Today, I learned that not only am I pregnant, I'm too far along for an abortion. My husband and I originally bonded over the fact that we both hate children. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Same thing different taste
Congrats!
Today, I found out my husband is having a baby. Too bad I'm not pregnant. FML
Bad news
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 found out my soon-to-be husband and father of my unborn child is already married to another man. FML
How very dare you?
Today, I had the abortion my husband and I agreed on, after multiple forms of birth control failed. His family somehow found out, and now they're all mad at us for not telling them I was ever pregnant, with a child we never wanted, and took precautions to avoid creating. FML
Prevention
Today, I'm found out I'm pregnant. My husband and I spoke at length about how we were going to handle things, which included him "forbidding" me from having an epidural, because he doesn't want our baby to "come out addicted to drugs." FML
Today, my husband of 3 years learned that he's going to be a father. No, I'm not pregnant. FML
Today, I found out that I'm going to be a father. Too bad I can't tell my wife. FML
Planned parenthood
Today, I found out that I'm pregnant. I also found out that the dad has a fiancée. FML
Bad timing?
Today, I found out that I'm pregnant. I buried my 8-year-old son two weeks ago and had my husband serve me divorce papers three days ago. FML

Today, I found out my husband has been telling everyone he doesn't want a baby. He has been telling me he does. We have been trying for months. I'm now pregnant and confused. FML

There's always adoption.

Adoption. Then get yourselves fixed so you don't have another accident.

You can get an abortion at any time though.... You can get one in the third trimester, in which you should easily know you are pregnant
Askavi 37
No you can't. A baby is viable after 24 weeks, so if the baby is induced then it has a chance to survive outside the womb. They will only do that in the third trimester if the mothers life is at risk.

You can have an abortion until 20 weeks here in the UK. After that the baby is fully formed and able to survive outside the womb and is considered a 'baby' rather than a 'fetus'

It's illegal in the U.S. to get an abortion after the first trimester
bapbap_fml 15
Depends where you live. I don't think there's any specific legislation on it in Canada, I think there are doctors who will perform abortions even in the last trimester.

Bapbap, most doctors aren't trained in late-stage abortions. As of writing this in the United States there are only 4 or 5 that can and will do it. Additional food for thought: these doctors are hounded and threatened and a few have even been killed for doing these abortions. There are some interesting documentaries on the subject.

If you don't want the child, give them up for adoption. Then get your tubes tied and practice safe sex, so you two won't have anymore unplanned pregnancies.

Idk why people are saying "YDI". Nothing can prevent pregnancy 100%, even in combination with another form of protection. Anyway, there are plenty of nice couples who can't have their own children and would be happy to adopt your baby.

I don't blame you OP for not wanting kids. I hate them too. They're annoying, loud, filthy, needy, messy, and a huge financial burden. I never want that. Ever.
soulreaper12296 28
Then don't be an idiot like OP and have unprotected sex.
meegal 12
Oh don't worry I never do. Don't want to risk it. But even still nothing is 100%. Condoms and other contraceptive methods are cheaper than abortions so they're the cheaper choice but either of those are cheaper than raising a little parasite. I don't even want to think about how much it costs to raise a kid. Thousands and thousands a year. I would't be surprised if it's that much. Then you can say goodbye to any me time. They're so needy and constantly want attention or need you to do something. It's like no leave me alone daddy doesn't want to be bothered. Crying in the middle of the night waking you up when you have work in the morning. I've slept in houses with small children and it's always so annoying. They wake up way too early and are way too loud. I hate it when they check if you're awake or not. I'm awake when I get out of bed, you don't need to come into the room to see.

I absolutely agree with you. Most of the people I know are shocked that I don't want kids and are constantly trying to change my mind about it (even though I'm only 21). It's so damn annoying. I get judged for never having wanted kids. And in reply to #9 (I think), all contraceptive methods fail, and women have different symptoms, or even none at all, during the first trimester
meegal 12
I'm 22 and don't think i'll ever want that kind of financial burden or annoyance. Kids are just so... needy. Like I have 2 brothers. I'd be ok with being an uncle as long as I don't take the kid home at the end of the day. Show up for a birthday and visit them and stuff but I can leave if I want to. If you're a parent you can't get away. You will never be alone for too long.

I have a two year old boy and I'm pregnant with my second baby. My son is very independent and most of the time won't accept help when doing simple task and yes children r messy but they can be taught to clean up after themselves and most children sleep through the night after a certain age (unless they have a bad dream) and they don't cost no more then u do once they're out of diapers
GloUp_fml 18
As an adopted child myself, I'd agree with everyone that says adoption. I can't imagine being with my parents who didn't want me. Do what's right, OP.

Who the hell hates kids? I used to be just like you. Always made an excuse to not have kids. But one day the same thing happened to me. Too far past for an abortion and the next thing you know I was cutting that umbilical cord and I'm super daddy. There's nothing I wouldn't do for my daughter (she's 7 now). She has made me who I am today. My business has more than tripled, my social life is so much better now. I tear up thinking if anything were to happen to her. That little girl defines me. Perhaps it will affect you the same way. Don't go into this with regret and hatred we don't need another kid like you in this world. Show it love, compassion, benefit of the doubt. It'll make you a better person as well as your relationship with your sex partner. Without kids that's all he/she is

Don't put the kid up for adoption 9 times out of 10 that kid will grow up with regret and abandonment issues. Her step dad will have to be pulling her off the gold pole at 18

WTF is wrong with you?
fakedsincerity 32
Wow. What a piece of shit generalisation.
GamerMom392 19
Well, aren't you a heartless bitch? "Woe is me! It's too late to murder my baby!"
Kitouran 30
...It's not murder until the kid is born, sweetie.
fakedsincerity 32
Oh please. Abortion isn't murder, no more than a tumour is murder. Under 24 weeks a foetus is NOT a baby. It's a group of cells. Keep your preachy anti-choice bullshit away from here.

Okay, tubal ligation without children is hard to get. I have a baby (emergency c-section) and the doctor wouldn't perform one. Also, I didn't notice I was pregnant until I was 2.5 months. I didn't get regular periods, no weight gain, and the other symptoms were normal for my rare periods. FYL, OP.
AtomicLondon 8
I am going to agree with #36 in assuming you were probably using a birth control method that eliminates periods. That being said, I am truly sorry for your plight. I don't understand why people get their knickers in a twist when someone says they don't want children. That is Your decision. Whether you keep the child, or give it up for adoption, you need to do what you feel is best for you and that kid. If you don't feel as if you'd be a good parent, you owe it to the both of you to consider giving it to someone who truly wants it. Best of luck, OP
