Freak out fridays

Last pregnancy, there was an ingenius woman on here who put a thread up called ' moody mondays '. Its purpose was for anyone to vent about what's angered them that week, or simply just say how things are going for them. Man, i miss that thread. So, as it's friday, same idea different day.

To the woman who's man had a dickie fit over not being able to get weed. I think you need to give serious thought as to whether you're gonna let this continue. You need stability now more than ever but i'm sorry - he's not stable! Add to that all the flirting and yelling at you...i'd be out of there!

Also really sorry about your accident. 34 wks is pretty good, though, if you have to deliver. Hope all goes well. Regarding the guy who's not been seen the past few weekends-he sounds ridiculous and like he has commitment issues.

Thank you for you prayers.  I still have 13 hours of monitoring left but the past few hours the contractions have slowed down some.  If it keep in this direction I should be able to go home late tomorrow.  I'm still at high risk for delivery for the next 7 days, but the first 24 hours is the highest risk of the placenta separating after trauma and needing to deliver.  So I continue watching and waiting, but thank you!

Yes I agree with all of you one stressful week! The begining of the week I catch this god awful cold and on top of that I puke and get this awful rash on my face, and then after still going to work I come home and lay down for alittle and wake up with a bad fever. My cold has mainly gone away except its moved to my chest and I'm coughing all the time, and my nose is still smuggle stuffy. On top of that I caught it from my bf and when he was sick I of course waited for him hand and foot. And did everything so he was comfortable and felt better. But yet once u get sick, I'm perfectly fine in his eyes and I'm just faking it. and the rash on my face is nothing even though I ha to go to the er about it cause benadryl wouldn't clear it up. And on top of that it seems our relationship is just going Down hill I find out that he FINALLY decides to stop lying to me and starts telling me the truth by starters saying he does.t really know what he wants and that our relationship will take a while to mature even though I'm mature about everything he's the one who can't settle down a.d flips balls over every little thing and he can't stop flirting.g and being all over the other girls at work. (We work together just in different areas), which in that topic I work 6 days a week lifting heavy boxes at FedEx, my limit is 35 ibs but sometimes the lazy people there won't do anything but look at the heavy boxes so I have to push, pull, or roll them to the belt. Stressful enough on me, but anyways other than him telling me that he decides the next day that everything will be fine between us and he will change because its not me that needs to mature, and what do you know 3 hours later he's right back to yelling at me. And tonight just because he couldn't find himself weed he had to take it out on me and act like it was my fault. Then apologize, then bit even five mins later he's right back to yelling and blaming me. So I get a shower, and get out to him sleeping on the couch and our bedroom torn apart and all our sheets and blankets on the floor so not only do I have to clean his mess in the kitchen but the living room and bedroom to. YAYY I love this >:,(

Ok so I'll bite. I'm so done with work/work drama.

1 my dh's job just forloughed him for this next week. (great thing to do right before Christmas. . Huh?)
2 he doesn't work all the week after Christmas due to inventory.
3 all this means practically only one paycheck coming in, mine, and I'm starting to pop and will soon need maternity clothes. Guess who won't get them until February maybe?

Then there's all the dramas at my job including a little princess who's mom is my boss. Today we were handing out Christmas presents to employees from our company and here I was running back and forth and she demanding I get this or that for her, as I was getting this or that for myself, she nearly the a hissy and couldn't get off her throne to get the stuff herself, and it's no secret at work I'm pregnant either. Anyway, I digress and after venting will be able to be friendly with her when I work with get again.

Yes to all of you, sorry for all of your bad days, and hope these guys shape up some, but if not, glad we have this forum to vent and get some shared understanding...nobody understands it like somebody who's been through it, so I'm glad you gals are out there. Socalledchaos, take care and please let us know what happens. I'll say a prayer as well for you and your baby.

Ugh I had a sucky week Saturday I had to go to the ER because my gallbladder is bad and I was in severe pain they gave me morphine and sent me home then Sunday my fever got up to 103 so my husband made me go back and I threw up all week until yesterday, I lost 7 lbs this week. My OB called me and they have set up a appointment with a specialist to have my gallbladder removed next month and I'm so nervous for my son.

Usually I don't vent, but iv had a Hell of a week. I'm 16 weeks pregnant, who I'm having bad morning sickness, constant pains, head aches and have a 20 month old. My parner has recently started just going to mates after work or not coming over at all. (We don't live together at the moment, he doesn't want to get a house yet, yet were about to have our second child !!!) This week iv seen him twice and one night he came over late about 9:00 and our son was already in bed. The other night I went to his house and he just sat watching tv nearly paying any attention to him and made me bath him feed him and do everything for him. Which I don't mind, but when iv been so sick all week I think would it hurt for him to just take some sort of responsibilty or even play with his son ?? His excuse is I'm tired iv worked all day. But he doesn't work weekends and the past 3 I haven't seen him. Before this he was really good its just these last few weeks. It's making me just want to leave him as I feel like I'm already in this alone.

Mines the same. I work 9 or 10 hours a day and its killing me. Then im in trouble for coming home and sitting down for 5 mins. Calls me lazy. Im on my feet walking all day and its so draining. He works outside in 35 degrees which I know is hard also but they just dont understand how we feel. Im 13 Weeks so im hoping to get some energy back soon. So at the moment im leaving all the house cleaning till my day off and yeah, doesnt take long to get messed again. Or I go into the kitchen and there are 6 cupboards open. Drives me nuts! But at the end of the day I love him, and wouldnt be able to do it without him. I think sometimes we have to just learn to love them the way we are. No matter how much they make us cry.

I should have been thankful I thought the worst of my Friday was getting woken up.  We went to get lunch today..I was driving and a old lady ran a stop sign and hit my car.  It's probably totaled.  I was brought to er by ambulance and most of me checked out fine, but now I have been moved to L&D because the accident has thrown me into labor.  They are gonna try to get it to stop and i'm hoping they can.  If not we will be having a baby at 34w1d.  I pray if that happens she will be ok. I don't feel good and it's gonna be a long night! :(

Oh I tell this client all the time, very bluntly, that the curling iron is killing and frying her hair. She just laughs and says 'I know but I have to do it!' ugh. Never ending cycle. I dread 2:00 on Fridays!

Some people can't be pleased! Personally i'd tell that client that heat damages hair and not to use a curling iron more than twice a week. Almond oil is also great for dry hair. Why your boss makes you sit there when your work is done is nothing short of inexplicable, i'd be annoyed too!

My freak out Friday is about a client I have every Friday. Old lady shampoo style. She drives me NUTS every time she's in! I literally have to walk away from her to keep myself from hitting her over the head with my blow-dryer! She's nice, but she has a comment about everything!! Her hair is too dry so she wants me to use moisturizing shampoo and conditioner. Then when I do, it didn't hold the curl, so use regular shampoo. So I do, then it's too dry. And she curls it with a curling iron every day.. I wonder why her hair is so dry and damaged! Ugh!!
Also, I hate having to be at work when I don't have clients. I'm commission only, so I should be able to leave when I'm finished with my clients since I don't get paid to sit here, but the boss makes me stay. So much I could be doing at home and and such, but Noooooooo... I have to SIT here twiddling my thumbs...

I agree!  men think they shouldn't have to do anything if they have a job.... mine gets a little better with each baby but if he says he knows how I feel one more time I might strangle him!!

I'm hoping since I make him go to all my appointments he will cut me some slack like realize that I'm not just using my morning sickness to get out of chores. Normally I would suck it up if I were just sick but I'm not sick I'm pregnant and my first pregnancy I pushed myself too much and ended up on bed rest. I tend to stress myself out. I try to be super mom 24/7 but when do we get breaks really? And why is it so hard to ask for one when we need it?!

Hello everyone,

Normally I would only go through and read all the threads but today I felt the need to say something.

I'm a stay at home mom with a 3yr old daughter my husband is military we are high school sweethearts for 6 years. I'm 21 and doing way better than most my age.
Anyways, since I take of the apartment, do all the shopping for food, and pay bills while he's at work. Some days my morning sickness really takes over and I will ask him for something simple like hey can you do dinner tonight while I relax or hey take the dog out. I feel like I'm asking him to pull off his arm. He makes comments like "sure I didn't just work all day"

Luckily my bf lives with me. But latley he has trouble finding steady work. He'll go 2 or 3 times a week with his friends to work like painting houses or just handyman jobs. But he hasn't been paid yet. So I am basically stuck paying all the bills and its stressful. To top it off he hasn't been helping around the house unless I beg him and fight with him. I mean if I'm working 45 hourse a week and he is working 10 hours a week... then he needs to clean the house right?? I feel like maybe because I'm not showing yet he feels like I'm not really pregnant and I don't need extra help yet.

I think you'll get used to it...the thing about us women is that we're strong enough to roll with the punches, much stronger than them I think except for in the physical sense.  I keep reminding myself of that, but it sounds like you've survived a lot already, you're just moving into the unknown and that's always scary.  Hang in there...and put a sign on your bedside table telling him to leave you alone (or else!) when you're asleep. :)

Lol!  Well this is my first pregnancy when the dad stayed around and I'm just not use to it.  I love him, but he irks me.  Pregnancy was hard alone and I do feel the pain cause I remember...but I just don't think anyway is easier anymore.  Some may think I'm weird but I'm also nervous about after the baby comes cause I'm so use to being alone and he gets needy.  :/
