Declaring a Tuesday Twatwaffle nomination!*

WonderWomanAbbey · August 2014

My SS's mom looooooves to bitch about her own pregnancy whenever she sees me - from 5 years ago! "I had it so much harder because _________...."

SHUT UP! I am not a complainer. People ask me how I'm feeling, I joke that I'm feeling huge, and that's about it. But this bitch. OMG. You haven't been pregnant in years and you're STILL whining. SHUT UP AND GO AWAY.

WonderWomanAbbey · August 2014

She does irritate the shit out of me.

But she's stupid and clearl never brushes her teeth. So that helps.

MrsLaLaBug · August 2014

Doesn't brush her teeth? Yikes. So you're nominating her for twatwaffle Tuesday is what you're saying?

WonderWomanAbbey · August 2014

You are correct.

Am I missing the Twatwaffle/Taco Tuesday thread? Maybe just change the title of this thread?

I second this motion. Let's turn this into the Tuesday Twatwaffle thread.

WonderWomanAbbey · August 2014

Adjusted accordingly.

Twatwaffle: the mosquito who bite me on my bikini line

(

Tacos: to all the ladies who have had their babies!

KATILLAC1 · August 2014

Waffles:(mmm waffles) My ute for constantly cramping/ contracting and resulting in absolutely nothing. On one hand I am too early for labor so I'm glad LO is staying put but man do these cramps hurt.

Tacos: To my DH who sent me a chocolate covered Edible Arrangement at work with a sweet note. :x

EDIT: Smiley thingy

nilvero · August 2014

Twatwaffle: The damn charley horse that woke me up this morning. I still feel it as I walk around.

Tacos: My grade level. I'm out today doing a 24 hr urine collection and I've gotten a text or an email from all of them asking how I'm doing and letting me know they have my class covered. I start leave on Thursday, so I'm really grateful I have them. Going on early leave would be way more stressful without them!

nyg2042 · August 2014

Waffles: my cervix for bleeding on my dress and the driver's seat of my car after my internal yesterday.

Tacos: DD unsweetened iced tea...because I love you.

SingleMom31 · August 2014

Short version: Dermatologist's nurse practioner freaked out that I was pregnant and wouldn't renew a prescription (even though the dr. that recently retired ok-ed it for pregnancy last year). I'm thrilled that I get to itch due to not having it for the next month.

Long version: The nurse practioner at my dermatologist's office. I've been on a prescription shampoo for ~10 years. When I was pregnant with DD1, I met with the doctor and he confirmed that it was fine. There's an oral version of the same medication that's category C, but the topical shampoo isn't generally absorbed at all and even if it was, it wouldn't be in high enough concentrations to cross the placenta to baby. Great. So used it through pregnancy #1 and 35 weeks of pregnancy #2. This morning, I went in for my annual appointment since I was out of refills. The NP looked it up and saw that it was category C and flipped out -- refused to prescribe it, told me that category Cs are definitely not okay during pregnancy, etc. First, I tried to nicely explain that we'd gone through this with DD1 and she found the notes from back then, but said that things change and that what was valid 18 months ago wasn't necessarily right now. Second, I asked to talk to the doctor. She went and talked to him and came back saying that he agreed with her. Not what I asked, but okay. Third, I tried to talk about the potential risks and accepting those to not spend the next month itching. Wasn't willing to discuss it. The other sympathy that I got is that it's only another 5 weeks and that it's "only itching." Really, I'm already uncomfortable and you're telling me that itching isn't so bad?

portentosa · August 2014

Twatwaffle is a little strong but I'm annoyed at my family this time around. Last pregnancy no one bothered me about when DS would come out. No one. This time since my stomach is bigger and since my water broke 9 days early with DS EVERYONE is bugging me about when DD will come! I have explained the whole subsequent pregnancies show more because the abdomen is looser after the first pregnancy thing so many times and it has done no good at all. I've also told people that when I had DS is not an indication of when I'll have DD, my mom in particular does not believe this at all.... she is convinced DD will come a week early as well.

My mom has FB messaged me asking how I'm doing and wanting me to let her know if I feel a 'manic' need to clean, as that's a sign of impending labor. My grandma from Sourthern CA has decided to fly up on Sept 1st and stay for a week. I'm due Sept 7th so if this baby goes past 40 weeks she's going to be sorely disappointed. And..... this morning my MIL called and the very first thing out of her mouth after I said hello was, "no baby yet?". Dude woman! You live in town and see me all the time, you think I would have snuck a baby into the house and not told you?

Maybe I should.... maybe I should...

This right here. Shit or get off the pot uterus - you're starting to really piss me off. X(

Tacos to my DH for all the things he has done for me during this pregnancy. He's been pretty awesome. :x

wrightpalomo · August 2014

Tacos: To my boss, who suggested that we skip out after our conference call this afternoon and go get mani-pedis. To Hubbs for getting an A on his first test of the semester! And to my FIL who is refusing to let my MIL come up to visit until I'm in labor.

Waffles: To my building manager who didn't seal up the hole in the wall behind the oven well enough, thus allowing a mouse (probably more than one, realistically) to get back in! Gah! If I weren't huge I'd pull the damned oven out and fill the drywall myself!

conradraging · August 2014

Waffles to whoever came up with that spicy food old wives tale. Uhh excuse me but all of S14 would've been in labor due to Taco Bell by now....

More waffles to the Starbucks at my mall for not having the pumpkin spice latte. Twats.

Finally, tacos to Taco Bell because quesaritos are making my life worthwhile today.

brittneyandadam · August 2014

Tacos to my office for throwing me a pizza party today :-) I haven't had pizza in forever and it was delicious...so was the cake! Also: balloons!

No waffles today...yet. Though, I'll probably be nominating myself later for eating 2 pieces of pizza...and my stomach for rejecting it.

suitern · August 2014

Waffles to myself for constantly spilling SOMETHING on the very few dresses I have left that still fit! Also, waffles to my OB's office for NEVER RETURNING MY CALL! It is my biggest complaint.

Tacos: To the local grocery store for having online ordering and drive through pickup!

Taco: Starbucks for rolling out the pumpkin spice latte and muffins early. That almost made up for the painful appointment prior to. They were both just gone too quickly after getting to work. So yummy...

Holy shit!! Really!? Tacos to you for letting me know! All the tacos to you!

brittneyandadam · August 2014

@tromboner‌ Some locations don't have it yet...my friend was given a hard time by a barista the other day b/c she ordered pumpkin spice and the barista told her it was too early. My friend argued and finally got a manager who had to tell the barista it was ok to start serving it!

alanaw121 · August 2014

Waffles to DH for refusing to take me out to dinner tonight because he just HAS to work out after work. Excuse me but did you really think that deciding to start working out again when I'm 9 months pregnant would go over well?!? Stop effing asking me if I can "see the difference" it's been a week and I don't freaking care if you lost two of the 40lbs you put on from drinking beer and eating wings. PS you could have not stayed up until 2am playing video games, and gotten up in time to work out this morning or even get to work on time so you don't have to work late. I want to punch you. More waffles with mostly twat to you for thinking you need to play video games almost every night because you can't once the baby comes. How about spending time with your wife while you can still have alone time. Guess what? You can play all the video games you want when LO is up at 3am and doesn't want to sleep.

Sorry for the rant

Tacos to my mom who is planning to come and clean my house top to bottom this weekend and again the day before we come home with LO so I don't have to worry about it.

JD83 · August 2014

Waffles to the ILs. DH and I got FIL a nice, leather-bound book to start writing down all the cool stories that he has. It's the story of his life and every time we go visit, the guy never stops with the damn stories. They're entertaining and funny so the book seemed like a great idea. Apparently, he can't be bothered to read past the first two pages that ask about childhood to see what else is in there, and now that he's seen those questions, he'll never look at it again. FFS, man, here's a thought, don't answer the questions you don't want!!! So now, even though, DH and FIL have talked about it, SIL and MIL tell DH that he was all pissed about it because he doesn't want to relive his childhood (which did suck, but seriously, NOTHING good has happened in your life?). So, the waffle really goes to them all for making DH feel like a POS that can't do anything right. I love his family, but really, bunch of frikkin drama queens.

Tacos to BIL for never getting involved in any drama and for being willing to donate his Schoolhouse Rock DVD collection to his niece.

You gotta do what I did, go to dust the entertainment stand off and accidentally push the PS4 onto the floor, the spill the Windex on the iPad for good measure!!!

lbonga1 · August 2014

Twat waffles: These symptoms of pre-e without having high blood pressure. My peripheral vision went all cloudy and dark and was oddly flickering for like an hour. I had to sit down, and I drank a smoothie in case it was from low blood sugar. I was at the mall letting DD play at their playground, but I thought I was going to have to call FI to pick us up because I wouldn't have been able to drive. Luckily it went away before she got tired of playing, but now my head hurts really bad. At least I have an appointment in an hour.

Tacos to the sweet old lady that opened the door for DD and I, and told me that she is adorable.

RedBaramid · August 2014

DH gets them both: Tacos: You found yourself a temp job to work this season at harvest, I'm proud. The money will be good and it will be some back breaking work. I'm very proud that you found that so quickly (sad that it hasn't started yet, we could use the pay checks).

Waffles DH, all the Waffles, You sit at home all day and do NOTHING.. Bish I am pregnant and still working and still helping out at home on my days off. Please keep up on the laundry, dishes, and keep the house picked up. It's not that hard, I do it on my days off.. but is it too much to ask that you take up the house keeping torch while you're on this wonderful mini vacation?? Also, I might would have more sympathy for you not getting anything done if you were working much harder at finding full time work for AFTER harvest ends (in late October). I get that losing your job was overwhelming and scary for you (me too, we just blew through our maternity leave funds due to unexpected emergencies) but you gotta keep trucking.. and you can't be unemployed when harvest ends, you've gotta line up something. Don't make the pregnant wife start dropping by places and picking up job applications for you.. I will. I'm that evil right now.

Oh also taco's for my manager who brought me a doughnut this morning, because she loves me.

alanaw121 · August 2014

@Edelmonte‌ hah I would do that but DS would be highly upset and I'm the one who paid for both. At this point I'm just threatening to tell his mom he smokes and that should do the trick from the remainder of this pregnancy. She is a little nuts and would absolutely flip out on him if she knew.

WonderWomanAbbey · August 2014

Like I said before, Waffles to SS's mom for taking every opportunity to complain about her pregnancy 5 damn years ago. She sucks.

Tacos to my ladies here for helping me pick up the pieces. And tacos to the sweet older lady that eavesdropped on a hard conversation with my sister at lunch, but touched my cheek when she was walking out and told me I wasn't alone.

MrsLaLaBug · August 2014

Twatwaffle: cable companies

Tacos: DH for being so super supportive here at the end of my pregnancy!

lala, i think this is a universal truth.

kmbk27 · August 2014

Waffles to those family members who try to start bullshit drama - key word being try. And that's all I'm going to say about that.

Tacos to SO for stepping up and having my back while standing up to said family members.

Ecat504 · August 2014

Waffle: my dad. I hesitantly cut 8 inches of hair off (it's still shoulder length) and after posting a picture to Facebook he calls to tell me he hates it and my "long beautiful hair looked better."

Ecat504 · August 2014

Adding my tacos to a new post because MOBILE BUMP HATES ME!!!!
Taco: 1; to all of you who let me know about Starbucks. 2: to SO who has been so supportive and comforting and didn't even laugh when I cried over my haircut for 20 minutes.

hizah05 · August 2014

Tacos to my husband. He has been absolutely wonderful and helpful since our new LO arrived, especially with our son. He is being more patient than I ever could be trying to help him with the transition of a new brother and not having my attention at all times.

Waffles to our trash service. Three weeks in a row they have not showed up. Last week when I called they said there had been changes. All was good, pick up day is the same. This week they failed to show up again. Our neighbor called and apparently they switched our pick up day without informing anyone. Not a huge deal but seriously you think you could send a memo?!

portentosa · August 2014

@RedBaramid

I feel you on the DH not doing anything when he's home all day. Before I went out on mat. leave it drove me nuts to come home to find DH playing video games and the kitchen piled high with dishes and food leavings. Seriously DH? I work, take care of DS at night if he wakes, and clean up on my days off.... while watching DS. Our schedules were set up so that if one of us was at work the other was off with DS and DH would ALWAYS say he couldn't clean because he was watching DS. I must be super mom because I can manage to get a load of dishes done AND watch DS... it's freaking amazing.

pshaortao · August 2014

Twatwaffle: To whoever stole my Jimmy Deans breakfast sandwiches that were unmistakably labeled with my name (on each pack!) out of the box from the freezer at my work. Who in their right mind would steal food from a pregnant coworker? As a result, the rest of the team have to deal with a hangry pregnant HR coworker.

Taco: DH. He's been just incredibly amazing and supportive and patient. His birthday is coming up at the end of September and I'm starting to think about what to get him

hizah05 · August 2014

Another waffle to our previous HOA. We sold our house in May yet we keep getting noticed that we didn't pay our second half of the year dues that were due in June.

They never answer their phone and have returned none of the 3 voicemails we have left them over the past month. Yet today we got another later bill notice. Idiots.

bainidhedub · August 2014

Taco to DH, who is starting his first college class evar tonight. Ridiculous timing, yes, but it's the first step towards a career he's wanted for a long time (police officer - the local force requires 60 credits to enter the training academy).

Waffles to my legs! I'm still hobbling and I can't decide if walking anyway is helping or not.

mcstrepp · August 2014

Waffles to people who keep telling me when they want to have this baby based on when it is convenient for them. She will come when she comes and if it's not convenient for you then it's less visitors I have to deal with.

MIL tried to do that and I put her in her place about it. It's not my fault that she decided to take a vacation right before my baby comes, and I told her so.

Everyusernameistaken · August 2014

Waffles to the heat and my inability to do ANTHING when it's this hot. Waffles to me for being a lazy, lazy, 38-weeks pregnant mom to my sweet 2 year old who just wants to play and I'm so hot I just want to lie in front of a fan.

Waffles to my Facebook "friend" and all of her "Vaccines cause autism" bullshit. I need to unfriend her before my blood pressure gets too high.

Tacos to my H for going above and beyond in picking up my slack around the house and with our son. He's awesome.
