News to me

Today, my colleague rushed off to the hospital for the birth of his first son. Having met his wife at the Christmas party a couple of years ago, I called to congratulate her. Shame I didn't realize it was his mistress having the baby. Guess who broke the news to the wife. FML

...if he wanted it kept secret, why was he telling everyone at his work?

Ooops, but at least you got the wife into the clearing! It's about time she saw through the cheating bastard this colleague of yours is!

he would have needed a excuse to get off work, i doubt he yelled out "im having a baby!!!" , he probably mentioned it casually and it got passed around work

I'm guessing his wife isn't really involved with his work... Meaning he isn't worried about people there knowing. Guess he was wrong.

Sure she's gonna take the time to answer a few calls while on labor

Having a baby sorta takes awhile. Yes, she has time for a phone call.

It's a rule for fml's to start with 'today'.

Comment moderated for rule-breaking.

Show it anyway

I agree, if I got a random phone call from my husband coworker, I'd be like, "Who the hell is this again?!"

Nowhere in the FML does it say "once". They could have met and became friends.

if they were friends or somewhat close, you would think she would have known if the coworkers wife was pregnant, FYL

My thoughts exactly! Especially when she’s on the way to give birth?!? This guy clearly wasn’t thinking.

I assume the OP called the wife when she thought the couple had left the hospital.

Yeah OP, is it Tiger Woods? I mean, all the ladies want Tiger's Wood. ;{P

Aha09, it was funny once but you killed it.

this is not an fml, this should be on IMMD. your colleague is a cheating bastard.

1. why do you have her cell phone number 2. they don't let you have cell phones in a hospital...you are such a liar

Who said it was a cell phone? If it was a cell phone who said she called while they were still i the hospital?

Pretty sure I used my cell while in labor with both my kids...

Who said you can't have your cell phone in a hospital? I texted and called all the time when I went to the emergency room for stomach and head problems.

Can use cell phones in hospital. Grow up " such a liar"
