WTF Wednesday 1-21-15

[penguininthecity]

What's your WTF today?

[penguininthecity]

Two WTFs.

WTF brain... You just dated a thread for the wrong year... Again. (Fixed)

WTF rest of body? Little less than 7 weeks PP and I still have gross discharge. You are also the cause of my lack of sleep last night... Why are you so sore?!

Wtf self - why did you feel the need to eat a box and a half of girl scout cookies yesterdat. The stomach ache yesterday sucked and so did this mornings poop. Wtf future self - why did you finish off the other half of that box of cookies?!?!

Which kind? I would kill a man for Samoas right now!

[mcm]

WTF LO of mine? You usually wake up in the morning, nurse, and are wide awake. Not today. You are in the deepest of sleeps after nursing. If I would have known, I would have fell asleep too. But nope... Wide awake with a boob out and a super sleepy baby on me. Grrrreat.

I'll embrace the cuddles though. It's all I can do. ;-)

[penguininthecity]

My other WTF is more appropriately on the late term loss boards, but if you react to it, please do so here... Danke!

Woowwwww. People are idiots. I'm sorry you had to deal with that. If you would like me to kick said barista in the balls for you, just provide address...

[danisgossipgirl]

WTF ass? I've never seen you look so big. Further, why so hawt from the side view yet wide and flat from the back?

I'm sorry. I'm even more sorry to say that this is only the beginning...people are going to say the weirdest fucking things to you - and they will have these expectations about how they think you are supposed to act or feel about your loss. Just know that they are well-meaning, even if the execution is completely wrong. Hugs.

Normally, I let the "you'll have more children" equivalents roll off my back, but predicting the sex of our potential rainbow is completely a WTF...

[erien22846]

WTF cold season viruses. My 5 month old nephew who visited this weekend was diagnosed with RSV on Monday. DD is now congested and coughing. It's just a cold, it's just a cold...

For real.
I want to post the IT crowd picture that says "People. What a bunch of bastards." But I don't know how ?

[gradschoolmama]

WTF lo? You've been a mellow little love bug for a month and you've suddenly become a fussy boob obsessed monster. If this is a growth spurt, mommy might want you to stay littlle and lay off the growing for a bit!

Forgive me for asking if its rude, HP, but do you have any answers about what happened? Or is it completely unexplained? (ignore me if you don't want to answer. I don't know if its ok to ask.)

thinking of you as always.

YHPM...

So sorry you had to encounter that!

[serejane]

Ugh that's awful HP.

WTF DH I love how helpful you are taking the early night shift with the girls so I can sleep without interruption for a couple hours...but do you need to:
-keep dropping the formula scooper back into the container when there is a spoon rest in the top and you always open the container to it sitting there
And
-in the event the girls need a full formula feed (usually once a night at least) and use up the rest of the water in the formula keurig do you need to leave the water tank empty so it can't be used again until being refilled AND rewarmed??

Pet peeves

[fergie17]

WTF self you had zero hormonal issues during pregnancy and pp, but yesterday 7 weeks pp you had a major meltdown and the weepies all day. Grab some desserts and pull yourself together!

[mlee116]

HP, I'm so sorry you had to deal with that. People do not use their brains sometimes and it sucks when it's incredibly insensitive.

Wtf self, why can't you quit snacking and eating crap? Its time to stop the insanity!

[gdaniels77]

HP, you are such a strong woman if you didn't tell the lady to kindly fuck off. Even if they are just trying to be helpful, I'm sorry you have to endure insensitive comments like that from people that just don't know when to keep their mouth shut. Creepy internet hugs.

[raechay]

For my LO - apparently 3 am is your earliest acceptable bedtime. Your mom really regrets the fact that she stayed up til 3-4 am almost every night throughout her entire pregnancy with you. #ShiftWorkProblems

[gdaniels77]

Wtf "supervisor" for putting me back on the schedule for next week in assumption that I would be cleared for work at my appointment today. I wasn't cleared, but maybe you might have had some inkling of that happening if you would have bothered to call me even once on my whole maternity leave. So you have no right to act annoyed about it. This is even more frustrating considering I may have to stay at work and not be able to be a SAHM for a year as originally planned. At least I've got two more weeks with LO before having to revisit the subject.

And wtf body for deciding to start bleeding again, and now apparently pouring blood every time I go poop. Not cool. Not cool at all.

[amyface813]

WTF apartment. Why are you so small! Why don't you have a yard? Oh yeah, we're broke.

Peanut butter patties and thin mints. It's barely after 10 am and I already finished the other box.

I heart you.

(((Hugs))) I'm so sorry. I think people don't know what to say, and usually end up saying the completely wrong thing. :-(

[jennielee123]

WTF cat, thanks for vomiting up a hair ball on my bed. I just washed that comforter. You suck.

Isn't it always fresh from the laundry when that happens???

[birch113]

WTF, brain?
So, I've been EPing, but today I offered the boob following the LCs advice, expecting more of a "recreational feed" rather than a true feed, since we've only had one good weighted feed. Well, LO went to town! It went so well, I offered at both feeds following that. I followed up with the bottle of BM expecting him to suck it down, but he ended up appearing at least partially full from BFing. I pumped about 7pz less than usual, and I'm hoping it's because LO got it from the boob himself. I actually didn't have to supplement with formula at all today - a first for us. I should be celebrating, but I can't help doubting our BFing skills because of our history, and worry that I'm starving him. He's peacefully sleeping, so logically I know he's not hungry or he would be up crying, or would have finished the last bottle I offered. But still I can't help but stress.

That sound great! I would try to have confidence in your instincts and trust that your LO will tell you when he's hungry! If it seemed like he got enough he probably did.

That's sure great news! I can see how it'd be hard, but try and trust your boobies did their job!
