Pathetic Pregnancy Moments

Miz_Liz · May 2015

So I just read a news article about a guy who called 911 because he was unhappy with his McDonald's order - he got the wrong chicken sandwich and then when he bit into it there was a bone. The pathetic part is, rather than thinking, "What a flipping moron," like any normal person would think, my first thought was, "Man I really want a chicken sandwich now!" (and I am about to order one, not from McDonalds though, far too lazy to drive, need delivery). What have you said/thought/done this pregnancy that made you stop and go, "Wow, I am pathetic?"

I started crying a couple days ago because I offered my husband half of my brownie sundae and he ate half. I thought he would know me enough to know I was only offering half to be polite and he would say no. He was very confused. I kept saying he "didn't know me at all" and was "taking nutrients from our baby." Yeah. All the nutrients in a BROWNIE SUNDAE. Pregnancy has turned my brain into a crazy factory. ^#(^

The lab at the hospital lost my order for a 1 hour glucose test and CBC so after sitting for 45 minutes while everyone was helped but me, I went to the window in tears blubbering about how I hadn't even been given my glucola yet. Then when they realized they had made a mistake and kept apologizing, I sat there like a crazy woman crying drinking my orange drink. I kept thinking "people have real problems, get it together!!!"

I can't bend over anymore. I almost cried when I dropped my donut and couldn't pick it up. I was more upset that it couldn't be picked up rather than, "wow I really shouldn't eat this donut that fell on the floor..." I still really wanted the donut.

I watched a dog doing tricks on a show and started crying because the dog was so cute and clever and I wanted one.

carleym93 · May 2015

@Miz_Liz Whoa whoa whoa... first of all, who calls 911 over a sandwich? Secondly, how do you get a chicken sandwich delivered?! I have never heard of such a glorious thing 8->

This made me giggle because I had a similar experience. At first when I read this post I couldn't think of anything until I read examples, then I thought yup I crazy train too.

The other night my husband asked me if he made popcorn should he make enough for both of us. I think I told him something a long the lines of "I don't know". Well I fell asleep and then woke up when I heard him making popcorn. I went out in the kitchen to see if he left me a bowl and he didn't so I asked why he didn't make me any. He said because he didn't think I wanted any, but he would share his with me. Mind you., I'm half asleep. So I took the bowl from him and started to walk away taking a bite when I realized he had put cheese on it. I said "there's cheese on this yuck" and then handed him the bowl back, I guess I didn't hand it to him very nicely because I spilled popcorn on him! Oops! I said I was sorry and went to bed. Then the next morning I told him I was sorry, I wasn't very nice when I woke up. I'm generally not very nice when I wake up out of a sound sleep, I need to work on this. So there's my crazy pregnancy moment!

@carleyec93 I ordered a chicken finger sub from the local pizza place that delivers - it was amaze-ballz!!!!

gmd88 · May 2015

I just feel really pathetic when I look up my flight of stairs and have to give myself a pep talk before going up them... Meh.

allsmilz82 · May 2015

I literally had tears in my eyes when I discovered that KFC had forgotten my honey to go with my biscuit. I even asked the guy if he put honey in the bag. Not that I should be eating KFC anyways.....

laurena612 · May 2015

Got out the shower and wanted to bend down to dry my legs but my big belly was in the way so I tried putting my clothes on with my legs still a bit wet which made them stick and I got all flustered and angry with myself flailing around everywhere grr I just wanted to put clothes on. had a complete meltdown and my hubby just watched the whole thing and told me I was crazy which made me want to punch him. Urgh I'm so lame.

toccoaparker · May 2015

Me hiding from my kids when I have ice cream and don't want to share, pregnancy fail:(

lifesabeach85 · May 2015

My husband had to Buckle my shoes for me. Like I was 3. I could not bend far enough to do it myself on my favorite pair of strappy sandals. Dad practice I guess?

akumatora · May 2015

I cried today because my husband wouldn't take me to the pool to go swim and float around. Talk about a pathetic diva moment.

Had the exact same thing happen. Only we were at the mall and I was shopping for shoes for a wedding. So yeah, at least 10 people witnessed my husband putting my shoes on for me. On the bright side, I did feel a little bit like Cinderella.

Saratiff · May 2015

I dropped my pen today.... Twice. It took me like three tries each time to pick it up. The second time a cute attending picked up
For me.... lol never felt so silly in my life

sarahmu7 · May 2015

I cried during my interview for a new position. So I guess that promotion is out the window. Oh well. There's always next time.

Haha I had my husband do the same thing!

deviduke412 · May 2015

I had a meltdown the other night because I am in the middle of reading too many books and have a list of books to read but not enough time. Then the next day I proceeded to add more to my list and my husband looked at me like I was crazy bc how I just acted the night before lol.

Reading this made me tear up. Idk why but I feel like I would have bawled my eyes out too.

emmacake08 · May 2015

thanks @Robin910 I felt like the craziest woman ever!

lolagurlx0x0 · May 2015

Ive had a few. One was at Olive Garden, I got incredibly upset because of the amount of food they were bringing out, I kept saying "WHO IN THE WORLD COULD EAT THIS MUCH" lol This was before the entree had even come. My mom kept looking at me like WHO is this woman. 2nd one that comes to mind was when we went through a drive through, 1st taco bell, who had all these feature menu items, but didn't have any of them, so we left and went to Jimmy John's. Where i ordered a slim sandwich and asked them to put mayo on it, and they told me I'd have to pay 1.35 more for that, I lost it. My boyfriend STILL will lose it and laugh, & randomly proclaim "'I'M NOT PAYING $1.35 FOR MAYONNAISE"'

countryrhodes90 · May 2015

I yelled at my husband for accidentally throwing away some garden supplies and then came back inside and cried about it. Then I cried because I didn't feel like cleaning the house before we had some friends over. My husband keeps telling me how big I'm getting and that made me cry too. I've been a basket case

Thrashn · May 2015

Crazy pregnancy me wasn't invited to a gathering of friends and the same people didn't show up when I threw one of my own to make up for it. So I deleted everyone and our mutual friends from Facebook, and if they didn't read my mind and keep up via phone, I don't talk to them anymore.

emshredder · May 2015

I was at the memorial day parade and it was in the morning and as my SO and I walked to our chairs we set up we passed this guy on a grill with bacon, eggs and donuts. I kept telling my SO to go get me a donut and he kept saying he didn't think they were for sale but I kept seeing people walk away with plates. Finally he goes down to get me one but when he came back he had no donut. He said that they weren't selling them. I just started bawling. We were with his family and they all thought it was hilarious but I couldn't stop crying haha. When I calmed down these people in the parade were giving out pens. I started bawling again and looked at my SO and said I just love pens. At that point I knew it was going to be a long day.

Ha, my DH did this for me just this weekend.

My husband and I went with his family to Ikea. We walked around the store for a few hours and I noticed that there was this other pregnant lady in the store with her friends. She looked cute and energetic and was practically doing cartwheels through the store. While I looked sweaty and barely waddled from one available chair to the next. My husband turned to me and said "that pregnant girl sure can move." I instantly started tearing up and then took on the challenge of being energetic and peppy the rest of the way through Ikea. Well, after HOURS of walking and lying to everyone that I didn't need to sit down, my husband went to hold my hand and he couldn't get his fingers passed my first knuckle. I had gotten so swollen from being stubborn. I instantly started bawling and said "I can't be like that pregnant girl and hold your hand." He apologized and said he'd rather hold my hand and that he really liked walking slow with me. Haha it's easy to laugh at now.

staciedw · May 2015

I've had a few , but the one that comes to mind was towards the end of my first trimester. We were running late for a wedding. I had bought the dress the week before and it fit fine. When I tired to zip the dress I couldn't zip it. So I asked my husband to try thinking the zipper was stuck. Well he broke the zipper. I sat on the floor crying trying to fix the zipper for about an hour. We ending up missing the ceremony and went straight to the reception. I saftey pinned the dress and wore a sweater.

j&gmiller2015 · May 2015

Yesterday I went to the grocery store and for some reason really wanted nacho cheese Doritos with pickles-yes together. So my husband works the night shift and when he came home at 3 this morning he ate half the bag of Doritos. I was so f***ing pissed when I woke up. I left him a note telling him I was mad because now I had this whole jar of pickles and only half a bag of Doritos to go with it. When he woke up he just txted me a ?. I don't even know how to explain my pathetic behavior to him now

I would cry over that too. maybe even when I'm not pregnant. I just really love donuts lol

melanier26 · May 2015

pretty early on in pregnancy I was craving a really good salad but we didn't have veggies so my husband told me to pick a restaurant that would have it and we could get it to go. I couldn't think of anywhere that would have the exact salad I wanted so I was all worked up and crying. finally I decided to try one fast food place where you can build your own salad, but when I started ordering I realized that they charged extra for pretty much every topping I wanted so I started crying again. my poor husband had no idea what to do. he is amazing though and we ended up going to the store and buying veggies and he made the most amazing salad ever

amtippey · May 2015

After the third time Braum's didn't have Pecan Pralines and Cream ice cream over a couple week period, I devolved into a blubbering mess. Something about how living without Blue Bell was torture enough, and now Braum's, and I don't WANT anything else! Talk about first world problems.

ginger8484 · May 2015

I have a couple , so here is two examples. One: last night my pillows was pissing me off lol.... So I asked my partner to help and he did, but I was so pathetic and emotional that I looked like a whale and slapping the walls lol he was like" I don't know what the slapping of the walls mean" I guess you know who the princess is lol... Then , I was upset about the patriots and how I thought It was wrong of Brady to do what he did and the whole team. My partner and I was at the restataunt discussing this and I started to get emotional . I mean what's up with that??! Really , you want to get emotional because they weren't playing fair and they ruined football for you. Talk about problems .

abmommy15 · May 2015

I got super mad at my husband because we ran out of Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal. The box was in the pantry but there was almost none left. The pathetic part is that he doesn't eat it, I do and he doesn't do the grocery shopping, I do.... he would have absolutely no way of knowing that we were almost out. Thank goodness he is super supportive and patient with my crazy and actually apologized for the situation. When rational me finally came back I asked him why on earth he would apologize for something so obviously my fault and his response was classic "babe I had two options - deny that it was my fault and risk really crazy scary wife or apologize, accept the blame ride out the crazy and tell myself that in 9 weeks I will have my wife back"

visualcircus · May 2015

I was about to start crying because I was trying to weight my car for a military move and they told me to press the button.. but it was 8 ft high and I thought, "Isn't it obvious I'm pregnant and short and can't reach a button 8 ft off the ground meant for trucks????" I was about to give up weighing my car and go home after that.

My second moment was I started hyperventilating because the GPS wasn't updated for some recent roadwork and I got routed downtown and stuck in traffic where I wasn't sure which lane to be in (7 lanes here at some points). I think what exasperated the pathetic moment was my longing for Chick Fil A and this delayed my chicken fix by 20 minutes!

jessandandy09 · May 2015

I have oh so many. here are a few...

I decide to cook dinner the other night and surprise my DH ( I had given him the afternoon off of caring for our daughter and he went to play golf) the kiddo and I went to the store, got what I needed to make impossible cheeseburger pie and roasted green beans and a no-bake cheese cake. Then she and I started cooking. There were no fucking eggs in the house. NONE. DH had used the last of them 2 days ago and had not bought more (he is a SAHD & usually does the shopping) I cried and then screamed and then when he got home I stubbornly pouted the rest of the evening.

I saw a bug on our bed the other night and now refuse to sleep in our bedroom. I always have bug phobias, but this is way out of control with my hormones. Also somehow the fact that bugs exist is DH's fault.

I had to get 2 teeth ( 1 damaged molar and 1 wisdom tooth) pulled and I behaved like a toddler about it. I kicked my feet and screamed and cried when they pulled them. The dentist tried to tell me "that doesn't hurt, I numbed you" my only answer "like hell it doesn't" and more irrational crying.

DH got groceries last night. He asked what I wanted for breakfast. He did NOT get bananas, he did NOT get peaches, he did NOT get tangerines, he only got apples. I cried this morning and told him he only cared about his fruit needs.

I do this when I'm not pregnant! If it wasn't for my husband's rational ways we would have a zoo by now!

GirlOnTheBeach · May 2015

Last week I got a phone call saying I had gestational diabetes. As soon as I got home, pulled the car into the garage, and saw DH working by his truck, I started sobbing. Full on ugly crying. I was just so upset that people would think I was eating unhealthy and that's why I got the diagnosis. Especially since I had been trying so hard to do everything right.

Also, I've been totally depressed for two days because both of my friends have had their babies this week. One is my best friend (other than DH) and she chose a c section because she was tired of not sleeping well. She's super low risk and has acted like she has so many problems this whole pregnancy, while minimizing all my truly high risk problems (2 years of infertility, 2 miscarriages, low progesterone, anemia, placenta previa, bicornuate uterus, low blood counts, and now GD). I'm happy for her but frustrated she's had it so easy and gets to have her baby before me. Also, our second miscarriage was due last week and she has spent the week telling me how great it feels to know she is "finally" going to be a mom and to just wait until it's my turn and get to feel the same way. I just try to keep reminding myself that I finally have a baby that is going to make it and that it doesn't matter who has their baby when. But, irrational pregnant me keeps getting angry/depressed that I have to listen to all kinds of inaccurate advice from her about pregnancy/birth and now parenting just because she went first.

breezymeema7 · May 2015

@GirlOnTheBeach totally justifiable pregnancy breakdown moment. Sorry you have had such a rough week and I'm sorry your friend was so inconsiderate especially during such an emotional time. >>hugs<<
