Re: Monday Bitchfest 3/13

  • It is my first day of spring break, I took the kids to daycare to get some errands run.  Well my kids new bunk bed is arriving between 12-4 and my dog has a vet appt at 10.  So much for my errand running.

  • We are getting a serious snow storm tonight/tomorrow which totally sucks.

    I also got medicine for a yeast infection that totally isn't working and I'm gonna have to go back to the OB again for an extra visit to reevaluate. Let's just make pregnancy a little more uncomfortable. 
  • We got 2 inches of snow yesterday morning, and it all melted by the afternoon.  I'm so pissed we didn't get AT LEAST a 2 hour delay out of it.  (We're in the south... usually 2 inches of snow shuts everything down.)  Such a waste!

  • @LMMama I believe we are getting that same storm tomorrow.  Potential blizzard conditions of 3-4" an hour for 4+ hours tomorrow.  Joy....

  • The snowstorm hitting Buffalo caused my parent's flights for tomorrow to be cancelled already :(  They rescheduled for the weekend, but they wanted to come this week because of DD's Spring Break.  The kids are so sad.
  • Oh man @CurlyMommy416 that sucks so much, I am sorry!

  • It's a gloomy day here. Which is not helping my motivation. My mom is being dumb about bringing my grandma to come see Josephine when she's born. I get that my grandma is a stubborn old lady, has zero filter in public and is not the best travel buddy but she's old and I don't know when we will get back to NY for her to meet Josie. I just want to tell her to suck it up because it's not about her!!! It's about the kids making memories with their great grandma and Grandma. 

    Mom to Madison- 5 and Lillian 2....and now surprise baby #3!
  • oooooh guys am I ever bitchy today. It started last night when DD was up 80 billion times because of the time change. She also developed a nasty cough on Friday that is keeping her up at night. I had to do two neb treatments in the middle of the night. Then, naturally, I couldn't fall back asleep. I got out of my bed this morning and noticed we got dumped on by snow. I am so over winter. I have also had a sore, swollen, irritated foot for a week now which doesn't help my attitude. DH even told me last night that he doesn't like me when I'm pregnant.
  • F&^%&ing daylight savings time.  Sooo tired.  And amen on the snow @itsfine . I thought we were done with winter?!?!?

  • And I just had to drop 300 dollars at the vet.  Ughhh vaccines and heartworm/flea meds are ridiculous!

  • @itsfine My husband has also told me this weekend that he's so glad this is the last time I will be pregnant because I'm so moody.  I feel like if the shoe was on the other foot, there's NO WAY DH could handle pregnancy.

    I told my asshole of a husband that I would get so much pleasure out of him experiencing one day of having a menstrual cycle. Fucker doesn't even know what pain is. 
  • My cat needs to stop f*ing puking all over the house.  I just mopped up like 4 puke spots.

  • Not thrilled for the snow either - thankfully DD's daycare says they'll be open since I'll need to work from home even if my office closes. 

    MBF: Work has been a total disaster for the past week. Even my boss was joking about how I must be ready to go on leave....as he was asking me to come up with my plan for maternity leave coverage. Giant Excel spreadsheet, here I come!

    My MBF is this: DH received a shirt as a gift for his birthday that says "Be nice to me. My wife is pregnant." When he got it I actually had a little chuckle because I don't love that I'm not always the best to be around but I also don't really apologize for it. This morning he pulls it out from wherever he stashed it and says "maybe I should start wearing this around the house when I need you to be nicer to me." It felt like there was one of those dramatic record scratches in our house. I was so pissed. Not even two seconds ago I'm telling you how much my ribs hurt, last night you were trying to comfort me through a migraine, and I've been so tired lately I'm back to wanting to go to sleep at 5 but you need me to be nicer to you?! I told him that shirt was for the outside world and had nothing to do with me. 
    Ohhhhh nope I would have lost it.

    Immediate death stare would have come his way - along with a few pillows (or harder objects). Not cool....

  • So last night I posted a request on Facebook for freezer meals, as I'm trying to make a list to start prepping things over the few months left in pregnancy. Somehow, someone who isn't a parent and I haven't spoken to since high school thought this would be a good time to tell me what to eat and not to if I plan to breastfeed. Cue eyeroll.

    I love when my friends who aren't parents try to tell my how to parent Via Facebook. It's my favorite. Sometimes I can't even think of a snarky comeback because I'm so baffled. 
  • On another fb note, my grandma(who I do t get along with) commented on my status telling I shouldn't let my 16 month watch tv and that it's not good for him. I rolled my eyes so hard. I'm sorry, but when my screaming teething child will only calm down if I put on Finding Dory, were flippin' watching Finding Dory. Oh yeah, this was coming from the grandma who smoked in the house and car with all of her 5 kids inside. 
  • @Fsunole31 I'm with you.  My dog needs her teeth cleaned and because they consider her geriatric she needs a full physical and geriatric blood panel before they will do her teeth which is generally 200 bucks.  Then the cleaning itself normally is 600-800 dollars.  And she usually has a couple teeth that need to be pulled.  I feel like we should be able to write off pet expenses on our taxes! 
  • My dh and I had probably our second date in the last year Saturday night and we went to see the movie Get Out. At the very climax of the movie, when it's about to show you what the hell has been going on, the power to the entire theater shuts off. So now we have no idea how the movie ends. But at least we got rainchecks for when we go on our next date sometime next year lol. 
  • My husband's depression/anxiety has been off the charts recently due to stress at work, but it ends up in these huge fights between us, and I get told that the reason he's mad is because I'm not handling him/a situation properly or not doing enough of something or other. 

    Saturday he was having a really stressful day for various reasons and all day during breaks in his CPR class we texted, talked on the phone etc and he was very grateful for me helping calm him down. Then when I picked him up at the end of the day, he mentioned he had a voicemail from his mom and I started saying "oh I know what that's about because she just called me too" and somehow that turned into a huge arguement about how I shouldn't have talked about his mom at all until after I "checked in" with him to see how he was doing because it was a stressful day etc etc. WTF? He brought up the topic and we had already been talking all day about how he was feeling. But apparently because it wasn't the very first immediate thing that I asked when I saw him, it means I don't care at all about how he's doing. It seriously started a 2 hour lecture/conversation about how apparently insensitive I am. 

    Its hard to be too mad though, I know he can't necessarily control it. And he even flat out recognizes and says that he feels like he should be the one supporting me right now instead of the other way around. But damn it's hard when one minute he's telling me that he wouldn't be able to make it through this stuff without me, and the next I'm an uncaring, insensitive wife who isn't meeting his needs in this relationship. :disappointed:

    Going into this pregnancy dd (3) told us boys come from daddies bellies and girls come from moms. If the world was fair this would be true. Too bad this baby has boy parts...she could have believe the world was fair a little while longer.

    See my husband also admits this, yet he is not compassionate at all about the difficulties of being pregnant sometimes.  I mean my pregnancies have been relatively easy, but when he asks me to help him move the bedroom furniture I'm like "you have to be kidding me." 

     

    My bitch is currently DH's immune system, because he has strep throat now.  He started running a fever last night and went to urgent care immediately.  This morning he couldn't figure out how to get the thermometer to work so he asked me to fix it, which I did, but it took the entire time I had scheduled to exercise to do so, so now I've been awake since 5am for no good reason because I didn't even get a workout in.  If this was flipped it would never have happened...DH treats his workouts like they are a priority over just about everything in the world.  So I'm pretty annoyed.  I considered working from home today to help him with DD this morning, but then I realized I didn't want to listen to him complaining constantly and asking me to make him lunch because strep throat apparently is the same as a terminal illness, so I told him I had to come to the office.

     

    This will be a nice test of DD's immune system though...it's the first time DH has had a contagious illness since she quit breastfeeding.  I suspect she was blessed with my superior immune system, based on the fact that she's been in daycare since she was 12 weeks old and has only ever had two separate one-day stomach bugs and one bout of pink eye (while the kids in her class are sent home for having strep, and respiratory infections, and scarlet fever (seriously) and measles (also seriously, it is like colonial times around there apparently)).  But we always wrote her good health off to her still nursing at the time.  I hope this pans out because I can't deal with another DH in the house.  Last year he got strep throat and said that DD gave it to him because someone in her class had it, even though she never got it herself.  He said she was a "carrier."  I don't think that's a thing.  Sigh.  That man can't even walk into the daycare without catching everything that is going around.  it's ridiculous.

  • Blizzard Warning for most of the northeast tomorrow, my office is already going to be closed so I'll be working from home (I wish I could just have a snow day). Of course my next OB appointment was scheduled for tomorrow so that was rescheduled for next week. I'm irritated about it all, haha. Someone tell me it's normal to get irritated at every little thing when pregnant?  :#
  • bergberg member
    @delujm0 so sorry to hear YH is sick.  I'm always amazed at how helpless DH is when he gets sick.  

    My bitchfest is snow.  Just wtf... seriously 2ft?  But I thought we were done!!!  Wahhhhh! 
  • Dd should have been sleep an hour and a half ago, but she is literally sprinting beck and forth in her crib laughing to herself. We had to go to the grocery store this morning because we are supposed to get a ton of snow the next few days and I probably won't want to go out again until Thursday. Not looking forward to two days stuck in the house with a teething toddler. I thought I might have time to sew a new cover for the changing table pad while we are snowed in, but I couldn't find any good gender neutral fabric in the colors we have in the nursery at the fabric store today. I guess I'll have to just use the cover we have for dd and get my mom to make a new one after the baby is born. Team green fail. Minor things to bitch about today, I guess.
  • Continuation of my earlier MBF - boss is definitely annoyed about the timing of my leave and the lack of options for coverage. Nothing like feeling defensive about how much time I would like to take given I know we're done after this one...and I won't even need to ask for unpaid leave to do it.

  • Ugh I feel so over all bitchy today.  I wish I could brush it off!

    First my chiropractor called at 7:30 am to see if I wanted to schedule apt this week since I canceled last week even though I told them I would be out of town this week and would call and schedule when I felt like I needed too. It makes me feel like they just want my money.  Not sure why that annoyed me but did you really need to call at 7:30am??

    Then my 2yo has recently discovered tantrums and threw the biggest one ever about taking off his pj pants.  It was a rough morning with lots of wrestling him into clothes and the caraeat and lots of crying.  

    I know these are stupid things to even bitch about but my mood is just sucky today.

    We are getting a serious snow storm tonight/tomorrow which totally sucks.

    I also got medicine for a yeast infection that totally isn't working and I'm gonna have to go back to the OB again for an extra visit to reevaluate. Let's just make pregnancy a little more uncomfortable. 
    Are you in the northeast? I'm in Jersey and we're supposed to get one too. Boo to shortening my spring break!

  • @jennas312 I'm in Jersey too. And SO over the Jersey weather. 
  • mrtmrt member
    @delujm0 how old is your DD? I ask because my husband had strep throat when my oldest was 14 months and when I took him to the pediatrician with a high fever and difficulty swallowing soft foods, they didn't test him for strep because "babies don't get strep". Don't let that happen. They should absolutely test if they are showing symptoms and a close family member had strep. My son ended up with Scarlet Fever, which as far as I understand is just the rash that can come with strep, and isn't usually scary unless left untreated.
  • Dude...you ladies are ALL my heroes.  I'm not even pregnant and I'm ready to rip just about everyone's head off.  Today, I seriously considered making a powerpoint presentation entitled, "How to Remove Head from Ass" to send to my entire team...I need a new job, STAT, before I"m fired.

    Then...and honestly, it's really not a big deal, but I wish she'd never said anything...my friend has informed me she no longer has time to host a shower for us.  I didn't even WANT the damn shower in the first place, and she pushed for it.  Now that I've gotten somewhat excited for this, she isn't able.  And I truly understand, and never expected anyone to host us a shower, but she insisted, and now I'm like, "WTF?!"  I swear, going off BCP was the worst damn idea EVER!

  • To add to my bitch fest from earlier - I got a summons for Jury Duty. This is after I just got a summons for October 2016, responded to go and didn't have to show. But still - already!? This makes 3 summons in the last 3 years, and DH hasn't received one. I send it back with that I served in October (I know I technically didn't since I didn't have to go, but it's worth a shot). 
  • My boss (who I pass daily but try to avoid) asked me how I was today. I said "okay" bc I hate lying and saying "good" when I'm not having a great day (a personal pet peeve about our society that could be a whole rant). And then she gave me a real sorry look and said "I think the worst is ahead of you". Really?!? 
    Really?!?
