I want to tell everything to FUCK OFF AND LEAVE ME ALONE

Currently 30 weeks pregnant. Almost 2 year old son. Building work being done on our house.

I'm so tired. Today I took DS to our friend's for the day. He cried on the drive there because we now have to walk to our car because of the builder so he thought he was going for a walk and was then hugely pissed off about being put in the car. On the way back he kept crying at me for 'nimes' which I'm guessing is 'rhyme' but apparently none of the nursery rhymes I knew was the right one.

He now for some reason wont go to sleep and screams bloody murder if i leave the room.

I tried to book a swim at my gym for tomorrow but they close the pool at 5 now, making my membership a complete waste of money.

I just want a break. I want everyone and everything to fuck off.

Oh love. What a bloody nightmare. Why do all these things happen on the one day? On a positive note, your update made me spit out my tea laughing!

OhToBeASeahorse · 05/08/2020 19:43

Thanks.
I know. I just feel so defeated I want to cry.

Have a look for the thread I started a few days ago “to think sometimes parenting is a joke”

Your people are there.

Keeva2017 · 05/08/2020 19:46

And it wall make you laugh.

D4rwin · 05/08/2020 19:48

Brew I hope tomorrow is better for you. YANBU. The whole world can do one is my theme of today too.

newnamesameold · 05/08/2020 19:56

Oh my Christ you are doing remarkably! I've wanted everyone and everything to fuck off for weeks and I'm not pregnant!!!

OhToBeASeahorse · 05/08/2020 19:57

Thanks everyone. @Keeva2017 thanks, I found that thread Smile

I’ve had one of those days too. Tomorrow is a new day

OhToBeASeahorse · 05/08/2020 20:00

I just feel like I cant seem to catch a break at all. If covid wasnt happening this would be so much easier. If DS was older we could go out all day without worrying about a nap which would be so much easier. If he was small I could sit in the living room with him in a bouncer. If I wasnt pregnant I could cope with getting a kicking toddler in a car seat. If the builders weren't here I could be more comfortable at home.

Sorry. Pity party ends here.

You have my sympathy. It must be in the air today, some days there is no cheering them up when they've decided they want to be miserable.
The situation at the moment makes life harder you must be exhausted.

OhToBeASeahorse · 05/08/2020 20:17

Thank you. I've just read the weather forecast and cried at 34 degrees on friday. Fuck. My. Life.

Me too! 33 weeks. 5 year old crying every time she doesn't get her own way. Despite hours of playing and entertaining her, didn't want to let me and her dad have half an hour of watching TV, made me feel guilty and shitty. Luckily, he did her dinner while I had a nap, though puppy came and woke me up. Feel moderately more able to cope now. It's so much about the sleep OP.

OhToBeASeahorse · 05/08/2020 20:20

Maybe they play up as we get bigger?!?!

It will pass eventually and your doing a blinding job.

Sending hugs because I think feeling like it all gets too much is normal.

Kaiserin · 05/08/2020 20:24

We all have those days... Have a socially distanced hug! hugs
And a virtual cuppa Brew

When I feel like that, I sing this song:

if you're angry and you know it, stomp your feet (stomp, stomp)...

I'm sure you know the tune Wink
Your toddler may want to join!

Usually I go through frown your brows, gnash your teeth, scream "yeee-argh!", and by that stage it quickly becomes "if you tired and you know it, have a nap (snooze, snooze)"... Very therapeutic Grin

WarmSausageTea · 05/08/2020 20:25

YANBU. I could cheerfully tell anyone and everyone to fuck right off and then fuck off some more.

Other than going out for a walk or to the shop, I have not had one single minute on my own since mid-March. To say I am sick of everyone is a massive understatement.

Hope tomorrow is a better day for everyone. Gin

UnitedRoad · 05/08/2020 20:32

YANBU. I hate to tell you this but it doesn’t get easier.

Ours were easy babies and great children, but the teen years are awful. Eldest is fine but youngest is 19 now, and currently the worst person I’ve ever met.

BlackSwan · 05/08/2020 20:35

But which nimes did you try?
you already told me to fuck off so how much worse can it get?

You have my sympathies. I'm due tomorrow, midwife refused to give me a sweep today, I'm hot and fed up and everything is shit. Everytime I've been in the front garden today a neighbour has cheerfully joked "not had the baby yet then?" Look at the fucking size of me, do I look like I've had the baby? Does the lack of baby not kinda indicate I haven't had him yet? Wankers.

Fisharefriendstoo · 05/08/2020 20:42

Are you me?
I’m currently heavily pregnant, at home with my two year old & getting building works done on my house (I’m not staying there) which probably won’t be completed or liveable until after I have baby no 2. 🙄 he has also done nothing but whine and I’m just too pregnant to be fun when I’m living out of bags. I haven’t been alone since March and I need some peace.

stayathomer · 05/08/2020 20:44

No way you will! I'd do the stop thing above and also agree yanbu. Hugs OP
