks, ammo for target shooting, cigarettes, etc. Just the stupid stuff that adds up. And he makes most of the money and those hobbies are perfectly fine with me. However, when he asks why there is only so much in savings I want to scream. First of all I'm pretty sure he has zero idea how much our BILLS actually are each month and doesnt realize after the bills if he buys excessively there won't be much in savings, like duh....and keeps saying "I hope your saving for baby"...ME!?! I've been saving! ughhhhh anyways he can suck it because we are on track to having 9,000 in savings by the end of July. Which is extremly comfortable living for us, granted we will eventually use it all by the start of next summer, its still an awesome point. He works seasonally pulling in most his income, but does work under the table with a friend in the winter.  I just keep telling him to shut up. Boo men. I'm in charge of the money for a reason! Because I is smart! :) lol
  • MIL - you do NOT get to play Santa!  We will not be bringing the kid over the your house every year to see what Santa brought him.  We will play Santa, you had two boys to play Santa for now it is MY TURN.  And Santa will come to OUR house.  Also stop making plans for when he is 5 and 6, he's going to be a baby for quite awhile so maybe start thinking about that. Finally when I go to the hospital to give birth it is not about you, but about me and my husband and our baby.  I don't care that when one of the great grand-children (of which there are MANY) everyone was waiting at the hospital, that will not be the case with this one.  I don't want a waiting room of people anxious to grab my baby from me!  Also no you can't tell my husbands aunts and uncles, because I don't want them calling him 10 million times when we are in L&D!

    Co-workers just because you are all on strict diets and I am pregnant does NOT mean I am going to eat all the doughnuts a rep brought in today.  I have to take off every pound I put on and I am doing just fine gaining weight all my own without your help. If you want to eat one of the doughnuts eat one!  

    Cashier at the grocery store - you need to learn when to stop talking.  When you asked me if I was almost due and I said not till August that was your cue to shut-up.  When you missed that and followed it up with is it twins and I said no you REALLY should have shut up.  When you followed up by saying not once but TWICE that I am just so big I must be ready to pop any day you are lucky you still have a mouth you can talk out of.  Guess what lady I'm in third trimester, I know I am big I don't need you to remind me!   


    I think we have the same MIL! =(

  • Went back to get my cast off my foot and found out I have to be in a walking cast for 4 weeks. I have already been in a cast for 4 weeks and I was healing great, and I felt so confused and blindsided I asked zero questions at all. My DH is calling the Dr to coherently ask my questions and get their rationale, but still. Just cried the whole time the poor lady put my cast on me. Here's to being in a cast until I'm 35 weeks pregnant.

    I had imagined quite a few things being different. I have put a ton of effort into being positive and seeing this broken foot and subsequent surgery as a great way for me to learn patience and that there are a lot of things I don't have control over, but at this point I'm just exhausted of being laid up and incompetent. To say I'm having a crappy Monday morning would be the understatement of the year. I'm so happy today is Monday bitchfest because that's pretty much the only type of event I feel up to attending- a bitchfest.

  • My plan was to not have anyone come to the hospital until DS is born my in laws live an hour away and I don't want them sitting there for 2 days and my parents will be watching our dogs.   Yesterday, my SIL informs me that she is taking a week off to come "help", she thinks she is Dr. Spock.   I am breastfeeding so unless you are going to do my dishes and fold my underwear I'm not quite sure how that will work.  I politely said you don't have to do that who knows when he will come and she says oh i already told them that I am leaving when you go into labor to come to the hospital.  Granted we have never discussed our hospital plans but Jesus assume much.  Also my hospital does not allow visitors until you leave the L& D floor and then have bonding time which is an hour after they do his bath and physical so it will be at least 3 hrs before they can see him anyway.  

    To top it off my dh went to bed last night while i was in the shower and left the tv and every light on which already had me fuming and then i go into our room and see the two loads of laundry that I folded and are 90% his sitting in the basket on my side of the bed with him asleep next to them!!!! he went to bed and didn't even move them !!!!!!!   He said his back hurt!!!  WTF my whole body hurts!!!!

    I said I wasn't going to gain 40lbs again this time and I'm on track to gain exactly that amount again.  Ugh.  I could definitely make some improvements like my nightly bowl of ice cream, but I eat significantly less fast food and junk food than last time.  At my appointment today the "you're measuring 2 weeks ahead, hmmm" talk began and this is about when it started last time.  I think I just grow 8lb babies.  It's not pretty when you're only 5 ft tall so I really just feel like putting my head down and hiding for the next 7ish weeks.

  • My sister's doing my shower invites, and she's asking me how to put my name on them.

    Currently, I'm still using my maiden name because DH was/is lazy about fixing 2 little things I've been asking him to do for 2+ years; the first, get his ex-wife's name OFF the electric bill that I pay.  And to get her name off his primary checking account.  2+ years, hasn't happened.

    He's been in my ass about getting my name changed BEFORE LO is born so we share the same last name on the birth certificate.  FU man.  I'm in no rush now.  Why should I jump through hoops when you've had an excessive amount of time to get this shit handled?

    I'm also mildly irritated at my sister for 'trapping' me on Saturday with her son.  Her son said some shitty things about our side of the family, and I flat told my sister I would not be attending ANY family functions if HE was present.  I'm 100% cool with his wife and the kids, but my nephew spouts hate and ignorance that I don't want around me or my family.

    Well, big sis offered to drive on Saturday, so, I took her up on it.  And, once we were on the road and on our way, I found out that the asshole nephew was coming.  I was livid.  I was planning on doing the sex reveal to my son, my parents and my sister and did NOT want this person who I no longer view as part of my family present for something so important to me.  THANKFULLY I was able to squeeze in that part before he showed up.  But I was still SUPER unhappy.  Managed to bite my tongue because it was about my dad, but still...NOT happy about the bait and switch.

  • my bitchfest is directed at my left foot, this thing is KILLING me randomly since yesterday. It's a little better today, I'm wearing sneakers (that thankfully still fit!). I didn't roll my ankle, didn't drop anything on it, no good reason for it to hurt whenever I bear weight. Luckily it's totally fine with weight off it, but it SUCKS! and I don't know why it's there so I'm not sure how long to expect it to last, and I can't take Motrin!

  • My bitch involves parents at the play place in the mall we went to today. It is a toddler play place, but there are always a few older kids there. There's a little slide there, and it is always super popular. Today there was one girl, I'd guess she was about 5 or 6, and she kept just sitting on top of the slid so no one else would go down. She wouldn't let any of the other kids down or anything, just kept camping out there. Her mom was too busy fucking around on her phone to do anything, so me and other parents had to keep prompting her to take turns and not block the slide.


    I guess my vent is watch your fucking children if they are in a public play place and are much bigger/older than the rest of the children there. 
    Amen!!!! And tell your damn kids to keep their f***ing hands of mine. No 4 year old should be trying to pick up my 16 month old!
