Only got 4 hours of sleep last night and of course it was all broken up. DH then attempts to ask if we can consider having sex soon.....um no. I can't even sleep an entire night then take care of our two kids while you're at work, pick you up from work, make dinner and then get two kids wrangled for bed. You'll get sex when I get sleep.
H is back at work so I have baby by myself all night. Last week we had a great first night back. Last night was punishment for my optimism. Baby spent all day sleeping, and then decided to be up from 9:45 till 2:00 AM. Finally got him down and he was up again 45 min later. I didn't think he could be hungry already after all he had previously eaten, so I spent almost an hour of sleep deprived stupidity trying to get him to take his Nuk instead of just feeding him. Finally fed him and he went back to sleep for 3 hours. Then hubby got home from work and got pissed that I made him take a turn. You are already awake you ass! Feed him and get him back to sleep.
Why can't my DH put his spoon/bowl/cup in the dishwasher? It's just as easy to put it there than in the sink. I try to keep the sink empty during the day, I don't feel like having to put one thing extra in the dishwasher while cleaning up the kids' breakfast/lunch dishes.
Also DH...when you do put things in the dishwasher, stop putting light plastic stuff on the bottom rack!! It flips over and doesn't get clean, just full of water. Which he doesn't realize first hand since I always unload it (which I'm fine with...just believe me when I tell you it happens).
I am sick and tired of my cat ruining everything we own. He scratches everything except his scratching post. Our couch is totally destroyed and i don't want anything new because he will just ruin it. I have tried softpaws, sprays, spray water bottle, given him scratching posts all to no avail. I love him but he is a jerk.
My 2 yr old is killing me. Just fing put on your god damn clothes!
Also @Valancyy I can totally relate to your DH rant. My DH does that. Sometimes he will even put the bowl in the dishwasher but leave the spoon in the sink. Why?!? Seriously it is too much extra effort to just put the spoon in too?! Ugh.
@SoSayWeAll ugh!! My cat does that too! And she knocks over the freaking water bowl!
My bitch- Luke ate 2oz this morning and preceded to spit all of it back up..on me, and him. Also, every time I eat something he starts crying. SERIOUSLY?! Can I please take 10 minutes to eat so I don't pass out?

I can relate. This may be more of a FFFC...but the day after the baby came home our cat ran away (we think). He was an indoor/outdoor cat, and he just took off and never came home. It's been almost 2 months. We're not sure what happened to him.
I am guiltily excited that we will be able to buy new living room furniture since he's gone. We kept saying no new furniture until we no longer have pets because they just ruin it. We're waiting to make sure he's really not coming back, but once winter hits and he's still gone, we're getting new furniture.
I feel bad that I don't feel more bad that he's gone. He was our "baby" before we had kids. I just wish I knew what happened to him. We got him as a kitten right after we got married, he was six years old. We just had less time for him once the kids came. The kids loved him though, they have asked about him, less and less as time goes by though.
@Valancyy That is sad that he ran away like that Our cat was our first baby too; we got him right after we got married almost 7 years ago. I feel guilty that I haven't had much time for him since DS was born. He has always been more attached to DH though.
My bitch is I called my work to see what position they have for me. And they have one, a great one. I'm bitchy cause that means I have 2 weeks left with LO and that I was secretly hoping they wouldn't have anything so I could stay home....even though we need my income. Ugh I want maternity leave forever!
@BabyM82714 I want maternity leave forever too! I was ok with being a working mom until he was actually born. Too bad I am the main breadwinner of our family ( I am hoping I feel differently when I actually go back to work. I cry thinking about it.
My DH thought it was appropriate to put himself into a NyQuil coma on Saturday night. I was the one who was up with C all night on Friday...and DH doesn't even sleep in the same room as me and C (and Otis our dog). I know he can't help in the middle of the night since he can't feed her, and I am happy that someone can get some sleep when she is having a bad night...but don't rub it in. Oh, and if you take a NyQuil coma night then you can hold the baby for three hours during the day while I take a nap. Everything has a trade off.

My bitch is a little grim and is about cancer/ultrasounds.
Last Wednesday my mom got diagnosed with breast cancer. She got diagnosed after the ultrasound place had told her it was just scar tissue. Her doctor did a biopsy anyway and it was cancer. This is her second time using this place - last year they checked out another lump and told her it was scar tissue. No biopsy was done then, so now I'm worried that was really cancer too. To top it off they screwed up her MRI too, so now she has to go get another one done before she can get surgery.
This is a center and not just one person. Seriously, how do you keep making a shitty situation worse? Ugh.
@Shiva14 I'm sorry to hear about your mom. I'll keep her in my thoughts and prayers. Is there anyone else she could go see?
Yes, she is using a different center for the second MRI after all of this happened. It is over two hours away but of course that doesn't matter at this point. And thank you for your T&Ps!

Yikes. I am so sorry about your mom. T&Ps for you all.
Moved into a rental house back in May. 4 months later and we've had cockroaches, a million earwigs, crickets, and get this- now mice!! We are clean people so I am super pissed. If landlord doesn't let us leave I'll be so angry. I'm not trying to fight off mice with a newborn. F that. And f landlord if he suggests buying out the lease.
I am SO sick of hearing DH say Sleep when the baby sleeps. Listen buddy I was up 4 times last night for an hour each time. You got up once and didnt even get an extra ounce for DSs bottle so I still had to bf after it. LO doesnt sleep well during the day at all and every time I go to nap he wakes up. Stop telling me to frieking nap when thats all I try to do in life. And today he follows up with I dont want to hear it. Really?! You get up all night and nap when the baby naps. Grrr Im fuming. Edit: spelling
Gahh my hubby tells me to nap when the baby naps too! I was up every hour with the baby last night too! It's easier said than done.
I am sick of being sweaty and covered in milk. It's the worst smell. I'm sick of wearing tanks and gym shorts. I'm ready to have a reason to dress up a bit to go out.
I'm also so tired. If one kid isn't up, it's the other. Ds1 was up at 5:30 am. I'm going to bed early tonight.
What not to do to a sleep deprived and stressed out new mom who's still trying to figure out how to be a mom: Continuously request we start working on a second child while essentially humping my leg. I'm running away from home.
I'm trying to start pumping to build a stash. Every time I pump, LO decides to cluster feed and I have to give her the bottle I just pumped. WTF!
This is my life right now too. And now we have thrush, so the stash is on hold again. I have to go back to work in Nov and am panicking that I won't be able to save up.
LO is constantly on my boob. He's always hungry and my nipples hurt so fricken bad. DH says just give him formula since we do supplement maybe once a day but then I'd still have to pump so I don't hurt my supply because I barely keep up as it is. Ugh why can't men breastfeed too if nothing else but to understand how hard this is

I guess I can't win.

Or do your stupid laundry, or the baby's laundry, or do the dishes, or wash bottles, or plot to kill you.
I'm also so tired. If one kid isn't up, it's the other. Ds1 was up at 5:30 am. I'm going to bed early tonight.
