She HATES amoxicillin, I practically have to shower after each dose.</p> <p>I had to come face to face with my ex husband at my son's pediatrician office, he dropped out of his life 4 years ago. That was hard to do and hard to play nice.</p> <p>My Husband is coming home for 3 days tomorrow before he deploys for a year, he has a date day planned for Friday and our baby sitter cancelled today and our back up is out of town.</p> <p>My Mom is stressing so bad about the sale of their home. Can't even talk to her.</p> <p>My cat likes to chew the nipples off all the babies bottles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-we-have-a-complaining-thread/page/2#post-1763466 Wed, 16 Jul 2014 22:39:41 +0000 winter_wonder 1763466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>So many friends are making pregnancy announcements and I'm so jealous :( We've been TTC over a year and a half. </p> <p>One of my friends just had her baby, is bf, and has lost all of her baby weight (and then some). I'm growing out of my pants as we speak and not pregnant. </p> <p>I wish my friends with kids would understand that I want my own baby! So many of them think it will help to spend time with THEIR baby as we're waiting. I know they're trying to be sweet by giving me baby time...but IT JUST MAKES IT SO MUCH WORSE. </p> <p>If one more person asks me when we're having kids, I may literally b**** slap them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-we-have-a-complaining-thread/page/2#post-1763447 Wed, 16 Jul 2014 22:14:56 +0000 meganmp 1763447@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@twoofeverything: oh my Lord, YES.

I try to keep a brave face IRL and not talk about it much so it was so wonderful to get it out and hear caring responses! Seems like we are all going through something, there's nowhere to go but up from here for all of us! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-we-have-a-complaining-thread/page/2#post-1763393 Wed, 16 Jul 2014 21:27:51 +0000 twoofeverything 1763393@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It's tooooooo hooooooooot. Seattle just can't handle 15+ days of 80+ degrees., because no one here has effing a/c<br /> DD is sick. Not horrible, but enough that she can't sleep. (Oh did I mention her room is 82 degrees right now?!)<br /> I need to drop 40lbs.

Apparently my quick wasn't quick enough. When I returned my daughter was sitting there clicking away thinking she had discovered the next best thing to sliced bread. "Look Mom, nobody can outbid you, it's called Buy It Now!" To my horror in the short time it took me to go to the washroom she had racked up a bill of over $400. I paid everyone because it wouldn't be right not to. She even ordered shoes from Australia! (We're in Canada.) I only had myself to blame so remember this one the next time you think you can leave your eBay open and run to the washroom :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-we-have-a-complaining-thread/page/2#post-1763250 Wed, 16 Jul 2014 19:49:01 +0000 SandraDee 1763250@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My rant has to do with young male drivers who keep hitting me! Can't their parents teach them to respect others, life, and the rules of the road? Especially when the motor vehicle accident in which I had my daughter with me and now she is going to potentially require lifelong treatment because of it! She was healthy before and now this sentence :( I didn't drive like an idiot when I young. I don't get it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-we-have-a-complaining-thread/page/2#post-1763236 Wed, 16 Jul 2014 19:40:56 +0000 heartonastring 1763236@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Work is insane right now - came back into the office at 7:30 tonight to get some more work done. Hopefully I can get out of here by 10 and actually put a bit of a dent in my emails.</p> <p>DH's work is also crazy at the moment. So we're both constantly tired and stressed and sometimes that makes it hard to be nice to one another :sad: </p> <p>I have no idea if I want another baby or if I want to be one and done. And even though we wouldn't TTC for at least 15 months from now, I still can't help but think about it constantly. I change my mind multiple times a day and that's not an exaggeration. I HATE not knowing what the plan is! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-we-have-a-complaining-thread/page/2#post-1763197 Wed, 16 Jul 2014 19:16:23 +0000 Sofiel 1763197@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I need this today. It's been a crappy week and feels good to vent!</p> <p>- the heat is killing me. Normally I like it but it's draining me and I hate feeling gross and sticky all the time.<br /> - DS is sprouting teeth and is SO CRANKY. ALL.DAY.LONG. I need a break.<br /> - DH won't give me a break but yet he gets one (scratch that, has had several lately!!!!!). I'm so irritated it's not even funny (and he wonders why!!). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-we-have-a-complaining-thread/page/2#post-1763192 Wed, 16 Jul 2014 19:13:05 +0000 immabeetoo 1763192@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@78h2o: I'm really sorry but your bit about them running thorough the poop made me LOL!</p> <p>@mrs. bird: thanks lady!

WHAT?!?! how did i miss that?!?! OMG! congratulations!! good luck with your move </p> <p>@erinpye: OMG, that's awful! i hope your eye feels better soon!</p> <p>@travellingbee: i'm so sorry for you losses &lt;3</p> <p>@Rocker2014: i've heard gallbladder pain is terrible, i'm so sorry</p> <p>@78h2o: &lt;3 &lt;3 &lt;3 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-we-have-a-complaining-thread/page/2#post-1763080 Wed, 16 Jul 2014 17:36:50 +0000 ZombieBullfrogHoller 1763080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rocker2014: That is rough!

I ended up gaining about 50, with a lot of it being water weight, even though I didn't have pre-eclamsia or anything. If it makes you feel any better, I lost all but 10 lbs or so within the first month or two, and eventually got it all off. Every pregnancy is different. I am sure you are beautiful, though I know the weight gain is uncomfortable.</p> <p>@Rocker2014: That sounds so miserable, I'm sorry. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-we-have-a-complaining-thread/page/2#post-1763076 Wed, 16 Jul 2014 17:32:40 +0000 ZombieBullfrogHoller 1763076@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Fantastic!</p> <p>We're so broke it isn't funny. I don't have any money until payday Friday and we haven't been able to pay any bills this month. </p> <p>I didn't have any gas in my car so I had to walk to my retail job today. Which isn't a huge deal because I live fairly close, but it's the point that I feel like a crappy mother because we're just not doing well financially.</p> <p>I interviewed for a job that pay over double what I'm making at my part-time retail gig but I have to wait until the 21st to hear about it. And it's killllllling me. I WANT this job like AAAAH.</p> <p>I really want this job experience and pay, but it's one hour commute and in the city and I am such a country bumpkin that 2-our/day commute and being in the city where all we hear here in "the sticks" is about murder and gun crime makes me ultra nervous.</p> <p>I also have another job that pays more than retail gig that involves working with kids with behavioral problems and that has it's own stresses plus the company that I work from is just so inept. </p> <p>I work so much that I feel like I'm missing time with LO just to be broke and on top of it my house is a disaster. Like not just clutter but like EW GROSS and I'm going nuts over it.</p> <p>I know next month will be better once we can catch up on things, hopefully, but I feel like I'm drowning. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-we-have-a-complaining-thread/page/2#post-1763075 Wed, 16 Jul 2014 17:31:13 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 1763075@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am super bloated from AF, I feel like a whale. Plus I've been on weight watchers for two months and I have lost ONE pound. Blahhhh. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-we-have-a-complaining-thread/page/2#post-1763069 Wed, 16 Jul 2014 17:27:39 +0000 gingerbebe 1763069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sandy: Ugh, that's terrible, I'm sorry.</p> <p>@Rocker2014: I had something that I think was a gallbladder attack yesterday and all I can say is OMG you are such a trooper if you have been dealing with this pain all along.

The comment about the cat throwing up totally reminded me of my day Monday... it took me an extra hour to get J ready for daycare because she was fighting me on everything. When I almost had her dressed, she ripped off her diaper and pooped on the floor. Then she and the dog ran through it. Ahhhh! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-we-have-a-complaining-thread/page/2#post-1763000 Wed, 16 Jul 2014 16:36:13 +0000 sandy 1763000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@gingerbebe: I can do most of my credits online but there is a minimum number of credits where I have to attend a "live" class. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-we-have-a-complaining-thread/page/2#post-1762952 Wed, 16 Jul 2014 16:16:34 +0000 78h2o 1762952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@grizz: my drivers license has never been the truth! :) </p> <p>I have a miserable cold, I'm sucking at work, my LO is also sick and her behavior is a disaster. Ever single thing is a fight with her...diaper change...WWIII...getting dressed....wrestling match....feeding her....all food on the floor. Screaming for hours in the night. Sigh. And of course my husband is still super sick and unable to help, as it's been for the last 2 years. I actually probably spend more tome taking care of him than LO. Plus, one of his current meds has a lot of dietary restrictions and I'm still struggling to find things he can eat. Praying he can keep his job and that our marriage can survive this.</p> <p>I know all of this will pass, but I so wish for once someone could take are of me!</p> <p>Big hugs to everyone else having a rough time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/can-we-have-a-complaining-thread/page/2#post-1762942 Wed, 16 Jul 2014 16:06:55 +0000 Cherrybee 1762942@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My new team are driving me to distraction. Its like managing five year olds! Plus my house is a tip because Im working, like, proper full time with a decent commute (I WAH three days a week before) and Im not in a good routine yet. Oh and its E's birthday in a week and Im so not prepared for her party!! Eek. </p>
