Whats your Current Gripes and annoyances...

skschnake · June 2015

Hey ladies, just wanted to see what your current gripes are

Mine are :

- feeling sick to my stomach most of the day

-not wanting to eat ( nothing sounds good )

-being worried and impatient about first Dr. visit next week

-read for vacation but worried about being sick the whole time !

purplepenguin3 · June 2015

My big one is just like yours...I feel sick most of the day unless i'm eating constantly! I don't want to gain any weight in the 1st trimester (or as little as possible). I've never felt this way before, but i just need to eat!

brushesnbrunch · June 2015

I don't want to eat either. Nothing sounds appealing but I know I have to and force myself to swallow. Even though the weather is a lot warmer than we are used to up in Seattle, the only thing I can really stomach are liquids, so I've been having a lot of soup and smoothies.

skschnake · June 2015

I live in Louisiana and it is HOT and HUMID!! I even tried to stomach crackers this morning and I could barely swallow it! It is to the point where just looking or thinking about food makes me sick. I think I will try a smoothie today!

lovekat614 · June 2015

Peeing every hour or so at work.

Worrying too much about everything and feeling tired

I'm in Seattle, too! It's been insane.

I'm sick of getting up at 4 am.

I sick of being tired all of the time. I stay home with my boys all day and work evenings. It was working but I just can't handle only getting 5 hours of sleep right now. Just got a promotion and I can't wait to start. Earlier hours are much needed.

My co worker came in smelling strongly of perfume yesterday and then proceeded to spray a different body spray. Ugh. I don't think that is appropriate at work anyway but I really can't handle it while pregnant.

Life is Exciting · June 2015

I'm feeling grumpy and annoyed most of the time. And hubby's not taking it easy on me like he did last pregnancy. Maybe he figures since I've been through it before I shouldn't be as sick, or that I'm acting exhausted to take advantage of being pregnant to make him do everything. And I have a toddler at home who needs my attention.
I've been hiding in the bathroom at work to avoid blowing up at people who annoy me (only 1 coworker knows I'm pregnant).

I, too, need to eat all the friggen time to keep the nausea at bay

bredoll · June 2015

I usually am freezing but lately I'm so hot and most of my work clothes are pants and long sleeves to keep me warm. I'm running out of options! It also doesn't help that it has been 95+ with a heat index of 100. I think its time to go shopping for more dresses.

Life is Exciting · June 2015

Ok I have another one to get off my chest...

I have told 1 coworker about he pregnancy. I also consider her a friend and she is the one who backs up all my projects when I'm out. She's driving me batsh*t crazy lately. Every time I mention how tired or sick I am during this pregnancy, she tells me how much more tired or sick she is than me. She's NOT pregnant. It's like she's phantom living the pregnancy through me and it's f'ing weird.

Life is Exciting · June 2015

She just went home sick.

LMMama · June 2015

I am also tired of being tired. I'm super busy with work and school and feel like I just can't get through either of them.

On a lighter, more unreasonably whiny note- I am limited to what I drink now. I drink plain Pellegrino all day every day and I'm happy with that. My BF went to the store and came back with flavored sparkling water that he likes for himself and none of my kind, even after I had mentioned that I was running low. I also bought myself chocolate almond milk to drink in the morning instead of coffee. He who still
drinks coffee also drank all of that!

cantobean · June 2015

I was feeling better this morning....but gastrointestinal issues have suddenly overtaken me. And now I'm supposed to babysit a friend's kid and then work tonight. Should be fun.

kayjay44 · June 2015

I'm feeling rather bitchy today - I've been up around 4 am every day this week - so I apologize in advance for the high level of snark.

If you don't know a group of people, online or in real life, don't just barge in and start your own conversation without: (1) introducing yourself; and (2) lurking to get a sense of the group. FFS.

mrs3615 · June 2015

The thread that was just closed really grinds my gears. I didn't even get a chance to respond regarding accusations that I follow something blindly. I'm sorry, I was the one who suggested reading ENTIRE research articles, and not just the conclusion sections.

In other news: nausea, fatigue, and sore boobs.

minivanmafia · June 2015

Can I whine about agreeing that my oldest can have a friend over tonight to spend the night and hang out tomorrow after baseball camp and now Im regretting it because I have to keep my bra on now? First world problems?
8-|

jordans_wife · June 2015

I have the same nausea eating thing going. The only thing that helps it is eating but I really was hoping to gain nothing or very little in the 1st tri. With both my other pregnancies I gained 40+ pounds and I just once want a beautiful little weight gain of 25 to 30! I always drop fast when breastfeeding but I just want so bad to be one of those cute pregnant women who's all belly. Not all ass!!

CuriousKiddosMama · June 2015

Diapers, lol. Ds 1 needs to potty train so I have a couple months diaper free!

mamaek · June 2015

Current annoyance: my sister, my only sister.
Context: I was so excited and supportive through all her pregnancies and consider myself the most loving and attentive aunt to her kids since she had the first for the past 6 years. She has on and off lived a house apart from our parents. She currently lives next to them and has 24/7 support from them.
I moved countries four months ago and am alone with no fam or friends here. She has three kids. I'm a FTM.

Told her I'm pregnant and her answers: good. Now you know what I went through, you'll know what I feel.
And the newest when she finally asked how I'm going and I told her about nausea and being tired: "love that now you'll have so much more sympathy for me" And: take advantage now that you get all the attention once that baby is born you will be left aside and ignored...
What?!
Ok. End of Annoyance rant. Thank you.

MrsJG3 · June 2015

It is 108 here right now. I literally thought I was going to die while unloading groceries. Something about the heat plus feeling like I am going to puke at any moment seems unfair. The plus though is when I am hugely pregnant it will be cold. At least cold for here.

Hahahahaa

kkoloj · June 2015

I'm moving in a couple of weeks, and my landlord keeps popping prospective tenants on me every other day with a couple of hours notice. This is super stressful while I'm trying to pack. Wish he could just do them all one day of the week instead of so random. I need my naps! Thanks for the vent!

NoelBird · June 2015

I am sooo tired. From 8 am til 12 I am pretty useless. Luckily I get a second wind then so I can survive evenings with my two year old.

LittleLotero · June 2015

I want my libido back. My poor BF.

tumblefluff · June 2015

I babysat for my sisters this weekend. 8 kids = beyond exhausted by Sunday night. To top that off, I found out one of the 8 has strep and of course DS started with a fever today. Because that's not enough on it's own DH is leaving on road trip tomorrow afternoon and won't be back until Sunday. JOY.

SarahS06 · June 2015

Moving. We live in an apartment and our lease is up at the end of July. Then DH and DS will move out of state (where I'll be starting a new position) while I stay here (in an neighboring state)- so our DS can start school on time. I'll stay here, which means we will be paying for 2 apartments (which will stretch the budget for sure) and trying to buy an effing house. To further complicate matters, we can't close on any house until I start my new position, even though I've been with the same company for over 2 years. The timing is making my head spin. Further complicating matters, we currently only need a 2 bedroom apartment with the three of us. But with the baby, we will eventually need a 3 bedroom. So do we rent a 2 bedroom month to month, hoping to find a house? If we decide to rent a 3 bedroom, we wouldn't have to move if we decide to hold off on the house, but this means paying more. (I recognize these are first world problems, and I am thankful to be in a position to have a roof over my head. It's just so stressful!) Thanks for letting me rant/reading a rant the length of War and Peace!

And also the nausea, hunger, mood swings, and fatigue.

candyshaw91 · June 2015

I haven't had nausea as such yet... but the aches and pains in my groin, hips and legs are making me quite uncomfortable. My husband took me to watch Jurasic Park and my hormones are so out of whack I spent half of the movie crying hahaha.

The 3 week wait to seeing my gynae is killer. I just want to know everything is fine and baby is healthy

mmsawyers · June 2015

Currently the sore boobs are the worst! Although the temperature in Myrtle Beach, SC at the moment is ridiculous and I had a broken air conditioner for a day. The nausea is okay as long as I eat, here comes some extra weight. Doc said I should only gain 20lbs at the most. I'm dying to tell my friends and family... Waiting till after 1st appointment July 8th.

jaybirdpop · June 2015

The co host of my radio show, who I normally laugh and get along great with, is annoying me to no end! I envisioned myself strangling him the other day. He's always pressed my buttons and it's kind of our radio personalities to pick on each other and tease eachother, but several times I have snapped at him off air. He's noticed too; he told me the other day that I was being really mean.

My husband on the other hand is a saint and can do no wrong currently!

rainbowminion · June 2015

DH's family drama. His Mom moved from the next state over several months ago so we could help her out since her family there wasn't doing squat. So his cousin (who has a long, well-documented history of mental illness and drug abuse) 'buys' her house from her. I put buys in quotes because his Mom has yet to see a penny of it. The cousin has never so much as offered to pay rent. And she's 'renovating' it, basically taking it from run-down to uninhabitable. Before she's paid for it of course. Apparently her house has been under contract and it's fallen through 7 times! But, you know, she's family so how dare we keep asking for money.

Well anyway it finally sold and we didn't find out from her, but from her mom who then mysteriously had to get off the phone when she realized we didn't already know. So DH's Mom finally gets ahold of the cousin who gives 3 different stories about why she didn't tell her right away and why she can't wire the money she owes. One of which is that she's afraid we are going to steal all DH's Mom's money since DH's name is on the account. Which is pretty hilarious since we're about the only ones in that messed up family who doesn't take advantage of her. So she says she's going to overnight a certified check tonight. We shall see.

Oh and then she posted a rant on facebook which was a thinly (very thinly) veiled threat against us. I guess for not not believing in her pureness of heart and for making DH's Mom doubt her or something. Personally I think she's just mad we found out she sold her house before she had a chance to spend all the money so she could cry about how she was too poor to pay what she owes. She's already telling everyone how she's doing all this work out of loyalty to our family. She can't possibly live there because the weeds are out of control, there are mosquitoes everywhere (it's in the desert where there's no water and nothing grows) and the house is suddenly stuffed to the brim with evil spirits.

I really hope she sends the check. And I really hope the check is legitimate. DH is ready to be done with that side of his family and so am I.

Wurrkingurrl · June 2015

Being super tired, and agreeing with my husband we aren't telling anyone yet..... (other then my mom). I'm a chatterbox by nature and terrible at keeping good news to myself.... I'm dying to tell my girlfriends, lol!

kris10mac · June 2015

My little sister (who is living with us for next three months) just ate the last banana bread Belvita bar. The thing I have been craving the most so far this pregnancy!!!!

Just annoyed that I have to go to the store now. I mean, don't mess a pregnant woman's food, man.

ashcody2 · June 2015

I am just tired of being a raging, hormonal, B - I feel so awful I have no patience with my 2 year old, he is really pushing my buttons lately. I bawled this morning on the way to DC since I was yelling trying to wrangle him and the stupid puppy.
