WTF I’ve been up since 4:30 when DH left for the airport. The plus side, my work has a delayed opening at 10am due to ice so I think I’m going to turn it into a work from Home day. Don’t feel like going out or taking DS to daycare. Then I can nap this afternoon lol
So we were pretty late from our NT appointment yesterday - they tried for almost an hour to get a view of the back of baby's neck but baby was completely uncooperative. So we were about an hour later picking up DS than normal and the teacher (not one of his normal teachers) says to us "he's sooooo fussy because he's never here this late!" Right. Thanks. I don't feel guilty already AT ALL for late pick-up and you just made me feel so much better about it.
Normally NBD but the mom guilt kicked in big time.
This probably belongs in a Monday BF or something, but i need to get it out today. Spoilered for long rant:
I have some friends who have had kids (and some who haven't) who - I guess they think they're being funny? - but they constantly make comments like "Oh you're never sleeping again!" and stuff about how having babies is a terrible thing, full of self-sacrifice. Sometimes their stupid comments don't even make sense! Like I was venting about how I was getting different opinions from different doctors, and one of my mom friends goes "Well, just get used to it." And I was like.. "What? You repeatedly have different doctors tell you different stuff?" And she's like "No... I just mean in general." ???? Wth does that mean??? Then I told another friend that i had eaten sauteed kale in my car and it made it smell like a 3 day old dirty diaper. And she's like 'Well, you have to get used to that.' First of all, I know what diapers smell like. I'm okay with it. I raised 3 younger brothers after our mom died. I know how to do the diaper thing. Second of all, why do I have to get used to my food smelling like diaper??? It just makes me angry when I'm already stressed out and anxiety ridden about this pregnancy, and people are constantly painting it in a negative light - or saying stupid little snide comments. I KNOW I should plan on less sleep, I KNOW babies make noise, I KNOW they poop... Jesus. Just be positive for a while. Is that so hard? Fuck.
TL;DR - WTF stupid friends who say dumb stuff and think they're funny but they're just dumb.
@hezzer78 - ugh, sorry. People can be insensitive twats and think that you need to know their opinion on everything about your life. Especially your friends. That just sucks and I'm sorry. @ladygali not more snow! Is there another place you and DS can go today? @scottishlass1213 - yes to nap! I hope you have a great day at home!
@hezzer78 ugh, I HATE when people do shit like that. I especially hate the whole “just wait until...” comments. DS was a pretty chill baby, stuck to his NICU feeding schedule after he came home and always slept well. Any time DH and I would say something about it, we’d get “just wait until he’s older” or “just wait until he gets picky.” Like, STFU, not all kids are alike.
I’m WTF’ing this illness that will not leave my house. DH has been coughing for the past month, DS started coughing last week and now I got it over the weekend. I’m over this winter!
WTF to last night's This is Us. I was expecting the one Sunday to be a bawl-fest but last night's was so much worse! I woke up with a headache probably from crying related dehydration. (Spoiler is also show related)
Dr. K kills me every time, I get hysterical just seeing him on screen.

@hezzer78 I'm sorry. You could have an amazingly easy kid. Both of mine have slept really well from the get go, and aren't really fussy about much.

@legallykate I am so there with you. I thought Sunday's show was tame in comparison. My eyes are so swollen today. Literally laid there for an hour with my eyes just leaking. My husband kept patting my head and looking at my like I was crazy. That episode. Ugh.
@hezzer78 That's really annoying. Sorry that people are being like that
@mrsbubbles-2 I'm so sorry, I totally get that. One time in the year of DS being at daycare I got there at 5:55 (closing time is 6pm). DH was out of town and I was doing the best I could but we have no help. I was stuck in a horrible traffic jam and the teacher (again, not the normal one) said something snippy to me and I just replied, "yeah, today has been wonderful, thanks for adding to it. When you see the body bags next to the accident scene it really puts being late in perspective though".
@hezzer78 people suck. Unfortunately it seems like everyone has an opinion about kids. Mine has always eaten & slept fairly well, and the only issue I have is that he’s sooo active, he exhausts me.
My WTF is directed at MIL. They didn’t tell us FIL was having minor surgery yesterday. Now MIL needs to run errands today. FIL can’t drive after his procedure, so MIL called me because she’s too afraid to drive in the snow. Woman, you have a Dodge Ram 2500 that you can lock into 4WD to go through the snow. Not to mention I’m subbing FT now and would be working today if school wasn’t cancelled for the 8+” of snow we’re currently getting. I cannot constantly come at her beck & call, with almost no notice, because they refuse to tell us when they actually will need our help. And I really hope DH talks to her about this because I’m sick of her not listening to me.

And I really hope DH talks to her about this because I’m sick of her not listening to me.
I wish I knew what to say, but I sympathize so much with this, only it's with my own mom. Ever since my dad passed away she refuses any help, like struggling along alone is her penance for how shitty she treated him before he passed suddenly. Even though the thought of a 71yo widow taking care of and maintaining a rural 10 acre property on her own is patently ridiculous, we've had to just wash our hands of it a lot of the time because we're done "playing games". We're not mind readers, if you need help, ask for it and let us help. Don't refuse our help and then get mad when we didn't magically show up when you thought we should.
@hezzer78 I got so many comments like that from coworkers when I was pregnant with DS. It bugged the hell out of me. And DS was a horrible sleeper and I didn’t sleep through the night again until he was 18 momths. But guess what. It wasn’t THAT bad. And the love I have for him is so incredibly worth it. And I’m willing to do it all again because I miss it. And I want another kid. Yes I cry and lose my shit. And I feel like a horrible mom sometimes. But it’s all so incredibly worth it. That’s what I wish people would say to pregnant women. It’s hard but it’s f**ckin worth it. Okay, off my soap box.
WTF to my sister in law for telling me she’s not as excited about this kid as she was DS. Yeah, probably no one is, but I am, so shut up. That’s something you keep in your head
WTF to over-the-top clingy best friends. I'm a severe introvert struggling with my own nightmare zoo of unfamiliar and unpredictable emotions right now, the last thing I need is you being all clingy and needy at me all of the bloody time. I don't need you at my house every weekend, no matter how much you pout. Please stop referencing what time I go to bed and what time I get up and thinking I want to chat. Please stop pouncing on me every time you see my Messenger app list me as "active", I'm seriously considering uninstalling the damn thing. I'm sorry your marriage and life sucks, but you chose it, leave me alone for a while.
That’s it exactly @neeraja_k. I’m so sick of their games. It’s like, act like an adult and tell us WTF is going on when it’s likely you’ll need us to drive you places. If we’re both working they can’t call us at 11am and expect us to take them somewhere at 1pm. It’s gotten so much worse since DH’s niece moved in with them though. She doesn’t have her drivers license, and FIL indulges her by driving her everywhere. So when FIL can’t drive her, MIL calls us instead of getting in the car herself.
My WTF is to the weather. We are supposed to get snow the next couple of days and if it interferes with my flight first thing Friday morning, this momma will not be happy! I need my few days away in Cali with my girlfriends!! (First world problems, I know...)
@melprop Yup, it's the games that kills me. And I've said, "Why can't she just be a fucking adult and ask for help..." sooo many times, rather than playing the game to see how much we care or don't care. Despite her age, I've just come to accept she's emotionally immature. Like making you jump through all of the extra hoops of attention apparently means you care more. Uh, no, it means I'm pissed off and less likely to help you again.
The only advice I can say is be firm, consistent, and put your foot/feet down. My mom's gotten slightly better, but it's like reverse psychology to undo the "games" urge for her.
WTF baby name Facebook group. Some people are so effing weird about names. I said a name sounded more like a boy name than a girl name when prompted for an opinion and it's like I was a gazelle surrounded by lions. I am so put off by people like that. Just STFU and we can all share our stupid opinions like adults. Damn. My block list from that group alone is outrageous.
@Firemanswife11 that's why I don't even comment on names lol. I don't like most of the weird names and crazy spellings these days so, when I see what people actually really come up with in REAL LIFE I cringe and remember what my mother taught me "if you don't have anything nice to say then don't say anything at all". It doesn't sound like you were being rude though.

No, I try very hard to not be rude about people's suggestions, but if they ask for honest opinions, I'll give mine. It's just silly how serious some people take it.
My wtf is to my MIL who cares more about how SIL’s feelings will be hurt that we haven’t told her about the pregnancy yet than about us actually having another kid. So many texts about how we need to call SIL and tell her—and I’m petty so now I’m holding out just because. And making sure that all my friends and family know before her.
My WTF is at my car and the shop it's currently in. I got a call this morning that I need all new brakes and roters for $1000, I have a torn CV boot, I need a new battery, and I still don't know what's causing the engine stall that I brought it in for! This is the second major unexpected expense this month (the first was DH's periodontal surgery) and I just don't have the funds to get everything done.

I had a similar experience. But MiL wanted me to shoot out a grand text so everyone knew at the same time. Specifically her daughters. Well. Her other DIL and I are best friends. And I would call and tell her first. Lol. But I didn’t say anything. Truth be told DIL knows everything first. Even before SO. But she’s my best friend. That’s what you do. Haha.
@kburg15 HAHAHAHA! Your MIL is being a serious twat. You will tell people when you want to, until then keep your damn nose out of my business!
@derbysquirrel I'm sorry. Cars are never a nice thing to have in the shop. Have they checked on your O2 sensors, to see if thats what is causing the stalls? Thats what was causing my old Kia to stall.

I’ve got another one because I’m sitting here feeling sorry for myself and bawling because DH has been gone for 10 hours out of his total 2 weeks. It’s not like he hasn’t been gone before, a deployment and several schools, trainings etc have cost us years of being together but I’m losing my mind feeling scared about 2 weeks. This is not normal and I blame the hormones. I’ve got to man up because DS will rat me out if he sees me crying lol

Thank you. My anxiety is so high. I’ve felt weird all day and am letting that escalate my anxiety too. I just want to stay home for 2 weeks and not work etc.
@mrsbubbles-2 we braved the snow and went to the children’s museum. I have a Subaru with snow tires, so I don’t get too worried, lol. Now DS is snoring in his car seat and I’m bumping in my garage because he is untransferable.
Double post: I can’t remember tags, but holy hell these MILs and friends. What is wrong with people?
When my friend and I were pregnant at the same time and teaching together, we joked that our work shower theme should be “Just Wait” because that’s all anyone ever bothered to tell us. It’s so effing annoying and negative.
@ladygali I have an un-transferable kiddo too! When we first moved into our neighborhood my supremely nosy neighbor would give me odd looks for driving around and around and around the block, parking in the driveway for 20 min, rinse and repeat. Once she saw me pull DS out of the car seat in the back an hour later she understood. So glad you guys got out!
@mrsbubbles-2 it used to be one of the only ways he’d nap. I’ve spent more time sitting in this car than I care to admit, lol. Good thing for drive thru coffee treats.
Re: WTF Wednesday 2/7
Also wtf DS?! Why you gotta get up so early all the time?
So we were pretty late from our NT appointment yesterday - they tried for almost an hour to get a view of the back of baby's neck but baby was completely uncooperative. So we were about an hour later picking up DS than normal and the teacher (not one of his normal teachers) says to us "he's sooooo fussy because he's never here this late!" Right. Thanks.
