Today, I announced my pregnancy to my boss. I was expecting all sorts of reactions, except, "But... Erm... How did that happen?" FML
Today, over a family dinner, my husband and I told everyone that I'm pregnant. My father frowned and said, "Again?", my 9-year-old daughter started crying, and her brother smirked and yelled, "Up the ass, no babies!" FML
Today, I told my husband I was pregnant, then he fainted. FML
Today, my wife and I convened our families for a joint dinner, followed by me breaking the news that my wife is pregnant. My father visibly scoffed, and my grandfather spent the rest of the evening muttering to him about how "breeders should be shot". Wonderful. 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
Today, we told my fiancé's parents that I'm pregnant. His mom's response? "I'm going to throw up. You can't raise a child." We are both 28, self-sufficient and everyone else is thrilled. FML
Today, I told my students that I would be absent tomorrow because my wife was giving birth. They burst into applause... not to congratulate me on the new baby. FML
Today, I received several texts congratulating me on my pregnancy. It turns out that my husband announced he is going to be a father on Facebook, which I don't use. I'm not pregnant. FML
Today, I excitedly told my best friends I was pregnant. Their responses were, "Ewww, I hate babies", "So we're not getting brunch anymore? That sucks" and "Do you need an abortion? I know a great clinic." Not one of them congratulated me. FML
Today, my husband and I announced at a family get-together that I'm pregnant with our fourth child. My dad sighed, and spent the rest of the evening acting moody, and eventually muttering about how he'd raised a "damned broodmare." FML

You are from Portugal on a day they are playing. What did you honestly expect

I hope that was before Germany Destroyed Portugal or that reaction could have been worse

Gosh, sorry, OP. Can't believe people can be so obsessed with the World Cup as to neglect the realities of their own lives! Definitely FYL.

That is a very good news. Congratulations. Your family reaction, sorry to say, but sucks. In my opinion a child is more important than any football game.

Hearing that your gonna be broke for rest of your life can be hard to take in and perhaps he wished he was playing in the World Cup cause they never score and for that reason don't get told they got the goal after they scored

Not bad that they don't care.

if it isn't your first kid, then you probably shouldn't have expected a bigger reaction, in either case, you wouldn't interrupt a man in church, don't interrupt the world cup eother
