Today, I called my mom to tell her that I'm coming over for a visit. She answered: 'Why? What do you need? Food? Money? I'm not going to help you! You're a grown woman!' And she hung up. I just found out that I'm pregnant and she was the first person I wanted to share it with. 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, 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, after telling my mom that I'll be going to Las Vegas with my dad for my 21st birthday, she started ranting about how my dad always wanted to abort me and that she was the only one who actually wanted me. FML

Her body, her choice
Today, I took my daughter to the hospital for a few tests, and it turns out that she's pregnant. She has always said that she doesn't want kids, but I hoped that already being pregnant might change her mind. She called to schedule an abortion during the drive back home. FML

Today, I told my daughter that she's going to be a big sister, because there is a baby growing in my tummy. She's been sobbing because I can't convince her that I didn't eat a baby. FML

Today, holding my newborn baby and yearning for some affection from my mother, I asked my mom what the best day of her life was, hoping she would say the day I was born. Her answer? "The day you moved out." She was serious. FML

Family values
Today, I ran into my aunt I hadn’t seen since I was a child. My mom told me she took off and stopped speaking to everyone. After lunch, I asked her why she left. She said our whole family ostracized her for aborting her abusive husband’s baby and divorcing him instead of "making it work." FML

Today, I got into a heated argument with my mother, during which she told me she wished she’d thrown herself down the stairs the minute she discovered she was pregnant. I told her, “There's the stairs, help yourself!” She called the police and told them I threatened to push her down the stairs. FML

Revelations
Today, I told my mom I was thinking of having a baby. She told me it was a huge mistake because children cost a fortune, make you miserable, and if she'd had her chance again she would have gotten her tubes tied when she was 18 and saved herself the grief. Gee, thanks mom. FML

Judging by her response I'm under the impression your mother may not like you very much, OP. On a serious note, I'm sorry you had to hear that. That was incredibly rude and uncouth of her. But hey, at least she didn't indulge her "craving" and you were born.

Even if that was meant as a joke it was harsh and insensitive.

Makes you grateful for your life, doesn't it? :-)

What a mean thing to say!! I can't imagine EVER saying anything like that to my kids. That's not something to joke about, if she says she was only joking. I'm sorry OP

Tell her that she should have gotten one, to save you from the misery of living with her.

"If I knew what kind of shit mom you would turn out to be, I would have hung myself with my umbilical cord in utero." See how she likes that imagery!

...and see how she'll be impressed by your use of the phrase " in utero."

Your mom's a bitch, even if she was joking like that. ***There's an old wives' tale that says if you have a birthmark, it usually resembles whatever food your mother was craving when she was pregnant with you. I have a T-bone steak on my hip and my sister has a lobster looking one on her angel wing.(but it kinda looks like a penis.):P

Never heard of that birth mark thing... But mine looks like mashed potatoes... Haha. Thanks for the insight...

My birthmark is circular, so that still leaves me guessing. Pancakes, pizza, cookies?
