In laws. You do not get to complain that you "never see him!" I am fairly certain that the roads go both ways, and you live 10 minutes away. Do not try and guilt me into packing up a bunch of shit and strapping him into a car seat just do you can see him at your leisure. I will laugh at you. Heartily.
I'm going to go with my MIL. She isn't the most extreme but she has her moments. She's really been bothering me lately by asking if M is in excruciating pain every time we talk to her. She is convinced that he is super fussy and always in pain. Nope, he's a baby and they cry. He's actually mostly happy! Stop looking for problems MIL!
Everyone who constantly says "I think she's pooping." No. She's not. She makes noises, that's what babies do. Trust me, you will hear it when she poops.

My TW is anyone tells me that my newborn is throwing a fit. I was going though cluster feeding hell and visiting family. I was feeding the baby for the 20th time because baby was crying to be fed. Someone said, "There's no way he is hungry again, he is just throwing a fit."
All the drivers on the roads driving like dumbass's. Don't cut me off then slam on the brakes. Don't stop to turn a corner, just freaking turn already. And to everyone else driving 10 mph UNDER the speed limit. Step on it already.
Hub's for telling me I was delusional thinking I had to get to the SSA before they opened because it gets packed quickly.
The SSA for having a small ass parking lot and being overly packed 15 minutes after opening and for not a single person leaving when I've been cruising around looking for a spot for over 30 minutes. Guess who's going back tomorrow after dropping kiddo off at daycare?
To anyone that has told me she looks "mad", excluding my family members that love her completely and fully enough to earn teasing rights. She's not mad, she's concentrating and learning. Maybe if she liked your stupid face, she would smile!

Work.
My husband works for the same department I do. Because of an event happening this weekend that has the potential for disruption/violence, his days off were changed for this week to ensure that he is working this weekend. So he has tomorrow/Thursday off instead of Friday/Saturday. Which means I had to cancel my plans this weekend since he won't be able to watch Liam. I had planned on getting my hair cut on Friday (its been two years) and running a 5K on Saturday (I'm part of a team, and I had been planning on this for months). I am so annoyed by this.
bibliothecary my ILs are the same. Complaining on fb and elsewhere that they never see baby bc we don't load up all of her belongings and bring her to their house. Uh, get yourselves in the car & drive here. Don't act like it's my fault that you're lazy!

This. My sister: "where's that baby?" "Bring that baby over!" "I need to squeeze Jack!" And constantly complains that after work she's too tired to do much. But dating every douche on Tinder, that's plastered all over FB! Love her, but her logic is severely lacking here.

My mil wins today! She's always saying how much mia is going to be "advanced" compared to my DS because I "stayed pregnant" two weeks longer this time. Makes me livid, like I had a choice! DS had developmental delays due to his prematurity and mia probably will too and who cares??? She can't stop comparing them and it's making me nuts.
My endo. Just call me back already! Also, grandma. I wanted to make chicken salad for lunch. I was draining the chicken when she came out and took over the part of the kitchen where all the silverware and bowls are. Oh, and she just used the last of my mayonnaise. Just great. She can go fuck right off all over herself. My kids and I are not miracle whip people. Eta: I'm hungry, my blood sugar is dropping, and I still have a headache from last night's high blood sugar. I just want to eat my low carb lunch and go about my day. That's all.
Nominating myself. Just realized the swing we're borrowing from a friend has been in the setting for older babies this whole time. I had a revelation and looked up the manual online and finally adjusted it to the proper position. MOTY right here!
My husband-dude don't get upset because I'm trying to teach you how to give our son a bottle (pace feeding). He should not finish 2 oz in 2 minutes.
Apparently, I have to be a bottle feeding expert in order to give advice. He literally said that I'm not an expert. Duh! I'm just trying to help.
We're working on this. DH is on board with the pacing aspect (yay!), but continued to give LO 5 oz bottles when feeding him even after I told him I thought it was too much. Luckily, the LC that did a consult for us last night recommended 3-4 oz. 4 oz. max. He doesn't always listen to me, but he'll listen to someone else that says it!

I have a friend who keeps asking when I'm brining N to see her. Um, no.
Pest control will be here at 2pm tomorrow, dh did his best to fight them. So right now we have no light in that bathroom, the light/vent has been sealed.

I get overly defensive on her behalf.
+1 to this. I thought I was just being a curmudgeon but it really pisses me off. Especially the 'oh, I think that's your poop face.' Gross.

I'm nominating my scale. I have crept back up to right around what I weighed the day before A was born, when I was admitted to the hospital. This is about 15 pounds more than I weighed at the start.
I have a meeting tonight. I was going to bring B. Now I'm panicking because one of the attendees posted this and I'm not sure if that means the child she's bringing is unvaccinated. WWYD? Bring him or make other arrangements?
Edit: TW for making me panic and extra TW if you don't believe in vaccines.
