Today, my girlfriend told me that she is pregnant. I asked how it could be possible, since she's on birth control. She said she didn't know her antibiotics would interfere with it. She's a pharmacist. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my girlfriend told me that she's pregnant. She'd told me she was on birth control, so I asked her to show me. She had been sticking the pills up her vagina like a suppository. FML
Today, I found out that even though my girlfriend is on the pill, and even though my girlfriend took emergency contraception, she became pregnant days after the first time we had sex without a condom. FML
Today, I found out that my girlfriend of five months is pregnant. Apparently, she stopped taking her pill two months ago because "we" wanted a baby. I don't recall ever having that discussion with her. FML
Today, I realised that when I asked my girlfriend four months ago if was she on the pill, she thought I meant hay fever tablets. I'm going to be a father. FML
Today, I found out the hard way that my girlfriend lied about being on the pill four months ago. FML
Today, my girlfriend told me that she feels pregnant. I didn't believe her, given how recently we had sex for the first time, so I told her to take a test to make sure. She's very sure now. FML
Today, my girlfriend told me she was pregnant. We haven't had sex yet. FML
Today, after my wife and I have been trying for a baby for 2 years, I found out she's still on the pill. Apparently when she was a teen she had bad period cramps, so her doctor gave her the pill for the pain. She never realized it stops pregnancy. FML
Today, my girlfriend came back from visiting her family. She'd forgotten to take her pills, and decided to "catch up" by taking almost a week's worth of birth control and prescription pills. She's fine, but I had to convince the ER staff that she's not suicidal, just stupid. FML
Today, I found out that I'm going to be a mother. This was a mystery, since I take birth control and use condoms all the time. Or, at least, it was, until my mother admitted to swapping my pills and poking holes in my condoms so she could have a grandchild before she died. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

Just because she's a pharmacist, doesn't means she's a good one.

Or she knew what would happen, and just wanted a baby

Birth control also is not 100% effective
Qwermy 16
however, at about 99.9% effective, it's pretty damn close (assuming the woman remembers to take it, and is NOT a dumbass taking antibiotics OP's girlfriend)

@118 uh, no, it's not 99% effective. Different methods/products of birth control act differently and have different levels of effectiveness. You can't just make blanket statements about a group like that.

Stop being so gullible, OP. A pharmacist's job and most of what they learn in their graduate schooling is which medications interact with each other and HOW they interact. She lied. She's either cheating, or wanted a baby and didn't want to tell you.

he is stuck interacting with her for at least the rest of his life, they don't necessarily need to stay together
Dynosaur_dollie 38
Technically if he wanted to be a real ass he doesn't even need to be stuck communicating with her for the rest of his life. Not the recommended option but it is still a possibility.

a lot of pharmacists don't know how certain things with react with others. they just measure out and sell the medicines.

Then they are a shitty pharmacist... Their job is to know the different interactions between the medications, not just to give them out...

#39 if a nurse needs to know what drugs will interact with what, then a pharmacist most definitely needs to know about interactions.
SammyS2012 21
They have to go to school to be a pharmacist. and there, they learn what drugs interact with what. that information is vital

Pharmacists actually have a better idea of what interacts with what than doctors, usually. It's usually the pharmacist that tells a person when a doctor has prescribed them two conflicting medications. That's part of their job. So yeah, as a pharmacist she should have known better.

In all actuality the pharmacist can know every prescription every single person takes especially when the average person taking the prescription doesn't even know Half the names of half the prescriptions they take. A pharmacist can only do so much. And many antibiotics don't interfere with birth control anymore and in all actuality it isn't even known how certain antibiotics react to prove birth control ineffective.

Her doctor would of told her that it was possible. She should be telling her customers that is it possible. You can't change the past, just remember to check the babies medication for suitability.

Hope all goes we'll.,,,

Well*

Sorry to say OP but i think she really wanted a baby.. and this whole antibiotic drama is just to convince you. This is a very common thing and evryone knw about this drug interaction..and she being a pharmacist must be knowing this well which she is using as a weapon to escape..
domolovesyoshi 33
i didn't know
JMichael 26
Not all pharmacists know every little detail about every little drug. But if she's taking antibiotics you'd at least thing she would have looks up the side effects and whatnot.

Aye aye aye that should have been think* not thing...-.-
