WTF to my coworker who prides himself on walking to work everyday (even if it's 3 degrees) but then tries to bum rides to Starbucks and lunch EVERY DAY. He's been butthurt for the last two weeks because I've not taken him to Starbucks...perhaps if he weren't such a mooch people wouldn't mind accompanying him places...at least chip in gas money!

WTF hormones that slow everything down. I've hit rock bottom, and have been mixing miralax into DQ blizzards religiously. Those that say it doesn't alter the taste of drinks lie..
And speaking of hormones...little girl preteen hormones. WTF DD, are you 20? It took me years to master the art of eye rolling, side eye, and snark. How are you a pro at 10?

WTF to my co-worker and "peer mentor." I was hoping that with switching jobs that I would be able to escape the competitive, back-stabbing environment I suffered in for the past seven years. This person has been with my company for over three years and is established as a capable resource. Even though we have the same title, I think everyone is well aware that I'm new and don't know nearly as much. However, more and more, I get the sense that she feels like she is in some contest with me. We've been working on an issue with another group in our company for the past week. She was letting me take the lead on it; however, I was running everything by her to get her thoughts/see if she agreed. I drafted "our" conclusion and sent it to the group on Monday, but they came back with some arguing points. So after more back and forth, today we switched our conclusion. When we were chatting afterwards, she mentioned how she thought that from the beginning and to not take this too hard. Seriously? If you thought I was wrong, why didn't you come out and say it instead of let me embarrass myself and take a hit to my credibility that I'm still in the process of establishing? I understand that people have to learn for themselves, but that comment should have been made while I was using her for a sounding board. She's supposed to be my peer mentor, for Christ's sake. Help me, don't hurt me! I'm already doubting that I made the right choice moving here, and now I'm back in the same spot of feeling like I can't trust anyone.

ETA: Why do women have to put each other down in the workplace? We should be promoting one another and not putting others down for our benefit.

WTF migraine. I'm trying to bank time off and between your BS and morning sickness I feel like I'm missing work every other week.

Also, WTF life that's making so I will have to go back to work after my stupid short maternity leave. I worked my butt off for a great job that I now feel trapped in since I make so much money (we're not rich, but im
significantly contributing to things like a roof, grocery money and my car). I wish I still had my previous job so it would make financial sense to stay home.

erin7264 · February 2016

WTF, skin. Am I the only one who is unusually sweaty? Why do I have under-butt cheek sweat? And forget about keeping the pits dry, either.

Also, my chest has little red dots all over it. They almost look like little red freckles from far away but up close appear to be blood vessels that are too close to the skin. Whatever it is it's ugly and prob looks like acne to everyone but me. WTF.

sami1784 · February 2016

WTF to Girl Scout Cookies for tasting so good and WTF to me for buying them. I've eaten half a box of Tagalongs at work today. I'm leaving them at work tonight so that I won't finish them off this evening! Half a box in one day is way more than enough!

[Deleted User] · February 2016

WTF hormones and skin.. I haven't had acne this bad since I was 15. Also, to the client at work yesterday who told me I could borrow her fake ring to use in place of my wedding ring when my fingers swell up, because we wouldn't want to get mistaken for an unmarried KU 16 year old, would we?? Thanks a lot, lady.

sami1784 · February 2016

@schaze I bought a fake band last time when my hands got too swollen to wear my normal wedding set. The times that I went into the office without a ring on, I could almost feel the people in there looking at my bare finger. I plan to buy another fake band this time too. I feel naked without my wedding set on.

[Deleted User] · February 2016

@sami1784 I will probably use one too eventually.. it was just the way she said it and looked me up and down that made me get all ragey

LilLambie · February 2016

WTF child for using my bladder as a trampoline. Between the amount of water I'm drinking due to the heat and the bladder bouncing I might as well live on the toilet.

Also this headache. There is some kind of bug going around the staffroom which involves nasal congestion. Add to that the pregnancy hormones and I am just about to tap out.

maddmama · February 2016

@LilLambie I feel like I'm getting some bladder bouncing, too! I can't feel any real kicks yet, just some movement here and there. However, I definitely feel like something is hitting my bladder .. Every now and then it feels like something hits it and I get the strong urge to pee .. Then it goes away. I didn't really know what it was .. Is that what you're feeling too?!

LilLambie · February 2016

@maddmama that plus there's times I think baby is just sleeping on my bladder. It depends on the position that I am sitting, and I think it's made worse by having a retroverted uterus. ATM I am barely able to sit here without peeing. It's bad.

maddmama · February 2016

@LilLambie you poor thing!!! I'm sorry you have to go through that!

traceylynn366 · February 2016

WTF to one of the bridesmaids in my besties
wedding! I'm MOH and everyone agreed on the bridal shower location but her... She felt like there were better places that we could go to. My raging hormones take control and basically tell her if she feels like she can do a better job then feel free! After some back and forth she says well my husband and I will be strapped for cash and I don't want to blow our budget! WTF if your 'strapped' for cash then why not agree with the most reasonable option out of 6 venues?!

Kellyj103 · February 2016

WTF to men questioning my career. I've had a neighbor make a comment about me working and someone at work told me that after I have my baby I won't come back. I'm sure once I have my baby I probably won't want to but isn't that for me to decide? Maybe it's my hormones but I'm feeling the man hating these days

WTF hormones/feelings/emotions/crying/money/people/life?

Me today:

LinzerBinzer · February 2016

This app!!! It logged me out and took me like a week to get logged back in. Ugh!

LilLambie · February 2016

@maddmama I just went to the doctors, because I was like surely this is a UTI. Dr did all the tests and was like 'welcome to pregnancy, you're in for a rough ride if you are getting pressure this early'. I just about sucker punched her.

deuxbouledogues · February 2016

Wtf to weird sex dreams that continue to distract me throughout the day.
And wtf to my belly button. You're an innie. You have no business with this weird "trying to be an outie on a chubby girl" bullshit.

blissylissy86 · February 2016

WTF swelling!!! It is too early for this right??? If I sit for too long or stand for too long, my legs and feet swell up. It isn't awful yet, but I'm just afriad this is just a step in a bad direction.

oandmplus1 · February 2016

I know it's Thursday now, but the bump wouldn't let me on yesterday.
WTF with the non-stop cold and congestion the past few weeks. My bag reflex is way sensitive now and I keep vomiting and dry heaving from phlegm in my throat. I didn't vomit once first tri and now it's daily.

elldel · February 2016

WTF to this sore throat that literally came out of nowhere. Felt great this morning, now it's like I got hit by a train. Ugh...I canNOT get sick right now!

soberkfell · February 2016

@blissylissy86 A maternity support belt might help! I had to buy one in the first half of my second trimester with my son.
