  WTF self?? I woke up right when DH got home around 12:30/1am (works 2nd shift), and was wide awake for 3 hrs! I got up at 6:30 to go to work today---I should've just called off and taken a sick day lol because I am dead on my feet.

  @ashleym112 This is happened quite a few times to me! Just wide awake in the middle of the night.  Last time I accidentally turned on Diner's, Drive-in's, and Drives and almost went on the hunt for tacos at 3am.
  
  My WTF is questions I get about my twins. As a preface, I underwent IVF (2nd time) and we opted to have 2 embryos transferred. 
  
  "Do they run in your family?" - Maybe, but not this time. - "What does that mean?"  - I had IVF - "No you didn't! You're too young for that!" **grumble**
  
  "What if they're identical?!" - They're not.  They are fraternal twins. - "How do you know? Are you sure?" - Positive.  I watched them transfer two individual embryos. (And then I go on to explain the difference between identical and fraternal twins.  I've had this discussion 5 times already.  I've only told my family and a few coworkers.) 
  
  I can't be upset about it, I wasn't open about our infertility for obvious reasons.  But man, the same question over and over.  I'm going to have to come up with some witty comebacks.
  
  "Do they run in your family?"  - My family doesn't run.  We're more hikers if anything. 
  "What if they're identical?!" - Let's hope they're not ugly.

  We have a faculty member who only comes out of her office and walks past my desk a few times a day. She seems to only walk by when I'm either on break or not at my desk, and has decided to complain to my boss that I'm not working. I have good communication with my boss, so she knows this isn't true, but it bothers the crap out of me that the faculty person would go running to my boss before checking with me first.

  My sister and I are twins (fraternal) and we are constantly explaining this to people. We look the same because we (and all my siblings) strongly take after my mom and her side of the family. It's so annoying when people are like, are you sure??? Uh yes, after 28 years we're pretty postive we're not. The best is when people would ask my mom if she was sure my brother and sister (also twins) weren't identical....
  
  Also, that is the best response ever haha!

  WTF to my almost 3 year old who has yet to learn how to blow his nose.  He woke up at 2:30 am screaming "I need to blow my nose" and proceeded to suck all of the snot in anyways.  After this incident, I couldn't fall back asleep so it looks like I am following the zombie trend today.

  My mom taught my son how to blow his nose at like a year old and I was like "what?? this is possible?" It has been a life saver with as often as this kid gets runny noses so I am so sorry for those of you who are still having to work on it.

  totally jealous!  My 2 yr old does the inhale-exhale to try to get a booger out. And then he gets annoyed b/c its not coming out.  I still use a boogie bulb.

  Wtf to the fact that last pregnancy they made me see every doctor in the office and not mine.. and missed a very important piece of information in my lab results that could have caused horrible issues (thank God it didn't!) We caught this today when looking at lab results.

  WTF to my dog. She usually sleeps all night just fine, but last night she was up and wanted out every few hours. She must have been sick. And just when we finally start to get my 13 month old to sleep through the night, the dog wont!

  @kristen88 & @shaunessa, I honestly have NO clue! I asked her how she did and she just was like "I don't know he just did it for me!" This is the same kid that started whistling before he was a year old! What??

  WTF Mom. Please stop saying "I don't want you to dwell on this forever" about me still struggling with the loss of one of the twins. It's been TWO weeks. I lost a baby! Back off.

  WTF to my massage therapist. She actually said to me during a massage this week "I think you're having a girl. Girls steal their mom's beauty during pregnancy". WTF? Who would say that?! I didn't even know what to say. I woke up and didn't do my hair or make-up and walked in wearing sweats- but to even comment on someone's looks anyway is so unprofessional and straight up mean to a pregnant person! Ugh I miss wine.

  @cafedisco I'm bumping at 3am because my smoke alarm started going crazy and I had to drive to a gas station for a new battery. Now I can't sleep, this stinks!! 
  
  @BecNJake who does their hair or makeup to go get a massage anyway?!? I'm sure all her clients look like hell when they come in, I know I do when I go to get a massage even when I'm not pregnant... that was rude and so unprofessional...

  @BecNJake I would have made a comment about feeling like I'm glowing lately, and make her squirm a little. I hope you didn't tip her.
