Today, while tearfully telling my closest friends that I had miscarried my first pregnancy, the first thing out of their mouths was, "So, does this mean you're going to start drinking with us again?" FML

Today, I had to break the news to my husband that I had miscarried our first child, to which he replied, "Thank God!" and told me he wanted a divorce. FML
Today, I bumped into an old school friend. I'd heard she was pregnant so the first thing I did was congratulate her. Not only was she not pregnant, but the reason she managed to get so fat was because of comfort eating due to her miscarriage last month. FML
Today, I excitedly told my best friends I was pregnant. Their responses were, "Ewww, I hate babies", "So we're not getting brunch anymore? That sucks" and "Do you need an abortion? I know a great clinic." Not one of them congratulated me. FML
Today, after telling my mother-in-law about my recent miscarriage, she cheerfully made a cake to celebrate. FML
Today, my husband and I announced our upcoming divorce. My friends told me how sorry they were and that they're available for whatever I need. His friends told him to just call the girl from last weekend and get himself laid again. FML
Today, I had dinner with three friends to forget about the painful break up with my boyfriend. The first friend announced that she and her boyfriend had just bought a house, the second one that he was no longer single, and the third one revealed that she was pregnant. FML
Today, my family attended the funeral of an old family friend's baby, who died in childbirth. Afterwards, my husband went around snickering and quietly telling dead baby jokes to the other attendees. FML
Today, my dad took me to a bar for my first legal drink. He quickly got "drunk" and started slurring that I was an accident, saying the only reason I'm alive is because he'd been too poor to pay for an abortion. As I started crying, he burst out laughing and said soberly, "Just kidding, son." FML
Today, I had a miscarriage. My partner doesn't understand why I'm upset, saying, "It wasn't even a real baby yet." FML
Today, my mom came home heavily drunk. As I was taking care of her, she told me all about how I was a mistake. That didn't hurt nearly as much as when she told me she wishes I'd died during her pregnancy. FML

I'm really surprised that people on here assume that's what 'friends' do. A true friend will stick with you through thick or thin. There will always be people surrounding you but the moment the crap hits the fan you truly know whose got your back. Nothing will ever replace a child I know that for a fact. But be strong, OP, the pain never really goes away but with time its manageable.

well your friends could either be assholes or trying to get your mind off it. after my husband and I had our first miscarriage some of my friends took me out as a pick me up kind of thing but now after our 3rd no one knows what to say. most just blurt out some random thought to change the subject. oh and try not to get pregnant again for a while. you and your body both need time to heal. good luck.

Give your friends a break. Yes, they should have been nicer to you considering you were upset, but they're just pleased you're not becoming a boring, baby-obsessed excuse for a woman just yet. If they used to like drinking with you it was probably because you were fun to be around. Mothers are not fun to be around, they're just moos. They're glad to have thier friend back, instead of being stuck with some whiny, placenta obsessed moron who talks about nothing except her new bratlings fecal matter.

Ok so she just shouldn't have kids because that would give her less time for her friends! Of course! Duh. Why didn't I think if that? It's so selfish of her to want a child! Her life should totally revolve around her friends. I'm being sarcastic if you couldn't tell. Judging by your comment I figured you would have trouble realizing that. I'm assuming from your comment you're what? 14? 15 perhaps? Probably much older with a very low maturity level. I'm sure you aren't married and you definitely don't have kids. Not everyone wants to be a loser party animal their whole life. Some of us want to move on with our lives. Also, being a mother only makes you boring if you let it. I have a shit ton of friends and I go out a lot. not all moms talk about their lids 24/7. Anyway, I'd rather be a boring mom then a cold, heartless, shit for brains, retard like you. Please, help out society and never ever have kids :)

at 194 youre a dumbass. mom arent boring and they arent morons and all the other shit you said. shut the **** up, and grow up. to 201 by you saying that 194 is 14 or 15 is stereotypical. not all 14 yr olds are dumbass and immature. im 14 and totally disagree with 194.

Not that it's any of your business, but yes, I am married. I don't have kids, because my husband and I are responsible adults who don't believe in contributing to overpopulation, and we consider kids to be messy, annoying and tedious. We have a lot of friends and a very active social life, which does not include any parents because yes, they are boring. Incredibly boring. Implying that you are oh-so-mature because you have a few kids just shows how unfulfilled and bitter they've really made you. You may think you have a "shit ton" of friends, but I guaruntee they only tolerate you out of sympathy. You ARE boring, I can tell already. And so can they.

At 14, your opinion means nothing. You are not capable of forming an opinion about anything more complex than whether you are "team Edward" or "team Jacob". And for the record, having kids is the ultimate act of selfishness. A miscarriage is a blessing.

You do know that you're ignorant, correct? I know it's a stupid question to ask, because the answer is so clearly obvious, but I'm giving you the benefit of the doubt here. I would appreciate an answer.

I truly hope that you are a troll. It's great that you and your husband have reached an agreement that you two won't have children, but kindly keep your obvious offensive views to yourself and respect someone's choice if they do. Yes, there are some women out there that go though having children for selfish reasons, but to go as far to say a miscarriage is a blessing? That statement is just plain sickening and incredibly ignorant. Are you saying that on some level, you wish you hadn't been born? Or your husband? Your mother? It's incredibly selfish of you to wish that all these people, including those who haven't been born yet, should never have existed. Pregnancy is a miracle and a true blessing. That's what sex was intended for you know, to make children. Overpopulation may be a problem, but so is being blatantly ignorant and hateful.
