WTF Wednesday 2/4/15

[beckyrosen]

Wtf breast pads! And leaky boob! I'm wearing a sports bra because my nursing bra's have been soaked by my leaky boobs. So, one started leaking while I was changing LO this morning so I rushed to put a breast pad in there. Fast forward an hour, I was playing with LO and I notice her pants are wet (only in the knee)... thanks for that boob... my breast oaf was soaked.

[mcm]

WTF poop?! LO almost had a massive blowout, there was so much poop... Then I changed him and BAM, more poop! How?

[bookworm87]

Wtf inlaws? They apparently had certain expectations of how much time they were going to spend with the baby which were completely unrealistic. After weeks of dealing with them wanting to come over multiple nights a week, my husband explained that our plan was to start seeing each set of grandparents on alternating weekends To which they responded by flipping out and saying there "seemed to be an awful lot of excuses why they couldn't see the baby" and that he "should remember how much effort they put into making sure he had a close relationship with his grandparents." The irony of that last statement being that they meant his dad's parents. His mom's family they see on holidays.

Now my husband is stressed because he doesn't want to disappoint his family and I'm stressed because I really don't want to play this game. And the sad part is I really liked my inlaws before this but now I'm starting to resent them.

WTF, uterus! Why are you still bleeding? AF came last Tuesday, and that bitch is still in town.

[serunatu]

Wtf self? Do not tell your baby to STFU in the MOTN no matter how sleep deprived you are, you WILL feel terrible in the morning when you see her sweet, smiling eyes.

That is so frustrating. I hope it gets better.

Different wtf in laws. Why is my sil texting me to tell me that my fil is trying to get in touch with my DH? Like it's my fault my DH was helping me with our LO last night and not answering the phone! (nevermind it's my birthday and none of them remembered!) So glad my DH fell far from that tree!

WTF boss! When I told you I was pregnant you insisted I still come back and nanny and bring the baby. You kept insisting this point through the time I left for maternity leave. I text you when I get cleared from my MW at my 6 week appt that I can start any day and you say "let me get back to you in a few days". I figured it was to discuss your temps last day with her. Nope, it was to wait a week the send me an email that you want to remain best friends but that I no longer have a job and if I really thought about it I would agree it's best. WTF?! Her reasons included "traffic" and me wanting to be a SAHM...I never told her that... And now I get to find a job in the next 2 weeks so we can afford to keep eating and hope I can bring LO or find decent care. She also said they decided this around the time LO was born...so why wait till she's almost 8 weeks to tell me I am out of a job?! Grrrrr....
For the record...we are no longer "best friends" (we never were?)

MIL's ex husband...I just got lo to fall asleep. I don't care that you can't see her eyes, don't you dare pinch her toes to wake her up. I don't think it's a funny joke. You should just feel lucky we let you come see her. I don't like you.

WTF? who wakes up a sleeping baby? Oh wait...the people who don't have to stay up all night with them...that's who.

That sucks, I hope you find something!

[jennielee123]

WTF migraine, please go away. It's really hard to take care of a baby when all I wanna do is lay in bed with the covers over my head.

[stormygrace]

WTF LO..why are you freaking out and popping off the boob constantly lately? Have we started our 6 week growth spurt early?

this is illegal for you to lose your job because you were pregnant/had a baby. I would keep this email and if you so chose, you could pursue action against this.

at a minimum I would tell your "friend" how you feel, ie that you need to find a new job asap with a newborn in order to continue to feed your family. It sounds like you have nothing to lose.

serunatu also guilty and guilty of telling my mother I was going to "punt this baby out the window" lol, sorry I laugh because I would never ever hurt my girl but I was about to lose my mind at that point

[ThePregosaurus]

Ohhh WTF brain! I was lying in bed awake last night bc my brain kept replaying and over again a super embarrassing moment from earlier.. I was at the hospital for a post-op visit and since it's snowed so much recently the parking lot was very crowded and there were a LOT of people driving around. I had finally found a spot only to get told I was in the valet parking lot (totally didn't see the sign since I was so intent on finding an empty spot before I was late to my apt). So I backed out of the spot and stopped bc the parking attendant was telling me where there were some empty spaces. So I decided to back up some more to turn around. I remember looking behind me and seeing that I cleared the giant snow bank and then BANG.. I backed into some cement barricade that was in a blind spot. It wasn't very hard but I did scratch the bumper a bit. So not only did I hit something, but I did it in front of the attendant after parking in the wrong lot. I felt like such a moron. I swear I'm a good driver. I've never been in an accident or hit anything like that so it makes sense that I would do it in front of someone. I was just frazzled I guess. THEN, since I scratched it, I had to tell DH (I should mention I was driving his car). Such. Stupid little insignificant event but it's stuck on replay on my head. Ugh!

[babyrn2009]

It's technically Thursday, but I don't care!

DH discovered DS's first tooth on Sunday. At 8w2d. Seriously, WTF?? He is a clamper/biter when he breastfeeds, so I am NOT happy. With my first kid I would have been elated to find a tooth so early! Irony...
Also, the thought of missing the gummy grin stage entirely makes me want to cry! :-(

[feeshahd]

I'm late posting.
But...
WTF DH! WHY do you decide to go get sick and act like and even bigger baby then the BABY???
Whines and complains about how sick you are but you refuse to take any medicine to help ease symptoms...GRRRR

Why do they do this?! Why do they not take the meds?! It drives me absolutely insane! I understand if it's something addictive, but just take some damn mucinex or nyquil and be done with it!

RIGHT!?!?
I got a nasty awful head cold a few days after having LO and I know I was no where near as bad as him. I had a sore throat, nasty cough that had me spitting out what I can only assume was small chunks of my lungs, sinus congestion, headache, and that sensation where you are freezing but you're really hot to the touch. AND my body hurt from giving BIRTH, AND was trying to take care of my stitched up Frankenstein vagina that was oozing gross goo all while my body was trying to produce breast milk while running on less then 1.5 hours at any given time.
( first two weeks pp was hard )

Ugh. Frustrating.

End rant

I had a sinus infection before I went into labor, and lying on the table for my c put it over the edge. I had a bronchitis cough after my abdomen was ripped open and a horrible sinus infection. DH gets a cold right after, though, and it's the end of the dreaming world. Men have no clue.

Had a wtf moment this morning because of something I forgot yesterday...I saw my lunch bag on the dining room table and remembered that 15oz of milk I pumped at work yesterday were still in there and hadn't been refrigerated all night. It is depressing to have to throw that much hard work into the trash. Damn cold.

Omg! I'm so upset for you!!!

I probably would have cried.

I bet you never forget again, though!

Over the summer, my brother-in-law removed 100+oz from their chest freezer to get to something else, and forgot to put it back. My sister was beside herself, and she said they both cried in devastation.

I think I would have killed him!

I was sick a few weeks back but I got no more help than usual from DH. Then when they both got what I had I got to take care of a fussy refusing to sleep baby and got NO help from DH because I made him sick! Men really do turn into babies when they are sick.
