Saturday WTF and randoms!

[maddib]

Ok so I didn't see one of these for today and this is my very first time starting a post but I really had to share this TMI funny info!

DH and I are at walmart right now. He went in to grab a few things while I stayed in the car to eat my delicious curly fries when all of a sudden i have to fart.... OMG guys it wasn't a fart!! I shit my pants in the walmart parking lot!!! I called DH and am making him buy me a pair of pants and underwear. Poor guy it's not easy cause there's no maternity clothes at walmart! We only have our soon to be ex nurse until seven and have so much to do that we can't go back home . Today is her last day with us so we have to get so much done. I hope the pants he finds fit me.. I am gonna have to change in my back seat. This is sooooo embarrassing!!!

[maddib]

Oh and the pants he got are 4xl. I have to hold them up walking through walmart to use the bathroom and find new pants....

[maddib]

@littlechivette I have been there too before pregnancy. It was even more hilarious when DH came out with size 4xl pants!!!! Walking through walmart in way to big sweat pants that don't tie and are falling down my ass was freaking awesome!! At least I kind of fit in. The walmart around here has some pretty classless and shady ppl always in pjs.

[erbear]

Omg how horrible! Glad you have good spirits about it, though!

H said he'd clean today so when I came home from running errands and he was playing a video game and the house wasn't clean? Tear city. Then I opened a bill for bloodwork totaling $375 - that I think was in error as I was given a $375 "uninsured discount" - and cried even more. Man, hormones.

We need to start a club for June 15 Pregnant Mamas Who Poop Their Pants. You're in, I'm in, anyone else care to admit the shame and join our awesome club?

I birthed a 5lb butt baby today and can't seem to unclog to toilet.

[stinybean]

maddib aww honey! I know that's going to happen to me someday soon.

Ouch @mrsblack11 that happened to me a few weeks ago. I swore I was going to tear something.

[pghtruelove]

mrskblack11 that is an everyday thing for me. I have to use a plunger almost everytime I go. I really feel like a lady lately.....

My dog met a newborn for the second time! This is exciting to me.

[sabrinaml]

mrskblack11 this happens to me at least once if not twice a week!

[gilder40]

I took my birth class today. The vag birth video creeped me out. I didn't need to see a video from like the 90's with a lady in all her hairy gloriousness giving birth. Makes me want to go get waxed pronto.

Also, the relaxation technique of visualization...just no. No. Do NOT tell me to imagine my cervix melting away like butter or opening like a flower while I'm in labor. I will punch you in the face.

[maddib]

I feel like my heart is breaking. I was mad at my nurse for leaving but now I am just so incredibly sad and can't stop crying. She just left. It has always been a different situation with us. I have shared my home and life with her for four years. She's lived with me for a few years and is my best friend. She has always been here and has been my person. And now she's gone. I have no idea when I will see her again. I haven't truly been alone since she's always been here. Always there for me and knows me better then anyone. My whole life has just been changed and thrown upside in just a weeks time.

It's so amazing that she touched your life so much but I'm sorry you're losing her. I hope you can find another nurse you love just as much for your little one.

I hope so too. If I can find a good nurse for my daughter I know she will be ok. It's just harder on me then I thought because she's been more then a friend and nurse to me. Such a weird unexplainable bond. More so even then with my BFF from childhood. She was like a part of my home. My everyday normal. 12 hours a day for four years is a lot of time to spend with someone constantly and we had a rhythm and routine that I have never had with anyone else. In a weird way it's like losing a spouse. In a very platonic sort of way if that makes since.

Sorry for the long post. It just really all hit me when we said goodbye...

[missjenniebean]

All day I feel like I have to burp but I start to burp, it isn't a burp that is coming out. So I've been trying to get that under control by not allowing myself to burp when I feel like.

@demanda88 - im sorry he said that! I would be really upset too. *hugs*

Shit is hitting the fan with the BIL wedding situation. It is pointless to write a whole rant about it but they have made clear that they do NOT understand at all why I can't commit to myself and the baby attending the wedding even though we've guaranteed DH. They're trying to guilt us into 100% committing and nothing makes me dig my heels in more than someone refusing to fight fair. The bride and groom want to talk to us about it tomorrow and MIL will be involved too. Yay, I love being martyred. But after the guilt trip, my gloves are officially off and mama bear is out. Bring it.

[mrsmonogrammed]

I got the shittiest (sorry maddib ) sleep EVER last night! I usually get between 8 and 9 hours a night, last night I got 5 and had to work this morning! Not to mention I woke up about 37 times and it took me a good 15 minutes to fall back asleep each time. That's the last time I take a 2 hour nap in late afternoon!
Good news is that I'm not feeling especially tired today and made it 12 hours out of the house (work, shopping, dinner) without falling asleep on my dinner plate

[wegrowsheep]

My crotch feels like it needs a sling to hold everything together. Owww...

Also, I ate a bag of Rollos today, and they were everything I hoped they'd be.

[Deleted]

ladysif that is ridiculous! You absolutely should do what is best for your and your baby. If you aren't comfortable traveling, that should be that. I would just make your husband tell them it isn't up for discussion. They are being unreasonable!

[ladysif]

@ktpatter thank you sincerely for the support, it helps to hear it. My dander is up. They offered to push it back a week "if that helps." They are also insisting that DS1 come and they'd be willing to hire a childcare service to watch him when he would have to be going to bed in the middle of their dinner. So now I get to come off as even more unreasonable when I say I'm not comfortable leaving my 2 year old with a complete stranger at a hotel and returning to the reception site. So fun!

Just...no. Be the "unreasonable" responsible parent. Gloves off, for sure.

[Bluedaisy]

@demanda88, I'm sorry he said something like that, my dad doesn't have any of the conditions you listed but sometimes can be very insensitive. When someone asked him if he'd cry at my wedding giving me away he said "God no, I'm going to be paying him to take her. Thank god she's someone elses problem". He totally thought he was being funny but it really hurt.

[Bluedaisy]

ladysif, hold your ground girl!

[jcprn]

ladysif in the end you and your family trumps anything that's going on with their wedding. Sorry, not sorry. I remeber your original post and they are asking too much. And now to try to bully you into it with all 3 of them after they already know how you feel? Hell no. Don't budge.

[ladysif]

Thanks ladies. We will see how it goes. They've never had the pleasure of truly battling me so should be interesting. The attorney part of me is ready to go.

I'm with PP - stand your ground (sounds like you're set!) I wish we could stand behind you during the discussion. That would shut them up real quick, several pregnant woman with arms crossed. They're being unreasonable, not you!

Update - I succeeded on behalf of myself and baby. Phew. DS1 is up in the air, they pulled the "what if we want him in the wedding" card and though I totally called it that they'd pull that card and warned DH, he responded too favorably so I may lose that one. Not over yet, they have no clue the disaster of 2-year-old in a wedding. Nor the non-negotiable stipulations I will put in place for him to go.

Good for you on succeeding for you and baby! And hey ya never know maybe DS1 will come down with a cold or something when the time comes. Wink wink. Lol.

LOL. Having had DD in 3 weddings (age 3,4,&5) and DS in 2 weddings (age 2.5 and 3), kids are a crapshoot. DD thought the whole thing was glorious and perfect. DS tolerated it. My niece (2 at the time) was a flower girl with DS in his first wedding. He did great, she yelled "NO!" at the very start of the aisle and refused to go, and DS tried to drag her down the aisle. He was unsuccessful, lol.

4 is a much nicer, more predictable age.
