Thanks mom, you're the best

Today, I called my mom into my room to ask her to bring me something. She referred to me as a "lazy fat slug." I'm 38 weeks pregnant and was put on emergency bedrest by my doctor. FML

Today, I asked my mom if she could include mashed potatoes and gravy with dinner. She then went on to yell at me about my "unhealthy eating habits" and how I've "gained a lot of weight in the past few months". I'm pregnant. FML

Today, I was at my in-laws' house, and as I was walking to the living room I had my hands on the back of my hips supporting my back. My mother-in-law told me to stop because it makes me look pregnant. I'm 9 months pregnant. FML

Such a Saint

Today, I'm on bed rest after a major surgery. I can walk to the bathroom but can barely raise my hands. At the hospital, my mom gave this dramatic speech of being there whenever I needed her. When I asked her to come make me breakfast, she didn’t show up til noon then complained I was in a bad mood. FML

Today, I texted my mom if she could pick me up from the hospital. She replied "No fatty, walk home." I have a broken foot. FML

Just stop

Today, I was called fat by my boyfriend's old-fashioned mom. I'm not close to fat but I'm not really skinny either so she calls me fat. She also complained that my feet makes noise when I walk and that girls shouldn't make noise when walking. This week has been hell. FML

Today, my bedridden mother called me selfish. After an operation two weeks ago, all I've done is feed her, clean her and the house every day. She called me selfish because I couldn't lift a TV into her room. FML

Classic narcissist mom

Today, I told my mom that I’m pregnant. She said I could use it as an opportunity to “trim down.” I’m 130lbs and muscular. FML

Today, my lazy, obese mother took the last motor cart at the grocery store. My leg is in a cast. She told me to "use the shopping cart to help with the limp" as she rolled away. FML

Comedic timing

Today, while at a family baby shower, my grandfather thought it would be funny to inform me, in front of everyone, that I had gotten fat. I'm 7 months pregnant and the baby shower was for me. FML

Today, while tucking my toddler in bed and telling her I love her, she responded with, "And I love your bouncy castle belly!" I know I'm overweight, but I didn't think I was that fat. FML

Or her mother could have been at her house because she was placed on bedrest and needs someone to take care of her. Good lord, people.

Sorry but this fugly selfish, self centered non grandmother would not even get to see her grandchild if i was the op. I would tell them you can see them when I'm dead because I wouldn't want the uglyness that is you around my child. I tell the truth and will tell you straight out what I think.

Someone should've given your mom that advice.

Sorry your mom said that to you. Sounds to me that she just wasn't really thinking, but she still shouldn't have said it. Hope you two worked it out and didn't stay angry at each other, and I also hope you had a healthy baby.

38 weeks? And still calls you a slug? Seriously! Your mother should understand that...

There's nowhere that says OP is a teen. Her husband/boyfriend is most likely at work so she needs someone to help take care of her.

38 weeks and on bed rest? Why didn't your doctor just have you deliver? fyl for real each time with my pregnancies the last few weeks i had to be up and moving because sitting and laying down was super uncomfortable. So my swollen feet took the pain instead of the rest of my body. Seeing this is an old fml hopefully everything went well and you have an awesome 5 almost 6 year old that also hopefully softened grandma's heart.
