pregnancy excuses
How many pregnancy excuses are there out there? Most of it is food related. But it drives me crazy to hear a woman use their pregnancy as an excuse for things. I am pregnant with baby number 2 and due next month. I never with either pregnancy ever said i couldnt do something bc i was pregnant unless it could harm the baby in some way like lifting heavy stuff or going snow boarding or something like that. I still get up every morning at 5 and make breakfast and lunches, work all day, come home clean and cook, and still give my husband his lovin. Now some women have to be put on bed rest so they by no means need to do that but come on people dont use it as an excuse to be lazy or over eat. And making your man go outin the middle of the night for some craving is just insane have some self control. Sorry we all gotta rant simetimes lol
My mother in law treats me like I live in a bubble. Don't do this don't do that! I'm pregnant not handicap! It's annoying
I think the only thing Ive used my pregnancy as an excuse is my attitude changes lol. Like if I blow up over something that normally Id be like "Eh whatever..." lol. The only problems I have is like changing my kids diapers or pull ups. There are times that the way the baby is positioned I just cant get down that low due to the pain. So I ask for help. Otherwise Im usually on the ball.
I work with a girl who is just a few weeks ahead of me and she always uses her pregnancy as an excuse to be lazy and have everyone do her job for her. I'm waiting until 12 weeks to tell my coworkers im pregnant but it's just really annoying to see someone use it as an excuse to be lazy when she's perfectly capable of doing the job because hello I'm doing it and not complaining . Ugh!
I do pull the Im pregnant card at my job because they are under the impression i can go 10 hours without eating.
I'm 29+2 and still Go to school full time, work full time, cook dinner, and my husband and i both clean the house just because he doesn't want me using the chemicals. I still get down and scrub the floors if the dogs make a mess, i still do our laundry, and HE normally asked ME to Go to the store in the middle of the night for Ice cream lol I'm pregnant, not cripple
The only thing I do feel that makes me slack us my fatigue. Not to say I do t do my duties but I most deff take plenty of naps
Lol i have to wear a lab coat for my work and i wear a small. Unfortunately im growing out of it quickly but only my tummy n breasts. I told my boss i would just leave it open and this was his response (hes full of himself too lol) : i understand because your body is going threw changes and in your current condition your hormones will change you, but in the rules its says you need to have your lab coat buttoned up....i very nicely looked at him and said im pregnant, i dont need a sex talk thank you. Lol his face was priceless. Even my parents were never that awkard when they gave me a sex talk when i was like 10 lol
My friend is in her second trimester and uses her pregnancy as an excuse to not do anything. She won't cook, clean, do laundry or anything. She went from working full time to maybe 2 days a week. She has a perfectly healthy pregnancy and isn't on any restrictions. I know it's getting on her bf's nerves. I feel sorry for the poor guy.
My mom is constantly telling me i cant do this or that in my condition. My CONDITION!? im freakin pregnant!
Lol yea i tell people im pregnant not disabled k can still do things. The only thing i will not do is lift heavy things im scared ill harm the baby
Bleh. I'm tired of people telling me what I CAN'T do. I work for a living, I have to move some heavy stuff for my job unless you're gonna do it for me and I still get paid shut up lol
