WTF midwife? So like I said in my TMI Tuesday, my midwife has been getting on my case about having intercourse. Today, I had my appointment and while my cervix was softer, it wasn't to her liking. She asked me if I was having intercourse and after telling her about my failed attempts at intercourse, she said that maybe I could just lay down with my hips up and "catch his sperm in there somehow"? She is really obsessed with idea of getting sperm on my cervix! LOL!
Wtf daycare. We submitted our paperwork months ago, you put him on the list and told us to contact you when we had him. DH called Monday. Today we get an e-mail... He is #41 on the infant waiting list. We kinda need a place to put him on 1 January. Wtf? Now we have make new plans??? At 6 weeks out? Stupid military.
Oh now I'm nervous we don't know if we are going to need childcare yet but I totally forgot to put in my paperwork! Guess we will need to look elsewhere as well
OMG @bethas. That is my worst nightmare! I actually had a bad dream about daycare a few days ago. We started looking for daycare last May and the daycare we chose said they had a spot reserved for us for March and to let them know when DS or DD is born. I keep thinking, what if they forget about us and we lose our place? It was so long ago!
YIKES! Best of luck to you! I hope you find a good place for your little one!
WTF body? I had two, /two/ particularly strong contractions last night... and then no more. Strong enough that I was put in mind of labor with my second son. But no more.
/Except/ that they clearly moved her further down, because I can barely walk today and I can feel the pressure of her head on my pelvic bones and tailbone.
Wtf hospital why can't I go home? We have to wait until 1 to do Rubys bloodwork and then we are just waiting for my doctor to sign the discharge orders So we can leave. The nurse told me the doctor may not be able to sign them until 6 or 7 pm?! What the actual fuck, everything is filled out and done they just need signed!!!!! I haven't gotten to leave this 10x20 room in three days I'm going insane and hubby tells me to shut up and stop complaining. He just might die.
Can you send the baby to the nursery and go for a walk? Where I delivered, the babies aren't allowed to leave the maternity unit but I could. After two days of barely leaving the room, I sent DS to the nursery and DH abs I explored the hospital. It was nice.
@bethas Did you offer to write them a check now? I was told there was a long wait list but when I pulled out my checkbook and offered to pay for the first month (February) months early in October a spot miraculously opened up.
@WildFlower810 That sucks. Hopefully the soak took care of it. I haven't bought anything new for this baby except a coming home oufit and I feel kind of bad about it too. Not sure where you bought them but children's place, gymboree, gap and old navy are all having sales according to my emails this am. Maybe you could pick a few things up on sale so you'll have a couple new things without feeling bad for spending a lot?!

If you can't find a real daycare you could always try some in home day cares. Most states make the care taker be certified and trained so it's not just a random person. There are usually also less kids at them so they get more one on one time.
@WildFlower810 Thanks for the info about Carter's. I think I know what DD and I will be doing aftet naptime. I don't have either kiddo any holiday shirts/outfits at all yet.
-Referring to my daughter as your "Christmas Angel" and your "rock" and "Strength" on facebook is making me gag. Seriously, lose the cheese. -Also, FB related - must you make every picture or status I post about C about you? -One last FB vent - we have asked the grandmas to ask us before posting pictures of C and have been tagging them in pics so they have some for their friends to see. Why did both grandmas then make pictures of her their profile/cover pics. One would think they would've asked first, considering those pictures are public and the whole point is that we don't want our daughter all over Facebook.
Basically, I need to quit facebook because it annoys the piss out of me.
WTF emissions center being closed due to "extreme weather?" I ran a 5k last year in this weather and was just fine. Wusses.
WTF with no desire to do anything now that I don't have to go to emissions or motor vehicles? Baby will be here anytime now and the to do list won't take care of itself?
WTF not being able to drink enough water to stay hydrated? A) I'm drinking a ton and drinking a ton is hard because I have so little room
@mander82 Ughhh I feel your pain!!!! I am in the same boat. Cramps, pressure, random contractions and crap coming out of my vag for the past week is making me really stabby.
@Ineedmorecoffee Pretty sure this waiting is going to kill me.....lol. In addition to my body giving me a hard time, all the comments from people at work is making me allllll kinds of stabby! I really didn't think I would make it this far when I had people asking me "any day now huh?" like 3 months ago......sigh!!!
I have never wanted the worst pain of my life to happen so badly before!!!!

@mander82 right!? It's kind of funny that we are essentially wishing to be in pain. It's just annoying to be in this waiting game. And yeah, the comments from everyone constantly are beyond annoying!
I feel like today is just going to be one big WTF for me. Actually, the last week and a half...
WTF unending hunger? I'm being lazy as all get out but feel like I could eat all the food in the house.
WTF chiropractor? Don't you know family emergencies aren't allowed? We had an appointment at 10. It got pushed to 3. And then that got canceled. Now I'll need to go twice tomorrow to get my mom in three times this week
WTF dogs? It's 6 degrees out w/o wind chill and icy under the snow, can you please just be lazy today? I really don't want to walk you in this weather.
WTF to the patron that congratulated me on bringing new life into this world and then told me "good luck, because this world is fucked". Gee thanks, Captain Buzzkill. Leave me the eff alone.
WTF people who just can't realize that I've had baby last night so I'm not in the mood to have you call and be a super needy about your role with my child. Your a co-worker who I've hung out with a few times outside of work. Stop being so needy.
I've been holding this in and when I get around to posting a birth story I'd really like to keep it positive. Sorry so long, this is quite the rant!
So: WTAF to the father and his family?!? 1. W slept literally from the time I checked into the hospital until the full next day when he left to go to work. He tried to rub my neck through one contraction before the epi and I told him to fuck off. He was also awake for the 20 minutes of pushing after my best friend through a pillow at him and told him he was having a baby. He told me he was nervous and didn't want to pass out so he just slept.
2. I personally called his dad and told him not to drive the 3 hours here until baby was born. His dad, step mom, and step sister show up 30 minutes before visiting hours are over and plop down for a visit bc W told them they could. He also sent away the team that came to break my water WITHOUT asking me bc his dad was there. I AM LABORING WITH NO PAIN MEDS THE KID ISN'T HERE THIS ISN'T A TIME FOR A SOCIAL CALL!
3. The team comes back and I ask his family to leave. They say they are going to wait in the waiting room. Whatever you aren't getting back in here. I wanted my mom and best friend and I was mistakenly nice enough to let W in on the experience. They leave I tell W to get my mom so I'm not by myself when they break my water. He instead walks his dad out and I'm left alone for the whole process. My mom was livid.
4. W tells me to put Connor in the bassinet and get some sleep instead of holding him. He gets mad when I don't bc now I would be to tired and would sleep through his dad coming the next day. Again, fuck you. My concern right now is not entertaining your damn family!!!!
TL;DR - instead of worrying about me during labor and delivery the father was more concerned about himself and his family seeing the baby than me.
WTF people who just can't realize that I've had baby last night so I'm not in the mood to have you call and be a super needy about your role with my child. Your a co-worker who I've hung out with a few times outside of work. Stop being so needy.
I don't even know them, and am seriously side-eyeing them. Wtf is wrong with people?
She's very needy and seems to think we have stronger relationship then we do. She reminds me of an insecure middle school student who needs constant reassurance that she did well. I've limited my interactions with her and she gets super clingy at times.
wtf MIL! i'm breastfeeding my baby regardless that you think it's selfish and you won't get to feed him. he's my baby not yours. get a hobby! not my baby!
@MissN06 - I have a work friends just like that ! Omg. So annoying.
@schrijiver - WTAF!?! I have no words except F him!! What a selfish jerk. He deserves a good kick in the junk.
@foodieforlife - You aren't the first person to say that. Wtf is wrong with people thinking it is their RIGHT to feed someone else's child? Selfish, selfish, selfish. Yeah, she needs a hobby.
@schrijiver OMG he needs more than a kick to the balls, I'm thinking castration? He really F***** up and sadly I'm guessing he is too stupid to even comprehend that. I'm sorry you had to deal with that and hope that LO will do a sufficient job or distracting you from W being so awful.
WTF perineal massage? How are you supposed to work? I don't get you.
Here here to that. I couldn't reach down there myself and when DH did it, I always felt like I got punched in the vag the next day, so we gave up after about two weeks of me walking around in pain. Oh well!
Re: WTF Wednesday
That really sucks @bethas. I hope you can find another place soon!
WTF heart palpitations?
And a BIG WTF to having both combined.
I'm not liking today. Hopefully I get some good news at my appt later.

WTF baby get out of my belly.
WTF work, stop acting like I am not going to be out for 6 weeks any day now. I am not going to be here soon, get used to the idea now.
WTF people, stop asking me if I am still here. OBVIOUSLY I AM.
