Today, I announced to my fiance that I was pregnant with twins. He immediately called off the engagement, furious at me because we "agreed to only have one child". Sorry my embryo decided to split in two. FML

Thanksgiving
Questions about your love life, a burnt turkey and the cousin who knows everything: Thanksgiving, a contact sport.
Today, I had to make the heartbreaking decision to end my engagement after my fiancé agreed to let several of his obnoxious family members move in without even asking me. He says 'family over everything' but what does that make me? To make matters harder, I just found out I’m pregnant. FML
Today, my husband is not talking to me because he was happy with the two children we had, but I had major baby fever and spent a year talking him into having just one more baby, and the ultrasound just showed I’m having triplets. FML
Today, I called my ex and told him I was pregnant with his child. He was thrilled, going on and on about how much he wanted to be a dad. I had to tell him I was going to abort it. FML
Today, I admitted to my fiance that I'm glad I had a miscarriage. He kicked me out and called off our wedding. FML
Today, my fiance told me he thought it was time that we started to see other people. I'm six months pregnant with his baby. FML
Today, after months of my fiancé begging me to have a baby with him, I found out I’m pregnant. He doesn’t want a baby anymore. FML
Today, my fiancé broke off our engagement after he saw one of my baby pictures. He said our future kids "just wouldn't look right." FML
Today, while having a break up fight with my fiancée, she informed me that the paternity of our unborn child was in question because one of the other guys couldn't remember if he got off or not. FML
Today, I announced to my boyfriend that I'm pregnant. He immediately denied that it was his because "a childhood accident" supposedly left him sterile. He has a child from a previous relationship. FML
Today, I turned down my boyfriend's proposal because I'm pregnant and I told him I didn't want people thinking that's why we were getting married. He… did not react well. Yes, he knows that I'm pregnant. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

It sounds like he's looking for a reason to end the relationship. It may be time to rethink those marriage plans.

And now the idiot is without a wife and he has double the child support

Too bad he didn't stay. You could have had 3 babies.

*our embryos. Cause guess what whether or not he wanted 2 he still gets 2 and all the obligations that go with them. Good luck! There are some really great mothers of multiples groups out there you should look into.

I pray to God, that the kids are smarter than the father.

I'm not completely sure but I think the sperm decides, not the embryo? like if 2 sperm breaks through the eggs then it determines twins

2 sperm cannot penetrate 1 egg. Either the embryo splits from the DNA of 1egg and 1sperm(identical twins) or she ovulated 2 eggs and both were fertilized(fraternal twins)

No. Twins come from the mother's side, an it can only be if the embryo splits. Sperm does not get to choose haha

Biology. It's not for everyone.

Identical twins are when the fertilised egg splits into two embryos; fraternal twins are when the ovaries release two eggs. Semi-identical twins are possible - ie when 1 egg is fertilised by two sperm, but only 1 incidence has ever been identified and they're not sure how it works (i.e. does the egg split before fertilisation, or do the two sperm cause the split?). Google "semi-identical twins"

Of course multiple sperm can penetrate one egg. It's not like one sperm = one baby, two sperm = two babies though for crying out loud. The first sperm touches the egg wall "TOTAL LOCK DOWN OF THE OUTER WALL HAS OCCURRED, NO MORE BABIES TONIGHT, SUNSHINE".

That is actually exactly how it works. When a sperm breaks through the cell membrane of an egg, a chemical reaction takes place in the cell membrane which stops the enzyme on the head of sperm from penetrating the cell membrane, and because this reaction is almost instant, only one sperm can fertilize the egg.

Usually the embryo splits or two eggs are realized. The first creates identical twins, the latter fraternal. But it is also possible for two sperm to enter a single egg, creating what are - in an over simplification for the sake of brevity- half identical twins. There's about a 1% chance of it occurring, but most embryo created from this die very early on. There are living examples though. Half-identical twins can also result from a mother with abnormal chromosomes producing an XY egg that is fertilized by an X chromosome sperm, and the fertilized egg splits after a certain point. (An XY egg fertilized by a Y sperm could hypothetically result in an XYY embryo, but they would have low survival chances and probably some severe health issues even if they survived to term.) Though, now I wonder what would happen if two eggs were released, and two sperm fertilized each egg, or if two sperm fertilized one egg and one sperm fertilized the other...

Best check again as you are wrong.

I don't think anyone has congratulated you on your pregnancy yet, OP. So, congratulations! It sucks that your probably now ex-fiance is a jerkwad, but you're going to have two beautiful bundles of joy, and he's going to have to pay child support whether he likes it or not. I wish you the best of luck, OP. Twins share such a special bond much stronger than most siblings, so sometimes you may need it.

Looks like he is the biggest child of all! His loss.

Not your fault your embryo split. little bit your fault for using your time machine to bring a man back from 10,000BC & then dating him, though! ;)

Or sorry your ovaries released two eggs and not one.
