Let's hear it ladies!!
Mine is thank you annoying ass neighbours for thinking your so funny banging on the walls every time LO cries or makes a noise that you can hear you truly are a bunch of assholes!!!
Thank you step kids grandparents for proving very quickly it makes more sense for them to be with us than you. How dare you make my step children sleep on the floor with no heat around rabbit poop. You will never see them again if I have any say
That is absolutely horrible!! Poor kids some people are idiots!!!

I would go off and bang right back. Assholes.
Wtf ILs.....LO only gets beyond upset and wailing pissed when you are here. NO, it is NOT gas...it is you and your awkwardness. Also, when I say LO is tired stop with the constant stimulation. It stresses him and me out. We're going to have a pow-wow about it next time you come over.
I so should!! I called the landlord already! It's not the first time we've had to complain about there assholeish ways! And that's why LO is still in our room as well because it sounds like they are constantly tossing a ball against the wall where her crib is
Ugh I hate when people don't listen to me about MY child!!
The past week in chronological order: 1. Insurance screw up means I'm out $1125 and there's nothing to do about it. 2. Flat tire. 3. Barfing 2 year old. 4. 9 week growth spurt and up every hour two nights in a row. 5. We all have a bad cold, the growth spurt is over but LO wake herself up coughing every 2-3 hours. 5. Barfing husband! 6. Snow day at daycare.
I have the best best friend ever though, she came by and took the 2 yr old for a play date with her toddler. They had the norovirus two weeks ago so she thinks they'll be OK.

That is a rough week! I hope this one is better for you

This b fest is dedicated to my poor DH who told me to go back to bed at 5am and that he'd take care of DS. (We had a bad night. I was up from about 2-5am).. While I LOVE that he did this for me, I don't like hearing about how tired he is every 10 mins like it's the first time this has happened to anyone.
Also, this is my last week of maternity leave D: I'm starting to feel really anxious and stressed. I was a little excited a few weeks ago but now that it's here I'm a ball of anxiety.

I go back the week after next. I cry every time I think about it. Like, right now. ? There must be a way we can survive on DH's salary alone, no?? Ugh.

Mine is petty compared to all these legitimate complaints. Apparently it has been a rough week for D14 moms. Hope this week goes smoothly for everyone!
My bitch is that I bought a second nursing pillow so I could run one through the wash while still having one to use. I double checked that they were machine washable before running it through. It worked fine the first couple times but this last time the washer destroyed one of them. I can't stop washing them because they get super gross and I don't really want to buy a third one so there isn't really anything to do about it. I'm just disappointed.

bookworm87, why is the pillow getting so gross? My LO spits up a lot. I started putting a blanket or thick burp cloth where her head is. If she spits up, it goes on the blanket/cloth. Makes it much less gross for us. I've washed the pillow but I feel much better now about my pillow.

We've been sick for 3 weeks in this house, one person at a time. First the 2 year old, then 4 year old, then me and now this morning DH says he has a sore throat. OMG, get this flippin' cold out of our house!!! I pray baby avoids it all together...
I put a thick burp cloth on the pillow. I also tuck one under my boob and then put it under LO's chin like a bib. When I go to burp him, I fold the burp cloth up over my boob so it catches any leaking.
I may need an intervention. I'm also just about completely finished using nursing pillows at this point.

DH informed me today that he doesn't feel well. I am dreading the symptoms of the man cold. He will just lay in bed and the minimal help I get now will be non-existent. He will use the excuse that he doesn't want to get LO sick but it's really because he is a bigger baby than she is. Plus we are going through the 8 week wonder week and I'm on my own for it.

I do put a burp cloth under him some of the time but it always seems like we are running out of burp clothes. And it is just one more thing to get set up and positioned correctly. Clearly I need to get more burp clothes and get over it but I really thought I had a brilliant solution by just buying the second pillow. I really just wanted to buy some covers for the pillow but I have the Gia and the covers were more expensive than a new pillow. Which brings us to one nice fluffy clean pillow and one broken floppy sad (but also clean) pillow.
OMG Facebook!!! Thank you for spazzing out and making me login into my account with my password that I forgot!!! Now I can't log in and you keep telling me my email does not match my account even though you send me updates to that account!!!! Ugh
Alright power company, we get it. It's very cold and icy outside tonight. But you maybe should go ahead and start fixing all the downed power lines. Since the power went out at 10 I've just been an anxious mess trying to make sure my baby stays warm and the temperature is just continuing to drop.
Oh and btw DH, yes I do have to have LO in sleep in bed with me tonight. In case you haven't noticed the aforementioned conditions, I've got to keep her warm (as you lay there in your burrito of blankets complaining).
gdaniels77 What else exactly does he expect you to do with her?? I would be freaking out if my power was out. Since he doesn't want her in bed, I suppose he is volunteering to stay up with her all night, cuddling on the couch??
You know what really grinds my gears? When people ask if my baby is a "good baby." What does that even mean?? She has gas and cries a little more than the average baby. Does that make her bad? Is that her fault? She is 9 weeks old and doesn't sleep for 8 hours at a time. Does that make her bad? I don't get it.
My grandmother told me yesterday that I should take LO to the doctor because he was crying. What?!?
Does she want him to say, "hey guys, I'm hungry"?
This...MH always insists something is wrong with LO if she cries the tiniest bit more than usual. Dude...she's 7 weeks old. She can't talk. Crying is her only way of communicating!!
I know it's Tuesday but seriously...my mother is driving me crazy! She is wonderful with LO but anytime she cries my mom insists "maybe her tummy hurts" "I think she has gas" "her face gets red when she cries, she must be in pain!" "Something is wrong, I've had babies and this ISNT normal!" Ugh....LO is fine. Perfectly happy most of the day. She gets fussy from about 5-9 in the evening. Sometimes she screams. But she is able to be calmed down and comforted. MW said she is fine. Maybe a little gas but also, babies need to cry sometimes. Sometimes they need to scream. It's part of their development. I am not a bad mother. I can tell when something is actually bothering her. It is quite a different cry. And even so I am rocking her, playing her music, swaddling her, shushing, singing, offering the boob and paci. I am not ignoring her. I don't need to hear the same things insisting something is wrong ever 10 seconds while she is crying...DOESNT help! DH said something tonight but it didn't phase her...
