Today, I went shopping at a thrift store. I found a really cute top that fit me perfectly, so I bought it. Afterwards, I noticed the original tag was still on it. It read: "designed with your pregnancy in mind". It was a maternity top. FML

Last call, bad decisions and 3 a.m. texts you'll regret until noon. Cheers.
Today, I finally found a cute dress that hugged my curves and hid my imperfections. I wore it to my friend's house, and was feeling pretty good about myself, until some pregnant woman walked into the room wearing the exact same thing. It was a maternity dress. FML
Today, I went to a thrift store and found heaps of clothes that I loved that fit me perfectly. Then I found a special distinctive dress. My dress. My dad had thrown away heaps of my clothes and I had to buy them all back. FML

Today, I was carrying some bags out of a store, and my shirt had scooted up a little. I had no free hands, so I ignored it. A woman stopped me to tell me that bare midriffs are only attractive on skinny girls, "not fat ones." I'm 6 months pregnant. FML
Today, my mother asked a woman at the clothing store we go to all the time when her baby was due. Turns out the woman isn't pregnant. FML
Today, I went to Seattle with my mom to visit my pregnant sister, only to end up being dragged to a store to buy maternity clothes. The saleswoman apologized to me repeatedly for not having a lounge for the fathers, but congratulated me on the baby. I'm a girl. FML
Today, while shopping in the FML store I bought the "Retro Sport Tee," I didn't notice you are supposed to put your own "FML" on the shirt. Mine says "Today, Your Text Here. FML." FML
Today, I was at Target trying on swimsuits. I tried on a medium bottom and was so excited because it fit perfectly even though I've gained a few pounds. My self-esteem was at an all-time high until my mom told me I could never fit into a medium. I rechecked the tag. It was an extra large. FML
Today, I wore a beautiful new dress that I got for £5 only in a sale. I've been turning heads in it all day. When I got home, my mum pulled the massive red £5 tag off of the back. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

So what if it's a maternity top? Some Maternity tops are actually pretty cute and you would never think they are what they are because they don't look like it.

Ok seriously people, you never know why it fit her that well. I've ended up buying maternity tops before simply because they give more room in the boob area without having to get a size that's way too big and hangs like a dress.

The OP could be skinny for all you idiots know. I've tried on maternity tops and dresses just for fun and most of them are just loose fitting and stretchy, but they fit. And I'm certainly not fat. Obviously though, they were made for expecting mothers, but, given the right size, they can fit everyone. Big belly, small belly, big boobs, small boobs, anything. They've got it. So shut up about the fat comments or reading the FML as if the OP just realized they're fat. Nobody else can tell it's a maternity top, and even you didn't notice. If it's skin tight, there might be a problem, but if you're thinking of "fitting perfectly" as in it actually fits your body comfortably, then you're fine. However, OP, if you're taking this as a sign of 'you're fat' then please don't lie and say it was the shirt that made you realize this. You already knew. But also, don't they cut off the tags at thrift stores? They do here. It's supposed to be like a rule.

All of the fat defenders banging on about "oooh thyroid problems bla bla bla". WE KNOW there are other explanations for being fat. However, its common knowledge that the majority of fatties are that way because they can't be arsed to put the choc down and get off their lardarses.

Seriously, lots of maternity clothes are adorably cute. Plus, a lot of them fit women with big boobs more comfortably. No shame in a maternity top really.
