1. I stuffed my feet in my heels today and they were WAY too tight. Flip flops it is until I have to stuff my fat little feet into heels for court

2. I have athlete's foot. It's gross and it hurts like a mofo.

3. If I make it through the rest of this pregnancy without punching someone in the face after they make a stupid comment I will call it a Big Success.

Let's hear 'em, ladies !

Overdid it this weekend with house chores and errands. Everything was aching last night. So of course I overslept this morning so I didn't have time to make my watermelon/lemon/ginger slushie. Crankiness ensues.

vk2204 · July 2014

I slept for like 11 hours from Saturday to Sunday, so last night of course I couldn't fall asleep. Now I am tired and crabby and want to go home.

I had to spend the night in the hospital with Benjamin because he is having a really hard time being under the BILI lights at home. He thrashes around and smacks himself on the edges of the BILI bed. It breaks my heart. I'm tired of the hospital.

haliebabyx3 · July 2014

This is more from this past weekend, but I am so over throwing up. I was so nauseas all weekend long. Saturday I was throwing up so hard I was so sore yesterday. I am also over this hip pain! Saturday night I slept like crap. We were dog sitting again and H can't stand the dog, but it's the type of dog that has to sleep with you. H got called into to work for Sunday, so on Saturday I woke up constantly making sure the dog was near me and not near him so he could get some rest. I woke up with some killer hip pain around 5.

@salsy2012 Did you have a bili lights at home that LO was under or a bili blanket? Hang in there, things will get better.

salsy2012 · July 2014

@+RBL+‌
It was a bed. I'm hoping that his numbers stay down so we can be done with the dang lights!

My BIL and his g/f do not approve of our pregnancy. We have been married going on 4 years, and together longer than them, but they don't like kids, so they are being super judgy.

BIL lives in CO and was home in WI to visit this weekend. Of the 3 times we saw them, he spoke less than 5 words to me and she none. Yesterday morning they call to make tentative plans to come to our house to visit us. I was not feeling well and didn't want any visitors so I threw a fit, but hubby will not stand up to his brothers, so he never said they couldn't come over. It didn't end up mattering, because BIL never called back, never came over.

I absolutely did not want to see them, but to come home for a visit and not see us and barely speak to us is so mother-effing disrespectful. Not to mention the supposed plans of coming over to visit and then never showing up. BIL's girlfriend has refused repeatedly to even receive an invite to my baby shower. MIL and SIL have both asked her, but she wouldn't even give them her address (she lives here in WI). They can take their high horses about marriage and children being stupid and ride them straight to hell.

I can't breath or get comfortable. I can't sleep and I am extremely grouchy.

My estranged father, who I have blocked on FB, is apparently finding pictures of me and posting them on his wall. He is sharing them with his friends as though my Husband is his "new" son and law and my child is his new grandbaby he can't wait to spoil... First off, I have been married for four years and been with H for 7 years, so he is not new at all. Secondly, you will never meet my child.. WTF are you doing? Are you that delusional??? Where are you getting information about me???

bkcgraham · July 2014

- Water is making me feel sick and gatorade is giving me heartburn.

- I get it was a holiday weekend but if you say that you will come and help a friend with a construction project it's polite to at least call and let them know you changed your mind. We had three friends no show this weekend so I got to help DH lay french drains and a ton of other stuff all weekend. I am tired, cranky and sore.

I hope his numbers go/stay down for you as well. I know it's stressful. Think of the positive, at least you don't have to go anywhere for them to test his bili level (I realize this isn't the best but it's one less thing to worry about).

We called DS our little glow worm for the first 10 days of his life because we had a biliblanket.

gahorseygal · July 2014

Such a busy weekend has left me extremely uncomfortable and exhausted. No desire to put on clothes or makeup for this meeting today. It's getting harder and harder to find the motivation to make myself presentable!

cashews29 · July 2014

I don't know what to do about daycare for this kid and it's stressing me out.

So, as soon as I got the 12 week "all clear" from my doc, H and I put our names on a waiting list for daycare. The lists are INSANE up here in DC, so we knew we'd have to sign up right away. At the time, the opening was for December. Well, I called today to check on our status, and we've been pushed back until next February. 3months later than we want.

I'm hoping we can find another daycare for the in-between time, but it's hard up here. Not sure what I'm going to do otherwise.

tamarar5 · July 2014

I woke up hurting terribly this morning. And I have to do grocery shopping. And do laundry. And I don't want to. I seriously want to send my children over to someone else and lie on the couch and make DH do it all when he gets home.

Bitch #2. WHY IS MY 7 YEAR OLD SURPRISED THAT SHE HAS TO GET DRESSED EVERY FLIPPING DAY?!?!?!

I let my phone die on Sat. so I could have a little break from calls and texts. When I put my phone on the charger last night I found that my mom had called me to tell me that Dad had collapsed and was in the hospital. He had internal bleeding and they found a large tumor on his kidney and some spots on his liver. We almost lost him 2 years ago to a rare adrenal cancer that they say is unrelated to these new tumors.

He's in for a kidney biopsy this morning and he's scared. I'm so upset that I can't be with him.

Oh, I'm so sorry! I hope the biopsy goes ok. T&P for you and your family!

tamarar5 · July 2014

@kaypec90‌ I'm so sorry! T&p for your dad.

kareik01 · July 2014

DH is trying to renovate our basement bathroom before baby comes. We are possibly moving in the next 6 months so we're trying to do as many reno projects as possible before baby comes to improve the value of our house even more.

Anyway, DH was working on the plumbing on Saturday, getting the old toilet and vanity out and getting rid of some unnecessary pipes. Well after he got all the junk out, he got to the main water supply for the house. And it's leaking! There's also a sign on it that says "$500 fine if tampered with". So, naturally, we left it alone even though it's leaking and had to wait until today to call the city.

Well DH just called me and said the city won't mess with it since it's INSIDE our house, even though they put a do not tamper with sign on it! WTF! So now we're probably going to have to call a plumber to come fix it because the pipes are so old and if they're leaking already DH doesn't want to risk causing a big problem. This fairly reasonable reno project just took a whole new expensive turn...

UGH

Jennicillin · July 2014

Most of you know my husband and I are huge dog people and trainers, and we genuinely love our 2 dogs....

That said, Imma kill me a German Shepherd if he doesn't get his brains together soon. Ever since we moved into the new house, his delicate psyche has been disrupted and he's having these huge barking fits throughout the day. I'm glad he's not doing it at night, but I'm still so over it. All I can think is "What if he hasn't fully adjusted by the time the baby comes??" Our corgi has done so well! She's just like "Whatever, I'm still eating and I have my kennel" but the German Shepherd is being an ass hole. I pretty much hate him right now. I don't have time for his shit, and am not loving upping his training schedule to twice a day while he adapts and I'm 8 months pregnant.

I wanted to go to Hobby Lobby yesterday, but it was Sunday

My mom came out to help me with all the bed rest stuff and the move, but now that the move is over and I have an all clear from my doctor, she's leaving on Wed. I genuinely don't know whether or not I'm happy about this. On the one hand, it's been really nice having her around for the help and the company while my husband has been gone, on the other hand she can be kind of an emotional drain on me as we are two seriously different people.

Our old landlord is seriously dragging her ass on getting us our security deposit back, we've been out for almost two weeks and haven't even gotten the report on our walk through yet, it would be nice to at least know how much we're getting back so I can plan accordingly, and I feel like they're just being lazy. But you know good and damn well that if we owed them money, they'd be all over it like white on rice... so it's obnoxious.

I'm just in a really foul pissed off mood today.... definitely feels like a Monday.

shevaCC · July 2014

DD woke up scared last night and we didn't have the monitor with us downstairs. By the time I heard her, she was scream crying and shaking. It took a long time to get her to settle back to sleep and she slept fitfully the rest of the night. I kept waking up between being uncomfortable and having her kick me awake. Yawn.

forevermyfenix · July 2014

wtf MIL. Thank you for helping paint the house. I appreciate it, I really really do. If I could do more to help, I would. I'm not supposed to be around paint fumes, and when I offered to help without you saying a word it was obvious you were in a pussy mood, so I took care of the schoolwork that I needed to do and served your family a home cooked meal. But if you're going to come over and act like a bitch the whole time, spare everyone the grief and just don't come over.

The "she's pregnant not disabled" comments that you were making behind my back were hurtful and unnecessary. Had I known what and where you wanted me to help, I would have. But I didn't because you made it obvious you were in a pissy mood and I'm not going to force myself where I'm not wanted, even if it's in my own home. Fuck off of you're going to be a bitch.

P. S. For the millionth time, I'm not getting rid of my birds. You trying to force my husband in the middle to somehow convince him to get rid of them isn't going to work. I'm an adult and i don't need your opinion over what pets I choose to own. Owning birds who are naturally messy is not grounds for DHR to take away my child.

Danielle0989 · July 2014

My house is a disaster. The internet at DHs job crapped out, so now some of them are working at MY HOUSE. I have never felt so embarrassed in my life. I vacuumed and threw the dishes in the dish washer and had DH take out trash. Why is it when my house is spotless, no one comes over, but when it's a disaster, EVERYONE comes over? I don't get it.

enigmasara · July 2014

I'm already completely over wearing this heart monitor & I've only had it on since Friday. The lead pads are itchy & leave red marks when I take them off each day, the transmitter keeps beeping at me with errors even when nothing seems to be wrong (even during the middle of the night), the transmitter hangs down right below my waistline, but the leads aren't long enough for it to fit in my pocket so it basically dangles at my crotch. Also, the transmitter battery is supposed to last 24 hours, it does not.

I'm having a really hard time sleeping now & therefore so is H. I have been getting up to pee 2-3 times a night, having to reload on Tums once or twice a night, wake up completely parched & have to get a drink (I keep a glass on my nightstand) at least 5 times a night, wake up with sore hips several times a night, and now I have to deal with this stupid transmitter going off or digging into my side a few times a night.

haliebabyx3 · July 2014

I have two more..

It's not even 10:30 and I've been blamed/ thrown under the bus for more than three things at work that I had either nothing to do with or it was something out of my control.

My boss is coming in today. His whole family has that nasty stomach virus that is going around. He has 4 kids, 3 out of 4 are sick plus his wife. I feel like he's going to be spreading that crap if he comes in here. I really do not want that virus.

I am your daughter. Less surprised, more so disappointed.

Allison7 · July 2014

For the last week I have awoken 3-4 times a night about to vomit from the acid reflux (I have had the reflux for a while, but not this many times in a night). I sit up immediately and swallow it down, despite the fact that the vomit is in the back of my throat. It sucks. Then DH wakes up and asks if I am okay (which is sweet), but when I say it is the bad acid reflux he replies with an, "oh." Kind of the dismissive, you are overacting to this kind of oh. Then I lie awake, propped up on pillows pissed at DH. Ugh.

Here is the short version (I didn't want to make a long rant). There is this person in an NEH Workshop I am running who has been incredibly rude to me for the last three months. The participants sign a contract with the NEH that they will be on time for every session. If they cant do that, their spot goes to an alternate. He said he was going to miss the first two days because he was at another workshop (this is specifically not allowed in the paperwork) and I reminded him of this. He ignored me. We had to get the NEH involved. He then changed his mind and said that he would be arriving on campus at 3:30 in the morning and needs to get into the room. This is also not allowed, you are supposed to stay in a hotel. I explain this and he starts being really nasty to me (I wont even go into it). I figure out a way to have an intern spend the night to let him in in the middle of the night.....he doesnt come, calls me today screaming at ME about his flight that I forced him to be here yesterday and thus all his travel issues are my fault. Finally he gets here 1.5 days late, I stick my hand out to say hello...he calls me a little bitch under his breath and storms off into the session. Not only did he not say thank you once (considering I bent over backward for this guy) but REALLY? little bitch??? HOW is that an appropriate thing to say to anyone ever? I am filing a report with the NEH but I am completely shocked....

Punch him a couple times for me too.

Thanks for the T&Ps, guys! They've decided that the biopsy is too dangerous, so his team is consulting with the surgeons to see if they can remove the tumor safely. If not, they'll start chemo right away.

Sending thoughts and prayers to you and your family.

elektragreen · July 2014

We went to the Renaissance Festival in Larkspur Saturday. It was really fun, but it was really hot. We walked and walked for hours around the foothills.

My calves are in a knot! I couldn't get to sleep last night because they were aching. My DH rubbed them, but it didn't help. I'm just glad I'm at home and don't have to go anywhere. I wonder how long they are going to hurt, because this is getting old.

KittyMisha · July 2014

There is a goddamn cockroach just chillin' on my office floor right now. He's hanging out about 8 feet from me, doing nothing in particular but sitting in place grossing me out. Seriously, workplace, deal with this garbage. How many maintenance requests do I have to send?

Edit for more bitching:

Okay, I know that summer school for general education students ended last week, but guess what?! Special education still has a week left! How can you possibly justify turning off the A/C to our classrooms already? It is over 100* every day, and some of these students have seizure disorders or other medical conditions that are exacerbated by the heat. I know you guys consider special ed to be second class citizens at this school, but this is both cruel and dangerous.

BabyM82714 · July 2014

I need to grocery shop to stock up on essentials while I'm on leave. So a decenr sized trip. I'm dreading the money and am completely lacking motivation.. its my day off and I wanna do nothing!

MC03 · July 2014

T&Ps @kaypec90!

My bitch: I can't sleep and can't get comfortable. I know we are all in the same spot right now, but it sucks! And now, as of last night, not only do I wake up to pee every 2 hours, and my hips hurt, and my hands fall asleep, now when my hands fall asleep they also started throbbing with pain. So I have to switch sides like every 20 minutes because my hands hurt and tingle. Boo hoo!

Kferrell0201 · July 2014

4th time in L&D in 2 months! This time for High BP. They wanna monitor me for 24 hours! I guess at least I can try to sleep..

CanadianintheSouth · July 2014

Woke up to a charlie horse in my hip last night... that is a new one.

Was sobbing yesterday morning, my husband told the dog to cuddle with me (my dog promptly came and cuddled and it did made me feel better), but then I realized that my DH is getting the dog to console me so he doesn't have to. Sigh.

I feel like every week a new (or old) symptom appears. Not looking forward to the next 6 weeks.

BeachM · July 2014

@MC03‌ Try a wrist brace. I broke down and bought one off Amazon. It didn't make much of a difference the first night but I've kept wearing it and I do not wake up from hand/wrist pain anymore.

I got this one just for my right hand and will get the left if needed:

Thanks @flip_flops! I'm going to order right now and hopefully it will help!

Danielle0989 · July 2014

I have another one. DH and I went to dinner at Olive Garden last night with his brother, SIL, and dad. I was starving. So we get our food, I start eating, and i get full. Well, I wanted a tiramisu SO FREAKING BAD, and I'm too full to eat all of it! ARE YOU SERIOUS?! I love tiramisu! It's my favorite dessert! WTF STOMACHE?!

I think I"m officially over underwire bras....I bought 2 non ones & apparently I need more.

I'm turning into my mom- walking around our house sans bra & undies- it's so much more comfortable. At least I'm wearing cute dresses (with a built in bra shelf) & not a mumu!

I totally do this.. By the end of the day I just want to rip off my bra.. Last Thursday I came home and dramatically ripped off all my clothes as soon as I shut the door. FI looked at me like I was a crazy person. I hate all clothes e right now. I wanna be naked all the time.

@kaypec90‌ , so sorry to hear about your dad!! Thinking of you and your family.. Keep us posted.

My doctor's office is always so freaking hot! Seriously guys, you are visited by hormonal pregnant women every day. Turn the damn air on! I can't imagine you like to walk in to do a vaginal check and have your patients butt be so sweaty they are stuck to the table. Get it together.

Raclla · July 2014

BH are pissing me off. I don't have time for that shit!!!

Work is stupid. I'm doing some of the lady on maternity leaves job and some of the lady in vacations job.....and I'm also doing my job.
More overtime this week. Because you know, working insane hours while 35 weeks preggo is totes fun.

My eyes hurt from rolling them so much. I'm over it.

My BP was 88/61 this morning. The top number didn't get over 99 yesterday. I told DH I would try not to inconvenience him by passing out or something dumb like that today.

I'm a bitch.
