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

Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
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.

Damn the worst of luck! But since you're already too far for an abortion, don't keep the kid. It doesn't deserve a shitty ass life because neither of you want it. And i don't wanna hear none of that "we'll step up and keep it" bullshit because you know you won't. Adoption is your only choice.

I agree with putting baby up for adoption or even considering the safe haven laws of your area. However, be aware that you may well change your mind when you see your baby for the first time. Not everyone does, but it is a huge possibility. My boyfriend and I bonded and such over the fact that neither of us wanted kids. When we found out I was pregnant, we went for an abortion, only to be told (and shown!) that there were two little heartbeats. We ultimately decided against termination, and we did end up losing one baby (vanishing twin syndrome) about 14 weeks in, but when the other baby was born, we were happy, and now can't imagine life without him. Point is, consider all your options.

Safe haven is a last resort, it should only be used if the mother feels she has no other option.

Now you will bond over the fact you have a child. At least there is adoption

Good! Abortion is wrong. If you don't want children, take the proper precautions to not become pregnant

Comment removed because the one above it was too.

Whatever you do, just remember it's not your spawns fault. Having kids is hard work and not everyone is cut out for it. I imagine you may face pressure from family and friends making adoption awkward, but I don't know your situation taking me back to the first line. I never wanted kids, fell pregnant, changed life around to accommodate the situation then they died in my stomach and my life was a mess for three years till I fell pregnant with my son now 5. The hormones and experience of miscarriage changed my mind. I'm pro choice for others, but not myself. But if I ever see two lines on a stick again - I'm going to have a serious dilemma. I feel for you, but I feel for the kid more.

Would you like it if OP told you you were "lucky" to be infertile because they wish they could be? Other peoples' life-derailing problems aren't about you and your personal problems, and it's not a contest.

I understand that sometimes unwanted pregnancies do happen even when you've done everything you can, but 9 times out of 10, it was because you really didn't do everything you could to prevent it. Even if you can't get your tubes tied, it is highly unlikely that you will become pregnant if you use the correct protection the correct way. My mother, as well as other family members, never even had a pregnancy scare when using the pill correctly. However, as soon as my mother decided she wanted to have me, and got off of the pills, she immediately became pregnant, so it wasn't a fertility issue. She and my dad had been married for 11 years and dated 12 years prior to their decision to have me. I am aware that yes, nothing is 100%, but unplanned pregnancies in which many measures to prevent the pregnancy in the first place were taken are extremely rare. Oh, and you have to take the pill every day for quite a while, not just every time you have sex.

YDI, you'd think you'd be more careful if you both hated children.

Trust me, because I was there. And your own kid does feel different. Now I can't say no to my son.
