MONDAY BITCHFEST

lincbeesmom · October 2017

@hollieileen @Saratiff @codik86 we are also starting month 2 of living in a hotel (part of hubbys job relocation package to Wyoming) so there really isn’t much to do. I could have taken my son to the pool but I didn’t want to deal with getting us in and out of bathing suits haha

I am mostly pissed at myself. So exhausted that I sometimes fall asleep when I sit in a chair :'( nothing sounds good to eat, I am having a rough time cooking. SO has been cooking more which is nice but I feel bad about it. I feel like a horrible mom. Finally got around to filling out the background check for volenteering at the kiddos school, apparently they changed the program and I hadn't been paying attention so needing to fill out another background check even though I was approved in April. The teacher was sad cuz she wants me to hell for the vision and hearing screenings on Thursday. I hope I get passed by then and she needs me in the afternoon. And well I am horrible. I didn't make my son do any homework today. It's not due till Friday but he gets a pack of like 12 pages of homework once a week. He's gunna hate me tomorrow when I make him do like 4. Actually I am gunna hate it, it will be war!

I miss wine right now. Actually I miss even wanting wine. I have an aversion to everything right now especially alcohol.

I don't know how you working gals get through the day! Hell I don't remember how I did it while working the first time now either. I have loads of respect for ya all!

@Pascal86 sounds like someone needs to have an after hours recon mission for nap bean bag chair. If I worked w you I would totally be your lookout.

I remember on my baby moon w 1st kid (6-7 months along) a woman stopped me on the street and asked how far along I was. I told her and she said "so you're having twins!" I said "no. Just one." She proceeded to try to convince me that my doctor was wrong, I was wrong and I must be having twins. She walked away shaking her head in disgust. I promptly burst into tears. Ok, there was sobbing. Jerk lady.

Pascal86 · October 2017

@zaclina Yeah I should totally just put it back upstairs. It's super big and heavy (which is why it's so perfect for napping!), but I could do it...

I got asked if I was having twins so many times at the end of my pregnancy. There was definitely crying involved.

zaclina · October 2017

@Pascal86. Do it! Then post a picture of victory on the board! Surely someone who also loves naps will help.

My bff is on my bitch list today. I love her but every time we go on vacation, she drives me NUTS. Her kids wake up at 6am and woke the whole house up every time. EXCEPT HER. So she sleeps in while the rest of us have to wrangle her kids. I spent the whole weekend watching her kids. If they were napping I was back at the house while she was out at the beach. So it was a wasted trip.

Kendrajos · October 2017

@Poppy0419 why didn't you wake her up????!!! I think I would have freaked out! I am sorry your trip was wasted.

I'd be flipping tables.

@Poppy0419 Princesses do not watch other people’s kids on vaca

I would probably stop going on vacation with my friend unless it was a childless one if that’s how it’s gonna be.

Ceridwen77 · October 2017

I can’t even believe how many of you have encountered such rude strangers who asked if you’re pregnant!! That is just so awful. These people need a lesson in tactfulness.

People thinking it is ok to straight out ask if I’m pregnant because I have a “pouch.” I kindly respond that the pouch is left from my first baby and I’ve lost 10 pounds this pregnancy. When I want to tell people my news I will! Pregnant or not, I don’t like to be called fat!

That's some bullshit. I don't think I've ever cried harder in my life than when I was two weeks postpartum and had lost over twenty five pounds and the cashier at the gas station asked him when the baby was due. I started crying in front of him and haven't gone back to that gas station to this day.

When I was two weeks PP with my first, I was shopping for nursing bras in Soma. With my baby. The girl asked when I was due. You can't fix stupid.

My son was FOUR days old in a carrier and we were going for a check up at the doctors. The receptionist "you're going to have our hands full soon! Two babies so close in age!" He exclaimed!

Uhm, sir. My son is four days old and what you're implying is not even humanly possible. What you're commenting on is my post partum fat...

I have an annoying boss-but-not-really-a-boss but we have to treat her like one co-irker.

I know I'm a day late, and a dollar short, but she just annoys me soo much.

Same woman I griped about last week. She's in tears because she did not get the full four hours to plan storytime today. I want to pull my hair out. Four hours to plan a storytime. How is that even possible? What it translates to is "I don't have to do any shelving or take any responsibility because I have storytime." Lady, this is the children's department-we ALL have storytime. And crap still has to get done. Also (surprise) you are a clerk and expected to shelve. I am a department head and I shelve every stinking day. Your number one job is to shelve-read the discription!

That person would never survive a school. All the shelving, all the planning, all the story time, all the everything.

When I worked in a bookstore, no one would clean/organize the kids section because it was "too much work." Ummmm..... YOU WORK IN A BOOKSTORE. GET USED TO IT.

suchaglencoco · October 2017

@zaclina, I got size comments from strangers all last pregnancy. They'd ask how far I was and I'd tell them. They would then say I'm way too big for that far along and I'd explain I was pregnant with twins. Then I'd get told I'm way too small and need to eat more.
People just need their opinion to be heard no matter how dumb it is.

I remember buying a set of 5 white plain onesies for a project for our announcement photos and they were newborn size. The woman behind me said I was wasting my money because no kid is born that small and whoever I was giving it to would realize I knew nothing about baby birth sizes. I explained they were for me and for the twins I was currently pregnant with and she still procedded to explain they'd be too big and "you'll see I'm right".
Well she was wrong. So so wrong. My kids were born a month early and are still in the appropriate clothes sizes for their age.

There is just something about a pregnant woman to makes people (mostly other women who have had children from my experience) run their mouths. And you can't be too snippy with them or they'll blame your hormones which will really send you over the edge. I really hate people, haha. I think I stopped going out in public alone after 7 months because I was too big to hold my tongue with strangers and I didn't want to go to jail.

sandbar517 · October 2017

@suchaglencoco SO MUCH THIS!!!!!! That annoyed the crap out of me, too. I'm too big for one baby, but too small for two? What the what?

charlestonchew · October 2017

People need to learn you are to never ask a woman she's pregnant. Even if the baby is crowning.

I've only had one comment saying "oh I see a baby bump" and I was definitely not pregnant. And in the McDonald's drive thru.

sandbar517 · October 2017

@charlestonchew Your post made me lol. However, as a former ER nurse, I'm pretty sure in that situation it's perfectly acceptable to ask LOL

rachelg777 · October 2017

A few weeks ago (7.5 weeks) I got a bloody nose on an airplane and the stewardess was asking if I got them frequently. I told her no it’s probably because I’m pregnant. She was like “oh! Yeah I can kinda see something...” Hmmm....yeah I had zero signs of a baby bump.

gildah · October 2017

I was huge with DD2. Lots of fluid, big baby and massive placenta. People would walk up to me and comment on how big my belly was and I would just stare at them and not say a word, watching as they started to squirm and struggle to come up with something else to say. Seriously, when people offend you, just stare them down. It's delicious....

yesthisiskim0401 · October 2017

Here's for all those assholes making pregnancy comments

Poppy0419 · October 2017

@Kendrajos @ivyvines6 @silverhope Maybe I'm too nice or maybe I didn't have the balls to do it because I hate confrontation. I don't really know. It happens every single time. Even if I'm staying at their house. It's insanely frustrating to everyone. I love her kids but I'm so tired of being taken advantage of. But I won't be joining them next year. not worth my time or money.

sbaby2019 · October 2017

Last December a client asked me when I was going on maternity leave...I wasn't pregnant!!! I said... uh, well I wont be, so then she started saying oh it must be someone on your team! Nope, wrong again.
Now I refuse to wear the dress I had on ever again. Geeze can't people wear loose empire style dresses without being asked if they are pregnant?!

mommabmb · October 2017

The place I ordered my maternity "reveal" shirt from for work (it is just a shirt with a picture of a bun in an oven- nothing groundbreaking).... DOES NOT COME IN MATERNITY SIZING. Like, what? Who wants a regular sized shirt with a freaking bun in an oven on the belly?

Stupid.

thedawkterswife · October 2017

I bought a metric fuckton of foodnthisnweekend at the grocery store to feed my cravings. Now? I open the fridge and cupboards and gag. Wtf.

Hubby is having leftovers and picking me up something delicious on his way home.

Last pregnancy, we announced to my aunts at a breakfast when one was in town visiting. I bought a shirt and one of those iron on printer sheets from Michaels. I quick designed a movie poster called "Two Buns, One Oven" and it worked out pretty well. Definitely got the point across easily and I got exactly what I wanted on it. Maybe that's an option for you?

That would work. I have a friend that does vinyl. I think I'm just going to bring her the shirt and let her iron one on. I just thought that was so ridiculous. I mean- who would want that?

I bought a maxi dress last time and had it delivered to the office. It was not a maternity maxi. Just you average run of the mill dress I bought for a wedding shower.
a few weeks later I announced my pregnancy at the office and a girl was like I knew you were pregnant when you got that maxi dress!

I have a maxi skirt balled up from being thrown in a fit of rage in the corner of my closet, never to see the light of day again, because I was asked if I was pregnant while wearing it after losing some weight.
I should pull that bitch back out now just so I can be like "YEP. SUCK IT."

crazyliblady · October 2017

@JenniatONU seriously! This woman...things will change soon, one way or the other. No one thinks what she does is okay, but no one wants to make a 64 year old woman cry, and she knows it I think. I've done school and public library, and I was always running around like crazy. I will freely admit that I find public to be easier, though.

lokibear89 · October 2017

Crabby customer's and patients getting pissy about things beyond my control. I lost my shit today and couldn't even be bothered to feel bad about it. Bring on the rest of my six day week

knottfeelndis2day · October 2017

Like...... what does it matter if the baby is a boy or a girl? And why are you rooting for a girl

abhphilly · October 2017

@mommabmb To be fair, I got one of those maternity skeleton shirts to announce, and got it specifically non-maternity because I’ll only be 14 weeks and don’t think I’ll fit maternity shirts until well into the 2nd trimester.

Want a personalized experience?
