@BVBabyHopeful I think we'll be able to commiserate. I hate BIL with a passion. He's a leech and a pathological liar who lives in his own little fantasy world.
Also. WTF I have no patience. Does anyone have a bingo card? I have a feeling we're going to need them.
My MIL used to be the same way. It got so bad when we bought her house. I stopped talking to her for three months, DH Wasn't taking to her as much, he finally told her to let us do what we want. Huge blowout lol. She finally got the hint! Now she knows to just butt out. We did major renovations on our house and everything was to expensive blah blah blah. We still hear all about my BIL and how perfect their life is, I just ignore it. In one ear and out the other lol. She constantly compares things I do to my SIL, I could honestly just careless lol. I want more expensive stuff while sil doesn't, good for her lol. My DH is convinced she does the same to my BIL/SIL, we are the favorites in their eyes lol. My MIL means well and she's good to us, just don't worry about my spending lol.
@JaymeeLH I do too and I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one. I feel bad because I know I sound like a huge b**ch being all mean to DH's only brother but I feel like people who tell me to "let it go" or "it's not your fight" or "you can't get between a man and his immediate family" don't know what it's like!
@aloha5736 I bet she was all uppity! I hate that she talks about them to us and about us to them. It just fuels the hate and tension between us and them. No to mention it causes us to basically scream at her all the time "we don't give a crap about them!" And I feel bad constantly being angry with MIL. And i do feel bad saying bad things about her son to her.
@Sgoldberg247 I know you and I are in tandem in terms of due date and timeline and I've been hating the cramps too. I had them much worse earlier this week but yesterday too was like "ouch! WTF!?"

It's made so much worse for me because I haven't had cramps in 4 years due to the amazing miracle of extended cycle birth control pills (seasonique etc) so I forgot what they were like all together just for me to sit through cramps for the week leading up to O and then from around 8 dpo on through today. Guess my body is making up for those years of comfort by putting me through it all at once. At least it's a reminder that there's something in there!

Yes! After 10+ years of BCP and very mild cramps, the first cycle off it,no got horrible O cramps and was like "WHAT THE F*** WAS THAT?!?!" Hahaha. My sister was like "well your body hasn't ovulated in 10 years, what did you think was going to happen? At least it was easier to pin point O. It is a nice reminder that something js going on. Although also a foreboding of what's to come!
WTF emotions! I almost cried this morning over the stupidest things while trying to get ready. Poor H wanted to comfort me but im sure he was thinking in the back of his head 'maybe ill nust throw chocolate at her from a distance and hide. Then she will be all better.'
wtf hunger?! So apparently my body doesn't know how to just be a little hungry anymore. All of a sudden if I'm in the middle of my work day and I'm hungry I start to feel shaky and get this like "omg I need to eat something RIGHT NOW" And it comes on really suddenly.
@JaymeeLH and @BVBabyHopeful it's a literally "I. Can't. Even" I'm so over it. DH and I are 29 and 37, dual income family, however I only work part time because it's cheaper than daycare. Our finances are none of their business if they want to pay for our mortgage and give us spending money then they can have an opinion as to how it's spent. Since they aren't they should not have a day. I could go on and on and on for days. I just have vent to my mom, sister and best friend (who is going through the same thing with her MIL) daily to cope.
