My DH and I were leaving Safeway around 10:30 the other night and this guy started backing his truck up right toward us. He was way too close for comfort so I raised my arms and shouted "Hello!! Watch where you're going!!" Thank God he didn't try to fight us or something. I felt so stupid after ward. I'm 30 weeks pregnant and I swear it was my mother bear instinct trying to protect my body and my unborn baby. Even though it could have been way worse if the guy was crazy... Just try to take it as a lesson for next time. I like to think these things happen so we are smarter when we need to be. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-mad-at-myself-what-was-i-thinking#post-1928169 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 23:22:15 +0000 Mrs. High Heels 1928169@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Your mama bear came out that's what happened!! You were defending your family, and protecting your little one! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-mad-at-myself-what-was-i-thinking#post-1928142 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 22:39:51 +0000 mrs. wagon 1928142@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I can speak from personal experience that sometimes your temper gets the better of you and you make a tiny decision that you come to regret for so long after that. I felt nauseous for weeks after doing something similar, and I couldn't stop replaying it over and over in my head. I think that all you can do is move on, know that the moment is in the past, nothing bad happened and it will never happen again. Hugs sweetie. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-mad-at-myself-what-was-i-thinking#post-1928135 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 22:26:45 +0000 macintosh 1928135@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It sounds like you were going on instinct. Don't be too hard on yourself. Luckily nothing bad happened.</p> <p>I had a moment like that when DH freaked out while standing and almost pulled me down with him. I got so angry at him for putting both of us and our baby in harm's way. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-mad-at-myself-what-was-i-thinking#post-1928098 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 21:49:42 +0000 jedeve 1928098@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You kept your whole family safe. That little one inside of you was on the safest place he could be! Now the two of you need ice cream. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-mad-at-myself-what-was-i-thinking#post-1928048 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 21:09:54 +0000 simplyfelicity 1928048@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrs scrapbook: Couldn't agree with you more! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-mad-at-myself-what-was-i-thinking#post-1928028 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 20:49:21 +0000 mrs scrapbook 1928028@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You aren't an idiot. You were upset and defending your family. It sucks when you get into an argument, especially with neighbors and especially when they come over and prolong it. But don't beat yourself up, you left your son in a safe place in your home because you felt these people create an unsafe spot for him in your yard. Please don't let this not so nicely acting neighbor ruin your night or stress you out anymore than he already did, he isn't worth it. Hugs :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/so-mad-at-myself-what-was-i-thinking#post-1928012 Mon, 03 Nov 2014 20:38:01 +0000 ustechie 1928012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Feeling incredibly guilty. My husband got into an altercation with the neighbor (her dog ran into our yard and started growling at him). Well, as we're putting our son to bed, the neighbor's husband comes over to pick a fight with my husband. What is my reaction? I put my son in the pack n play and go tell him we have a son that could have been hurt and blah blah. I LEFT MY SON TO GO ARGUE! WTF was I thinking?? What if something happened to me? Over what, some stupid fight? I put my 35 wk pregnant self in harm's way because I'm a damn idiot. I'm just so pissed at myself I keep crying when I think about it. </p>
