Can you say HORMONES?!

yesterday at work, I was texting my boyfriend that I was soooo hungry. He told me he would cook me dinner when I got home. I wanted breakfast for dinner. So I told him to make sure he loaded my omelette with cheese. (I seriously love cheese) and he brought down my plate and immediately I notice there is no cheese in it. I asked him where the cheese was and he told me there was plenty there, so I sliced it in half and was like "where??" He got upset and offered to go remake it. I obviously wasn't gonna make him redo it even tho I wanted him to.. So I ate my omelette sooo unhappily and was on the verge of tears the whole time. I would never act like this!! I knew how ridiculous I was being the entire time but still wanted to snap his neck lol. Any hormonal stories out there from you ladies?

Re: Can you say HORMONES?!

  • I feel your pain. I wanted a coke so bad and my DH offered to get one from the vending machines at our apartments.  All excited I anxiously waited for him to return.  When he did he handed me a sprite and explained they were out of coke.  I couldn't even say anything I just busted out crying.  I know it took him by surprise he just walked out and came back with a coke and fries from McDonalds.  I feel bad because it wasn't his fault but the hormones got the best of me.

  • I almost karate chopped him in the face for throwing his wet towel on the carpeted floor the other day and telling me it could wait to be picked up. Guess I'll just do it like always!
  • I had a moment like that 2 week ago. I REALLY wanted a blizzard from DQ. DH said that he would run and get me one and instead he came back with a small pint of Ben and Jerrys. The line was apparently too long at DQ, so he went to walgreens and got some Ben and Jerrys that we could share. 1. This preggo does not share and 2. It was not what I asked for. I am normally not like that as well but I was SO upset. I told DH to just eat and sat on the couch and pouted the rest of the night.

    My favorite part is that we pout about these things!! It's gotta be kinda funny to watch

  • I pitched a whining fit in the middle of the grocery store Bc their doughnut display was completely empty and all I wanted was a Boston creme doughnut! I kept saying, "This town sucks! All I want is a doughnut! The world is out to get me!" The man in the store was giving my husband this look like, been there, done that. I feel for ya lol.

    Hahaha this actually made me laugh out loud! I have had those days and they're awful! I got a sub from subway a couple weeks ago and the guy drenched it with a sauce i didn't ask for and had the same exact response.
  • The last 3 days I've asked my husband to clean the tub. I do the rest of the house, but please clean the damn tub. Needless to say he hasnt. So I asked him again this morning to do it when he comes home from work tonight . He boldly responds "yea, just remind me". I may have snapped. I told him I've been reminding him every day, plus if he wasn't an idiot he would see that the tub is disgusting when he takes a shower every day.

    Soo... feeling bad after he left I got on my hands and knees and scrubbed the tub while bawling my eyes out before heading off to work.

    Hormones may have had an effect on this whole thing.

    You gotta love the old "just remind me". Ugh...I've heard this wayyy too many times!

  • We stopped at a 7-11 the other day on the way to the hospital to visit my sis and her new baby because she asked us to bring her a coke. I asked DH to get me something diet and without caffeine, either a sprite or 7-up. He came out with the coke and a regular sprite. I asked him why he didn't get diet and he asked why he would do that. Um, because I have GD and can't have all the carbs in a regular! His response, well this is for me, you wanted something? We just talked about it! Cue tears! He ran right back inside to get me one! At least he remembered what my sis wanted!
  • I have a good one for you all, we live way out in the middle of nowhere basically, there are family members that live on the same "ranch", a total of 6 houses on about 100-150 acres. So the house we are in is just right across the dirt road from a huge field that backs up to a wash. That piece along with the acreage our house sits on belongs to my FIL. My DH and I have discussed when we can afford a house of our own (we are currently in the 2nd home of my FIL, which he graciously sort of gave to us for the time being) we want to build one in that field because of all the room. Well one of the cousins Jim Bob (I shit you not, that is his name. Don't let it fool you, he is a mechanical engineer) has started to plow his piece of property which is adjoined to the same field my FIL owns. He plans on planting alfalfa, and such. So one night I see him with his backhoe, in what I have dubbed "my field" where our kids' quad track is and where our future house is going, ripping up all the beautiful cat claw bushes, desert willow trees and so on. My first thought was  WTF? I message my DH asking what is going on, a few hours later, and me watching from the front window that overlooks the field, my DH calls me to say that my FIL gave him permission to plow the whole freaking field. Ok, normally I'd be like whatever,  but this man has a tendency to start a project, such as plowing, and never finish it because he is always working. So I am freaking out over a once gorgeous field that I could early in the mornings see the deer coming through it, the coyotes traveling in their pack and general wildlife, is now being turned into a big, muddy, barren dirt pile, devoid of all life. I lost it, I was crying and upset because I know that nothing will ever be done to it, I was upset because I didn't want him to destroy the quad track that the kids ride around on and because we have plans to start building a house there but obviously isn't going to happen now that he has layed claim to it. yah....that was the height of my crazy hormonal stuff. Crying over a field....
  • I was getting changed into my pajamas a week ago and saw my stretch marks in the mirror. They are purple/red and only on the lower half of my belly. I stepped out to show DH and said (all depressed), "look at how ugly these stretch marks are getting." I felt like he'd never find me attractive again...

    Instead of something comforting, he responded with, "Like a bear claw!" And laughed. Cue the Instant silent tears! I just stood there with them rolling down my face. He was up and across the room hugging me in an instant, apologizing for screwing up. My only response, through my now ugly crying, was, "That wasn't very nice." He felt so terrible. Non pregnant me would have probably just laughed with him. Pregnant me was depressed all evening. :-(
  • My husband does this thing where, if I say I don't want to do something or go somewhere he'll act all understanding and be like, "Okay. No problem babe." Then like 5 minutes later he'll say, "So, do you want to do that thing or go that place? You don't have to. I'm just asking."

    I know my face goes completely blank every time. I wonder if he knows I'm considering the ramifications of choking him out right then....

    While driving to the store with my husband, something made me laugh so hard I started crying. I looked in the mirror to fix myself when I noticed my first wrinkles and I started bawling and couldn't stop. Every once in awhile I started laughing at myself because I knew I was being ridiculous, but I couldn't stop crying. After going back and forth from laughing so hard to crying to bawling, my husband said he could probably have me committed. I had to admit he was right.
  • Lol that all of these stories deal with food, drinks, or DH! I feel you ladies!! I'm in the same boat!
  • A couple months ago I had a snow cone 5 days in a row. the 6th day my husband wouldn't go get me one and asked for me to wait til the next day. I cried like a 3 year old brat. So embarrassing. :-??

    My boyfriend ran into the bank which is attached to a grocery store and I wanted to come in too, but he said he would only be a minute so I should just wait in the car. I said I really want an orange juice tho. He promised to buy me one and he would be right back. He comes waltzing up to the car with no orange juice and a death glare from me. He had no idea why I was sooo angry at him until I said "umm... My orange juice? Are you f****** me?!"
  • I wanted to go to the little ice cream shop down the road yesterday for a twist cone with their chocolate sprinkles. But, before we could leave to go it starts storming. The little shop closes when it rains. I was crying for a solid hour over it. I felt like a 2 year old.

    There is no substitute for a DQ blizzard. I don't even know what I would do if DH came home with something else. Fortunately after an incident in the first tri where he ate my last cookie he has a clear understanding of the consequences of messing with a pregnancy craving. Poor guy has even come home with multiple options before if I wasn't specific enough.

    I had a super emotional moment the other day when I attempted to put together a shelf for the nursery. On the box it said "easy assembly" in big bold print, so of course I was like will I can do it then! I can follow directions and use a screw driver....no problem! Yeah no after struggling with the first 3 steps in the instructions for over half an hour and stabbing myself in the hand making myself bleed I give up and burst in to tears. Not just tears but big nasty ugly crying fit. My husband who was cooking dinner the whole time I'm attempting this tried to comfort me and tell me it's not that big of a deal. All I could get out in between sobs was....it it said easy assembly boohoohoo I just don't understand why I can't do it blahhh. Anyways the next day he assembled it while talking on the phone pretty much one handed argh! He said the box should have had a warning.... "Easy assembly but not for pregnant emotional women."
  • My boyfriend sucks at being sensitive and touchy feely and that's all I want. I tried to cuddle with him and he told me not to push him off the bed. I asked him why he hates me so much and he told me he's really tired of me asking him that and I'm getting really annoying. I only asked him twice...I just want some lovin. I can't stop crying now and he's sleeping like its no big deal :( I feel like a hormonal mess.
  • My hormonal moment for the day was because DS said apple when we were working on his fruit puzzle. He's mostly non verbal so it's always a big deal when he says a new word but i was just so proud of him because we have only been working with this particular activity for one day! I was so happy and proud and the tears just wouldn't stop, and seeing his beautiful smile when I told him how good a job he was doing and him showing me the apple and saying it again just made the happy tears come even faster.
