Monday bitchfest..

Getting it started!

 

Yesterday Matthew was whining because we were all eating dessert and he freaks anytime you're eating and you don't share (boy loves his food!) but he had already eaten. But before I could even react my FIL gives Matthew a big spoonful of caramel sauce off his dessert! We have strict rules about no dairy or wheat until a year. It had both! It was a apple struddel with caramel cream sauce. I freaked! Took me asking 4 times "What did you give him???" beofre he would answer me. Just because you gave your kids junk from the beginning doesn't mean I am! They hate all "my" rules and I feel like he did it just to be an ass.

    I am truly considering finding a counselor again to help me set boundaries with people, because everyone seems to think they can be around Timothy whenever THEY want, just because of our situation. I am seriously on the verge of an anxiety attack. I have trouble ever leaving him alone for even a minute with others because they totally disregard my wishes, and I'm quite frankly tired of it and exhausted.
    I know everyone misses my husband, but that doesn't mean you get to take advantage of my worn out self. I'm heartbroken too.

    @TJHine‌ ((hugs)) I think a counselor would be a great idea.

    Is there a point beyond exhausted because I think I have hit it. DS has been teething for what feels like like the last month straight. He has been up at least 3 or 4 times a night. Then to add to that DD has hit some kind of crazy sleep regression and is waking up 4 times a night and they are both up for the day by 6:15. I just want a couple hours of uninterrupted sleep. Is that too much to ask? :((

    Thanks @JoeLies‌ I appreciate that! It's so freaking hard - I know they are struggling, but I'm so stressed that I am having trouble sleeping (even when LO is, which is not a lot!)

    Baby ear infection=antibiotics. Antibiotics=killer diaper rash. All combined equal one cranky baby who is learning to crawl, keeping mommy up all night. Seriously, now I see why other countries have a year maternity leave--to help you keep your sanity.

    Same! Except instead if crawling it's pulling to stand and some wicked separation anxiety. DH and I are so worn out, we're lucky to cobble together 5 hours of sleep each night, and A is grouchy. I'm barely functioning and feeling really overwhelmed.

    @PeachsMama‌ What does your H say to his parents when they do this? Thankfully my dad always asks if the baby can have something, but MIL has tried to give him jellybeans! H reprimanded her and she hadn't done it again.

    He just laughed it off.. Which pissed me off. If it had been anyone else he would have said something but his dad can do no wrong..

    Daycare just called (I'm starting to develop anxiety any time my phone rings between 8:30am-3:30pm). Phia has pooped through 3 outfits today with diarrhea but is "acting just fine!" If she does it again, though, they're gunna have to call back and have her picked up...which means she's not going to be allowed to go in tomorrow. I just hope her tummy is ok. She was pretty stopped up yesterday from all the bananas she had on Saturday so I'm wondering if she just released the flood gates this morning? IDK. Either way...stomach issues in general make me stabby so when they happen to my little girl I get even MORE stabby.

    Yesterday DH and I took his parents out for brunch. The guys went first to get food and the MIL and I went when they got back. DH knows O hasn't had eggs and knows that we have to introduce the whites and yolks at separate times. Well I'm in line and see FIL feed O something off his plate. I come back and just ask "what did grandpa feed you?" He replies with, "just some eggs". "Well he hasn't had eggs yet! And you can do the whole egg." "Oh, sorry". Then MIL asks if he can have rice pudding, after I explained the whole waiting for cows milk and yada yada. And these people want me to leave my son with them for an entire day.

    And on the way home, MIL runs in front of me so she can sit beside O and holds a fucking toy in his face for the whole ride home, after I told her he's tired and will likely start his nap on the ride home.

    These people drive me nutty.

    @fitmama418 It could be the teeth too! Jase was pooping A LOT when the teeth were about to cut through. I don't know what it is, but I have heard it from other mama's as well....

    My bitchfest is that today we started the new daycare location and it sucked. We were the first ones there ( baby wise) and when I brought Jase into the infant room the Head teacher ( who we met on Friday) was in there just getting things together for the day. She barely said Hi and just pointed out where to put his stuff. Meanwhile I have him in my arms plus a huge bag of crap and she didn't even come over to get him or greet him, she just kept tidying up. When we started the other school they were so warm and sweet and immediately asked if it was ok to take him from me. Instead I had to put him down in the table and try to pay attention to him as I put his stuff away. It just really irked me that being our first day she didn't try A LITTLE to make us feel welcome. For an infant teacher she was not very warm at all. He was even talking and giggling and so cute! I hope the other teachers were nicer to him :(

    I hate the need to poke at the baby in the car. It's his fave place to nap, seriously, leave him alone. He has no escape.

    ETA pressed post too soon

    I'd definitely say something if I were you, but I'm a pain in the butt and our daycare center is pretty much open with me because they know I'm a stickler. How did pick-up go??

    The other day they were trying to feed L ice cream after I repeatedly said "No, he's not allowed to have any until he's at least 1 year." They continue to take out a spoon, load it up and were about to stuff it in L's face so I leaped over and literally slapped it out of their hands and repeated myself clearly and the only response I got was (in a very snarky tone): "Who says he can't have ice cream?!" Erm duh fuckward, me, his mother. My DH was pretty pissed with them also.

    Had my check up today and was informed I can't pick Mia up for another 3 weeks ! My husband went back to work today and I'm at my mother in law so I can have help taking care of my child . Over all I'm feeling great so I should not complain . But not being able to pick Mia up breaks my heart !

    That's ridiculous.
    I just hate having to supervise grown ass adults with a baby. Like don't you know a 7 month old shouldn't have caramel?????
