Re: Monday Bitchfest!

  • Called my mortgage company this morning to figure out why my payment was reversed only to be hung up on by the automated system. Twice. Apparently they don't want my money.

  • Ugh, I forgot my purse at home. Not really a complaint about others, but seriously, how did I walk out without my f'n purse?!? Now I have to go home to get it, since it has my anti-nausea meds (and wallet, but you can see where my priorities lie!)

  • TMI** Ms has been returned for me over the past week with stomach acid vomiting! No matter what I eat, 20 min later the bile sour taste starts. After about an hr I lose control and gag. It burns so bad and a couple times it's caused me to pee myself (Despite having just used the restroom). Yesterday even the Zofran and Tums didn't help. :( Not okay!!
  • @bonella99  does she have children?  Sounds like a sanctimommy who has no idea what she's actually in for...
  • So, we are now 13 weeks and had our 12 week check up and everything seems to be good. So, over the weekend we started telling some of our friends. everyone was very excited and happy for us. Of course along with the usual questions we get asked if we are going to find out the sex of the baby. My DH is dying to find out, I want it to be a surprise. In our multiple conversations of this prior to Saturday night he has always insisted that if he found out he would be able to keep it a secret from others and me if I really wanted him to (I really think he would let it slip to me at some point, but really thought he would not have a problem not telling others). Then, when we are talking to our friends he starts telling everyone that if he knows he will only tell people if they ask him. WTH!!! Seriously?!?!? EVERYONE WILL ASK!!! that is what people do. 
    So annoying, and of course the first I'm hearing about it as he is telling this to our friends. Otherwise, I really cannot complain. He has been really great about everything else

    I have a coworker who is also pg who is a member of another mom's group, and she keeps questioning everything I'm going through. I had a serious subchorionic bleed (ER level bleeding), so I took two days off to stay on bedrest until the bleeding stopped. When I got back, she told me how she asked her mom group, and apparently those "aren't considered very serious." Bitch, when my dr says this increases my odds of miscarriage to 50%, I am taking that seriously. She has also made comments about how she just managed with her morning sickness and wouldn "never resort to meds for that." I wonder if she would still agree to that if she was vomiting 12-14 times PER DAY for weeks on end. 

    This is going to be a long couple of months (at least until she leaves for maternity leave in May).
    Co-worker a FTM I take it?

  • Well I forgot to take my Diclegis last night and I am paying for it this morning! On a Monday of all days! 
  • @Snaps816 haha! Fwiw, my nips haven't bled yet!!
  • I had my biopsy today and holy hell my breast hurts SO BAD! I expected a mild ache, so I didn't cancel my afternoon/evening clients, but now I have to. I hate cancelling last minute, but there's no way I can be a good therapist when it feels like someone is stabbing me in the chest...



  • @bonella99  does she have children?  Sounds like a sanctimommy who has no idea what she's actually in for...
    Surprisingly, she does have a toddler. But she is super comparative, and always has to one-up. I think she is unhappy not being the only preggo in the dept anymore, but I hate that she is behind the scenes "consulting" with her mom group about me. Which is why I turned around and vented about it lol!

  • It's Tuesday, but I need to let it out. I gave notice to work a month ago. They finally found a replacement, that I trained yesterday. Already quit last night. WTF. 
  • I caught my daughters stomach flu. I threw up 6 times and had, tmi, diarrhea. I haven't thrown up in 12 hours but I am so weak. Both my parents caught it too, so there isn't anyone to help me with DD... This is going rampant all over our area. One school shut down because of so many sick kids and teachers. I have no idea where DD picked it up!! :s
  • so sorry, @texasmama2014!  Hope you feel better soon. Stay hydrated!
  • My husband. Period. 
  • Oh man, feel better @texasmama2014

    It isn't Monday, but I'm ready to kill our admin at work. She is very competent and good at what she does, but I have never seen anyone play dumb quite like her. She acts like she has never done something before that I know she has done upwards of 100 times. Today I actually emailed her proof of her having done it before because I was so mad. Hate using the old email card, but it had to be done.

  • I think I am starting to get my energy back (can survive now without naps... just need 10 hours of sleep at night). But the nausea is still here, still puking AND now the heartburn is starting. Was I naive to think there would be some time where I wasn't in constant discomfort?

  • @Bubblegum5586 I think I completely blocked the heartburn from my last pregnancy from my memory but this crap sucks! I have to take a tums before I eat anything. Hopefully your nausea goes away soon!
  • Oh man, the heartburn! I just get so full and feel so uncomfortable no matter what I eat. 
  • For those with heartburn, any thoughts on distinguishing between heartburn and nausea?  It sounds silly, but I frankly don't know what is the root of my trouble.  The MS meds don't really completely clear it, I only actually puke once a week but am routinely queasy every morning and night, but the two times I've tried a zantac before bed corresponded with puking the next morning. 
  • I just started getting heartburn the last day or 2 after I eat dinner. I looked online for more information and it explained how the hormone that relaxes muscles in pregnancy, also relaxes the stomach valve that keeps acid out of the esophagus. Once I started thinking about acid in my esophagus it made me wicked nauseous! Ahhh its never ending!!

  • @Bubblegum5586, Is Zantac or Pepcid helping? Or does it make it worse?

  • I am 12 weeks 4 days and just threw up again. I was really hoping the nausea would get better since I'm just tired of having to be so careful about everything I eat and when I eat. I know many other women have worse pregnancies than I do (my Mom was sick the entire time ugh sorry Mom!) And there are plenty of people who deal with worse than this for chronic illnesses or cancer, but I am just really tired of feeling tired and crappy so much. With my son I think it was around 15 weeks so getting closer if that's the case! My husband has been great and my Mom visited this weekend and cleaned the house for me so I really can't complain about that department.

  • @blackistonemcgrail - I feel you.  13 weeks, 1 done, and I think the nausea/vomiting is actually worse.  Have puked two mornings in a row, and I'd been fairly lucky with just constant nausea and puking once a week before.  So, so over it.  Called the doctor this morning and asked for Zofran.
