B*%^@fest MONDAY 4/11

emmeline714 · April 2016

Well i am ready to hear how your feeling, I have to work all day instead of my regular half day because the other person called in...... other things that getting on my nerves that people are posting things they want there opinion on and then we give our opinion and get sensitive because they ain't hearing what they wanted to hear in the first place if you don't want peoples opinions or comments or the way they respond to your question DO NOT POST S&^% THEN tired of hearing people complain there is worse things happening to people and you aren't the only one experiencing what seems to be too much for you!!!! TODAY IS MY IDGAF day so LETS HEAR YOU ALL

ballofmeat · April 2016

@emmeline714 I hear ya! This is a message board, not everyone is going to tell you what you want to hear. When you post something, you have to realize that not everyone is going to agree with you. Don't give us a long detailed vent post and wrap it up with a bow and say you only wanted an answer to the question. Nope, just nope.

My rant of the day is that it is also Monday and I have to flip hospital shifts three times this week, with Wednesday being my only day off. I am going to need a lot of self rewarded treats to make it though this week. I think Starbucks will be seeing a lot of me this week.

jamiesc58 · April 2016

My dh is driving me crazy!!! I don't know what his deal is lately but he has been insanely crabby with everyone! Yesterday I lost it and went off on him. I felt bad but come on. Even the kids kept asking me what is dad's problem. After I calmed down, I asked him what has been going on. He has completely no explanation and just said "I don't feel that I have been more grumpy than normal". For real???

tmk0325 · April 2016

@jamiesc58 I'm convinced men have male time of the months because it's usually one week out of a month where my SO is awnry and irritating also!

emmeline714 · April 2016

@midwestbaby well i am glad someone is on board lol and i know the feeling of working almost everyday when it comes to be your day off you can't even enjoy because you have lots to do at home and the baby we are carrying determines how we will feel that day motherhood so lovely........ since i was going to leave half day and now have to stay here until 4:30 i am going to Starbucks and be a pregnant lady lol

@jamiesc58 its there way of PMSn lol they get it worse than us sometimes just be like okay buttercup cheer up you want some cake ****sarcastic voice**** i do this to my DH when he has is crabby days

Nikkoli98 · April 2016

This happened a little bit ago, I was out for my prenatal appointment with MFM (which is over an hour from home) and was just having a crappy day and decided I needed some Starbucks gluten-free chocolate cookies (truly intolerant, not a diet fad) to get me through. I sat in traffic for 15 minutes to get there only to find it was closed (permanently relocated)!! I had just been there less than 2 weeks ago, no mention of closing/moving then.

I drive to the new location drive through in 10 more minutes of traffic, they don't have said cookies! By the time this information is conveyed I'm pinned in the drive through lane for 7 minutes. Thirty-two minutes of effort and no cookies. I spent the entire drive home on the verge of tears.

You win! I would have lost my sh*%.

texasmama2014 · April 2016

Its raining and I don't have an umbrella or a coat... First World Problems obviously, but I'm about to have to go outside!!!

kristynmac · April 2016

This is probably a First World Problem, but DH asked to take me to lunch today and after I said yes I realized he can't go until 1. I didn't bring snacks and all I can think about now is having lunch an hour later than normal.

bearsandbeets7 · April 2016

I've felt extremely ragey all weekend. My sister lived with us and she just moved out this past weekend. DH gets 1 weekend a month off and of course it was this past weekend so we spent Friday night and all day Saturday moving her and getting our house back in order. Sunday we had my sister a housewarming party so after church I went to her new place and help with that. I finally got home around 7:30 last night and just felt really tired. DH has a long 2 weeks of work ahead and he works a lot of nights because of how the rotation falls. I'm tired and its Monday.

Snaps816 · April 2016

Posted this in the FB group yesterday, but I am still ragey about it. Someone got ahold of my debit card number and made a bunch of fraudulent purchases with it on Saturday night. I noticed them yesterday, called the bank, and they are going to take care of it. But I had to cancel that card and wait for a new one to come in the mail, and be cash-only all week which is kind of a pain. And I'm going to have to update my CC info on every service/subscription that I use. It's so irritating that people do this and get away with it! The banks are usually pretty good about reversing all of the charges and doing their part, but it's not like they launch a big investigation to find the thief and bring them to justice! I would like to know how they got my info.

Also, I just wrote a bunch of checks for medical bills and they have not yet cleared, but since this person rang up a bunch of charges and they haven't been reversed yet, my bank balance isn't enough to cover the checks that I have written. So I had to transfer money from my savings into checking just to cover the amount in case those checks go through.

ballofmeat · April 2016

@Snaps816 this also happened to me last year so I feel your pain! I often wonder about the people who spend all this time stealing from other people, They should use that energy to making money the honest way, without the threat of jail time.

The person that stole mine had multiple items from JCpenny delivered to their house! When I called JCpenny to find out what address so that I could file charges, they wouldn't give it to me even though I had all the card info. They said they couldn't for privacy reasons! Umm hello it's my card and bank account!

the_other_mother · April 2016

Just found out today that because DH and I work for the same company (different locations) any FMLA he takes will be subtracted from mine. I plan on taking the full 12 weeks so this throws a wrench into everything. I don't want to give up my time so we will probably just have to try to get a couple weeks of PTO approved for him, but that obviously not guaranteed or protected. So frustrated right now!

rvamom90 · April 2016

My in-laws are driving me nuts. They know DH and I don't get along with his brother's wife and tend to avoid each other as often as possible yet, every time we see DH's parents they have to mention his brother and his brother's wife. We don't ask about them because we don't care (lots of drama there) but they continue to volunteer information or make an excuse for them. I want to scream at them to shut up and unless you're talking to them about us (which they aren't) save your breath.

Rant over.

Snaps816 · April 2016

@Lydiadiane That's so lame! If it's a big enough company to have multiple offices, you'd think they could manage two people getting leave at the same time.

the_other_mother · April 2016

@Snaps816 it's a massive company. I understand by law they can get away with it, but it just doesn't seem like the right way to treat your employees. I've worked here for 10 years.

Nikkoli98 · April 2016

@Snaps816 and @midwestbaby, I totally feel your pain!! A few years back I had somebody hack my PayPal account. I got an email that my password and security questions had been changed. I called and they said it's probably a scam email, but it had a verification code and turned out to be true. I needed all new debit and credit cards, plus I had purchased stuff on ebay for family members, so they also needed new cards.

After a huge hassel for everybody, I called PayPal back to change my account settings to something new OR to close the account and they wouldn't let me because I couldn't verify the theft's security questions!! WHAT THE HECK PEOPLE? You are going to alert me that somebody hacked my account but not actually allow me to do anything about it?? Haven't used PayPal since.

I've heard good things about Life Lock if you have further troubles. Best of luck!

charmedlifex3 · April 2016

My husband is the winner of my Monday bitch. He is NOT working at the moment, and he forgot to turn off his alarm this morning - at 5:30 am. And he is sick, so it's not like he was getting up to work out or anything.

So he turned it off, and rolled over and went back to sleep. And snored. And now all of the pets are awake (because his alarm woke them) so dog wants to be let out, and his cat was hopping all over the bed like "It's MOOOOOOOOORNING!" I usually get up at 7, so I was not pleased. Especially since BH contractions kept me awake later than I wanted last night. Which I am also blaming him for. #crankypregnantwife

emmeline714 · April 2016

@Nikkoli98 i would have been going off, i did it to pizza hut and got a discount

@texasmama2014 i can't stand rain lately seems like we have rain for a few days a sunny day and more rain, i don't have an umbrella either

@kristynmac that was my prob today and then i hate when you then eat and with a slice of pizza i got full

and bought a pizza baked roll with meatballs and i am looking at it like i will be hungry soon again probably because seems like every 2 hours i need something to eat

@Lynnlove28 i was pooped this weekend running around with church and all that i passed out at 7pm last night

@Snaps816 your bank doesn't provide you with a temporarily card? because i know my bank does as i don't like carrying cash ever.... i would have been beyond mad i would probably irrupt like a volcano lol

@skelly1990 have your husband talk to them politely about how they need to stop talking about them to you guys hopefully that works, when dealing with in laws its good to have them talk to them to put them in there place or vice versa so hope it works out, i usually try to change the subject quick when it comes to things that i dont want to hear about.

@Allisun85 i would have woken DH up like seriously i am mean sometimes but i make my DH understand like how would you have felt if it was the other way around... maybe tonight you should tell him to take his alarm off so it won't happen again

Nikkoli98 · April 2016

@emmeline714, I called Starbucks customer service and explained the situation, I got NOTHING! (Although admittedly, I wasn't very pushy with them...)

tmk0325 · April 2016

Not sure if anyone else is using the Bump from their computer, but WTF is up with these ads showing up in the middle of the message boards?!? I don't see it from the app on my phone, but it's definitely annoying and visible from my computer.

And @Snaps816 I've had my work credit card compromised and my personal debit card twice. The work one, someone in Europe purchased plane tickets, we had their names and everything. I'm not sure whatever happened to that, but I was like seriously how stupid are you? With my personal cards, one was during the Target thing a few years back when a ton of people were compromised and the other was last fall, I just was strolling through my account online and saw this random charge for like $11 and was like what is this? Turns out someone was testing my account to see if I would even notice the charge, they somehow managed to purchase a bicycle light from a company in CA. I called the company and the company cancelled and refunded my account, but I once again had to get all new cards. From here on out, I monitor my stuff daily or ever other day!

jamiesc58 · April 2016

@tmk0325 I absolutely hate the ads!!! It is very annoying!

bearsandbeets7 · April 2016

@tmk0325 it's on mobile too and making things look weird. Don't they know we are pregnant and can't handle these changes?!

DD is being a whiny little brat ever since getting up from her nap. My head is killing me and I simply don't have the patience to deal with it.

I also found out that my OOP max for our insurance is $13,100. I get sick even looking at that number.

rvamom90 · April 2016

@emmeline714 I wish that would work. We tried that when all of the drama went down but they stick their heads in the sand so we don't waste our breath anymore. I just look at them like they're nuts and DH and I talk about it later.

charmedlifex3 · April 2016

@lynnelove28 Is that for your family? We have a high OOP too, but it's split in thirds. I think it's 7k, but my personal max OOP is 2500, 2500 for the baby when he is here, and 2500 for my husband (who hopefully won't need it.)

I also priced it with our hospital (the billing department is usually willing to do this), and a normal delivery should only be 6700.00 ish. So I will pay $500 deductible, probably $500 for my son, then the remaining 20% for my co insurance would be 1140.00. They did say the baby's portion of the hospital stay - barring NICU or something - is measured in hundreds not thousands.

Hopefully you won't end up paying *all* of that is what I am saying, and even if you do most hospitals have pretty generous repayment / financial aide plans.

1faceinacrowd · April 2016

I am so irritated with my MIL right now. I could scream, or cry.

Basically, DH received a text from his lunatic ex girlfriend (the mother of my step-son) on Saturday night bi***ing at him about my Instagram (I blocked her on FB so apparently now she's stalking me on instragram instead) because I have pictures of my husband and step-son on there (duh, they're my family and my step-son is with us 50% of the time). DH handled it well, telling her to stay off my online stuff and to leave him alone.

But when DH told his mom about it today, she said that maybe I should be more sensitive and not post pictures with her son "until things cool down" and talking about how her feelings are probably hurt and she's sad that I have everything she used to have and blah blah blah. Mind you, my DH was MISERABLE with this girl and she treats him like SH**; she just got dumped by her last boyfriend in February and already has a new one she's having sleepovers with, making her son sleep on the couch, etc. She's not a good person, or a good mom.
I, on the other hand, spend a lot of time with my step-son and my daughter, and have every flipping right to post pictures of my family doing stuff together. But apparently MIL thinks I should "protect" her feelings, just in case she decides to continue to LOOK ME UP ON INSTAGRAM AND GO OUT OF HER WAY TO STALK ME.

Can you tell I'm annoyed?! Ughhhhh. End rant.

jamiesc58 · April 2016

This is probably more of a UO but the baby name board here is crazy! I posted for middle names and have gotten a few but mostly lectures on why I shouldn't pick the name dh and I like. I have big shoulders and will do what I want as this is our child but jeez people! I should have taken @texasmomma2014 's suggestion and just kept it to myself lol.

tmk0325 · April 2016

@1faceinacrowd you should just set your Instagram account to private, she won't be able to stalk you anymore then! I'd also be ticked if my MIL suggested that too. Seriously?

kmlovato · April 2016

How's this for an ad. On a pregnancy app. Where we're all gaining weight. This is mine today (among others!!)

tmk0325 · April 2016

@jamiesc58 I commented and gave you some middle name suggestions.

emmeline714 · April 2016

@1faceinacrowd you can make your instagram private and block her 2, you can do what ever you want as far as posting pics of all you. MIL just talking, the BM is just butt hurt because all seems to be great in your home unlike her she has to change boyfriends like she changes her underwear, some BMs just stalk to make themselves get pain and try to be the victim, i had to deal with few BMs in my past but i always show them happiness to make them look silly as hell

bearsandbeets7 · April 2016

@1faceinacrowd I had to block every single one of my inlaws on Facebook because they would take everything I posted and blow it out of proportion. And I don't feel bad about it. I would make your insta private. It's not like your the girlfriend, youre the step mom and have every right to post pictures.

I am getting the ads in the app now too - and they are autoplaying videos. Thanks for eating up data thebump. Very frustrating.

Bookhousegirl · April 2016

Ugh these ads are killing me!

My bitch is that DS spilled an entire cup of milk on my bed this morning (DH gave him a cup with a top that didn't fit correctly) and now I have to put the clean sheets on the bed before I go to sleep and I'm exhausted and don't want to do it!!

Mfuller76 · April 2016

I'm getting the ads in the app too - and somewhere between the gym and home, the app updated. Everything looks different and I'm not sure how I feel about this yet.

Wow, I've obviously missed something! I take one day off from the bump and all the drama happens!

bearsandbeets7 · April 2016

@Bookhousegirl all of your questions can be answer in one thread about used baby gifts. Special snowflakes.

texasmama2014 · April 2016

It's cute when people come on here once per month and think they deserve support or backup when all they post to begin with is AW stuff.

people disagree. It's the Internet.
