WTF to my coworker who told me I'm really pale. Gee thanks. Sorry I'm pregnant and can't go tanning or sit in the sun for long periods of time. Trust me, I MISS being nice and tan!! Now I feel like a Cullen.

WTF to one of my seniors yesterday who told me it was gross when pregnant women wore tight shirts and showed off their bellies (I belive she used the words gross and disgusting). I was talking to a group of them about my pregnancy and how it was going and she basically told me she hoped I had more decency than that and wouldn't wear those tight tshirts and that maternity clothes were so much prettier when they were pregnant.
Excuse me?! I just told her that I actually loved those tshirts and own and wear several. But not to worry because I won't wear one to work on a day she was here.
@emmaaa what????? I love those shirts because pregnancy is the only time I don't feel compelled to suck my stomach in! And what exactly is so offensive about showing off a baby bump? There are a lot of shirts people wear that I wish they would have rethought, a maternity shirt showing a bump has never been one of them. Major eyerolling from me!
@emmaaa That's the most ridiculous clothing opinion I've ever heard! This is the BEST time to wear tighter shirts. No sucking in!! Major eye rolls from me too @maf9866

I was going to say the same thing @mrscorker ! The larger and flowier and more shapeless the shirt I wear, the more I look like I'm blowing up like a balloon...and like I've spent the summer stuffing my face and not moving (which is only partially true...).
Wtf to upper abdominal pain that woke me at 1am. What the hell is that? So much stretching and a burning sensation. It was crazy and lasted all night. Of course I Googled and it's either just stretching of the organs or Precclampsia. Sheesh.
@sportiegrl1213 Yes to Jensen! I was going to thank @LauraPCOS for starting this thread with such a lovely man.
My WTF I guess is my symptom lately too: my brain. I can't make words, I can't type, I'm missing all kinds of things at work that one of the other secretaries always has to passive-aggressively point out to me, and then just side note to my boss about it, like it's her responsibility to tell on me. Luckily my boss is on to her games and just ignores her snarkiness and allows me to correct myself without any kind of reprimand. I mean it isn't super important stuff, just stuff that slips my mind somehow... So WTF brain, get it together! I hate this feeling!!
Countdown to Baby H! Mommy to Elizabeth (6/18/09), preemie at 34 weeks
Wtf upper chest pain that made me spend 2am-5;30am in labor and delivery triage last night. They chalked it up to HEARTBURN. W.T.F. I have never in my life felt heartburn that painful if that is what it was.
I believe it! I had some pretty bad heartburn one night earlier in the pregnancy and at one point, told DH we were going to have to go to the hospital if it didn't get better soon b/c I was worried it was more than heartburn.
@SpaceBurger Oh man, I had it so bad a few times during my last pregnancy I thought I was having a heart attack and dying... never had I ever thought it was possible to suffer such horrid heartburn and indegestion. I became super sympathetic to people who get it regularly, I had no idea what they go through sometimes.
@emmaaa That would inspire me to wear a latex body suit to work.
WTF Sister, showing up at my house on my "day off" and waking me up! She's lucky she is her, because I slept nude, had to put on clothes first, and was in full-on bitch mode when I answered the door.
@Spaceburger I was at the hospital last week because of that, I felt my heart exploding, I was super scared and it ended up being heartburn.... and spend there from 3am to 7am
My WTF is to hormones, my face is covered with purple blood vessel due to my latest exorcist main character rehearsal.... that also left me with an incredibly painful back, and stomach pain due to that disgusting moment... so last night as I removed my make up, I saw my face and felt my pain and began to cry, so there was I crying like a little girl because I felt so ugly and everything hurting so bad....
I am scared about crying for no reason at work.... It would be weird.
WTF nutritionists, why can't you have late or weekend hours so those with a 9-5 can actually get an appointment. Everyone makes GD to be a big deal, but a girl can't get an appointment.

This has totally already happened to me. My boss was like it happens and shrugged it off. She said she was super emotional when she was pregnant, so at least she understands. But I was still awkward and embarrassed.

Wtf work! The kid I'm supporting at work caught his brother's flu, which I noticed yesterday as he started looking flushed and was practically laying down whenever he could when he's usually very active. Well, like a good mom, he was kept home today, so I got sent home - but now they're not sure how they're paying me for the day. Hey it's not my fault he got sick! I was there!
We rent our house from DH's close friend and after 2.5 years, she STILL hasn't gotten all of her stuff out of the garage. This was not in our agreement, in fact she has been promising for the past 2.5 years to get it out. Now we NEED the space. Granted, it isn't a lot of stuff, but it takes up half a wall and comes out about two totes length. With the baby coming and rearranging the house though, the space is needed. She stopped by last month to get the rent, walked in and was like "Woah. It looks like you're moving around here with all these boxes." I responded, "YES. WE NEED MORE SPACE IN THE GARAGE." I almost cried. I am so overwhelmed with the need to organize and clean. We take great care of her house. We don't complain about the numerous issues that need to be fixed because we know she isn't made of money, and it'll all happen in time. THE ONE THING she can do, that costs nothing, is get her shit out. She promised to get stuff after she returned from her 4th of july trip. Then nothing. Then last week she promised to come by friday. I texted Friday to follow up around noon after not hearing from her, she said she was still coming by. Then nothing. Then I texted her saturday and monday. No reponse. Finally yesterday she picked up like 2 boxes. Some progress, I suppose, but I am so frustrated. As a landlord, it's irresponsible. As a friend it's just plain shitty. I had a whole raging text message to send to her and DH asked me not to send until after he talked to her because he knows she'd get defensive. I get that. I'm irritated that she's put us in this awkward position to have to keep nagging.
@emmaaa, that is the biggest WTF! It makes me think she's one of those women who want you to bfeed your baby in a bathroom stall because out in public is so offensive.
@SpaceBurger, I'm so sorry about the heartburn! I had a scary moment like that while we were vacationing in Greece and I thought we had to call our insurance company to get us airlifted. It's so painful and uncomfortable!
@Julia70286, that sucks! And it sucks because it feels like you can't say anything. I'm so sorry.
I have zero WTFs this afternoon, but I look forward to a ton of WTFs this evening because it's comic-con weekend in San Diego and im in the heart of the action since I work downtown close to the convention center. I can't wait to see costumes!!! I wonder if i can get dressed up for this weekend as pregnant wonder woman?
WTF stalker at lunch asking if I was dating anyone. Hello I am six months pregnant and happily married.
lol was he like, trying to pick you up or something??
and I'm with @AllyTheKid, if some little sh*t teenager said something to me about tight pregnancy shirts then I would make a point to be sure that's all I wore in her presence from that day forward.
WTF sleep - I slept from 12:30 am til 10:45 am both today and yesterday...and only got up because I felt guilty about it.
@AllyTheKid YES!! So I go to Jack n the box for lunch today, I am eating in my car while reading my tablet and this older guy keeps looking over at me, who is in this old red truck next to me. I finish eating and feel super uncomfortable so I drive to the garbage and drop off everything. I proceed to drive across the street into a nice shady area to get a way from him. About 10 minutes later he drives up the street then back down and I was like WTF is happening. It is super hot but a roll up my window and keep an eye out. Five or more minutes later he starts driving by again and this time stops. He's like "I don't normally do this but are you dating someone?" I was shocked and said "yes I am happily married," he says that my husband is a lucky man and drives away. I am freaked by this time and drive back to work, it was like a scene from a murder show!!
WTF to the dickhead dad in our birthing class the other night. I'm still irked. Asked dumb questions throughout class...he's the kind of person who is armed with just the smallest bit of information to think he knows what he's talking about, but really it's just enough to make him dangerous. He goes up to the teacher after class (a L&D nurse with 40 years experience and also seems to just be a delightful person) and asks her, "So during labor, after you've given my wife a shot of fentanyl, legally that's a narcotic...so once she's had that she's not capable of making decisions for herself. So if she still wants an epidural, then it would be my decision if she can have it, right?" Umm...NOOOOOOOOO! Bless her heart, the nurse said, "Wrong. You're just along for the ride." I left at that point because I could have punched him in the face.
@ibabyloveb87 Is nice to know your boss gets you, there're no ladies in my department but my boss has a 6 months baby so he tries to understand me, although sometimes he forgets that I'm pregnant and I'm restricted to do some activities or go to some production areas.
So far I just cried once, and I was all by myself in the bathroom so no one notice it
Well, each of our brains fails in different ways lately I think haha! Whether it's a date, spelling and grammar, etc., words are really hard with the pregbrain
WTF Wednesday! Today was an absolute shitastic day. I'll try and keep it short. We are currently on vacation. We left this morning to go to a town that was 2 hours away (to hike, beach, brewery hop). Well, 30 minutes in and we blow a tire. DH goes to change it and his truck didn't come equipt with the right tools. And we have no service, in the middle of no where. Finally flag someone down an hour later, change it, and go to an auto place 30 minutes away to have it fixed. Then DH realized that he left his phone on the ground where he was trying to change his tire. We drive back, he sees his phone on the side of the road, but right in front of us a huge logger truck runs it over and blows it to smithereens. So we finally make it to town, DH gets his phone changed and we go hiking up to the top of a mountain. It is now 95 degrees. So it was miserable. We leave for the beach. DH realizes he forgot his swim trunks. Awesome. Travel to a store to buy some. Go to the beach. Get swarmed and eaten alive by black flies that force us to leave. We finally get on the road to come back to the cabin at 7:30, and we get pulled over by a State Trooper, which magically let us go. I quit today.
