Re: Bitchfest Monday!

  • My Bitch-I have an immature SIL who every time we visit asks if I am pregnant yet and when I say no, replies why not? This weekend topped the cake though. A cousin who just had a new and super cute baby brought him over to meet the family. SIL grabs the baby and shoves him into my arms and as I am holding him says "Now you want a baby right, you can't not want a baby looking at that cutie pie." Yes I want a kid! Sorry my husbands sperm shape is not in our favor! Thanks for rubbing it in!

  • @budders12  Can I go off of your bitch this morning? My dog decided it would be fun to go play in the one square foot area of mud we have in our yard. And is currently tracking it all over my house. Thanks dude. Thats how I wanted to spend my hour before work. 
    Due March 2016 :)

  • I'm still bitching about the sorry state of my garden. I takes me sad. Bean beetles, squash borers and mysterious tomato afflictions, oh my!

    And now I have a kid here who likes to talk. He follows me everywhere and tells me EVERYTHING. Apparently, his dad called his mom from the grocery store last night but he doesn't know why. It's gonna be a long day.

    Oh, and DD is waking up in the middle of the night again. Does this ever stop???

  • @joy2611   Haha! Thanks! I HAD to change it to something different. My old one was freaking stupid so Im leaving it in the dust. 
    Due March 2016 :)

  • @Darcyhermione  Ugh. This. Apparently every woman who had a baby in my family thinks she's an RE.
    Due March 2016 :)

  • We took DS to the zoo yesterday and when we were walking to the car I tripped on a huge crack in the sidewalk. Now I have a huge bruise in my shin and it hurts like a bitch.

    I am so sick of the SAHM shaming I get. All I hear from H's family is that I have no self worth since u don't work. I love being a SAHM. I have been a working mom so we know what is better for our family and staying home is. We are perfectly fine money wise so butt out.

    MIL I know you are trying to help but please stop calling and bitching at every one of your family members that says they aren't coming to DS's birthday party. It's really not a big deal.

  • My bitch is my body and my damn erratic temps this month. And the fact my DH barely touched me this FW, so if I o'ed when FF says I did, this cycle was a total waste, and I'm actually pretty upset about it.

    Also annoyed by the lady who huffed at me on the metro this morning, because I asked her to move her bag off the seat so I could sit down. It's rush hour, bags do not get their own seat.

    Oh, and I have a canker sore. This week is off to a great start...

    My kid is almost 5, he wakes up 2-3 times a night at least 4 days a week. It makes me reconsider tfas regularly. I feel you

  • Ok this may be tmi but I am hurt, butthurt for real.  I have not had any bowel issues, no not going nor overgoing but I have a pain in/near my rectum.  I cannot figure out why.  I have been having bowel movements as regular, no straining to go or anything but I am soar.  No we haven't had anal either so no identifiable reason for the pain.  Just tired of feeling uncomfortable and cannot solve the issue bc I cannot identify the sourse.  gosh thats embarassing

  • slappalicious no call... I cannot even identify where exactly the pain is coming from.  If it continues or worsens I will.  I'll get over my embarassment if it continues/worsens.  Seriously the only way I can describe it is I feel like I did after labor with my entire pelvic floor/rectum soar and fearful of pushing/straining for a bowel movement.  It feels exactly like that.
  • Urgh, I pulled something in my calf like 2 weeks ago and it *still* hasn't healed.  It's not a bad pain, but I don't want it to get worse.

    Oh and I thought I'd have time to log on this weekend, but noooo.  :P  Sorry @darcyhermione I was on Friday night and Saturday, but starting Saturday night I was MIA.

    Oh and Fireball.  OMG Fireball.  I kind of wish it wasn't alcohol.  I had like 5 shots (or was it 4?) Saturday night because it's so freaking delicious.  I would drink that stuff all the time if it weren't alcohol.  I was so trashed.
    Hey Slaps, do you know how/when you pulled something in your calf for sure?  I'm just asking because the first time I got a blood clot, I thought it was a pulled muscle that was not getting better (usually better after a few days).  I also had some swelling in the calf I noticed when I put on a calf-height boot that fit on Monday, but wouldn't zip by Friday.  

    It is unlikely that it is a blood clot, but I just wanted to check whether you are having any swelling, bulging or redness/warmth to touch in your calf that could indicate a blood clot.  Hope you feel better soon!

  • @kelley72‌ maybe anal fissure? I had one and it sucked majorly.

    My bitch: DD is being forced to eat gluten for 3-4 months to get an official diagnosis of celiac disease. Her father and my MIL both have it quite severely. We put her on a gluten free diet at age 2 due to hives, tummy aches and bloated after eating it. However, her daycare/preschool refuses to take it seriously until they have it officially diagnosed. All because of stupid gluten free trends, they think we're doing it "just because". So now DD is gonna suffer for the next 3-4 months. Thankfully though, we'll have definitive answers.
  • I am so annoyed today! We had dinner with our new neighbors (from the whole block, so like 8 people) over the weekend. They are about the same age as my MIL and her husband. Come to find out, one of the first things my MIL said to the new neighbors when introducing herself while we were moving in, was about us hopefully having grandkids soon. So there was an entire conversation about this with the new neighbors, them asking us about it. Nothing like being quizzed by a group of strangers about when you are going to make a child, especially when you have been trying for a year.

  • dazdareis damn that sounds really awful!  Hope you're all healed and hope I feel better soon too.    That sucks that to diagnosis your dd she has to suffer... seems like it wouldn't take so long.  I hope the time passes quickly.

  • My bitch for today is my left foot is swollen for now reason and it's very uncomfortable. Also, i slept like shit last night and have a migraine.

    @sister13 I appreciate your concern and this information!  Thank you!
    I pulled it while running hills on the treadmill.  I stepped funny and felt it pull.  The fact that it's lasted so long did actually have me worried that it was something like a clot, but I have no swelling, bulging, redness, or warmth at all.  Never have.  In fact, it feels slightly better when I massage it or put a compression sleeve on it.  It only aches when I flex my calf by pointing my heel or physically massage the muscle.  I probably just need to give it more than three days off to heal (and even during that time I was walking a lot, including in deep beach sand).  Slappy needs to take better care of herself. 
    I figured, I just wanted to double check!  Thanks for reassuring me & hope it heals soon.

  • My bitch is at H. We are in the process of buying a new car so we are currently down to just one car. I explained to him that if we sold my car he would need to stop saying yes when work asks him to work at 5am. Carpooling isn't an issue when he works at 7 and I work at 730 and we both actually enjoy the time together. So last night he tells me he is covering someone's 5am shift. So here I am, 5:24am freaking exhausted with a healing upper respritory cold waiting to start work.

  • Hey H, you know whose fault it is that you locked yourself out of the house this morning? Not mine. I'm truly sorry you were late to work, but you know that I can't hear the doorbell upstairs, and once you started throwing things at the window I got up and tried to let you inside. Only after I saw and acknowledged you from the window and was coming down, you kept circling the house. So, again, not my fault that I opened the door and you weren't there and then I had to go around the house opening the other doors to try to find you.

    Also, tiny pity party bitch: Normally baby and pregnancy stuff really doesn't bother me, but the new Target/Cartwheel commercial gets me right in the feels every time.

  • Also, IF sucks donkey balls. I just realized that we pretty much have one cycle after my surgery for me to get pregnant and have a baby and not be moving with a tiny infant or while very pregnant next summer. But we can't afford to put off going through the cycles of treatment because the place we are likely moving doesn't have a hospital with the capabilities mine does, which would mean waiting and then finding a civilian RE, which would be so much more expensive than doing treatments here. And, if whatever my issues are turn out to be something we're going to have to fight every time we TTC, then I'll still have to find one.

    I'm going to try to explain the above to my doctor so that she gets the timeline.

    @dazdareis-can you have your doctor write a note saying not to give her gluten. Most daycares will take a doctor's note, and I think they have to honor a note from your doc, and then you can decide if you want to try for a full diagnosis. Most doctor's will write allergy/intolerance notes if you just ask them.

    So many bitches today!
    -Our water heater decided to flood last night, from the area below the safety valve. Luckily, I came across it pretty quickly (all because I wanted to use our little carpet cleaner on the car), and it's in the crawl space so nothing got messed up. BUT- the element blew, so we need a new one and we have to have the old wiring replaced too. This is IUI week, I really don't want to shell out so much on so many things at once. Also, we won't have hot water for at least a few days...depending on how long it takes to pull the permit and everything.

    -My follicle was only at 13mm today. I had planned my week at work around what I *thought* would happen based on my response last cycle. I have to give a bunch of training this week, and now I'll probably have to reschedule on of the days. :/ Should have known better...

    -I bought some organic chocolate and I can't find it. I brought it home after taking it to work one day, but it's not where I put it before, and I don't think I took it back to work. I think MH moved it and forgot to tell me.

    I can't stop crying lately.  I've had to go on 2 "walks" today to try to make myself stop crying.  It's over silly things like seeing an article about a vet getting his wheelchair fixed at Lowes, hearing a song on the radio, and sometimes for no reason at all.  I need to get a grip.

    -----
    I have days like that too. It's all good... it is your prerogative as a woman to cry when you want to.

    Can I add a not so much bitch but an oops moment? DD had an accident at home so I sent her up for new undies. She said she couldn't find them and I was too lazy to get up so she said it was ok to wait until I went upstairs. FFWD to 10 minutes ago.. We get to work, I unhook DD from the car and she yells Mommy! while pulling up her dress. Yup.. no undies. Dress. I'm awesome. Thank god I keep a few extra pairs in her bag so she won't be flashing people all night. Is Monday over yet?

  • @cateyes55413‌ @Trickyjedi‌ They'll take the note, but they won't be as strict about it.

    I live in northern bc, Canada and it seems that everyone treats it like a fad here. Even at the grade schools they want a diagnosis. So we're going to slowly add it back to her diet and keep it as minimal as possible, to avoid too much damage or discomfort for her.
