Stabby Saturday! 7/28

cjx95 · July 2018

What's got you worked up today??

cjx95 · July 2018

I cant get tb app to load up so I'm on mobile which is slower than slow and if it's any indicator on how my day will go I'm not going to be a happy camper... I have a friends 2 year old birthday party to go to and it's supposed to be stormy and raining all day, hope they have a big house to fit people...

rabtaido1214 · July 2018

My apps not working either. Deja vu. It’s a Saturday too, I have so much time to spend on TB. Boo.

sammierose464 · July 2018

+3 for the app being a jerk. I finally got in after the 3rd or 4th try.

SweetSweetTooth · July 2018

App is working fine but nothing else is going smoothly this morning. I am tired so that makes me extra clumsy and the fact if knowing it will get worse once baby gets here makes me stabby and just want to cry. I don't do well on less than 8 hrs and DH was keeping me awake this morning with his tossing and turning. He gets grumpy on limited sleep so thankfully we aren't around one another much today!
Edit spelling

My uterus has me stabby. Literally, it’s being stabby. I’m so fucking over these BH contractions. I’ve talked to my OB and it’s nothing to worry about, but I’m having them all the GD time and I’m not a fan. Also it’s making H all jittery because for spurts (less than an hour) they’re definitely five minutes or less apart, and a minute-ish long. It’s usually not my whole uterus though, and it doesn’t hurt as much as labor contractions, but I’m wicked grumpy over it.

Stabby over feeling like I have to pee. all. the. time. Everytime I stand up, I have to pee. At least being in the water takes all the pressure of my bladder! The only positive side to being pregnant in the south in the summer.

cdepperschmidt · July 2018

@DunkinDecaf I’m with you on the BH. They suck and I think they suck more than they did with DS.

SweetSweetTooth · July 2018

Stabby because pregnancy should be somewhat of a free pass to eat whatever but I have eaten really good the majority of this pregnancy. Now with my blood sugars being monitored there is no chance of the occasional indulgence. I have a work trip in August and I will be fully enjoying the freedom for a few days to eat whatever assuming my blood sugar is ok and I don't need to be put on insulin (which I don't see)

I made 2 boxes of macaroni and cheese (which I've been craving for weeks) in preparation for dinner and had to stop in the middle of cooking to deal with ODD who was having a fit in her room, came back to find that the macaroni had cooked too long and all the water was gone and the noodles were cooked to the bottom of the pan and completely burned. My hormonal little heart was devastated. Also our fridge AND washer both crapped out on us and the repair guys don't come til Monday, my towels came out of the wash smelling RANK and I can't rewash them and have no clean towels, DF got unexpectedly switched to day hours AGAIN and was notified the day before he's supposed to start those hours which means we had to scramble to reschedule all of our shit next week including my midwife appointment and ODD's therapy appointment, and I'm currently sitting on an ice pack because I feel like my pubic bone has been hit by a bus and little monster won't stop clawing at my cervix.
PHEW, I've been needing to vent all day haha

chyvie · July 2018

@mytrueloves ugh sorry your day isn't going so well. Hope it turns around and you get the Mac and cheese soon!

purplegoldfish2 · July 2018

+1 to BH. I’ve been having them since 16 weeks and they are annoying. I definitely need to drink more water to keep them from being so frequent.

@SweetSweetTooth I also didn’t function well with too little sleep before kids, but somehow managed after the boys were born. I was nursing and think I remember something about the hormones from giving birth and nursing making us better able to cope with the sleep interruptions. MH, who generally needs less sleep than me, ended up struggling more than I did with the lack of sleep.

AFM - stabby at the lady at the birthday party today that basically said everything she could to annoy me - “you’re due in October? You’re as big as my friend when she delivered!” “You look so uncomfortable.” “You’re finally getting your girl.” (That one had me extra stabby. I wanted to yell at her because we weren’t trying for a girl, I actually initially wanted another set of twins, but after our losses I was just hoping for a healthy baby and I hate that she assumed we just did it to get a girl).

sliztee · July 2018

Man...what is wrong with people?...

rc-cola · July 2018

@mytrueloves i would have been so sad over burnt macaroni! And everything else sounds super stressful.

@purplegoldfish2 I feel you on the wacko commentary.

This is more funny than stabby but yesterday we took the train the Portland Maine from nyc, and then had a car rented to drive to Acadia. When we got to the rental they couldn’t find ours anywhere in the system, even though DH had booked in advance. Of course he accidentally booked for Portland Oregon. We sorted it out but it was really annoying (and then funny) in the moment.

rabtaido1214 · July 2018

@rc-cola oh my I probably would have been really stabby during the stress of figuring that out but it’s hilarious since it worked out! Enjoy acadia!

DunkinDecaf · July 2018

@cdepperschmidt yeah these are way worse than they were with my girls. I mean, everything about this pregnancy has been worse than my previous ones so I guess I’m not surprised, but still. Not a fan.

chyvie · July 2018

So I sent out an email to all DH friends to try to organize something for his birthday in two weeks. Usually DH plans something elaborate because he loves his birthday. This year I suspect he thinks the move is going to take up too much of our time. I think he deserves a celebration after all the stress we have been through. So I suggested dinner and drinks at his favorite pub. His best friend responds back copying everyone: "Is there any interest in something more elaborate?" I was kind of shocked and taken aback. Like yes he deserves that but I have a lot on my plate and only just realized he didn't plan anything for himself so I'm taking this on two weeks ahead of time with us moving in between! I'm also 29 weeks pregnant! I'm a little busy buddy! So I responded with: "I'm sure he would love that if you planned something. I'm already tapped out with the move and everything, so I have no head space to make a plan, but let me know what you decide."
Ugh way to make my nice gesture feel like it's not good enough in front of all his friends?!!

sammierose464 · July 2018

@chyvie I think your response was perfect.

rc-cola · July 2018

@chyvie what a great diplomatic response on your end though. I think that guy sounds clueless.

nasalot188 · July 2018

@chyvie good response. That was rude of him.

chyvie · July 2018

Ok good I'm glad my response didn't seem rude. Thanks ladies

spartan4life · July 2018

It’s no longer Saturday, but I’m definitely stabby this morning. We had a few days of a babymoon with yesterday finishing the weekend with a baby shower for some friends. DH’s best friend is the dad-to-be so while us girls had the shower the guys of course drank all day. DH was up puking all night not because he drank too much but because “he ate junk all day”. Now we have to miss breakfast with our friends before we leave and I have to be the one to drive the 5 hours home. I’m so mad, and of course yelled at him this morning about it. Now I’m the one sitting here feeling guilty because I made him feel worse than he already does. Ugh! Not the best way to finish the weekend

rabtaido1214 · July 2018

@spartan4life I would probably feel the same way. Get pissed, then feel bad. Guys are so immature sometimes and can’t think ahead to what heir actions will result in. Sorry this was the end to your weekend

try to salvage what’s left of your time together today, even if just a car ride. Drive safe!

cjx95 · July 2018

@spartan4life I'd be so mad too, you had every right to get angry with him. Should've left him in the car while you got breakfast. I would have felt guilty after giving him hell too though.

pajamstagrams · July 2018

Stabby at apparently half the population today...trying to get gas at a super busy gas station and more than half the cars at the pump are completely empty, because people leave their car at the pump while they dick around inside for 10 minutes. There's a 10 min line for the pumps and you just leave your car there wasting a pump?!?!?! There's plenty of parking outside the pumps. Gah!

purplegoldfish2 · July 2018

At church today a man I have never seen before walks by and says “twins?” and when we say no he proceeds to tell us how that’s good. Wtf? I know I look big, but who just says that to a random stranger? And then to tell me it’s good we aren’t having twins? Ummm.. we already have twins AND last year we lost what was probably twins, so I would love for them to be here now instead of hearing your stupid comments about the size of my body. I’d normally be stabby about that, but yesterday somebody else commented about how big I am too... I am going to turn into the crazy pregnant lady that starts yelling at people.

eta even Mh was pissed about that guy’s comments, so I know it isn’t just hormones.

pajamstagrams · July 2018

@purplegoldfish2 I'm ragey for you...who says that shit?!?!

chyvie · July 2018

So update to my husband's best friend trying to plan something more elaborate for his birthday. I get a call from him and another guy saying they think DH would love a boys fishing weekend! WTF?!? Are they serious? I just said umm was thinking of something more inclusive of all his friends including his wife to celebrate his birthday!
Like what are they doing? Do they think I wanted to try to organize a celebration and then not go? Stupid men!

sammierose464 · July 2018

Wtf... That seems ridiculous.

chyvie · July 2018

Yeah I'm not sure what to think. I was so upset so I just talked to DH about it and he said I shouldn't stress about it and that they are being unconsiderate and not thinking. He said will he happy with a small gathering with dinner/drinks. He really appreciated me trying to plan anything at all.
Sometimes men can be so dense! I'm glad DH was so surprised at his friends reaction and calmed me down.

HoosOnFirst · July 2018

Um also a weekend away when he has a pregnant wife at home? NO WAY.

spartan4life · July 2018

@rabtaido1214 and @mamabearcj Thanks!! We just got home. I ended up leaving DH at the hotel and going for breakfast with our friends without him. We left shortly after we got done with breakfast, and after about 2 hours in the car he finally apologized and said he felt bad. We had a good long talk about how he just can’t drink as much as most other guys because we just don’t drink that much anymore. When we do drink with friends a few times a year he tries to keep up and the recovery just sucks way worse in your 30s than your 20s! I think he gets it, at least I hope so. I know he feels bad so I’m not mad, more just disappointed that he had to miss breakfast with our friends that we don’t get to see very often and who will be having their baby in 4 weeks so we probably won’t see them until after our LO is born.

cdepperschmidt · July 2018

Ugh! Yesterday I was bragging on DH and today I want to kill him. DS woke up
at 5 am and wandered into our room. This is not abnormal, but this time he didn’t f’ing going back to sleep. So finally at 6:45 I said forget it and we went down stairs, had some cereal and I attempted to snooze while he watched Paw Patrol. Now this would not be a huge deal except I may or may not have stayed up until 1 watching OITNB. So anywho, I’m extra tired and cranky with 4 hours of sleep. DH mentions he wants to go play 9 holes of golf. Fine, sounds good, he leaves at 1, golf course is 30 minutes away. At 2 he texts me and says they decided to play 18, but they’re playing best ball so it should move “quickly”. At 5:30 I call him to get an update and THEY'RE ONLY ON HOLE 13. So DH gets home at 7:45. Asks if we have food (we don’t, DS and I had Panera), turns right around to go to the store, comes home, cooks food and it’s 9 before we get toddler to bed. And he’s irritated because I am not even pretending to care about his golf game. I just want sleep and peace.

SawyerRichardson · July 2018

@cdepperschmidt That’s a whole lot of nope right there. You have every right to be pissed.

purplegoldfish2 · July 2018

@cdepperschmidt He expects you to care about his golf game? Like, the actual golfing part? Even on a good day I wouldn’t care how MH golfed. And he definitely should have helped you get the toddler to bed before going out to get himself food. I’d probably be mad if MH did that too.

norahkate · July 2018

not saturday, but the guys came to pump our septic tanks just before 6:00 this morning. i am not totally stabby because i was awake anyway, but i did have to put on a bra with my pajamas and go out and talk to them and give them the paperwork. their window was 7:30-9:30 because by then i would be at work and dh would be home and i would not have to deal with it at all.
but they were very nice and it is only once every three years so whatever...
