Yup things are annoying me more than usual...
So last night MIL calls and talks to Danny. I ask him what she had to say and he tells me a few things... Then later while we're driving to our cloth diaper appt, I ask him again if she had anything else to say, he says "no not really, oh yeah I guess they're coming to visit Aug 15" - umm what? you didn't think that was important to mention before? I always have to pry him for any info. Usually I'm the one that talks to MIL and tells Danny what she says but when he talks to her I have to ask and ask before I get any kind of info. Anyways, now MIL and FIL are supposedly coming 2 weeks before baby's due. umm I really hope they're not staying with us. I know that's mean but my parents and more importantly my brother may be coming down around that time, but we're not sure of the dates because of his treatment. And I don't even know if MIL asked if it was okay or if they just invited themselves??? I ask Danny for how long and he says " I guess till the baby comes..." I was kind of silent, I don't mind them being here in town but we agreed that we wouldn't have anyone in the house for the first week or at least the first couple of days. Then I ask Danny "You're going to make sure that they know we don't want visitors staying with us right after the baby is born right?" - of couse I get the "yeah yeah"... I told him that I already told my parents and I don't think it should be up to me to tell his parents. I really don't want people staying with us right after the baby is born. I already know it will irritate me. I really want it to be just Danny, I and baby for at least the first couple days. I don't mind them coming to visit during the day but please don't stay in the house. Our house is small and it would be crowded and how do you let one set of parents stay and not the other? It would be like choosing sides... Anyways, I just hope they understand. And I hope that Danny tells them this sooner rather than later.
I get to work this morning, and my coworker tells me he has "allergies" and that he didn't think it was a cold. I told him to stay away from me anyway because I really don't want to get sick right now. Well alittle after this converstion, he comes into my cubicle and inches his way closer to me and then is reaching over pointing at my screen to show me something to work on. Umm you could have just emailed me the work and not come over here to spread your germs. You don't know how many times I thought it was just allergies but ended up having a full blown cold. Anwyays, I just told him to get away from me... hehe, he kind of got mad and went to see another coworker. I don't care, seriously, I already told you I didn't want to get sick - I'm 8 months pregnant, I will catch ANYTHING, why didn't you respect my wishes and stay away? He thinks I'm overreacting and maybe I am, but I've had a good share of colds during my pregnancy, I really don't need to get sick at the end. That really really irritated me....Seriously. I feel like just leaving work today! Oh and this happened before I went to visit my brother, the same coworker told me he had a throat infection and that it wasn't contagious, well I ended getting the WORST sore throat and Iwas so ticked because I was visiting my brother who HAS CANCER and a very low immune system. Why don't people stay home from work if they feel like they're getting sick, even if they think it's "allergies". We get SO many sick days here, use yours so I don't have to use MINE. GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
I am one irritated pregnant woman! lol
UPDATE - I emailed my coworker and apologized if I offended him and explained (again) that I don't want to risk getting sick this close to the end of the pregnancy, he said he understood. I feel better about it now....
