Today, I went into labor with my first child, and as much as I pleaded, I had to wait for my husband to finish his raid in World of Warcraft before he'd take me to the hospital. FML

Autumn: Leaves and Laughter
When the leaves fall, the laughter rises. Discover autumn stories as crisp as dried leaves!
Today, I went into labor and got my husband drive me to the hospital. Instead of staying by my side, he rushed back home for a World of Warcraft raid. His excuse? His friends were counting on him and they'd be pissed if he let them down. FML
Today, during the birth of my first child, my epidural didn't work. FML
Today, I gave birth to a baby girl. Where was my husband after the agony finally ended? Standing just outside the room, flirting with a nurse. FML
Today, I gave birth to my first son. He was 11 pounds and the labour lasted 22 hours. My husband was absent for 8 of those hours because he slipped when my water broke, cracked his head, and ended up in the ER next door. FML
Today, I gave birth to my firstborn child. Somehow, my mom and mother-in-law made their way to the delivery room, and walked in mid-push. While they were escorted out, I overheard my mother-in-law asking the nurse how her son, my husband, was holding up. FML
Today, I went into labor, and my husband wasn't answering his phone. I called my sister to ask her to drive me to the hospital but she said she'd only do it if I paid her $1000. I had to dial 911, and almost gave birth in my bathroom in process. FML
Today, I gave birth, but my husband was late and got here just in time to cut the cord. He was hung over after celebrating his impending fatherhood all night. He missed the cord twice, cut it, then fell over, and wound up in the bed next to mine, with a hydrating IV and a bashed head where he hit it on the baby's cot. FML
Today, I realized that my husband has a video games addiction. I am currently pregnant; he brought us to the same country he's in so we can finally live together, only for me to witness him being glued to his laptop all day and all night playing WoW. He's forgotten I even existed. FML
Today, my wife's water broke so I drove her to the hospital. After 16 hours without labor, I went home to get a little sleep. Four hours later I got the call and ran outside to find that my car was towed from my parking space. FML
Today, I had to explain to my son that his dad was too busy in a raid on World of Warcraft to be at his award ceremony. FML

Seriously!?!? After this action, you should reconsider the relationship w/your husband. You and your child are not his priority so don't be surprise if he walks out on you in the near future.

free sterilization should come with all WOW subscriptions. I sympathize for you and your child.

...and those of us with kids know that they say there's no need to rush to the hospital once you go into labor, if you were in that much of a hurry you could have hailed a cab. Seriously when I went into labor my husband was stuck in traffic for over an hour...still made it to the hospital with 32 hours to spare
duhhhhhhh 4
its about his priorities, not about the length of labor.

This made me shoot Dr. Pepper out my nose! Thank you, for your humorous comment, and damn you, for it being morally and ethically despicable!

Your husband needs to get his priorities in check, and then get a life.

if your husband won't take you to the hospital, you could call 911 to take you.

Bullshit, a woman who is heartbroken about her husband ignoring her while in labor wouldn't immediately go blab about it on FMYLIFE, after the hormone roller-coaster she'd either file for divorce on the spot or break his head open with a sledgehammer. What she wouldn't do, is sit on a pc and write about it. That's JUST as bad as playing an online game.

Bearing in mind we don't actually know when it happened. The 'today' format is just a format, it could have happened a while ago and she thought it would make a good one.
