Today, while at an amusement park my husband left me to walk with all of our friends because he said that I moved too slow. I'm pregnant. FML
I agree, your life sucks (38954) - you totally deserved it (3506)

well, screw your husband for leaving you alone when he obviously knew you were pregnant. he should have told his friends the reason why you were going so slow and shouldve asked his friends to either deal with it or go ahead and he and you will catch up. that being said, why were you at an amusement park; you are pregnant and you are going to an amusement park only to sit down and watch your husband and his ride on rollercasters, because im pretty sure they wouldnt let you on the rides.

wow that really does suck and i hope you said something about the way you were being treated.
All the people who're saying why were you at an amusement park if you're pregnant, well she can go there if she wants as long as she's not on the rides and there are really slow rides that she could actually ride if she really wanted to( being pregnant doesn't mean you're handicap, I've seen pregnant women who look like they're ready to pop at the gym doing the exercises they still can without any harm to them or the baby). Plus there are other things at an amusement park like shows, shops, food etc, Also what is it with the people who keep generalizing and coming up with scenario on their own to make it sound like she deserved it. How about this one for you guys, maybe she had to go because her husband and friends actually asked her to and she thought it would be better than her sitting at home. Maybe she wanted to spend time with her husband and like the dick he is, all he wanted was to go to the amusement park instead of being generous towards his pregnant wife.
I am not necessarily saying that she deserved that kind of treatment from her husband―she didn't. I'm just saying that she has to pay whatever the amount of money was to get in the park, just to go on slow, kiddie rides. I mean what does she expect??? She's carrying a baby, she's not going to be able to walk as fast as the others, and I'm pretty sure her husband and his friends do not want to spend the day or their money on slow rides. And she can't go on fast roller coaster rides, because she is very likely to get sick, and there is a chance that it could hurt the baby, and then if that happened, they would all have to leave, which would be a complete waste. It would only make sense if she went to the park with one of her friends who agreed to come along and stick by her. And I know she can do other things like eat and see shows, but then what's the point of sticking with the group and complaining like she is, unless they all decide to go see shows. If I were the OP, and I was given the choice of going to an amusement park to watch my husband and friends go on rides, while i sit down and watch them have fun, or go eat and see shows, OR stay home, have friends over, or even have some alone time (because once the baby comes, there's no such thing), I would stay home (and staying home doesn't have to be the only option, btw). The husband was wrong for treating her that way, as I previously posted, and as aggravting as it was, he should have asked them to slow down or he couldve told them to go ahead and the OP and her husband would catch up
i don't normally write so much, and i didn't even realize this as I was writing lol.

YDI for having sex
#121 - On 08/27/2009 at 12:47am by ninaaftermath
Agree with wow18 on this one, but people always look for reasons to say YDI.
She's pregnant and she wanted to go to the amusement park. Just because you would have done differently doesn't mean she should have been dismissed by her husband like that. Her husband should have been patient and walked with her even if it was at a slower pace. We haven't been given all the details, but I'm pretty sure he had something to do with her getting pregnant... or at least consented to it. He should be considerate of her condition and the limitations it brings.
#126 - On 08/27/2009 at 2:06am by englishmuffin
Pregnancy doesn't slow you down that much unless you're in the last two months. If she's in the last two months and going to an amusement park for the day, she has to expect she'll get left behind at some point.

YDI for getting pregnant and therefore over-populating the planet when you give birth.
#130 - On 08/27/2009 at 3:01am by emilysanftwsom
I think it's an FML because her husband is inconsiderate and a YDI because she is too.
Just an opinion.
#133 - On 08/27/2009 at 4:33am by meandonlyme
number #126: thats exactly what i just said. (sorry don't mean to be rude) I said the husband should have asked his friends to walk slower or tell his friends to go ahead and walk with the OP even if it is at a slower pace
#155 - On 08/27/2009 at 12:31pm by fmlfmlfml15
I think she was at the amusement park because she wanted to spend time with her husband and their friends. It doesn't make sense to say, "what were you doing there?" because it insiunates that she didn't belong. Being pregnant is a temporary diasbility and at the workplace, they would allow her reasonable accommodations. Friends are pretty well expected to do the same - what if a friend were oncrutches or something? Wouldn't true friends walk slower or carry things? If they don't have time to wait for OP, then they don't have time to be there.
#174 - On 08/29/2009 at 11:17pm by TryToBeKind
tht doesn't make sense dumbass she didn't eat A baby so how is she wht she ate? she's walkin slower cause she's Pregnant not cause she's fat like uu

What the hell is the point of going to an amusement park if you're not going on rides. That is honestly exactly like saying "Ok I'm gonna slow everyone down and bitch half the time to stop and rest, now lets have fun!"
Deserves it for being self-absorbed
#31 - On 08/26/2009 at 5:52pm by pickwick716
exactly..whats the point of sitting there and watching other people go on the rides and have fun? ydi.
I agree with the 3 people above me. There is no point of going to an amusement park if you are pregnant.
Too many negative votes, comment buried. Show the comment.
i actually don't agree with you.
just because she is pregnant doesn't mean she has to sit around her house all day.
besides, maybe she just wanted to spend time with her husband and friends, no big deal.
#78 - On 08/26/2009 at 8:19pm by rebel_yell_tiny
That was what I thought. I mean, jesus, what could you possibly get out of an amusement park other than the food? It's seems like the only thing you were doing was just slowing them up, I sympathize with your husband.
#81 - On 08/26/2009 at 8:32pm by genius_man16
I don't get why everyone voted these down. It's true.
Why would you go to an amusement park if you're so pregs you can't keep pace with the group? It's a waste of money if you just want to spend time with friends and family. You can do that somewhere else that doesn't involve a lot of walking and subjecting yourself and your baby to a hot sun. You're supposed to avoid overheating during your pregnancy, anyway.
I agree completely. I'm sorry, but if you're pregnant enough to be slowing everyone down, you have no business being at an amusement park. If you wanted to spend time with your friends, you could have picked somewhere else. I'm sure I'll be buried because some assholes can't stand anyone who doesn't agree with them. YDI
Wow, you're all jerks! Maybe she wanted to spend some time with her husband and decided to go to the amusement park? There are OTHER things to do at amusement parks aside from going on the rides. And just because she is pregnant, doesn't mean she's going to sit around the house all day!
OP, sorry to hear that. That's mean of him to do. And you do NOT deserve it.
Well, I guess, if she is very pregnant, then she wouldn't have to be there, but her friends and husband also could have been a little bit considerate in her condition. In my opinion...
#101 - On 08/26/2009 at 9:34pm by rebel_yell_tiny
lol true, but when i was younger my parents brought me to the amusement park but didnt go on any of the rides..
#120 - On 08/27/2009 at 12:32am by LMFAOwhilereadin
"There are OTHER things to do at amusement parks aside from going on the rides."
#96: Like what? Eat unhealthy food that probably isn't the best thing for the baby? Inhale second-hand smoke? Go-Carts are a no-preggo ride so that's a no-go. Roller-skating probably wouldn't be wise.
There really isn't much else.
#166 - On 08/28/2009 at 12:49am by tomakobriefs
oh, come on. he probably didn't just leave her. he just walked ahead because he got tired of walking with someone who was walking that slow. it's not a big deal. i mean, i would get annoyed, but it's not a big deal. honestly, why would you go when you can't really go on any of the rides and would pretty much slow everyone else down anyway?
#32 - On 08/26/2009 at 5:53pm by curryndricegirll
What an assfuck, kick him in the balls and tell him to carry the baby if your too slow for him.
#6 - On 08/26/2009 at 5:31pm by kionnalexus
She can go to an amusement park, no harm in that, as long as she doesn't do any of the rides. Maybe she just wanted to hang out with her friends?
#8 - On 08/26/2009 at 5:32pm by PointMissed
Your husband AND your friends thought that this was acceptable behavior? Sounds like you need an upgrade on both.
Indeed. And how are they your friends if they leave you all alone at an amusement park? When I go somewhere with friends, we wouldn't even think of leaving anyone behind, except to go on a ride they don't want to do.
why are you at an amusement park if your prego you can't ride half of the rides?
#13 - On 08/26/2009 at 5:37pm by noonecaresurfat
The point is to teach the husband a lesson, not kill him.
#98 - On 08/26/2009 at 9:30pm by PutDownTheGun
I think you did the right thing. Let them go and have fun. If I ended up in a wheelchair for a while and went to the amusement park, I'd tell my friends to go and have fun and not worry about me. I'd feel bad for ruining their trip.

that's your fault and you shouldn't go to an amuesement park when your pregnant
That's what you get for trying to please a man by agreeing to go out. By the sounds of it sounds like you're ready to pop coz u can't walk. So next time, just sit at home!
#17 - On 08/26/2009 at 5:42pm by tWitt3rBuG
He should have carried you on his fucking back if he wanted you to move faster.
Though I don't see this much as a FYL moment. You know that you're pregnant so who gives a crap what he said?
#18 - On 08/26/2009 at 5:42pm by screwtaylor
...why are you at an amusement park if you are pregnant?
#20 - On 08/26/2009 at 5:44pm by in_wonderland
Why would you go to an amusement park if you're pregnant?
I agree, he's a dick, and FYL, but what are you doing there in the first place?
#21 - On 08/26/2009 at 5:44pm by CircusofValues
That's inconsiderate of him but wtf were you doing at an amusement park?

YDI idiot for going to an amusement park while being pregnant!~
#23 - On 08/26/2009 at 5:45pm by BulletStreet
she can hang out with them but if shes having trouble keeping a normal pace and cant go on the rides anyways and is just complaining about being left behind...when shes going to be left behind on every ride bc she cant ride ride while preggers thats pretty stupid
#68 - On 08/26/2009 at 7:49pm by plutosaplanet
youre an idiot. shes not complaining about the fact that shes pregnant shes complaining (if that is even the right word) about her husband ditching her when she is pregnant with HIS kid. are you that fuckin retarded?
#159 - On 08/27/2009 at 4:12pm by RideTheCulture
People. You can go to an amusement park if you're pregnant. But, you just won't ride ride's.
#27 - On 08/26/2009 at 5:50pm by HayItsHaley
uhm yeah theres nothing wrong with going to an amusment park while pregnant. its excercise and ur supposed to be excercising. as long as u dont do the rough rides your fine. for the ppl being douches and clicking ydi, tell me how the fuck she deserves to be ditched by her husband and "friends" for being a little slow cuz shes carrying a baby?
OP: im sorry that happened :( that says a lot about your husband and "friends" tho. fyl
#29 - On 08/26/2009 at 5:52pm by orlandogirl4life
Because she agreed to going there in the first place. She should have known if they were going to go on rides or just sit around with her. Maybe she doesn't totally deserve it but they should have planned something different.
Wow, the rest of you commenters are idiots. The OP went to the amusement park to hang out with her husband and friends rahther than sit home alone by herself. Just because she came, doesnt meant she had to go on the rides to have fun..
yeah but she did have to pay like $50 to watch her friends have fun
#35 - On 08/26/2009 at 5:58pm by crazycelt72
i can't believe the FMLs that are getting through. this is pretty much saying your husband walked ahead of you, because you were walking to slow. it's annoying but not an FML nor is it funny. it's just stupid.
to everyone who thinks he's horrible. he didn't just leave her stranded in an amusement park. i think it's pretty obvious that the friends were a few feet ahead and the husband wanted to walk ahead with them. while i think it's annoying that he did that, it's kind of ridiculous that you're holding a grudge over it. and yes it is a grudge, if you took one really minute event of your day and came home to post it on FML saying that you life is f***ed
#37 - On 08/26/2009 at 5:59pm by curryndricegirll
YDI.
What the hell were you doing in an amusement park if you're pregnant?
You can't go on any rides.
You should have known you'd slow everyone down.
#38 - On 08/26/2009 at 6:00pm by MiniatureMayhem
Tsk tsk your husband wanted to have fun at an amusment park and left you behind like that and your "friends" went along...pay your real friend a visit and spend the night with him... his name is vodka, just drink your sorrows away
(dont do that)
why would you go to an amusement park while you're PREGNANT?!?! wtf

YDI for being at an amusement park while pregnant anyway... Your baby is probably going to get some sick mutation or something
lucaso86: im pretty sure she didnt actually RIDE the rides. shes just there with her husband and friends.
OP: wow. im sorry u married a dick):
and ur friends arent very nice for leaving u either.
#43 - On 08/26/2009 at 6:14pm by ALittleBirdToldM
wow lol her life is over her husband walked a few fucking feet to talk with his friends HOLY CRAP SOMEBODY CALL THE WHINE PATROL! wow he didnt fucking ditch you ffs stop being a drama queen
#64 - On 08/26/2009 at 7:33pm by Unregistered
Hey dicks, ever heard of arcades, gift shops, food courts, freak shows, ticket/prize games? These are all other things you can do while at an amusement park besides go on rides. So many people keep bitching that she went to an amusement park while pregnant, but I swear most of you didn't use your brains. Being pregnant isn't the end of the world; you can still go out and have a good time. There may be restrictions, but you don't have to sit on your ass all day until you're finally in labor. Holy shit, this site is starting to suck due to comments like the above.
#44 - On 08/26/2009 at 6:25pm by synacious
Not only that it's extremely frowned on for a pregnant woman to sit around and do nothing. With both of my pregnancies the doctor I had made sure I was getting plenty of exercise.
Every woman I knew that sat around with their pregnancy had extreme difficulties like gestational diabetes, extreme weight gain (yes you can gain too much weight), and preeclampsia.
#57 - On 08/26/2009 at 6:54pm by TotalPandamonium
seriously, just because she's pregnant means she has to sit at home by herself? men need to stop commenting on this one. they've never been pregnant before. him not having the patience to walk beside the woman who is carrying his child shows alot about his character. unless she insisted that he had fun and then pouted about it later. but in any case he should not have left her. not if he loves her.
#46 - On 08/26/2009 at 6:28pm by vita_questa_roba
Seriously??? My husband gave me a hard time ONCE....ONCE when I was pregnant and I literally threw a book (What To Expect When You're Expecting) at his head!! He never gave me crap again! I say...throw the damn book at him!!! What a jerk!
omg people stf.! just because she is pregnant don't mean she can't go to a freaking amusement park... they also have pools in amusement parks!!!
ps. your husband is a dick... don't worry about it thought don't take it personal...men can be so mean without even knowing it.
YDI for marrying a jerk, having jerky friends, and because you should try to stay in shape even while pregnant.
#54 - On 08/26/2009 at 6:45pm by wiener_lover
If someone is a group is pregnant, on crutches or not keeping up with the group for any reason, it is common courtesy to SLOW DOWN and walk with your friend. It is an amusement park trip among adults - it is NOT necessary to walk around the park in record time. *And just because someone is pregnant and cannot ride alot of rides does not mean that she should have to stay home and watch TV all day!

yes sweat but that time she wasted at the amusment park could have been easily put into 1)cleaning the dishes 2) cleaning the floors 3) cooking a meal seriously i would be pretty happy to come home to a clean house with a meal ready MAYBE APPRECIATE YOUR FUCKIN HUSBAND
#66 - On 08/26/2009 at 7:36pm by Unregistered
Just because she can't go on a ton of rides doesn't mean she couldn't go. The OP might of been waiting to go to a water park which a ton of amusement parks have. She could of went with the intention of filming everyone. She could of had a pass and wanted to make the most out of it pregnant or not. I say FYL because your husband and friends were inconsiderate and should of walked near you at least so you could be included in the conversation.
OP: Your husband and friends are dicks.
Everyone else: If you think she deserves it because she went to an amusement park while she's pregnant, you're just effing stupid. Amusement parks aren't made up of only thrill rides. They also have more calm, slower rides (meant for people who DON'T like thrill rides), shows, arcades, gift shops, food courts, restaurants, and a number of other things for people to do. Just because a woman is pregnant doesn't mean she has to sit at home and watch Oprah all day until the kid pops out. Get a clue.
Also, during this summer heat, I don't know why they would want to walk fast at all. Most likely, lines are going to be long no matter which ride/show/whatever it is you want to go on/see, so there's no rush. I wouldn't want to get all gross and sweaty just to be 346th in line.
She probebly went to the amusement park with them so she could be included and not have to sit at home for 5 hours by herself. She wanted to go out and enjoy a fun day, even if that means just watching. He could have been more supportive of her. He should try and carry a baby in his stomach for 9 months. Yeeesh.
#61 - On 08/26/2009 at 7:14pm by Daaniellee1234
If you're so pregnant that you're having to waddle, wtf are you doing at an amusement park and such?
If you're just using a pregnancy as an excuse, get over yourself. OMG, I'm PREGNANT, I'M MOODONNA, BOW DOWN TO ME AND TREAT ME LIKE A PRINCESS!
Cripes, get over it.
#62 - On 08/26/2009 at 7:20pm by firebirdforever

Were you are Carowinds? the paramount park, there is cool, its on the north/south carolina border..anyway, what a jerk husband
#67 - On 08/26/2009 at 7:44pm by Hard_Echoes
All sympathize with you this time, but if you get pregnant again... YDI.
Girl: "My husband acts like a jerk when I'm pregnant."
rational person: "Well, don't let him have sex with you and you won't get pregnant."
Girl: "But I love him!"
you shouldn't even be at an amusement park if u are pregnant
#71 - On 08/26/2009 at 8:00pm by scenellamas
I don't go to amusement parks with friends for the rides. I go to hangout.
#75 - On 08/26/2009 at 8:13pm by PenNameHere
Yep, never go to an amusement park pregnant. You can't ride any of the rides and completely waste the 40 bucks plus food it cost you to get in in the first place.
#76 - On 08/26/2009 at 8:17pm by angelofmusic89
maybe your dad looked like he was pregnant and wanted to take it out on you. anyway that was disrespectful. or maybe he just doesn't know what a pregnant woman looks like. fyl
YDI for getting knocked up by his cockmonkey ass. This isn't the first time he did shit like this and its not gonna be the last. Get used to raising that kid by yourself now...its not gonna change.
wow. he's a douche.
but on the other hand..why were you at an amusement park if you're pregnant? aren't you NOT supposed to ride the rides?
If you're 3 months or under, YDI for moving slow. But if not... what can I say, men like their big shiny rollercoaster rides :p
#83 - On 08/26/2009 at 8:38pm by iGreen_Day
Haha. My dad did that to my mom at King's Island when my sister was a baby. Well, she wasn't pregnant, but my sister was like 1 and was colichy. She walked my sister around in her stroller until her feet bled from the blisters. So I guess it could be worse?
#84 - On 08/26/2009 at 8:39pm by kickitnride34
YDI for going to an amusement park while pregnant. You're just going to piss everyone off and not be able to go on the rides. (I have kids... I didn't waste money on things I couldn't do).
#85 - On 08/26/2009 at 8:40pm by 110879
You shouldn't be at the amusement park! I mean, what kind of fun would you be able to have there while pregnant? Go walk by the beach, please.
YDI and no excuse. If you're a few months pregnant, I'm sure you could keep up just fine. If you're close to giving birth, you shouldn't really be at an amusement park in the first place.
#89 - On 08/26/2009 at 9:09pm by iVika
honey, im sorry about all the dickheads bashing you here and about how poorly you were treated. in no circumstance did you deserve that. i know the feeling. i have a condition that causes me to limp and have a slower than average gait and ive been ditched several times at amusement park simply because of my unchangeable pace and even though there are very few rides i cant/wont ride.
i do feel the need to ask why you married such a beast.
#91 - On 08/26/2009 at 9:17pm by AmbrosiaLK
wow, what an ass. and you probably shouldn't even be at the beach when your pregnant especially if your near your due date.
#92 - On 08/26/2009 at 9:18pm by xohxcassiex13x
I vote YDI.
Seriously, if you're so pregnant you can't keep up, you're slow, heavy, miserable, and have intolerable mood swings. You would be NO fun in any event that required hours upon hours of walking. You should have let your friends and your husband go and have a good time - not forced them to stick next to your waddling behind and listen to you whine about your water retention.
*from a recently pregnant woman.
#93 - On 08/26/2009 at 9:19pm by LadyAlathia
Not all pregnant women have the same symptoms. And maybe she was sick of sitting at home and wanted to get out of the house and spend some time with her husband/friends.
I kind of see it as both FYL and YDI. You've got every right to go with your husband and friends, but they should have been conscious of the fact that you wouldn't be able to ride any of the rides and would have trouble keeping up and should have taken that into account. On the other hand, you probably knew you'd have problems ahead of time and could have declined politely or requested to go somewhere else.
#100 - On 08/26/2009 at 9:33pm by PutDownTheGun
Women who are pregnant want to have fun to. Just because she couldn't go on thrill rides doesn't mean she couldn't have a good time. Heck I climbed a volcano 5 months pregnant and even though it took long I still was glad I did it and my husband kept pace with me the whole time but I guess I shouldn't of done that because all pregnant woman should sit home and do nothing. As long as she was safe and not over exerting herself what harm is there in her going to hang out with everyone?
who's the daddy? hopefully not your husband, because that baby has a pretty good chance of coming out insensitive.
y the heack were u at an amusement park? do u have other kids?
#106 - On 08/26/2009 at 9:44pm by 11bellacasey
What a jerk!!
He should be more caring and loving if your pregnant, I mean if he was pregnant I don't think he'd be walking to fast either. Tell him to think about what your going through and to take it into consideration that your carrying who knows how many pounds of extra baggage on you!
She's probably just extra whiny and over dramatic from being pregnant. Oh, and you deserve it for being pregnant and going to an amusement park.
This comment getting buried is testament to the overwhelming female majority on these commenting boards.
WAT! he's horriable! he should be helping u walk, n lovin da fact ur carring his baby. wat does he mean ur walking 2slow? its his baby. he should want u2 slow down. wat r u doin@ a asmusmentpark anyway? u'd think he'd be worried about u.
#110 - On 08/26/2009 at 10:21pm by DarkAngelMea
a pregnant woman at an amusement park? hardly likely, considering about 75% of the rides don't allow pregnant women. but i can picture you going with friends. i don't think this is fake, someone making this up would pick something like a mall, not an amusement park.
#111 - On 08/26/2009 at 10:44pm by triplethreat13
aw what a jerk :(
it was probably not a good idea to go watch them all go on rides at an amusement park but who wants to miss out on the fun, right?
i'd be so upset if my boyfriend or future husband ever said that to me
Stupid baby.
No I'm jk. Seriously though, fyl for having such a turkey-ass husband.
#116 - On 08/26/2009 at 11:51pm by iFruit
why are you at an amusement park while prego? you can't do anything fun anyway...I woulda gone to the spa
instead and let your hubby and
friends walk around.
#117 - On 08/27/2009 at 12:00am by AshleyRose784
ydi for being pregnant in the first place. and I have a feeling this FML is just your typical pregnant woman wanting everyone to say "oh you poor thing, you're doing the most important job in the world bla bla"
get over it. pretty much every female can get pregnant, it's not a big achievement. and your husband should probably get used to you being slow and boring now that you have a kid on the way
#118 - On 08/27/2009 at 12:05am by modifiedchick
Saying that someone deserves something for being pregnant is just silly. After all, if a certain someone didn't get pregnant, you wouldn't be here to leave juvenile comments on FML, would you?
I don't know if I can even call this trolling. It was just bad. Try again.
'...with another mans child' you forgot that part! Your welcome!!

While everyone has the right to go to the amusement park if they please, I see no point in wasting money (lots of money at that) on a ticket to get in when the main point of an amusement park is the rides. If I couldn't ride whichever ride I wanted to ride I would be saving my money until next season when I was no longer pregnant. While there are shows, food, and such, at my local Six Flags, the best and ONLY good part is honestly the rides. I don't spend the money to go for my family if everyone isn't big enough or willing (or able) to ride pretty much every ride there.
There are other things that can be done in groups to spend time with the husband and friends that don't involve wasting that much money. In my opinion it was completely stupid for her (or anyone who can't or won't ride all the rides) to go to something that is expensive and mostly about the rides, nothing more.
Depending on where OP went, she might have a season pass that she paid for in advance. Maybe she's trying to get all that she can out of it before the season's over.
why would you WANT to go to an amusement park while pregnant?
you cant ride any rides. plus, its summer, so its hot. so its a million degrees out, your on your feet all day, you cant go on any rides, its doesnt make sense to me.
YDI for going to an amusement park while pregnant. your husband probably wanted to have fun and not have to stay back and just watch.
you could have let him go, and went to the pool with one of your girl friends. that what i'd rather do.(:

#138, with your mentality, we'd have no women willing to have sex with men. We'd have a generation of happy lesbians and sad straight guys, until the human race dies.
ok...first...this trip had been planned by our church almost a year in advance, so everyone already had their tickets to go.
second...there were about 5 other people in our group that didn't like riding rollar coasters so we all went on the boat rides and the train rides, and to the shows.
third...my options were go to the amusement park and hang out with friends all day, or sit at the office for half the day and then go home by myself and do nothing.
fourth...i don't understand how deciding to have a child with your husband makes you a slut. can anyone explain that to me?
oh, and by the way being pregnant may make you slow, but it doesnt make you boring. boring would have been staying at the house doing nothing all day.
Why the fuck are you at an amusement park? Are you trying to have a miscarriage?
#141 - On 08/27/2009 at 9:25am by TotallyAwesome
you cant have a miscarraige by walking around or riding the slow rides. i said we were walking through the park, not riding a roller coaster. why dont you pay attention?!?
oh yeah and i forgot to say also that i mainly stayed with a little group all day and let him do his own thing. when he left me was when we had all met up at the end of the day and were walking back to the church van to leave for home. so no....i was not holding him back from riding anything or having a fun time. i was holding him back from walking to the parking lot.
1) That's very dick-ish of him.
2) You're pregnant. What is the point of going to an amusement park? You can't go on any rides anyway. And if you DO go on rides anyway, YDI.
YDI you were obviously going to be a burden to them, just stay home and let them have fun. im glad he ditched you jeez i hate it when people do stuff like this. my friends went to the county fair and i stayed home on crutches cause i didnt want to slow them down. take a lesson, you should not be at an amusement park anyways prego
i wasn't being a burden on him. i spent the day walking around with the other people in our group that didn't want to ride the roller coasters. he ditched me at the end of the day when we all met back up and were walking toward the parking lot. so dont even try to act like you know something. cause you dont.
ok listen...i'm not trying to rag on my husband. he's a very sweet man, he just sometimes says things without realizing how they may sound to others around. ok. i love my husband, i just put this up here cause i thought it was funny and that others would enjoy reading it. i wasnt intending on getting such negative comments about him or about me.
omfg who would say ydi??? and what dummy would say u can get a miscarrage form that? u need lots of excersize for a helthy pregnancy so by all means you were doing the right thing by going and walking around. u need to remind ur husband that u have the hard job of caring HIS baby and u need his help and understanding. what ever that means. at least u wernt left alone and were walking around with other ppl so u cant be too mad at him lol. congrats on the pregnancy and good luck with the rest of it :)

I enjoyed reading it. It was very funny, and all men have their moments. Especially when their wives are pregnant lol. And people shouldn't tell you not to complain because it took both of you to get pregnant so he knew what came with that. It was sweet that you even went to the amusement park, especially when it's not the coolest time of the year. But again, I found this very funny. Best of luck in your pregnancy :)
thank you very much!!!! i wrote this cause i thought it was funny...i mean my husband says a lot of things that he means in a different way, but they come out sounding harsher than intended. now yes i got a little frustrated with him, but in the end it was just meant to be a funny story. i didn't realize how many people would get on here and say stupid insensitive things about both of us, and it irritates me. i was just trying to make people laugh, and they turned around and started calling both of us horrible names. i'm just glad that somebody understands what was intended.
So what? You do move slowly. You're PREGNANT. So deal with reality if you get knocked up, Jesus Christ.

that's rude of him but if you're pregnant, you shouldn't really be at an amusement park. most of the rides say not to go on them if you're pregnant.
#157 - On 08/27/2009 at 2:15pm by blackr0se13
Hey retards. Pregnant women have just as much of a right to be at amusement parks as you do. There are other things to do there besides rides, you know. If she's able to walk at all why should she have to just sit inside the house all day?
OP: You husband is a dick. Afterall, he played a pretty big role to get you in that sort of condition, so the least he can do is be considerate. If he can't handle that than he's probably not mature enough for a kid.
Jesus CHRIST people, if getting pregnant is such a horrible, black torrent of everlasting pain and misery, look into this neat invention called BIRTH CONTROL. If you got pregnant purposely because you wanted kids, or just refuse to use birth control, then stop FUCKING WHINING. Its your own fault.
And no, I'm not a man, so I'm not being sexist. I've known a lot of pregnant people and none of them whined and bawled about how much it sucked, or sat around and did absolutely nothing the entire time. They enjoyed the experience.
#164 - On 08/27/2009 at 9:50pm by Sprinter136
so? you cant even get on the rides, and aparently he does, i mean he left you with FRIENDS NOT ALONE. so no fml here.
#167 - On 08/28/2009 at 1:39am by Paige_Nicole10
Face it -- women in this country can choose to be pregnant, or not. If you don't like being pregnant, fix it. It's not up to your husband to ruin his trip to an amusement park because you decided to get (and stay) pregnant.
#168 - On 08/28/2009 at 10:18am by ozymandias
#168 sucks. You don't know if she chose to get pregnant. And the "(And stay)" What do you think, she'd want an abortion? Uh, probably not. Baby murderer. |:
And; You're husbands an ass, he should stay with you, he could go on the rides and have you sit and wait for a sec or something.

I agree your husband is a jerk but why did you agree to go to an amusement park in the first place if you were pregnant? You can't go on most of the rides, its a lot of walking and the entry cost isn't cheap.
Why the hell were you even there in the first place? You basically cannot go on any rides other than a carousal, not to mention it's a fortune to spend getting in.
it amazes me the number of stupid fucks that have all gathered on one website to insult a pregnant woman for having a life
#175 - On 08/29/2009 at 11:40pm by AmbrosiaLK
seriously. i have alot of friends who don't like rides and they go anyway for the company and the good time. its not all about the rides. the OP was trying to spend some time with her husband. Your husband sounds like a jerk.
#176 - On 08/30/2009 at 12:13am by hotncold9
Ok, I'd like to say my parents and other family members don't like roller coasters but they still go to amusement parks. Why? Because they want to spend time with their family AND let the younger people have a good time. I really don't see how she was being selfish by going...
if ur pregnant u really shouldn't be at an amusment park
