Twatwaffle Taco Tuesday

kmbk27 · September 2014

I need to hear your nominations. I can't pick just one. Unfortunately, at this point, I want to throat punch everyone.

punnybunny · September 2014

For you, @bumwaters‌-

kmbk27 · September 2014

@bumwaters‌ - I can't handle work much longer either. It's just all bad at this point.

I will continue my tradition of giving tacos to the whole board. Tacos to mamas with outside babies because that's just awesome, and tacos to those of us still pregnant because, no matter what stage we are at, I think we can agree that late third tri SUCKS.

CUBBIESMAMA3 · September 2014

Twats go to:

1.) The customers who don't want to listen and who want to be stupid and bitchy.

2.) Being hungry again.

3.) Being hot.

4.) My work system going down in the middle of a call this morning.

5.) Being at work.

Tacos:

1.) To DS for going to sleep easily last night for once. Thank you Son. :-)

2.) To having only 13 working days left. :-h

3.) To having a 3 day weekend coming up before my RCS. :-D

4.) To my co-workers who threw me a baby shower yesterday. I got some much needed items that we haven't been able to purchase yet. :-) I may have a sucky job, but I love the people that I work with.

Waffles to DH. I'm nesting, I can't get him to take the crib apart in DDs room and move it to DSs room. No he's not going to be sleeping in there right away but I want my nursery finished! Also waffles to myself. The last few days I've found myself to be very irritable and getting upset with DD, shes been very cry babyish and it's not normal for her. And I'm already stressed, I feel bad after I realized I've yelled, and she makes me feel worse bc she climbs in my lap or has me pick her up and gives me a big hug and kiss

she's so sweet. I feel like a bad mom.

Tacos to DH he helped me clean the entire house yesterday, and gave DD a bath last night so I didn't have to bend bc of the contractions I had all day yesterday. And tacos to my LO for staying put, I'm so excited that I'm 38 weeks, dr didn't think id go past 37!

conradraging · September 2014

Waffles to my cervix for not being favorable.

Also to the lady at chipotle who just yelled across the store "that's a big belly!" Fuck. Off.

Tacos to H for buying me food and taking me to the movies to cheer me up about my stupid cervix.

JustCricket · September 2014

TW to the jackasses who steal hospital remotes... I mean who does that??? Since I'm just here to visit with baby I always get the short end of the stick when they run out, so no tv watching today because someone decided to steal a remote that you can't even use at home.

TW to the mean nurse yesterday that kept taking off the hat we brought from home and putting the hospital hat (tacos to the nice one who said something about it to said mean nurse "where's her cute little hat? why is she in the ugly hospital hat again?")

Tacos to Alexis for consistently gaining every day this week and for eating like a champ. At this rate she should be home any day now. Who would have thought gaining a pound would take so long?! lol

Bella2425 · September 2014

Twats to DH for refusing to clip my toenails (because- "ew"). So there I am this morning nearly killing myself trying to do it and my stupid numb fingers can't even hang on to the clippers. I mean, I get it, I'm not a foot person either, but dammit, I need my feet to at least look respectable right now. I'm getting a pedicure dammit and I'm not even gonna feel guilty about the $$

Waffles to DH for at least going and getting me a sonic blast at 9pm last night. It was delicious.

Jenner37 · September 2014

Tacos to my mom who is flying in today, now let's get this show on the road, baby!

hizah05 · September 2014

Waffles to the urgent care doctor who brushed me off last week when I went to have a bug bite checked out. I don't think a bite I got 3 weeks ago should suddenly swell up and be the size of a quarter. But according to him it was nothing. Now 5 days later here I am at my GP having her look at a bite that's now tripled in size. The nurse actually gasped when I shower her my leg. Not where I need to be a week and a half after having a baby.

Ahlome08 · September 2014

Waffles to the cramps I was having all day yesterday and it turned out to be nothing.

Tacos to the midwife on call who suggested a few things so I could sleep through the night. I woke up only once and it was probably the best sleep I've had since first tri.

bainidhedub · September 2014

Waffles to me for forgetting to bring lunch today, so I have to go out, again.

And for the guy upstairs who called to bitch that his office was too hot, and to offer the brilliant suggestion of turning the AC on earlier in the morning, which of course no one in the history of office buildings had come up with yet. Thank goodness we have plastic surgeons like him around.

RedBaramid · September 2014

Waffles to all my Dr's and the L&D nurses: I called yesterday after being in so much pain I was crying, and 2 and a half hours of constant dizziness followed by vomiting everything I had eaten completely undigested. Yeah the on-call doc wants me to get checked out in L&D. The placement of the pain was indicative of a UTI, with my last UTI my first symptom was nausea. I fully expected to go in and get checked for a UTI, be bagged, be given antibiotics, and sent home.

3 hours in L&D, 2 bags of fluid, a UA and blood work showed I have "elevated levels." Of what?I dunno they won't tell me "You have elevated levels but they aren't clear enough to show us anything." Are you talking about the protein levels that were slightly elevated that everyone is suppose to be watching? Is my white count starting to elevate which would show my body is starting to fight an infection? It's the next day and I'm still dizzy, I'm super exhausted, and I'm barely holding down what I'm eating. I called the office this morning as directed and no one has told me anything? Is this my new normal?! Am I getting sick? Just a clear answer to anything would be nice.

Tacos for DH because he spent 3 hours in L&D last night and for 2 minutes they had a hard time finding LO's heart beat when they were setting up the monitor and he started to cry he got so nervous.

slowmo · September 2014

@RedBaramid: WTF is wrong with them? "Elevated levels" without specifying what? Jerks. I hope you feel better and get some actual information soon.

mcstrepp · September 2014

Waffles to anyone that tells me oh you are carrying high you are probably going to go way past your due date.

Also waffles to nausea which has been pretty intense the last few days.

bumpuser10199668 · September 2014

Twatwaffle for due dates. Today is mine. WHERE IS MY BABY? Everyone knows babies come exactly when predicted, so I'm not sure where the problem is.

ashaw512 · September 2014

I have another that has left me in tears. Waffles to DHs great aunt that I met for the first time this past weekend. She got my phone number from a family member and called me, and here I am thinking she is genuinely concerned about me being in the last week of my pregnancy blah blah. So she's asking questions and I don't mind bc she's being the sweetest and most caring person ever. (Still thinking she's actually genuinely concerned) she goes on to asking about BFing, asks me if I am and I say yes. She asks if I Breastfed DD, bc of course breast is best. I told her I tried and it didn't work out. So she says "shame on you! You deprived your child from the best nourishment she could ever possibly get! You failed your daughter!"
Are you fucking kidding me lady?!? Fuck you, I tried so hard to nurse my baby when I was actually wasn't giving her any nourishment. My baby gained ONE OUNCE in three weeks, I changed my diet, I did supplement, I did everything I could when her ped told me I could not BF anymore. I didn't have enough fat in my milk. It was the most heartbreaking and hardest thing I ever had to do, I felt like an absolute failure as a mother. Here you are bring back up all the suppressed emotions about me BFing which I thought were resolved, along with confirming the fact I thought I was a failure as a mother. Well I got my baby the nutrition she needed from formula, and she started packing on pounds and one of the healthiest babies at the practice according to her doctor, therefore I'm not a failure as a mother, I did what was best for her.
And I was the one that hung up on. So I'm now stressing about BFing my LO.

kmbk27 · September 2014

Waffles to myself for not knowing, or at least not being confident in, whether or not what I'm feeling are contractions. I feel like a dumbass every time I have to answer my doctor's, "Having any contractions?" question with, "I think so, but I'm not really sure."

Don't stress. You did everything that you could. I know that it's hard, but try to not listen to that fucking bitch. She sounds like she is very uneducated about the situation. Just do the best you can, Mama. You did right. Don't worry. :-)

KATILLAC1 · September 2014

Tacos to Mrs. Freshley's and her delish cream filled cupcakes that are satisfying a serious craving right now.

Waffles to all the bishes at work that went to Chipotle for lunch and didn't ask the pregnant lady for her order.

TinkL0ver · September 2014

Huge waffle to SO. yes, nether of us slept great last night so we are both tired and cranky after my early morning PP visit (couldn't reschedule because kaiser sucks), I also know we both weren't able to eat this morning before the visit because we slept past the alarm but damn it when our daughter is screaming her head off and not latching at the boob because she is too hungry and I ask you to make a bottle don't fucking sigh dramatically, slap your knees with your hands and whine that you "just sat down to eat" guess what? so did I and I have a screaming baby in my arms and am trying not to cry. I'm not even asking you to feed her the fucking bottle, just to make it so I can calm her down. FFS I'm just so pissed off right now. (she did eventually latch after getting in a different possition, I guess she was just being kind of picky on how she ate, shes asleep now but he never did give me the bottle. Twat.)

dinodna3 · September 2014

Waffles and Tacos to DH, apparently it is impossible for him to come to bed without making the loudest noises possible. Then proceeds to always sleep in the middle of the bed on top of me. I am too damn hot and uncomfortable for that shit. But he gets tacos for being sweet and comforting when I started crying about how much pain because this baby is bursting at the seams in there.

mrsdanielleM2010 · September 2014

Waffles to the barista at Starbucks this morning who asked me if I was supposed to be drinking coffee. Fuck her. My answer was to raise the eyebrows and ask if she was supposed to be judging me.

mrsdanielleM2010 · September 2014

Tacos to my husband, whose response to my picture of swollen ankles after my first full real day of work since June was to suggest that maybe I stop working after this Friday instead of next. Alllll the tacos to him.

nilvero · September 2014

Twatwaffle: this crazy supplementing schedule we have going on right now. I mean it's working but it still sucks.

Tacos to DH. He has been incredible support while we've been trying to get baby boy's weight back up. He does the supplementing so that I can pump. He's just been awesome all around.

Oh and tacos to my phone for recognizing twatwaffle. Guess I've been mobile bumping for too long.

This is me. Is it BH? Is it the real deal? Is it just cramps? I CAN'T FREAKING TELL.

Right there with you ladies. They keep asking me and I have zero idea what it is I'm feeling. I feel like an idiot when I answer "no clue". I figured they can't really be the real thing if I can't really tell what is going on.... at least that is my hope, lol.

RedBaramid · September 2014

Tacos to ALL the ladies who listen to me bitch and moan on this board week after week. The amount of catharsis that occurs after I finally let some of the angry out of my system is amazing.

They finally called back and they have me going into the office tomorrow... however they get to keep their damn waffles for saying "If you start to feel at all like you did before you went up to L&D last night, the doctor wants you to drop everything and go straight there." Excuse me while I sip on my water and eat my crackers because that's all I'm keeping down today. :-q

str13 · September 2014

Tacos to DH for telling me that I should start maternity leave on Friday before my long work weekend!!

Waffles to asshole at work that asked if it was possible I'd gotten more pregnant!! I mean I'm good but not that good. Meanwhile while you think my belly looks hilarious, I get to carry it and myself around!!

Oops! Also tacos to sonic for having a PB milkshake!!

amom2four · September 2014

Went to l&d for preregistration today and walked in to see my doctor at the nurses station. She gets a surprised look on her face and asks in a worried way, "What are you doing here?" Tacos to her for being worried!

This kid needs to really and seriously stop with the hiccups and headbutts that causes him to continue beating the daylights out of the whole nether region. And I mean the whole area. So uncomfortable.

RedBaramid · September 2014

I nominate my mom for calling me less than 24 hours after getting home from the hospital to bitch at me for not already calling my grandparents. I told her my plan was to call yesterday afternoon and she still gave me an attitude. Of course then I started bawling my eyes out because hormones and lack of sleep, which made her mad for some reason. Dude, you just don't talk like that to someone who had a baby 3 days ago. It got me on a crying streak for basically an hour that I couldn't stop.

*********NOOOO Stuck in quote box!**********

Are they her parents? Tell her to suck and and call them herself, you were pretty busy (giving birth and recovering and all...) and I bet they will just be excited to hear about the baby and not even CARE you were too occupied to call them.

kaleb87 · September 2014

Waffles to my darn hormones. I totally cried on my way home from my doctor's appointment when mumford & sons I will wait for you came on the radio. I freaked out my dd who was sitting in her seat being good. I felt so bad when she said, "mommy you okay?"
Tacos to all those who recently had their little ones or are in labor. I feel like I can't keep up.
Also to the resident working in my doctor's office and letting me dd hold the Doppler to listen to the babies heartbeat, she thought that was awesome.

chardonnay24 · September 2014

Waffles to everyone who isn't pregnant right now.

Waffles to the teenager at the science museum that kept following me around and asking to touch my belly. I'm almost positive he was autistic and so I tried to be really understanding, as my own son is ASD, but I was getting really annoyed. He started following me and my kid to several exhibits, then just came up with his hands out and asked to touch my belly. I said no a couple times and told him my belly was tender and he kept trying to forcefully touch it anyway. Finally walked away, then came back and asked me a bunch of questions about my pregnancy, and asked several times to touch my belly again. I had to keep backing up and removing his hands. After a third time, I finally ran away to the 5 and under kid's play area and he sat there staring at me until my kid and I made our way to the back of the room. It was just a really weird experience.

ETA: And no tacos for anyone because I have been in a foul mood for the last several days.

amom2four · September 2014

@chardonnay24‌ I haven't had anyone trying to touch me like that, but it never fails that when dh and I go anywhere anyone with any kind of mental and/or developmental disability finds him and follows us everywhere, so I get it. Kinda. The touching would have totally skeeved me out. I worry about that when we are somewhere and run into his clients. (he works in a state run group home and the girls he works with are obsessed with him and dd2 and now the new baby) sounds like you are right about something being off with that kid and you handled it the right way!

Ivorytower2 · September 2014

Waffles to the dent removal service guy who literally followed me for an entire mile from the gym parking lot to my home to solicit me about his dent fixing business.

You serious bro?

To all the super pregnant mamas in pain who are holding it down for their peanuts on the inside- I'm buying you all tacos.

Ahlome08 · September 2014

So here's my second twat for the day: my best friend of 14 years who I only see once a year is coming down to visit with her husband and daughter for a week after baby is born. She asked if I wanted her to bring down nursing covers, and I politely declined saying I don't think I'll be needing them as I see nothing wrong with BF uncovered. She then had the audacity to basically say that I wasn't allowed to BF uncovered at MY HOUSE in front if her hubby because she didn't think he would be comfortable!! WTAF?!?! I get that people have different opinions in covering or not in public, but it's my damn house and I will do what I want to, damnit!!

Tacos to DH for completely agreeing with me

Ps: I'm kind of playing it by ear, but I have decided we've been friends too long for this to be a huge problem. I will just feed my baby in my room, out if her hubby's sight, and if she wants to socialize while I'm feeding LO, she can come upstairs. But I will not be forced to do something I don't want in my own home.

JD83 · September 2014

Waffles to the crazy ass preggo dreams...again. Last night I dreamed about some fight with DH and he left for a TDY while some friend "cleaned" my house and ended up stealing and selling all my expensive and/or sentimental shit. WTF, brain? So relieved when I woke up to realize it was a dream.

Tacos to DH for being just generally sweet and wonderful despite the lack of sex and mouth hugs.

Waffles to me for being so stingy with the mouth hugs. Scared to have sex right now because I'm still waiting on results from a BV swab and the NP said my cervix was "fried."

Waffles to my clinic for taking their sweet motherfucking time calling me with results. They were supposed to call me last Wednesday.

Ahlome08 · September 2014

@JD83‌ Lolol mouth hugs

mrsdanielleM2010 · September 2014

@monicavickery good luck!

RedBaramid · September 2014

@monicavickery I am pretty sure that is exactly what's getting ready to happen to me after all of my offices talk of my "elevated levels" of mystery. Good luck and FX it's something they can take care of quickly and easily.

amom2four · September 2014

Tacos to my mother!!! She went to a local produce stand and brought me a yellow watermelon! Here it is 11:30 and dh comes into the kitchen to find the toddler and I carving that sucker up. Best. Thing. Ever. I'm totally going to be up peeing all night between this and the 75oz of water I've had since 5pm. Oh well. Without a doubt worth it.

I also finished making my nursing cover and swing cover to hide the pink of dd's swing. I feel accomplished.
