Today, I corrected my mom in front of our family while she was ragging on my 12 year old cousin who got a piercing. She said, "You don't understand you don't have kids, but on the other hand you probably never will!" I have Polycystic ovary syndrome, she is right, I probably never will. FML

Same thing different taste
Support system
Today, I was diagnosed with polycystic ovaries and confided in my mom, after being told I would have trouble having kids. Five minutes later, I hear the whole family laughing about it downstairs. FML
Today, in front of the entire family, I yelled at my mom and told her she wasn't a good parent. She responded with, "Well, at least I had friends when I was your age." FML
Today, my mother accused me of getting another lip piercing done on the sly to spite her. She finally realised I have more than one and won't believe I've always had two. Thanks for noticing, mom. FML
Devil parents
Today, my mother-in-law said: "People who don't have kids are children of the devil." I'm infertile, she knows this. 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
Today, I asked my mum why she never had any children after me. She scoffed and asked if I've looked in a mirror lately. FML
Sensitive
Today, my mom had to go off on my grandmother because I don’t have kids yet and she, "wants great grand babies before she dies." My grandmother was going to gift me a baby outfit for me to get another hint. I’m 25 and can’t conceive because of health issues. I may never have my own kids. She knows. FML
Under pressure
Today, my mom asked me out of the blue if I was ever going to consider getting married. It wasn't until after the conversation ended that I remembered my siblings are all either single like I am, or incapable of having children. I am my mother's last hope of becoming a grandma, and she reminds me all the time. FML
Supportive
Today, once again, my mom ranted about how she sacrificed so much for me by moving to a better city. I said it was for my education and to stop making me feel like a burden. She scoffed, "Right, you never should've been born. My mistake." FML
Vessels
Today, my mom bitched me out for still being single at age 19, and still not having started a family. She considers this "immoral," yet showed nothing but praise for my sister, who's pregnant at 15 and doesn't know which of three guys is the father. FML

you people act like it's impossible to have kids. it's really not, it just takes a little more. not impossible.

You shoulda just replied that "at least you won't turn out to be a mother like her." I mean, ouch, she must've known about your condition, so for her to just so carelessly say that, that's horrible. I mean, you already have to deal with the consequences of this, but that doesn't mean you have to take any crap from her.

I used to get several cysts every year, but since using the advice of Dr. Mercola. at www.mercola.com the world's most visited natural health website, I have only had one small one, with very little inflammation, and which quickly healed. This is in 4 years! Check out the homemade NATURAL ANTIBACTERIAL & ANTIVIRAL PREVENTATIVE PRODUCT at http://shaneris.gqnu.net I make enough spice mix for many weeks, but use fresh garlic, daily. Unless you are allergic, there are no risks (no guarantees, either!).

I was diagnosed with the same thing just over 4 years ago after losing a fallopian tube to a large cyst. Your mom is a total bitch for saying that. Even if the diagnosis was a long time ago, it still hurts to know that you may never be able to have your own children without spending ludicrous amounts of money for IVF and other fertility treatments.

So, everybody has PCOS now?

That was really harsh of your mom to say. I know what you're going through. I've been diagnosed with PCOS for about 4 years now, and it really hurts to think that I may never be able to have children. I'd like to give props to those who actually know what PCOS is, and are defending it. Those of you who haven't researched it or have no clue what it is shouldn't say anything about the disorder, especially the comment about being obese causes it. That is completely untrue. I mean, Victoria Beckham has it for goodness sake, and I hardly think she is obese at all!

actually being obese can cause it. but other than that no one really knows why it's caused but it can cause obesity.
