This is never normal - I'm evil

A big apology before I start - had to
Say it on here because otherwise a real person would get it.

I HATE EVERYONE!!!!!! Aargh seriously everyone is really irritating me. I sound so ungrateful but I'm so sick of 'when you due?' 'U look uncomfortable' ' not long now' etc etc i am going to scream. I know people are being nice etc but aargh I'm so annoyed - not that I want people to be horrible I just want a minutes peace. My phone is constantly going off with caring friends and family wanting to see how I am and whether baby is ok - but seriously they all seem to do it when I'm trying to relax and have some time to myself. Today I nearly threw my phone out of the f£&king window. I'm due to have a c section in 3 weeks - if one more person says 'ooh she's got plenty if time to turn' I'll do something I regret. I've been told now several times its highly likely she won't turn so just shut up and stop making out u know better than medical professionals!!!!

Sorry for the rant and now breathing!

I get it don't worry. I was vile last week. I don't like most of my friends at the moment therr is no real reason for it either.

sonlypuppyfat · 13/08/2013 22:38

I was an evil fucking nutter for 9 months how my DH didn't throw me out the house I don't know and I was fully aware of how vile I was but as soon as baby popped out I was all sweetness again

FraggleRock77 · 13/08/2013 22:39

Great rant. Get it all off your chest. It is really tough to constantly absorb other people's thoughts and opinions about pregnancy. Today for example i have been called Rotund and Chubby by so called caring work colleagues!! Xx

CocktailSausage · 13/08/2013 22:44

I'm 32 weeks pregnant and have managed to alienate my whole family. I don't want to talk or see anyone - I seem to have the rage - oh dear!

notmuchfun · 13/08/2013 22:45

the worst for me was people making the presumption that because I was pregnant, they could lay there hands on my im not a touchy feely person at best. so hormones and random people touching my stomach without warning was not a good mix.

HeffalumpTheFlump · 13/08/2013 22:57

I had a random tesco worker stop me outside the loos and touch my fucking belly yesterday... Wtaf?!? She asked all the usual questions: when are you due, oh are you sure, definitely just one in there? Then she said that I looked uncomfortable, touched my belly and asked me 'are you not happy about the baby'...?!?!? Yes I'm fucking happy about the baby, but she is head down, grinding on my cervix and I'm trying to do the weekly shop without her falling out of my fanny and this is the third time iv had to use the fucking toilet in less than an hour and I'm walking so slowly today all my food will have gone off by the time I get to the tills.

I was in tears by the time I got to the frozen section and nearly topped myself when I realised I had forgotten soured cream for the fajitas... Which is found right back at the beginning of the store.

You have all my sympathy and may rant to your hearts content, you have earnt it.

Buswanker · 13/08/2013 23:05

I could have written every word here myself.
I am now even imagining things people might say and getting annoyed. Like someone could say I need to lose weight and in my head I HATE them.
No one can do anything right, if they offer to help me I say they are being controlling if they dont I say I am all alone.

MrBlondesFries · 14/08/2013 06:06

Vent away OP, I'm sick of the "Oooh yo're so big!" Yes I'm fucking due on the weekend, it's called being 9 MONTHS PREGNANT or "you've definitely dropped (knowing face)" " er actually I haven't the baby's head is no engaged at it" - them (doubtful face) like the GP, MW and me have all got it Wong but you, random stranger, you have got it right.

Hang in there OPZ.

Queazy · 14/08/2013 06:49

I can really relate to all this. I didn't text a friend back within 2hrs so she text again (twice) to ask if I was in labour. I'm due in less than 2 weeks - already worried I'll go overdue and have to hear more of this. It'll all be worth it, but I just want to turn into a recluse for the next 3-4 weeks x

KittyKK · 14/08/2013 06:58

I'm only "3 mins" pregnant (4+4) so I'm new to this.... but reading this chain, I wonder how many pregnant women I've unwittingly annoyed in the past with my well-meant, pretending-to-be-interested questions ;)

Recently started ignoring the heavily pregnant status of 2 of the women in the office....averting eyes from the bellies and focusing only on "business business" talk!

Emilycee · 14/08/2013 07:29

Oh heck I feel really arsy already and only 6+5!

MIL was going on about me running - well I jog 3 times a week for 2-3 miles. Doc says its fine, the online advice say carry on if no issues etc. I mean ffs she had only just found out, I on the other hand have been reading everything and anything pregnancy related since we got the BFP, so I think I know what is safe for my body and my baby thank you! Wouldnt bother me usually but I wish she would just fuck off! Aaargh!

Sorry for hikacking your thread op its your rant - just sympathyse with you!!x

Ohcrapwhathaveidone · 14/08/2013 07:36

I'm with you all, if I have to hear 'are you sure there is just one in there?' Or 'ooh your MUCH bigger than last time aren't you?' From work colleagues I may just punch one of them in the face

Im really not normally a grumpy/moody person but It's just so bloody constant from the minute I walk in until I walk out the door.

Feel like writing it all down and just handing over my 'information leaflet'
to every bloody nosy well meaning person I see!!

Something like this...

Yes I'm pregnant
Yes I'm huge
No there really is only one in there
I have 6 long weeks to go
Yes I know what I'm having- 'a baby'
Yes I'm uncomfortable in this heat
Now kindly f**k off

Emilycee · 14/08/2013 08:09

love the idea of handouts! I am apprehensive about people wanting to touch the bump later down the line - might have to get a 'dont touch the bump' t-shirt! or just slap their hands away with a glare! ha ha!

Tiredemma · 14/08/2013 08:10

Im awful too.

I snapped at a young bloke on the train yesterday who actually offered me his seat.

Im 35 weeks and seem to have lost any compassion for the rest of mankind.

Tiredemma · 14/08/2013 08:12

and I snapped at a police officer who had to put up a road block so that the air ambulance could safely get a child into children's hospital.

DP said I will go to hell for that one.

mumingball · 14/08/2013 08:30

... and how big your belly is, and how small your belly is and how round/high/low your belly is and are you delivering right now? and slapping (not just touching, slapping!!!) my belly, and are you going for epidural? (pardon? what was your name again?)

I just smile, say "oh dear, yes" and leave as quickly as possible. It looks like bellies are public areas and pregnancies open topics for everyone to say something!

Stropzilla · 14/08/2013 08:40

I was the Bitch Queen from Hell while pregnant. Being touched may have made me very stabby. One poor random man had the misfortune to look at me and comment Oh, you're pregnant. Since there was no reason at all for the comment I was extremely sarcastic and he walked away very quickly. And all the comments like so you've not had it then. .. you're so big is there really only one in there.... bet you can't wait. ... Yes harmless I know but really so inane.

chattychattyboomba · 14/08/2013 08:44

OP, I can relate! And you are not evil just fed up.. but a word of warning! It doesn't get easier when baby arrives! Every Tom, Dick and Harry has an opinion on your baby! You've been warned!

poppygolucky · 14/08/2013 08:44

Feeling exactly the same.

34+5 here, and had enough. I hate everyone. I hate heartburn. I hate restless legs and insomnia. I hate the fact I am never comfortable. I hate the fact my two year old DD was up at 5:45 this morning. I hate the Peppa Pig DVD I have resorted to putting on so she will leave me alone for 5 minutes.

Arrrggghhhh. Time goes backwards when you get to this stage, I swear.

poppygolucky · 14/08/2013 08:45

Oh and if anyone says 'nearly there!' to me again, I may punch them in the face.

Charlottehere · 14/08/2013 08:46

I fully admit to being a she devil when pregnant....my dh is a saint!!

pumpkinsweetie · 14/08/2013 08:50

I remember the 'rage' all to well with all of my dc and what made it worse is that i was late with all 4 of them.
I have had all the above said to me and it used to drive me round the bend

I'm currently 19.4 weeks pregnant and plan on completely ignoring people this time round

Emilycee · 14/08/2013 12:41

Rage at work! I wish my boss would fuck off! I feel very nauseous and tired but its too early to tell work. I wish I could go and hide in a corner somewhere until I feel better - hiding in the toilet for 5 mins for a bit of peace! Its terrible but I couldnt give a shit about work atm!

WhenSheWasBadSheWasHopeful · 14/08/2013 15:48

Me too, I'm in a rage and I just don't give a rats ass about anyone at the moment.

Apparently I look like I'm about to pop, I bloody wish, still got 10 weeks to go and that's if I don't go overdue
