Who else just wants to vent, whine, and complain??

[veveland]

Okay ladies, I know that we're all hormonal and temperamental right now. So I though it might be good to have a "vent" thread. No judgement here. Just a place to complain, whine, or whatever you feel like doing. :) In some weird ways, it keeps me from snapping at my family if I can vent my feelings on here! And know that you ladies understand...

So my vent for the morning...DH is a mouth breather at night. And every time I rolled towards his side of the bed, he flipped too and breathed in my face and made me gag. All night long. UGH!

[dustileigh]

An old friend of mine is driving me nuts by acting like everything is a competition. She has to be "greener" than me, has to be more "home-made" than me, her kids have to be more creative than mine (theyre 4 and 2- we're lucky they arent finger painting with their poop), her boyfriend is better than my husband (btw- her alcoholic bf buying her a kindle does not trump my amazing DH and his commitment to our family- UGH), and her mother is a vax pushing witch that is going to be at my friend's little boy's bday party on Saturday and I'm seriously thinking about inventing some reason why I can only go and drop off the gifts then leave so that I don't have to listen to her berate me for not getting my kids a flu shot.

Okay, end rant here. I feel better now :)

[Lovinmama3]

I'll in!

I'm annoyed that I've asked DH to carry the laundry basket full of clothes downstairs to the laundry room so I can do laundry THREE times now and it's still sitting upstairs. :rolleyes:

We cleaned up our office/sewing area this weekend while my parents were visiting and watching our 1yo and DH's idea of cleaning his stuff up is moving it into a pile in our bedroom! I didn't realize he was doing that until we were done and I went to lay down on our bed and saw it there on the floor. :( It's not 2 days later and it's still there...

[momtomy3]

I am sick and tired of a girl at work - I know that's mean, but geez. Every time we start talking she'll say something about "what will you do if you go to the US and you're not pregnant?" Keeps reminding me that it happens, there are false positives, etc. She knows someone that knows someone that had a cousin who wasn't really pregnant. Constantly asking how I know I'm pregnant, etc.

Dude, 1st off - I've had two pregnancies. I kind of know what it feels like. 2nd - if I go to the ultrasound and God forbid something had happened or whatever, I don't want to hear her.

Seriously, I try to be nice but this has happened everyday I'm there (I work 3 days a week) since I told her I was pregnant.

She also had the nerve to tell the other Ashley that is also pregnant (she is exactly 8 weeks further than I) that she is getting fat. It's hard to keep myself in check around her.

[gringuitica]

I'll play. I'm so tired of being sensitive to smells. If I'm not currently craving a food, chance are it'll make me sick. To make this worse, my dad has been staying with us for the past three weeks, and he doesn't seem to grasp how sensitive I am. He made FISH -- FISH!!!! -- the other night, and even though I was locked in my bedroom, the smells wafted up and started a grand puking session. I really thought I was going to lose it with him. Then he made a tuna sandwich the next day, at which point I finally did lose it and put a seafood ban on the entire house. But I am so, so tired of feeling this way. Even foods that I eat, if they don't appeal to me at the exact moment that someone else is eating them, they're enough to at least send me out of the room (self-imposed solitude is no fun) or worse, make me throw up.

I also want to find a cage and lock up one of my cats. We're in the process of packing up to move at the end of the month (great timing), and he is getting into everything. Every box needs to be inspected, every bag clawed to death. There is not a moment in the day when he's not making noise, making trouble and in general torturing me with his curiosity. He's always been like this -- he was malnourished and abandoned before I adopted him, and he therefore has brain damage/is very slow, and doesn't have the capacity to learn. We can't stop him from this behavior, no matter what we do, and if we lock him in a room, he screams in the most disgusting and infuriating ways. As I said, he has no capacity to learn, so there's no way to teach him new habits. Normally, I have the patience to deal, but now it's driving me batty. My voice is going hoarse from yelling at him to quit!

I also hate being hormonal. I don't like wanting to tear people's heads off. I don't like crying when we run out of food. I don't like being intolerant. And I really hate the fact that I'm irritable enough to want to just vent, whine and complain! I'm usually easy-going, and it's a difficult adjustment to not feel that way right now.

[Silver)O(Moon]

I'm in! I need to vent! Yesterday my nearly 15 yr old DS flooded my bathroom which his is not supposed to be using in the first place (heaven forbid that I insist on one toilet seat in the house that is clean enough to sit on without inspection first!!!!) and it overflowed he "forgot" how to stop the toilet from overflowing so he just let it run all over until there is an inch of stinky water all over my floor, onto DS's bath toys and a pile of laundry. :yuck: And then he got mad that I got mad so he call me a bad word that begins with a a B and wouldn't help me clean it up. So there I am, sick and preggo, mopping up toilet water. Yes he heard choice words from me and yes he got his little defiant butt grounded for several hours and had to do many many chores to earn his right to watch the superbowl later. He has Aspergers so we've been taught to keep his consequences short and sweet and to the point to help him "get it" but man, there are times I just think, if *I* had done that and said that to my mom, I'd have been grounded for a week and would be lucky to be alive frankly. Sometimes I really really hate how easy and forgiving and understanding I have to be of my Aspies. I don't know where the line is between understanding and empathy and enabling them to continue what feels like getting away with really inappropriate behavior. There is no way to know if its an issue of them really not understanding what to do in a given situation, or a more willful choice of not wanting to do what is expected. So frustrating, and when I am sick and tired 24/7 I just don't have the patience to figure it out.

[momtomy3]

Ugh, I am so horrible. :/ We just recently (2 weeks ago) moved into the same neighborhood as my stepchildren. Well, Meghan gets out of school at 245 and is off the bus at 3. She comes over everyday that I'm here (usually Monday and Friday), and that's fine. But we make plans for that first. We did NOT plan on her coming today because I've felt so bad.

I was laying down, both little ones are asleep and *RING RING RING* goes the doorbell. I kinda was not very nice. She ended up going to her friends and I didn't try to stop her. Yes, say I'm horrible. I know - I feel it.

I called her dad (my DP) and asked where she was supposed to be going today and he didn't know because they never discussed it (it's her moms day). He called her mom and she said she was going to a friends.

This is just turning into one big cluster. I don't like that really nobody has any idea where she is going after school because she'll just randomly pop wherever she wants to. There needs to be a schedule.

I'm cranky that I got woken up, too. ;/

[Bam26]

I have hypermesis (really terrible, debilitating all day pregnancy sickness). First I tried every natural remedy - but none worked. So I have resorted to Rx meds. They help but are not a cure I have gone from vomiting 20x a day to 4 or 5x a day. I am just so sick of being sick!!!! I have 2 DDs and I hate the fact that I can't do stuff with them like usual also I had to quit college (I was in a tech program on campus). Ugh -- I'm soooo ready for the 2nd trimester!!

[veveland]

Okay, so here I go again. Sorry, my DH is getting the brunt of my frustration today.

DH comes home early from work (because of snow? NO. Because his "stomach doesn't feel good.). Fine. Except that he has told me in no uncertain terms that he will be laying on the couch, doing nothing (and hoping for a snow day tomorrow so he can do the same) and the kids are mine to deal with tonight. Seriously?? I've felt like complete crap for weeks now...barely able to get up some mornings, and struggling to take care of the kids, do laundry, and cook dinner. And he feels bad for two hours so that warrants me having to do everything?? UGH. Okay, I hate that he feels bad and I do want him to rest. But it's like I'm expected to suck it up no matter how I feel because "I'm the mom." I really want to lay in my bed, watch tv, and have someone deliver cold Sprite and crakers to me. :( Okay, end rant.

[newbiemama]

i'm sick of DH complaing about my moods. yes, sometimes i snap at him for no reason. yes, sometimes i yell. but i CAN'T CONTROL it!!! i just get really angry or irritated suddnely, then 2 min later it's gone! just let me feel my feelings!!

[momtomy3]

Are we allowed to respond to people's rants in here or this just for getting it out?

[Emma]

I just want my DH home!! I'm sick of living separate from him. I just want this move to be over so we're not in limbo anymore.

I'm sick of my 4 yr old acting like she's 14. Seriously...the attitude is just AWFUL! She will get in my face and yell at me for something like throwing a piece of paper away that she didn't think should be thrown away. If I discipline her, I'm being mean. She says all sorts of lies to me - that I said I don't love her, like her, want her, want to get rid of her, want to throw her out the window, etc...I do NOT know where this is coming from! I'm sure it relates to DH separation. He wasn't even home from Iraq for a yr when he left again (move related).

I haven't given the baby a bath in 3 wks b/c it's a battle I don't want to fight. Girl has some lungs on her and when she screams, she does it 110%. Bathtime involves water everywhere - me, floor, counter (bathe her in the kitchen sink). She will fight me, stand up, arch her back, and do everything possible to get the heck of out of dodge. At least she doesn't stink.

[BottomOfMyHearts]

I am so sick of being sick. I was hoping that by 10 weeks (today) that I would start to feel better but I feel the worst YET. I'm also on RX meds to help but it doesnt stop me from gagging and retching at every single smell in my house. =( Sigh.

I just want to feel better!

[Lovinmama3]

Feel free to respond is my answer. :goodvibes:

[veveland]

I say it's okay to respond, but only in a positive way. I don't want anyone to feel criticized for just venting. :goodvibes:

I HATE when my DP gets sick. He acts like it is the end of the world. I feel like I'm being told I deserve to feel bad and still do everything because I was the one that chose to get pregnant. He's never said that, but I feel it.

Hope you feel better soon, mama. Hope your DH starts being nicer!

[momtomy3]

Oh my goodness, I thought we were the only ones! My DD was the PERFECT child up until recently. Seriously, perfect. Well, now it's nothing but attitude. She rolls her eyes! If I rolled my eyes at my mom, I would have gotten slapped. I parent differently, but I have NO idea what to do. I feel like I've lost control. She stomps, slams doors, rolls eyes, yells. She has begun SLAPPING me. Ours has really started since she found out about the baby (which she is HAPPY about, though).

I know that doesn't help, but know you're not alone. If you find anything that works, please let me know.

[Arabesque]

I'm sick. I have a cold from he** and I've been off work for two days now. It totally sucks, because a co-worker came in sick on Monday and I knew I was going to get it. Since I can't take anything other than Tylenol I've been pretty miserable. But, on the bright side, at least my morning sickness is holding off for the most part.

[AndreaJP]

Okay, I'm totally in.

I am dissapointed. That is the only way to describe it. When I told DH he didn't understand what I meant, but I am downright dissapointed. I swore I would never have another baby becasue my ms with DD was so severe. I was adament! Until about October when I got baby fever!!! :giggle: I thought "I can do it again" but in the back of my mind I was hoping and wishing like crazy that I would get away with not being sick this time around. It is better than last time, but I am dissapointed. I HATE wathcing other ppl enjoy eating, I hate that the smell of my DDs breath makes me gag, I hate that I can't open the fridge without gagging, I hate that I can't feed the dogs, I'm sick of eating the same thing every day, I LVOE food and I love eating and I'm so annoyed that I can't!!

okay there!

I really am happy to be pregnant, and so excited to meet this little soul, but I wish I could have been one of the lucky ppl that don't get sick.

I hate even saying this all becasue I feel ungrateful but I had to get it off my chest, to some mamas that will hopefully understand.

[julasd]

I'm glad I'm not the only one thats been so sick.These twins are kicking my butt!Everyone keeps asking if we're excited,yes excited and thankful but at the same time it's hard to get too jazzed up when my head is in a garbage can vomiting most days.I spent my son's b-day miserable watching others enjoy pizza and cake.I ate saltines.I'm hoping this only lasts through the first trimester.

[Tripletmomtx]

So tired of going from feeling ok to sick over and over again. Wishing I could eat things that don't begin with cheese. Ugh morning sickness is the pitts...........ugh :-(

[Ten]

I am sick and tired of a girl at work - I know that's mean, but geez. Every time we start talking she'll say something about "what will you do if you go to the US and you're not pregnant?"

She also had the nerve to tell the other Ashley that is also pregnant (she is exactly 8 weeks further than I) that she is getting fat. It's hard to keep myself in check around her.

OMG - What on EARTH makes people think this kind of behavior is okay?! My mom's been a little like this, though not as bad. She refuses to acknowledge my 3 m/c - instead prefers to think I had just convinced myself was pregnant and was wrong. I swear, if she asks one more time if my MW verified the pregnancy I am going to SCREAM! (Because taking eight tests of my own - including a digi - is obviously not as accurate as a tech with a pee stick... and I'm just walking around sick for weeks because it's fun....)

I hope your supervisor or someone gives her a talking to. Or that she falls out a 10th-floor window. (Which might be mean... but the world really is better off without some people, IMHO.)


My vent: I want to throttle my boss. She "had" to come in late on Wednesday because her tummy was kind of icky and "had" to leave early for the same reason. (Cry me a river. I've felt like I've had food poisoning for WEEKS, and she has no clue.) Then she goes on and on to me about how she has a meeting with this lady (who has crawled so far up my boss' butt she's become one of those Russian nesting dolls) but we just found out she's pregnant and poor thing has been sick already and has health problems and so my boss probably should call off the meeting because she doesn't want to expose the sweet dear to any germs. (But apparently it's okay to breathe all over me.)

Boss thinks we're still struggling to conceive and claims she knows all about what that's like (after 6 mos. of TTC, 1 successful IVF, and no losses). Why on EARTH does she think I'd want to hear all about how this wretched woman is pregnant?!

[Arabesque]

Ten - eight tests and she doesn't believe you? I took two tests to confirm this pregnancy and my doctor didn't even bother testing me at her office to confirm. She said the tests she uses are the same as the ones we do, so unless I can't pee on a stick properly, then the reading is accurate.

anpolo - I know EXACTLY how you feel. The ms isn't as bad this time around, but I am at the "never let me get pregnant again" stage.

AFM - This cold is seriously kicking my butt. Now that the ms has set in, everytime I cough I have to struggle not to puke. And I cough all.the.time. I also had the misfortune of reading a section in my pregnancy book that said having a fever in the first few weeks of pregnancy is very dangerous for the baby. Great, now I'm going to be uber paranoid until my u/s, which hasn't even been booked yet because I don't get to see the doctor at the prenatal clinic until next month.

[veveland]

Okay, this is probably way TMI but I just need to complain.

I miss DTD. :blush: We didn't much at first because DH is a nervous nelly in that really early stage. Once we heard the heartbeat and knew everything was good, he was game, but my morning sickness was full force. And it's ALL.THE.TIME. There's not a time of day in weeks that I don't feel nauseated. We've tried a time or two, but the motion makes me gag. So it just isn't worth it. I feel guilty for saying "no" and I'm miserable because I want to have fun too! I hate being sick. I'm a whiny baby when I am and this is just plain ridiculous.

[newbiemama]

NEW COMPLAINT:

(well, really expansion from old complaint)

i'm getting frustrated with DH. don't get me wrong, he's been increadible this pregnancy and last pregnancy. very helpful, willing to take over duties, he's doing great taking care of DD when all i do is lay in bed.

but SERIOUSLY. i believe he thinks i'm lazy, that i'm milking my "morning sickness" and i'm just being lazy. :hairpull: he says he's sick of the house looking like a tornado ran though it and the dishes piling up, so he does all this housework, which again, is wonderful, but he does complain about it. supposively not in a mean way or directed at me, but it feels pretty "blameful." he says it's hard when he works full time and has to come home and do all this work "while i sit around." maybe he just doesn't understand that normally i do all that work myself, so he's not used to all the work??? or maybe he just thinks i'm lazy. i don't know, but it's getting REALLY frustrating and its really putting a strain on our relationship.

[veveland]

Okay...having a really hormonal, crap-tastic day, so I'm bringing back the vent thread. Brace yourselves...this will likely be long.

A little background-my grandparents had three kids (2 girls and a boy-my dad). Their two girls have always lived nearby and my dad moved away, married my mom (whom my grandparents hated) and they eventually had us. We've always had a decent relationship with them, but we just lived far away and didn't see them much. One of my aunts has an only child, a daughter, who is 11 months older than me. Shortly after she was born, her husband left her, then a year or so later he was diagnosed with brain cancer. He died a few years later. So in short my aunt was a wreck-my grandparents practically raised my cousin and they treat her differently than the rest of the grandkids.

We've always been a little left out, and sure it hurts sometimes (when we would get one gift at Christmas and she would get five, or when we got $50 for graduating high school and she got a new car of her choice, paid for by them). My parents tried to talk to them over the years, but it never changed anything. Even when my DS was born (I was 22-almost 23 at the time), they wouldn't come visit because my cousin couldn't get time off work and they didn't want to leave her at home alone. Seriously. When I called to tell them I was pregnant this time, the response I got was "That's great news. But we're not going to make a big deal about it because your cousin has had a really bad week."

Last fall, my cousin got married and while my kids had an incredibly nasty stomach bug, we were told that we WERE to be at the wedding (so we took them, vomiting with diarrhea, on a road trip). So now...I get "the" call I've been dreading. My cousin is pregnant with her first baby, and she's due just 6 weeks after me. :hairpull:

Now, while I find it annoying that they'll overlook my pregnancy, I really don't care about me anymore. But we had planned a trip next week to visit them so the kids could spend some time with them and I'm certain the whole trip will be about my cousin's pregnancy and upcoming baby. That's not fair to my kids, and I will go off if they can't come up with any other topics of conversation. Even more aggravating is how close our due dates are. My child will be overlooked by them for the rest of his/her life because they will be overshadowed by my cousin's child. There's no way around it, and they've as much as said her baby is more important. It just makes me so angry. I don't want to keep my kids from having a relationship with them, but it's just really aggravating. I am happy for her, and I wish her a healthy pregnancy and baby (although it wouldn't hurt my feelings if she got to have a few weeks of violent puking...). I just wish they would show our kids the same love and affection.

Thanks for reading if you got this far. :hugs:

[frenchyloveslarry]

Argh!!!!!! That completely sucks :( I totally know how the favorites thing goes and it is AWFUL. So sorry, mama.

[Tripletmomtx]

I am soooo tired of bleeding. I'm scared to do everything for fear of more bleeding......I want to be normal :-(
