My bitchfest is simply that it's Monday again! Ahhh I'd love to start leave early.
On another note, it's FIL's bday so we are getting together with family tonight. My sweet little niece is 1week old and will be there. Only problem is, I don't know how to hold a baby on my bump (or let alone hold a baby at all, I've never spent much time around them). The in laws make a HUGE deal out of it if I don't hold her. Pressure is on! Haha
Here's a picture of my last awkward interaction with little emilee. In my defense, I was talking as the picture was taken. She's so cute and I want to love on her but where does she go?!
@laurenbrnwed j feel the same way about holding other babies right now! My bump is so big and awkward that it's just not comfortable! Too bad they put pressure on you-that's not so nice.
My bitch is always the same. So i'm just gonna say that things with my husbands Grandma aren't looking up. You know, you've got passive aggressive, mixed with jealousy over the baby coming.. it's getting a tad ridiculous. So I've been doing my best to steer clear of the psycho, and continue to take care of myself and baby.
My Monday bitchfest is that since I'm on maternity leave starting today (DR pulled me due to high BP which I haven't had my entire pregnancy/stress at work) my husband and mom don't want me to go anywhere without someone. I have to run to the store for groceries and husband says he wants me to wait for him to get home. My mom wouldn't let me run to BBB the other day because she feels that I shouldn't be driving or at the store alone, so I'm stuck at home. Granted I can't complain about not being at work right now. It's SOO stressful there and I was having contractions all week only at work.
I *so* needed this post. I just need to bitch and complain about my aching pregnant body!
I think baby is pushing on some kind of nerve in my lower back, so I have the worst sciatica pain in my lower right hip / butt area... Walking totally sucks.
I've been up since 4:30 a.m. because I can sleep. My hips hurt and I feel huge and uncomfortable...
My bitch is about my other half. I've been complaining about how I just want the baby to get out of me (38w+ 4) and how uncomfortable, tired, huge, sore, unattractive etc I feel. His sole response: "well we should probably have sex then"....yes, that's the perfect solution given I feel like baby's trying to kick its way out of me and i can barely move without getting some pain or other...

@rhg1982 my DH has been the same! That's the last thing I'm interested in!
OK here's my rant for the day.. I realize that I've been cranky the last few days towards my mom (who has been at my place for the last week and a half) but it doesn't need to be pointed out throughout the day. She would be cranky too if she were being coddled all day by her and dh. Between the two of them the only time I get any alone time is when I take my baths, which is maybe 30 mins long because lo won't let me sit any longer than that. I'll be 37 weeks tomorrow and have been having early labor contractions since Thursday, which is not helping the fact that I'm so cranky.. I really just want this pregnancy to be over.
So today my husband was telling me, for the 1000000th time that he wants a family vacation as soon as baby's ready.. I always say, yea, ok, we'll see how she is is, she's our first, we will know if we can when she's here.. And i said basically the same things this time except he said, but i wanna travel with you and my response was so it's an option that you do without me? And he got pissed and said that he'll stop talking, then he texted me that he's been hating talking to me lately great thing to say to your 9 months pregnant wife isn't it?!
He left me TWICE during my pregnancy and traveled with his friends, last time when i was 7 months and this is what i get! I told him we should take 1 last couple vacation before having a baby but he was too excited so i went with it and then he leaves me and travels on his own while i'm suffering the amazing pregnancy symptoms. I know i've been moody and quiet lately but i'm 38 weeks pregnant damn it!!! It's so unfair that we do all that shit and they just put a sperm in us then they get to share the baby with us equally...
My rant is about my manipulative MIL who's really working on my husband to get more influence in how to raise our baby. She only speaks Italian, so there is a language barrier and I can't effectively put boundaries up. My DH doesn't understand how she's pushing and violating boundaries. He sees it as "help" whereas I feel that Push-pull that I get from a violation. I do and will appreciate help, it's her trying to tell me that the only way to care for our baby is her way. She's done it with her other son's baby and screams victim to anyone who will listen whenever they try to put any boundary in place.
Am so ready to have baby. At last apt, the midwife saw me (doc was delivering a baby) and she said I was just about 3 cm, 60-70% effaced.
I have had 4-5 ctx an hour steady for last 20 hours.
Today I see my doc who says I'm only 1.5 cm and 50% effaced.
Wtf. How did I REGRESS????
She seemed positive I only have 24-48 hours left, and I see her Wednesday to strip membranes if she can and if I'm even still pregnant (at 50% effaced, she couldn't even do that today...)
To top it off, 2.5 yo son has a mystery fever of 103, and my daughter is really having a hard time with all the change headed her way (new baby, house, car, booster, etc) and refuses to sleep. Her birthday is next week and I really want her to have her own special day- but right now she told me that she doesn't want to turn 4, and wants to stay 3 forever. :,( breaks my heart.
My midwife...I call her with real symptoms that seem like preterm labor and she tells me to drink more water. How is water going to help my back pain and severe nausea? I love the other midwives, but there are like two who seem so nonchalant about everything. I was bleeding a week ago and the "nurse" line (same lady) told be to drink more water. She did not think that I needed to be checked or anything. I know I am a FTM and I can be dramatic, but I just don't understand why they aren't more supportive and understanding. 4 more weeks...hurry up May!
Dang ladies I'm sorry, ya actually had a legitimate reason to bitch...
Mine is kinda dumb but 'WHO THE HELL STOLE MY DRUMSTICK ICECREAM FROM THE WORK'S FRIDGE?" My boss bought us icecream on Friday and since I have GD and ate kinda bad on Friday, I wanted to save it for today. When I got here it was still there, two hours later it was gone!!!!! Smh I was looking forward to eating that icecream!!! Oh well, maybe I don't need it.
Another rant, I had two appointments and was at doctor and specialist's office from 8:20am to 12:00 in the afternoon. I have to go to work afterward and had to walk half a mile to the office because parking was so dam bad. I'm making up time right now and I'm so tired and ready to go. Other than that, I'm good:)
2.5hrs commuting today because of weather. Totally unappreciated at work. Students play the "what if..." Game all day incessantly (example... What if your water breaks RIGHT now and the baby just comes falling out). MIL and FIL decided 2 weeks ago to get divorced right away, putting their only child, my DH, in a really uncomfortable spot. Bah hum bug.
DH and I got into a small argument a few minutes ago and now he's acting like a spoiled brat. He is adamant about staying in the same city/state that his dad and brother (both who hate me and have very little to do with me) rather than move closer to my parents who would include him and have always included him in everything.
I told him that our baby needs a sense of family and he said that we have that here. We don't...he has something to did with his brother, but even he doesn't like or get along with his dad. So...after Emily is born I'll only have her and him to interact with and not family.
I just want to go somewhere where not only me, but my daughter is important.
My SO isn't taking his job as birth coach or my birth plan seriously. He doesn't agree with me wanting to try a natural birth which makes no sense to me that he wouldn't want his child born without the aid of drugs. He keeps asking or suggesting that I get induced just because his ex (who cheated on him and it wasn't even his kid) did it. Her grandpa is a dr and also delivered her child so...He didn't take the birth class seriously. He was on his phone most of the time or making smart ass remarks and pretty much making me look like the stupidest woman in the world. And kept telling all his friends and family it was the biggest waste of his time when they asked about it. We took the maternity ward tour this weekenf and he had the same idgaf attitude. "Oh it's a room! I wouldn't have guessed that!" When we walk in. Every couple was walking next to each other or holding hands he was walking way ahead of me, not standing next to me, or was on his phone. So I asked my mom to be my other birth coach and he has the nerve to get offended. At this point I'm not even sure I want him in the room at all it seems he'll just be useless or piss me tf off.
Ha I really feel like my emotions and hormones are through the roof. Today we had a doctors appointment and waited 2 hours, not the longest I've waited but just got so irritated and doctor says she might come this week. She obviously doesn't know for certain but maybe. And that is great news because I'm so damn uncomfortable. MIL went to Florida not for a vacation but she will be gone for the rest of this week. And she keeps saying you can't have her now, wait till I come home. Like I'm so damn uncomfortable if she comes now I will be extatic. It's so stupid but between her and my hubby saying they want the baby to come in two weeks is really irritating me. Lol I feel like I'm already short tempered so I'm trying to keep my cool with my hubby, but everything he does annoys the shit out of me. And he's been nothing but amazing and a great help. I know you shouldn't blame it on the hormones but it totally is. Lol I'm like a demon right now!!!! Lol not a huge problem but nice to vent
That's why I posted my post so hopefully give people inspiration so there is less posts but I don't think it's going to work might actually make more posts appear :-/ ... I've noticed a lot of 'rant here posts' lately too so I'll add that to my Monday bitch and also
Why would someone post a pic of there mucus plug ewwww there was no way I was clicking on that!

And I totally thought quoting the text meant the whole thing @khaleesi123
I don't really have anything to bitch about, more of an "OMG what are you thinking?" story.
My neighbors are a big family that just moved in a few months ago. We haven't talked to them (I don't think they speak English) but one of them is pregnant and I think she's about as far along as I am. They must've had a baby shower recently because they have a pick up truck and the bed was suddenly full of boxes of diapers and a car seat. It looked like it was just thrown in. Anyway today there was a huge storm and everything in it was soaked and ruined. DH just came back inside after picking up some fallen tree branches and he said the neighbors were getting the car seat out and brought it inside! I would be so wary of putting my baby in a car seat that had been thrown in the back of a pickup truck, left outside for a week, and then rained on!
Dang ladies I'm sorry, ya actually had a legitimate reason to bitch...
Mine is kinda dumb but 'WHO THE HELL STOLE MY DRUMSTICK ICECREAM FROM THE WORK'S FRIDGE?" My boss bought us icecream on Friday and since I have GD and ate kinda bad on Friday, I wanted to save it for today. When I got here it was still there, two hours later it was gone!!!!!

Uhm you are NOT the only one protective over your food. Believe me! I started writing my name on all of my foods that I want. To me, if you take a pregnant ladies food, you are the worlds biggest ass hole. I'm really passionate about my things being MY things.
Really want to switch obgyns as they just suck. Moody nurses, dismissive obgyn. Hopefully they let me schedule the delivery with the partner doctor since I'm scheduled to be induced in two weeks. That would make me happy. The doctor won't run any tests on me when I ask to be tested for various things and just asks me what I've had for breakfast --I'm super tempted to tell him that I ate a watermelon--- whole. The nurse messed up my FMLA paperwork & then was annoyed when I was asking her questions about it to see if it could be fixed. Please pray or send good vibes, I'm going to need it to get through tomorrow without telling them all off.....

RIGHT ON SISTA!!!! Girl I went out to eat at this one yummy Thai restaurant with hubby and his sisters. One sister asked me if I want to share my bowl of my favorite noodle, ummmm no I'm pregnant and I'm eating for two. How rude!!!! Don't ever ask a pregnant woman to share her food unless she is the one to offered. Maybe I was hormonal because I was always willing to share before I got pregnant, but yeah don't ask me for my food while I'm with child.

Bah hum bug.
Hahahaha! My high school students are so helpful that way too....one class feels them delivering the baby would be the best.thing.ever. Since you know, they just 'fall out'. This is after our trip to the Science Centre to watch the film 'The Human Body' that includes a birth. lol. Kids. I won't even go through THEIR suggested name lists. But, it's amusing at the least.
Everyone keeps asking me if I think I will have the baby early & if I could predict THAT---I would make it really dramatic. Just saying.
Yes. This. The phone calls are starting. "Do you think you'll go early? Have you lost your mucous plus? Have you dropped?" I hate all of those questions.
Getting sick of my grandmother pushing her two sense into my pregnancy. My aunt was feeling little man move and at this point he's so big all he can really do is push and squirm. Grandma has to bud in and tell me I better be careful and not encourage baby to move because he could end up breech. When I tried to explain to her that baby was way to big to turn and that he's been head down for months now, she says "oh honey...you kids have no idea how this whole pregnancy thing works"...i wanted to scream at her. This is my second pregnancy and yes I'm pretty aware of the giant head putting pressure on my crotch. She also hates the way we are spelling this little guys name..!!!!!I wish we hadn't told anyone. I'm just tiered of everyones opinions.
Oh and parents of my students! ....one mom proceeded to tell me all the ways I need to try to make myself go into early labor because I'm just so huge. One of which was that I needed to have lots of sex with my hubby and that he should try nipple stimulation on me. Freaking eeewww do not ever need to hear a parent of any of my students tell me about sex ever ever again !
Oh and one more thing... my husband's snoring keeps me up all nite... like I don't have enough issues keeping me up!!!
Same here! Sometimes I have to leave and sleep in our guest bed to get some sleep. If he sleeps somewhere else, I only wake up once to pee but if we sleep in the same bed, I get up 3-4 times now! I have trouble falling asleep without him though so I can't win. :P
God I need an everyday bitch fest. I'm so serious right now. I'm in the worst mood possible, and why you ask? I'm so fucking tired of every little thing going wrong. and of course it happens right before baby arrives. Our water bill $444 because grandma likes to leave the toilet running (we have a toilet issue to where we have to make sure the plug goes all the way down.) But she swears she make a sure every single time. So I just walked upstairs and the fucking toilet is running! Really?! My MIL insists on being annoying as well, just for the fun of it. I won't go into detail because it's a long story. And now dh grandma is alwaaaaays commenting "think you're pregnant enough? Haha" bitch! "Think you're old enough?!" I've about had it.
My bitchfest is I want my nice behaved toddler back. He turns two on Saturday and has the terrible twos phase down pat. I don't know if he can sense big changes coming. He's been refusing his naps making him miserable, getting into everything he knows he's not supposed to and constantly testing me. With the lack of sleep and dealing with him, I'm exhausted by the time my older son gets home from school so I've been turning on the tv a lot more then I usually do. And of course I've procrastinated getting all baby stuff done and cleaning so I've been overwhelmed with that. 38 weeks today and can't wait to be done with this pregnancy. Tried going to the park yesterday and the 30 minute walk had me in agony for the rest of the evening.
30 minute commuter train delay this morning and a 20 minute delay this afternoon has translated into a 3 hour commute today. Ready to burst into tears. So jealous of you ladies that get to leave work before your due date.
Had a rough night of getting up to pee every 45 minutes, which makes me a cranky, tired lady at work today. If I could just hide in my office all day, everything would be OK, but I have to go hunt down the director of the building for approvals, all while dodging the most annoying question of all "you haven't had that baby yet?" (!!!!). Obviously, I have a watermelon under this dress, but every staff member, every patient, and every guest seems to think they need to point out that I am huge and that I should have had this baby already.
