Today, after a few drinks my dad decided to tell me the story of how I was born. He wanted a baby girl after my brother, and mum didn't want any more children. So he tricked her by giving her the wrong pill. That should explain a lot. FML

Today, my father informed me that I was born only because my mom lied about being on birth control. FML
Today, my dad told me that I was conceived while he and my mother were high on LSD. He then stared into the distance, mumbled "Probably explains a few things" and chuckled to himself. FML
Today, my old man told me that he only married my mom because she convinced him she was pregnant with his child. In fact, she aborted a week later. "And then we had you instead." FML
Today, my dad told me quite bluntly that, while he loved me, he never planned to have me. My mom baby-trapped him by sabotaging their birth control methods, and my existence ruined his life irrevocably and caused the functional alcoholism he has suffered with for 40 years. FML
Today, my dad took me to a bar for my first legal drink. He quickly got "drunk" and started slurring that I was an accident, saying the only reason I'm alive is because he'd been too poor to pay for an abortion. As I started crying, he burst out laughing and said soberly, "Just kidding, son." FML
Today, I found out that I'm going to be a mother. This was a mystery, since I take birth control and use condoms all the time. Or, at least, it was, until my mother admitted to swapping my pills and poking holes in my condoms so she could have a grandchild before she died. FML
Today, my dad told me that after my two older siblings were born, he got a vasectomy. However, something went wrong, and the vasectomy had failed, resulting in me. FML
Today, I asked my dad if I was a planned baby. He asked me if the crazy drunken party he and my mom had nine months prior to my birth counted. FML
Today, my mom came home heavily drunk. As I was taking care of her, she told me all about how I was a mistake. That didn't hurt nearly as much as when she told me she wishes I'd died during her pregnancy. FML
Today, I found out I was born as a result of someone switching my mom's birth control pills with Tic Tacs. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

#12: the BC pill stops ovulation. if somebody ***** up, then they still ovulate, but it would have no effects on the child. So you're an idiot. #1: You're a ******* douche. Shoot yourself. Nobody wants you here.

F your mom's life!!! I can't imagine what I would do if I found out someone did that to me. 12- The pill can't screw up the baby if you're still taking it after the baby is conceived. That's totally a myth. And it IS possible even after 3 years of taking the pill constantly to miss one and get pregnant.

Hey, #16 and #17, maybe I should be more specific about my post. While physical abnormalities with continued estrogen/progesterone birth control use have been shown to be minimal, there is still inconclusive evidence of harm when it comes to sexual development with continued specific chemical birth control use into pregnancy, as shown in the articles below. I'm guessing the submitter is 20+ so she and the mother probably received a higher dosage of some type of chemical birth control than given today. Depending on the type that was given, that could have raised her risk for some type of problem. I have no problem with birth control or abortion. There are way too many people on this planet as it is. Regardless of any of this quibbling, it's still unequivocally WRONG that the husband would intentionally switch his wife's pills.

Proudpariah - I've got to give you credit, you seem to know what you're talking about, at least regarding your second point. As for the first point - missing one pill wouldn't be that big of a problem, but it doesn't say how long he switched the pills, and if you miss even two then it increases the odds of pregnancy for several days, I believe, based on the warning that came with my pills (I don't know about others) to use back-up birth control for 7 days. If the mom thought her pills were working, the dad probably wouldn't have a hard time convincing her they didn't need backup. Also, OP says he gave her the wrong pill - I assumed the one he gave her was some kind of fertility pill. Not trying to argue, just giving my perspective.

Wow... i can't even - your dad is creepy. Using your mother's love and trust for him against her like that. Though i'm sure she loves you as much as your brother and everything but it was still her choice to make, not his. *hugs*
