I'm just so fucking annoyed with traffic and shitty drivers. I feel like I have nearly been in an accident 5 times since Friday and none of them were even remotely my fault! Get off the road assholes!
My chin/jawline started itching again. So annoying. I just went to my PCP last week and it had stopped so I didn't bring it up.
I feel like it has to be a food allergy to show up and go away. I do become allergic to silicon based lube when pregnant so I guess why wouldn't I develop an allergy to something I normally don't, again?
My husband is driving me nuts. It's like he just can't wrap his head around doing certain chores around the house. It's not that bloody hard, if the counter is dirty wipe it, if thever kids spill something mop it up... smh!
One of my coworkers overheard my news then basically told me I'm going to have to get rid of some of my animals. When I said hell no, he said "you have got a lot to learn". That just about made my blood boil. Then he continued on to talk about how cats will smother babies *insert giant eye roll here*

The landlord still hasn't fixed our heater. We've lived here for three weeks now and it's worked 25% of the time. Now he needs some bug part and doesn't know when he'll receive it. I am freezing!!!
I'm irritated at how my kindergartener and second grader's school has some type of extra "fun stuff for the kids" (ie extra work for me each week). This week, it's not only the class valentine's parties, getting all the valentines cards and treats together, but it's also "celebrating the 100th day of school" celebration where they each need a bag of 100 items and have to dress old tomorrow. Last week, it was kindness week and they were required to wear different colors each day. And it was leadership day on Friday so they needed to wear blue AND dress up. And perform so I was there a total of 8 hours throughout the week. The week before was the jog-a-thon where I spent all day Friday cheering on the kids with my three year old. I'm already there from 8-12 every Thursday volunteering and I'm starting to feel like my life is that school! Ending rant. :P

A whole lot of nope. My first cat and I grew up together. There are absolutely adorable pictures of her curled up with me in my crib when we were both babies. I'm fairly certain I was way more of a danger to her when I was a toddler than she ever was to me.
@moosette113 Exactly! I mean seriously, what's wrong with people?! I would never give up my animals just because I'm having a baby. I have 3 cats, 2 dogs, and 2 sugar gliders and I love each and every one of them.

@ktcakes87 I have 2 dogs and they have been awesome with my DD who is 9 months old! They've been loving with her (and curious) from the beginning and, in turn, she has learned how to be gentle with animals because we can now slowly teach her gentleness and petting without smacking or pulling. The dogs also know when too much is enough, like if my DD needs some space, they'll back off and just kind of lay around her. It's a great relationship and I love it when babies grow up around animals. I think it teaches everyone a lot of love. So do you, girl!
I love the snow (I know I'm probably in the minority!) but I'm also doing this thing where I'm trying to walk outside for at least 2-3 miles a day Mon-Fri so that I can just stay relatively healthy and keep my body in check. Buuuut now it's snowing and I don't have good coordination in the snow but I'm determined to go out there. I guess my bitch is that it's snowing on a day when I want to go outside and not on a day when I can just stay home cozy and warm
My husband is driving me nuts. It's like he just can't wrap his head around doing certain chores around the house. It's not that bloody hard, if the counter is dirty wipe it, if thever kids spill something mop it up... smh!
I'm finding myself having less and less patience with my husband. The little things I normally can let slide are driving me insane. Hormones are fun.
@ktcakes87 omg I seriously almost got a sugar glider in college but thought I read they are illegal? Either way I thought they were so cool!
Also just to add I have 2 cats and DD LOVES them and they are great with her (yes they'll run away if annoyed, but have let her pull their hair, chase them, etc and have never made one attempt to hiss or swipe and have never-knock on wood-attempted to go in the crib).
@JamieK1882 Only in some states are they illegal. They are legal where I live (Ohio). They are A LOT of freaking work. So much work. But they are so dang cute!

I can't figure out how to dress... Baby #2 and my pants don't fit. I feel like I look frumpy if I hide my belly with sweats and whatnot, but I have that is she fat or is she pregnant look in everything else I own. And today dh asked me if I was allowed to diet while pregnant... ugh. Like I don't know how much I weigh...
I think I am just starting to catch a cold that DH brought home to me. Last night he kept coughing, waking me up and giving me a sneak peak into how crappy I will probably feel in a couple of days. He feels awful that he got me sick and I know he can't help it, but I am still pissed...
DH is sick as in we didn't go to a Super Bowl party bc he wouldn't move sick i'm avoiding him like the plague but i'm starting to feel a scratchy throat. I might scream if he gets me sick. He though it was funny to tell me i was going to get sick so he kept making jokes. Then we found out about baby lets just say not so funny anymore. Drinking OJ to help and those naked juices with all the good stuff in them also washing anything he touches before i do.
Lightheaded ness and BSC hunger is really pissing me off. Makes living your life while pregnant kinda difficult if you feel like you are going to pass out just walking through the grocery store. So, I guess I'll be packing snacks and whatever like last time. Serves me right for leaving the house hungry for school drop off.
Also, people that cannot park their giant SUV or hummers or whateverthefuck they drive. Like, I understand-- big vehicle, but when you take up three spaces with a giant vehicle because you don't bother to park between the lines? That's just messed up.
I got into it with my mom a little bit on Friday night about just wanting people to do things themselves, I'm getting tired of doing everything for everyone all the time. So her reply was basically, get over it because you can't do anything about it, but in a shut-the-f*ck-up kind of way. I just wanted some support and I got a sh*tty attitude from her instead.
DD has Girl Scouts tonight, but I don't really like the troop leader so I'm dreading going. We missed the last meeting because she was with her dad and they just didn't go, but I don't feel like going this week, either. We went to Ikea on Saturday and I bought her a new closet system so I'd rather stay at home and put that together with her instead.
I'm also feeling bitchy about my (what I assume are) hcg levels. I had my blood taken on Friday afternoon to confirm my BFP I got on Thursday. Today the doc's office calls to say my levels are half of where they'd like me to be so I had to retest today to see if they've gone up. I was so out of it with that news I forgot to ask (confirm) that it's the hcg levels they're watching and what do we do if they don't go up? I'm feeling super moody at work because I'm worried but I can't/don't want to tell anyone yet because I don't feel like it's safe...

Countdown to Baby H! Mommy to Elizabeth (6/18/09), preemie at 34 weeks
@JamieK1882 Well, there's a lot of bad information out there about their care. Doing it the proper way, it's pretty expensive (big cage, proper wheel, toys, cage sets, ect.). It's hard because they eat a fresh diet. So once a month I have to chop up all kinds of fruits and veggies, mix it with all kinds of stuff, then freeze it in serving size containers. Then every night I have to make sure their food is thawed out, mix in the vitamins. Their cages need a decent amount of cleaning pretty often, but you can't do it all at once or else they will over mark it and it will smell 10x's worse the next day. They also need a decent amount of your attention. Most people don't realize what it takes and then they aren't properly taken care of. They get depressed easily and will self mutilate. You also can't have just one for that reason. Sorry for the novel

We have been fighting with the school district to get a new placement for DS1. It has been ongoing since Oct. today we had an IEP meeting and surprise, what we have been requesting and pushing for is what they now believe is best. Sadly, the only reason they refused was because of money.
DS2 has his third ear infection in 4 weeks. I'm over it. Hopefully the new antibiotic will get rid of it and he will not get another cold for awhile.
DH has hernia surgery Thursday. I am not excited for recovery. Fingers crossed it isn't the "man cold" of recovery.

Check your renter's agreement and your state laws. We have a rental property and we would never let our tenants be without heat in the winter. That is terrible! You poor thing! Hope it is fixed soon for you!!
I have soo much to do at work that requires me to transport kids around and no one is helping me out. I have so many other things I need to be getting done but have no time. I can't help but think that they would be jumping up to help if they knew I was pregnant!
@PerkyErky Lmfao! He is... he said he was asking because he wants to diet and it would be easier for him if I would get back to meal planning and making healthier meals since I've been ordering out a lot lately. I know he wasn't trying to be an ass, it's not his nature, but he sticks his foot in his mouth a lot.
My wallet got stolen out of my car yesterday and the people racked up $900+ of charges on my credit and debit cards. I have no ID, all of my card accounts are now closed, and I have a bunch of stuff I have to go get for this weekend because we're going out of town. SO annoying. At least the morons went to a bunch of places with great security cameras, so most likely they'll get caught and we're fraud protected, so we'll get our money back, but still. Why the fuck do people feel like they're entitled to other people's stuff?!
have at it!
