I was up the other night due to insomnia and was crying because I was so tired but couldn't sleep.

jess0211 · May 2017

All the things today. Traffic-cried on commute. DH said he's not comfortable with me getting a pedi-cried. Remembered that someone said I was pale yesterday and asked me if I was sure I wasn't having twins after noting my very tiny bump-cried. A sad song on my playlist-cried. I should just go home.

Operations is taking too long to put out the bagels for First Friday Bagels.

cmessamore · May 2017

I keep crying about the baby being a girl. Happy tears of course. But every time I think of ballet slippers, pretty dresses, manis and pedis, getting her ready for her prom, getting her ready for her wedding, being there for her when she's having a baby of her own. I just keep crying. Then I think about what if the test was wrong and it's actually a boy! And then I cry even more! Did you know that the Panorama can be wrong??? Google is a terrible thing!

I apparently have hormones coursing through my body today. I go from uncontrollable sobbing to rage every few minutes. I'm both sad and angry there weren't any caramel donuts left at the store this morning. I'm both angry and sad that my banana was bruised. The list of things goes on and on.

Furmommy · May 2017

Cried last night because I'm excited to be a mom. Then DH said he's excited to be a dad - cue uncontrollable crying

JDW0325 · May 2017

Bc I found out I AM HAVING A GIRLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL

DuchessOfCambridge · May 2017

Congratulations @JDW0325 that's amazing!!!

My toddler woke me up at 4:30 am having a BAD poop out, and I had to take care of him, all the clean up, then I had to pee and was hungry cause pregnancy, and then couldn't sleep and toddler whined for nearly 2 hours. Cried this morning cause I don't know how to sleep in and was nauseous and hungry due to lack of sleep so had to get up and make food. Thank goodness my toddler is generally super chill and will let me nap while he watches a movie

mariposa_767s · May 2017

Cried because 16yr old step daughter is hormonal, on her period, and thinks the world sucks right now. Of course, I was completely rational and thought SO would think it was my fault that she thinks the world is over. Hormones are fun. I also cried when I dropped DS off at school this morning. He kept saying he wanted to go home and be with me after realizing I can't go to field day. Mom guilt to the max.

BayCamp · May 2017

I spent my insomnia ridden night crying because I'm afraid that we're going to find out at the gender reveal that it's a boy and I'm not going to look excited. Honestly, I'd love to be a boy mom, but the thought of seeing pink makes me all teary eyed. I'm really worried I'm not going to muster the same excitement for blue and some day this kid is going to see the video and think I don't love him. Yay 2 am anxiety!

ideamainline · May 2017

Walking home from work, saw an ambulance fighting its way through traffic, because cars were being stupid and not getting out of the way. Started crying on the street corner watching this because all I could think is what if the ambulance gets where it's going too late because some car wouldn't move?

MississippiCatfish · May 2017

An authentic Mexican restaurant I want to try posted a picture of FIVE DOLLAR tamale plate specials today! I want to go so bad, but I know my kids will act out on the 30 minute drive each way, and be little rascals while we eat. So we won't go. This made me cry.

amber0529 · May 2017

Because I forgot my wallet in the mail truck and didn't realize until it was too late. Everybody had already left and everything was locked up. Now we have to go get it before we go to Disney in the morning and it will add almost 2 hours to our Disney commute.

AntWolfe · May 2017

Because of the last scene with groot in the first guardians of the galaxy movie. I was bawling and dh laughed so hard because he knew it would happen

kaitieb14 · May 2017

Because I love my dog and got worried he didn't know how much I love him and that I might love him less when baby comes.

This is why I am finding out and telling DH but no one else before the reveal. I am so afraid my reaction would be very blah if it's a boy so I'm giving myself a little time, if that's the case. Right now I also just keep telling myself it's a boy so I don't get my hopes up, because after 2 boys the thought of Pink flat out makes me hysterical, in a good way.

am+mommy · May 2017

@kaitieb14 I wouldn't worry too much about your dog. My dog would cuddle my 9 month pregnant belly just waiting and has loved her since she came out. She loves her new role as protector, playmate and pillow. We also got another pup when DD was a couple months old and they are best friends, she even sleeps in her toddler bed with her and lets her dress her up and "walk" her around the house. My dogs adore the kids.

Edit: the more I'm thinking about how much I love my dogs and how much my kids love them and vice versa I am getting emotional and teary.

BayCamp · May 2017

@ugoglencoco I keep telling myself boy as well and literally everyone keeps telling me girl. I get irrationally angry every time someone "swears it's a girl" I want to say f you and quit getting my hopes up

tashandma · May 2017

So emotional this week because my little guy is turning one so soon!! His birthday is on the 18th. This year has flown by and I honestly feel a little guilty that he doesn't get to be the only baby for too long since his brother or sister will be here before we know it!

bcashaw · May 2017

Forgot to order extra pickles on my burger

RiverSong15 · May 2017

The new Volkswagen commercial where the grandma goes on a road trip with her family because her husband died and never got to see the rest of America, and it was his last wish that she see the country with their family.

cmessamore · May 2017

@RiverSong15 I haven't seen that one yet, but I don't want to!! You recapping it almost made me cry! Lol

BayCamp · May 2017

Because my mom's flight was delayed and now I'm literally picking her up and going straight to work tonight. Andplusalso she's flying a super shady airline (Allegiant) so the fact that it's delayed for "maintenance issues" is making my anxiety go through the roof.

am+mommy · May 2017

@BayCamp I flew last month with American and had maintenance issues. Something with the AC not working in the cabin and they had to replace parts. All while on the plane for over an hour. It sucks but I am sure if it was something major they would find a new plane. Try not to worry!

BayCamp · May 2017

@am+mommy thanks! This airline has a terrible reputation, but I keep telling myself they wouldn't let people get on an iffy plane. I'll just be happy when she lands

bcashaw · May 2017

Bus driver told me I had to walk around the corner to get the bus. I cried ( to be fair he was really rude about it)
Was late for my yoga class. Cried.
Missed the bus. Cried.
Baby had poo explosion through pants while waiting for replacement bus. Cried.
It's been a long day

NYTino24 · May 2017

DH found my hidden B&J Chubby Hubby and started eating it right out of the container (which I always do). Then he thought it was funny when he remembered he has a sinus infection and bronchitis, so I can't have any since his spoon / spit are all in it.

ugoglencoco · May 2017

@NYTino24 that's the realest (most real?) reason for crying I've ever heard... how dare him!

BayCamp · May 2017

@bcashaw that sounds like a really rough day

@NYTino24 he owes you a whole fresh pint. Stat.

Update on my mom's flight: they grounded that plane and a replacement plane just arrived. Due to take off in 20 minutes, but we'll see since they haven't boarded yet. She'll be 6 hours late, I had to call out of work since she was my sitter but now I get to eat dinner with her so I'll call it a win.

Edit: just kidding, new plane ALSO needs work and they aren't giving her a new time

ugoglencoco · May 2017

Oh @BayCamp I'm so sorry! I hope they can figure this out soon! What a bummer. I've never flown that airline but now I never will!

@bcashaw your day sounds really terrible. Blowouts are the worst and always made me want to cry, especially in public.

cmessamore · May 2017

Today's meltdown is brought to you by the letters D&H!! Seriously, he's working so much lately, and I'm home so much with the kiddos that we are like two ships passing in the night. And I probably should spend some time thinking about his feelings, but I just can't right now. All I'm thinking about is how tough the past couple of weeks have been and how tough the next couple of weeks are going to be and it seems like there is no end in sight to his work schedule issues. I was awake last night over analyzing every possible thing until 4:30am!! And today I'm so exhausted that I'm crying over everything he says.

BayCamp · May 2017

@cmessamore big hugs!! Our schedules are super out of sync too and I know how much it can add to stress that's already there.

cmessamore · May 2017

Thanks @BayCamp!! Hugs back at you!! Glad DH and I are not the only ones with crazy schedules!

bcashaw · May 2017

@BayCamp travelling can be so frustrating I hope your mom arrives safely soon
@NYTino24 can you say divorce? Ice cream is sacred everybody.
Eta: I'm mostly joking about the divorce thing.

NYTino24 · May 2017

I have to add that he thought it was funny how upset I was, not really funny that I couldn't eat it. It took both of us a while to realize that he blew it for me. Luckily, it was before I had any!

am+mommy · May 2017

@BayCamp Ah that's the worst. So sorry to hear about continued frustrations, hopefully it works out soon!

bcashaw · May 2017

All four of my kids have headlice and my itchy scalp that I assumed was dry skin ( because my whole body is itchy) is probably not dry skin.
Anyone who has dealt with lice understands what the next few weeks of my life looks like. Fuck. My. Life.
Tears all over

Eta: spelling

"The whole difference between construction and creation is exactly this: that a thing constructed can only be loved after it is constructed; but a thing created is loved before it exists." Charles Dickens.
Read this from my pastor's fb page and has me bawling! That's our babies! We love them so much even if they aren't here yet!

am+mommy · May 2017

@bcashaw I know exactly what you're going on though. DD1 had headlice SO many times in elementary it was the worst. I only got it once. Good luck!
