Pregnancy, Cute and Kids: No warning

No warning

Today, as I was getting my mail, I noticed I'd received a free coupon from a baby supply store, saying, "Congratulations on your pregnancy!" Thinking it was a mistake, I showed my girlfriend, who I live with. All she had to say was, "Surprise!" FML

Today, I sent my mom an email with "Bad news" as the subject. At the end of her reply, she said, "And don't scare me! I thought you were going to tell me you're pregnant!" I AM pregnant, and wanted to surprise her on her birthday. Guess I should get her something less disappointing. FML

Today, I went to my local Walmart to grab a few groceries, and while at the checkout line I grabbed two chocolate bars for a snack. The cashier gave me a look and mumbled under her breath, "Surprise, surprise." I'm pregnant, asshole. FML

Today, my mom was going through the newspaper and cutting out coupons for me to use. She hands me two of them, one for tampons and the other for a pregnancy test saying "well, you're gonna need one or the other this month." FML

#1....He found out that his girlfriend is pregnant from a coupon in the mail. OP....That's a sucky way of finding out, sure, but is your life really ******? If you didn't want a baby, maybe you should have been using protection. I think this is kind of a YDI.

#4, the fact that his girlfriend didn't bother to tell the OP that she was pregnant, thus letting him find out via junk mail is the FML.

She may not have been sure how you would take the news. That tends to be quite a problem these days - you never know whether the guy will be happy or abandon you. Try not to freak out about it too much. You may not feel ready for this, but nobody ever truly is anyway. Your perspective will change the moment you lay eyes on the babe.

this FML should have ended with "... I had a vasectomy three years ago." Otherwise I don't see why it's an fml...

That's pretty lame of her to not tell you. There shouldn't be secrets like that in a relationship. Keeping secrets is grounds for ending the relationship (because then who knows what to believe, or what she's not telling you), but now that you're going to be a dad, so much for that idea. FYL indeed.
