So I have a confession and it cannot wait until Friday: I totally went nuts on this woman at the deli counter last night.

See, there are always a ton of people at the deli counter. And there are always a ton of workers behind the counter who never seem to be helping anyone. I waddled up, got my number and stood and waited. After 10 minutes and my being in some pretty obvious pain, it is time for the next customer and my number was next. I am waiting for the attendant to say, "12," when this woman just starts ordering!

So I, in all of my pregnant glory, called out, "Um, yeah. There are numbers and my number is next! So if you are taking an order, you are taking mine!" The woman looks at me and says, "I may not have a number, but I have been standing here waiting. But fine. Wait on HER first."

Yes, they will wait on me first. It is not my fault that you have apparently been on this earth for roughly 60 some years and still have no idea how an f'ing deli counter works. Please.

The sad thing is that I am not remorseful in the slightest for my bitchiness. But I do feel better sharing that story

I am so tired of being covered in milk. Don't get me wrong, I am super grateful that I am able to make enough food for my daughter and hopefully soon start a stash for when I go back to work. I just feel like everything in my life is covered in breast milk.

I leak through my bras/shirts/nursing pads on a more than daily basis, I leak all over the bed/sheets at night, DD2 is a messy eater and slobbers milk all over the boppy and whatever towels I have underneath her at the time, not to mention she soaks her onesies all the time too. It is seriously to the point where I have a small load of laundry almost every day.

This was so me the first time around. It does get better!

It is already 85° today (1145am). It is supposed to be 100*. We don't have central AC. Last night we slept in the guestroom with our portable AC unit (the guest room is the smallest room in the house so it means the AC unit cools more quickly). I got up four times to go to the bathroom, a new personal record.

I'm really started to get disappointed in my doctors. Had a tummy check last week and the Doc says 'Hmm, can't find baby's head. Let's do a quick scan'. Cue me freaking out. He does a quick ultrasound (doesn't show me the screen) and says 'okay his head is way down in the pelvis'. Today I had a tummy/cervix check with another doctor in the practice. She gives me the same 'I can't find his head' spiel and says if she can't feel it in the cervix check, we'll do an ultrasound. She does the cervix check and says "This feels hard like a head. I'm going to say it's his head." I'm sorry but the lack of confidence going around this practice is absurd! I've had a lingering feeling he is breech by the location of his movements and they aren't helping

I'm so annoyed with all the contractions that are amounting to nothing at all except discomfort.

Also, my feet are swelling quite a bit again, as are my calves.

I'm basically one big whining blob that's tired of wondering what's what while being incredibly uncomfortable all the time.

shevaCC · August 2014

Being overdue SUCKS. I feel like all I'm posting today are whines about not being done yet. My mom's 2nd (my younger brother) arrived 10 days late so I just keep thinking about how in the world I will survive more than another full week of this

Um, wtf??? :-O

AngieGrace07 · August 2014

@tamarar5 EXACTLY! I'm at a loss for words at this point. Next appt is next Monday so if the 3rd doctor gives me the same BS, I'm going to raise hell. I'm starting to get all types of theories in my head including his body as not being shaped normally! Trying not to stress about it but these folks are the worst.

I'm sorry, I'm sitting here laughing WAY too hard at this. Can't find the head?! Did your doctor go to online med school? Pretty sure the head is in there - it's not like it would fall out or something. Ah, still laughing. I'm way too tired today...

cashews29 · August 2014

I understand being annoyed, @AngieGrace07. My docs told me LO was head down from about 30 weeks to 37. Then he said at 37, "Well, let's just double check" and brought me for a sono. Turns out what they thought was her head was actually her butt and she's breech. He actually said my LO had a firm butt.

So yeah, it's a c-section for me now. haha

AngieGrace07 · August 2014

LOL @dogperson11 I laughed too. I texted DH and he wrote back "so he has no head??" Horrible, lol.

@cashews29 Wow!! Yep, wouldn't be surprised if my story goes that route. Will be thinking of you! xo

I have a non-pregnancy related bitch.

I hate the bathroom at work. There's one bathroom on this floor and we share it with all the other companies who have offices on this floor. It's usually not bad, the day porter cleans it twice a day and restocks. Apparently, a lot of women have no problems blowing up work bathrooms with 7 stalls in them, but you gotta do what you gotta do. However, lately the bathroom has been HOT, like there's no AC running in that room. It's Arizona, it's 110 degrees outside and we're on the top floor, it's disgusting. So the bathroom is hot and smells like shit all the time. And I get to use it a million times a day. Also, the floor is wet...I hate wet bathroom floors. Lastly, for some reason my favorite stall today has what appears to be menstrual blood on the front of the toilet bowl. So I keep going in there to pee and walking into my favorite stall and having to back away slowly and pick another stall because I don't want my pants touching someone's menstrual blood. I have 2 hours left, maybe I can avoid the bathroom until I get home (cue laughter).

shaylagirl · August 2014

OMG, I would GAG over that bathroom situation!!

Thankfully I have 8 floors to pick from, but I go down one floor when I need to blow it out.

But, I certainly have a favorite stall (same stall no matter what floor I'm on), and I get irrationally irritated or upset if someone's IN it. That's MY toilet, dammit!!!

haliebabyx3 · August 2014

Work was enough for me today, that is all. Super moon didn't cause me to go into labor, I'm pretty sure work will cause it.

Allison7 · August 2014

@BlckRoses‌ um, that it awful. Just awful.

Jentech84 · August 2014

I'm joining in on the 'I want this baby out NOW' crew.
Since Thursday I've been having regular contractions every early afternoon-bedtime, anywhere from 8-13 minutes apart. Last night was the first time I'd been woken up numerous times by them. But alas, come morning they were gone... only to return this afternoon like clockwork. Frig. I'm pretty well done with them by now unless they actually progress to real labour!

tamarar5 · August 2014

Okay, I've got another bitch. I'm irrationally annoyed that my due date is pulling to a close with no sign off labor, and I don't see my ob for three more days. I'm even more annoyed that I have no idea where I'm at — my regular ob has never checked me. I had one by a different ob while mine was on vacation a couple weeks ago and I was at 1cm, but only half of my cervix was at 1cm(wtf?). For some reason, tonight this is REALLY bothering me.

caballablanca · August 2014

I'm 6 days pp and my hands and feet are still swollen. I've got sausage toes and fingers. It hurts to walk in these feet. I don't remember it being this bad last time around.

Adam-n-Emily · August 2014

@kaitm22 - T&Ps to you and your mom!

I went today to the doctor and had a cervical check (1st one since my PTL incident at 33 weeks). The MW proceeded to tell me "NO CHANGE!" I know it means nothing, but I have been having BH like crazy. It made me really bummed leaving and I have been in a funk the rest of the day.

I started taking some probiotics yesterday and today I'm pretty nauseous. Wondering if thats normal because I've never taken them before. Or maybe I'm nauseous for another reason. Might be the coffee. I don't know.

Maybe you're pregnant! J/k j/k

My feet were so swollen this morning that I was literally late for work. I had to wait for the swelling to go down enough for me to shove them in my shoes! Also, the acid reflux is so bad that I feel it clear up into my ears. I'm over these shenanigans!

camichalski · August 2014

I'm having a baby in 5 days. My street is 5 feet under water. My basement is flooding. I can't get anything out of my basement because it is all to heavy. I am stuck at home. My husband has been on his way home for 4 hours and is only half way home. He only works about 25 min away. Everyone had a flooded basement. How am I going to bring a kid home in this mess!?!?!? Also my dog peed on the carpet because he held it to long. It is still raining.
