  • ha i don't think it would be to polite of me to let it all out. I have way to much built up and instead of crying at this stage of pregnancy i get overly agitated and angry which is the opposite of me normally
  • My husband is gone for a training this week. He left yesterday (DD2's first Father's Day) and won't be home until the weekend. He will miss DD2's first birthday, but be here for her party. I'm super salty about it. 
  • It's my first appointment today and the OB is 40 minutes late. I've had to pee three times waiting for her. I love my practice but this is BS in its most epic form. FFS.

    I feel you. I'm a lot more hormotional this time around than previous pregnancies. Maybe I should hide out in my house until we announce.

    That is tough. 
  • @mrsgunsta, was the office willing to share with you why she was running so late? 

    I had a D&C&E with my m/c in January; the surgery took three times longer than she anticipated totally effing up her afternoon appointments. Since then I've been more understanding of her tardiness.

    That does suck. Out of all doctors offices, im more understanding for OBGYNs. I had both my daughter's at 1:10pm. I know I pushed back her afternoon appointments that day. sorry about your wait time and bladder

    Irritating?  Yes. But. You might be the woman holding up everyone else one day so just sit back and relax and accept it as it comes. 
  • Come to think of it, how do OBs ever maintain an appointment schedule? When a baby's about to be born, they've got to drop everything and go.

    They had to cancel one of my appointments once Witt my last pregnancy because my midwife was delivering a baby. I think she only takes on a certain amount of patients though.

  • My BF is that today DH, DD, and I were supposed to have a fun family day since I worked yesterday for Father's Day. But I got 4 hours of sleep last night and feel like shit. DH was clearly annoyed today by my attitude. I was whiny all morning. But I kinda want to just tell him to not expect much, I'm pregnant and tired, leave me alone.

  • I went for my beta draw today because of my loss history. The OB nurse did a urinalysis first like they will at every visit. Less than a minute later she looked at the test and told me my urine test was negative and questioned me about if I was having symptoms/if I was sure I had a positive home test etc, throwing me into a mental tailspin even though I knew logically that I had a clearly positive test this morning. The OB told me that their tests are less sensitive than store bought tests and went ahead and had labs drawn for my beta, but just to reassure myself on my way back to work I picked up another test and got a bright positive within 30 seconds. I love my OB but his nurse is such a hag.

    hullabalou thank you for that laugh this afternoon lol
  • I have a yeast infection. It's pissing me off. I get it right before vacation...fu yeast infection.
  • @hullabalou that would have thrown me too. They didn't do a urine test when I went in.They just did a beta. And asking if you had symptoms or had turned a test. No, I just came up here because I had a dream I was pregnant. Lol
  • Haven't told anyone of the pregnancy yet and we had friends over this weekend and we went out all day wandering around and I was doing my best to fight through nausea and fatigue and appear normal and my friend was making her bf carry her purse and carry the water and and was complaining about her feet hurting and all this stuff. And in my head I was like..... I'm over here growing a tiny person and trying not to vomit and I can carry my own damn purse. It's not like it affected me in any way it just really annoyed me.

    I know. I just kind of stared at her like she had 3 heads. She was awful during my son's pregnancy as well, it is enough to make me consider switching OBs but I really do love him. Plus they use a handheld ultrasound at every visit after 8 weeks and it is so reassuring to see the baby every time.

  • If my mother says well that wasn't a thing when I was pregnant or when I was pregnant we didn't do that one more time! I love her but things are different than 1980!!!!
    My best friend's mom is like this. She said you can't take anything for nausea because she wasn't allowed to. In 1975. ***TW loss*** She also said you can't ever travel because she lost a pregnancy at 4 months after she traveled (in a car). Nevermind she had fibroids that she eventually had surgery to remove to carry a pregnancy successfully. No, it was definitely sitting in a car that did it. **end TW***

    Thankfully my mom is more rational. She always says "I was pregnant 40 years ago, I have no idea what it's like now."

  • I'm glad it's not just me @eggplantface and @TattoosandLace!!!  When I told my MIL that at the appropriate time we hoped to have the baby sleeping in the nursery with a video monitor she almost died and began to tell me all the reasons we can't do that.

  • And now there is a Tropical storm in the gulf.  This is going to be a fun week.

    @mrsgunsta Ugh, my last midwife was like that.  I went with her because she was so nice and caring, but that also meant she would spend an extra 20 minutes with everyone making sure she answered everyones questions plus more.  This means that if my appointment was late in the day, she'd be anywhere from an hour to an hour and a half late.  This time around I asked the receptionist to "just give me whoever is most punctual for their appointments."  She laughed and listed off exactly who I shouldn't see.  
  • We weren't planning to announce until mid-July but DH made a comment during Father's Day church service and cat was let out of the bag. (I work Sundays so I wasn't there until dinner) he asked me to tell his grandma because he thought it would mean so much more coming from me. So I did. I asked "So what do you think about being a great grandma again?" She understood what I was saying but proceeded to list off her other great grand children saying she had so many already but nevwr really saying congrats or anything. DH drove her home and I guess all she had to say was that she was shocked we would be starting a family so soon. We got married last year so its not like we are just 2 kids making babies, I'm 25 and he's 30. It just kinda pissed me off. She's never acted like she disliked me so its not what I'm used to from her. :/

    Oh no! Apparently I need to watch the news. I am right on the coast

  • DD was up 4 hours earlier than usual. DH got up with her first but then I got up. I fed her and changed her diaper and got her back to sleep just in time for the little boy that I babysit on Mondays to arrive. I was already so tired and I knew I'd get no nap because he doesn't nap. It was a long day. I could barely keep my eyes open while playing board games with him. After he got picked up I was looking forward to not having to make dinner- I planned it this way. I asked DH to get chicken from the deli on the way home so I just needed to make sides. I was starting to cook them when he texted that he was stuck at work. I waited another hour and then finally had to pack DD up and drive to the store and get the dinner myself. I was so tired and she was so whiny ..it sucked! Not to mention way more work than if I'd just planned to cook dinner at home in the first place!

  • I want to punch my own mother. She doesn't know I'm pregnant and keeps making these comments like "oh you lost all this weight you probably won't want any more kids", "I think that your family is just the right size", "oh you're so busy, how would you ever do it with one more". Like back off, you had your chance to determine your own family size now it's my turn so eff off

    This is why I haven't told my own mother yet. She has already made her opinion clear about me expanding my family so I can only imagine her response to the pregnancy. "Oh you guys def shouldn't have another baby with A's diagnosis". "You would be crazy to have another baby with how good of shape you are in." She needs a can of STFU.

    I have never been so gassy in my life. I feel bad for my DH, and then he says it's okay he gets it, but then I also get mad at him for making faces. I know it's gross! I don't want to be doing it either! Suck it up, you don't feel queasy all the time! Phew, that felt good :)

    One of my coworkers just had a miscarriage and I haven't announced my pregnancy yet (6w4d today) and now so many people are offering support by sharing about their losses but it's freaking me out! All day I just want to go to bed and wake up and be another day pregnant, don't have my ultrasound until the 30th so I'm freaking out. I know they're trying to show her support but I just wish I didn't have to hear it!

    My youngest was recently diagnosed with complete deafness in one ear and that has just added fuel to my mom's commentary though it is not the only thing because she said stuff like this before I had my last baby. 

    I think the reason is that she only had 3 so she thinks that everyone should make the same choice as her or we are saying her choice to have 3 was the wrong one or something. I've been avoiding her though because she is driving me crazy and I can't even snap since then I'll end up spilling the beans
