Side-eye Saturday

[emadlma]

Who you giving the side-eye to?

[emadlma]

I am giving it to the FB friend that announced her pregnancy at 6 weeks along. She already has one kid and should know that you aren't in clear until second trimester.

[freddy]

I'm giving it to my cousin's wife who has been been posting that she wants her LO to "hurry up and come out" since she was about 32 weeks pregnant (she's 36 weeks now). She said she wants him to come for her birthday...its in 3 days. There are so many reasons why I'm side eyeing them both but I'm reminded of this one every time I log onto Facebook.

My professors. It's a week before class starts and they still haven't opened our distance learning site and given textbook information.

Thank you for the reminder.  My brother starts back in a week and I haven't ordered his books yet.  Maybe I'll work on teaching him (over the phone) how to order books.

My side-eye goes to my dad who posted on FB this AM saying thank you to an ex of mine for a present he gave him 15 years ago.  Hoping MH doesn't see it, I think his feelings would be hurt.

DH-- he woke up early on a Saturday to drive an hour to buy something he found on craigslist-- for like $15

This pisses me off when I see people posting like this. DS was born at 34 weeks and had to spent 2 weeks in the NICU. I would have given anything for him to have stayed in another 6 weeks.

I'm side eying myself! With the news that Target is closing, I want to buy a ton of baby stuff that will probably be marked down. Here goes the "buy nothing before 2nd tri" rule

So irritating. Yes it's probably uncomfortable being very pregnant, but you don't really want to be done being pregnant early- trust me. I know I'm overly sensitive because my son was born at 29 weeks. People say really stupid things.

My husband who bought me crackers to help with my nausea. And then proceeded to eat them all.

I'm a RN and I worked in the NICU, and this is my big big pet peeve too. I actually got into it with one girl, she was like 31/32 weeks and posted something like we're ready to meet you, you can come out any time now. And I commented saying, actually please don't wish for that. If your baby was born now she would be in the NICU for about 4 weeks minimum and would have to fight for her life. And she replied 'actually something like 92% of babies born after 32 weeks get to go home right away". Oh really? Do they now? I'm glad in all my experience I've only seen the 8% then! You really must know more than me!

My husband did this with sour candy last week!! I feel your pain, they're so clueless sometimes!!!

And then last night I had a ginger ale, and so he had one too and I was like whatever I don't care if he has one, I can't monopolize the ginger ale. Then he gets up and grabs a second one, and I lost my shit. I know I shouldn't have but I'm still stewing about the sour candy. I was like 'I hope when I'm puking my guts out and all I want is a ginger ale there's still one left at the rate you're going through them". Not my proudest moment.

So frustrating. There is so much excitement, but DD was born 8 days "late". I honestly credit that to why she was a relatively easy baby. Being late was miserable but looking back now I would say it was actually beneficial.

To my DH who gave ME the side eye yesterday for saying that I felt nauseous. Helloooooo I'm not making this up buddy!

Wow. Looks like you and @emadima need to make use of the "unfollow" button. My feed is mostly idiot-free because of my liberal approach to hiding people.

DH thinks I'm crazy when I mention increased breast sizes
"No one on that board is far enough along to have bigger boobs"

Umm... Last time I checked, you didn't know shit about being pregnant. STFU.

Look at that profeshiunal!!!1!1!! Haha

Either My boobs are bigger or someone prank me by switching my bras to one size smaller

[euphony]

I side eye my husband who is complaining about being tired and bloated. He seems to have decided that he has sympathetic pregnancy symptoms.

[ugotstarbucked]

I'm side eying the lady from my gym this morning in purple camo compression pants talking on her phone instead of working out. Hideous is not a strong enough word for how those pants looked, and put the damn phone down (it's against the rules anyway!!!).

Um yeah I'm already busting out of my bras. SO has noticed they are bigger too. Totally possible. Men! 

[sandj918]

I'm side-eyeing the lady who told me, "Just relax and you'll get pregnant". She didn't know I'm pregnant obviously but she's lucky I only side-eyed her and didn't give her the snarky schpeel on how babies are made.

[tngrl3]

I'm side-eyeing the poster of the thread on the site that must not be named (yeah I still lurk there) who asked who long people have been trying. I feel like that is really personal and not something you would ask anyone IRL. If someone chooses to share that then fine, but it just seem inappropriate to me.

[Deleted]

I'm side eyeing my fridge. Its going out and have lost just about everything. We have some items in a cooler packed with snow. and a double side eye to every fridge repair place for not "servicing our area"

tngrl3 i totally agree. I don't want to answer because it would be pretty offensive i think. its very personal.

You know that no one is "in the clear" in the second trimester either, right?

I guess it's a UO around these parts but I feel like people should be able to announce whenever they want to without judgement. They'll have to deal with u telling if something happens.

I will add that personally, I would never announce that early. Been there, done that and all.

Thank you!  I'm in the "announce whenever the hell you want to!" camp.. but I've BTDT too.  Waited to announce until the second tri and still didn't get to bring my son home, soooooooooooo.

Lol it's a message board, and that is a common GTKY question IMO.

I also side eye the bitch who posted "yay lets get some positivity on this birth month!" Bitch please. You've been on tb for 5 minutes. Have fun with the millions of symptoms posts and the "what gender am I having!?"

THANK you! I was so irritated with that shit.

I don't know if you heard that gentle whooshing, but I am pretty sure it was the sound of a dozen simultaneous side-eyes being directed your way.

Ohhkay ?

[andtheheartbreakers]

Went to a ladies game night with a few close friends, one of whom is also pregnant (32 weeks). I told everyone I was pregnant, and a different friend texted her boyfriend to tell him because she was excited. She got an answer back, started laughing and read it out loud. It said "Ew, now she's fat with saggy boobs. Fuck kids". And this friend read this text out loud while laughing about it, and how funny her boyfriend is. Is it wrong that I hoped she got KTFU and then her boyfriend could call her fat and she could see how funny it was.

Me and my other pregnant friend enjoyed a long side-eye stare.

I side eye people who use 'lol' when they write it in response to something that isn't actually hilarious.
