Seriously, I hate it when stupid sh*t gets under my skin, but my hormones control everything right now. So, share your stupid rants with me and let's kick Christmas weekend off right, haha!
In the US, dietitian is spelled with a "t", not a "c". It makes me livid.

Re: Stupid rants
Haha it was nice to rant. But let me finish by saying that I'm grateful to my parents for dogsitting. And I'm grateful this foot break and fall happened in the second trimester rather than the first or third. But what a huge nuisance when I have to do all this traveling and be around family and do activities with them, and I'm just cranky about it all. Like you said @beckyf321 it's all about the hormones right now. I could definitely punch somebody in the face right now.
ETA spelling.
I also hate that he always brings a new box of soap into the shower (he uses bar soap) but never takes the soggy, empty boxes out?
I could rant about DHs dirty habits forever....

I also find that I am cleaning out DHs car every time that I need to take it for some reason. I really don't know how it's so difficult to keep the car free of trash. Yesterday I found a bag of defrosted "frozen" spinach that never made it's way into the house from the car. Gross!
DH said to me last night "why can't you wipe down the counter after you use the salt? you get it on the counter" I said "oh didn't realize that I did that but why can't you just wipe it down if you see that it's a mess" his response was "because I didn't make the mess, why would I clean it up" WELL BRO....let me tell you why. You are about to have a daughter that makes messes that I will not be cleaning up by myself all the time. Also, I know I'm not the only one that drops crumbs, losses hair, makes a mess on the floor but I'm the only one that vacuums. I'm not the only one that eats, but I'm the only one that cooks, and I'm not the only one that uses dishes but I'm the only one that does them. F*ck the F*ck off and wipe down the damn counter if it bothers you that much.
I'm so grateful they come over and help out but I'm suuuper irritable right now.
DH submitted a proposal to attend a week-long conference in Vegas. Next September. Right around when I should be returning to work. WIthout asking me.
Christmas is in less than 2 days. I've been to the hardware store twice already today frantically trying to get DH's gift done. I may give up (see above).

And they had no sympathy. "that's just the way things go, you're pregnant. Get over it". Just because that's the way things go does NOT mean it's okay to say these things. I just kept repeating to them that pregnant women are not zoo animals. Pregnancy is not an excuse to make constant comments, ask rude questions, etc. They are trying to make me think I'm crazy for being upset and I should just deal with it.
@chelle087 DH does the same with his car--I tell him that it's exactly why he drives the old car and not our newer one bc he doesn't know how to clean up after himself whatsoever. I can't stand it.

Baby #2 EDD--4/16/17
She was fortunate to be able to stay home when her 2 older kids were young, but now insists she must stay home with new baby, because baby was a preemie. She has no money, and no job. It is so frustrating, because she had a great career! But now, she is always asking family for money. MIL is doing everything she can to supply money into SIL's bank account, but she doesn't make much herself! I feel like now that baby is healthy, she needs to go get a job! It is so frustrating to me that she is making zero effort, and asking us to pick up her pieces. I asked DH how much money he has given her so far, and it is a lot more than I thought. Guess what sister, it's time to go get a job!!! Unfortunately, no one in her family will tell her this because they all feel bad for her.
Its like duh!!!! We are the parents, we know what he likes/dislikes and what works in our home. she just really really irritates me sometimes.
My rant is about people who are constantly telling me, "just wait until the baby comes...xyz will happen or you don't be able to do abc..." My mom does it all the time. I actually think I'm going to tell her to stop the next time she does it. It's just annoying.

Pregnancy # 6
4 missed chances
2 loving children
1 on the way
I also am not excited about my maternity leave at my work.. the US sucks when it comes to taking care of moms. It's so important to be cared for and be with the baby for new moms, but the government doesn't care! Some companies pay more than others, and mine is not good - we've been saving like crazy, so hopefully I don't have to go back to work too fast..ugh!
FYI - we didn't even go to the NBA game because we couldn't find a sitter. DH went with the neighbor but didn't even stay for tip off because he wasn't feeling well.
I'm over this day. It's only 6pm, but is it too early to go to bed?!

to everyone who mentioned libido... I am with you. once in two weeks tops. And not necessarily my thing - DH seems to be revering my bump and does not want to poke anything. I miss feeling all sexy and desirable, but I know this will pass after baby is born and I slim down (it's my thing - he never says anything about my looks but I do look and feel fat). I guess seeing all your comments, this is just the story of pregnancy - and getting a cuddle is also lovely
