Today, I asked my mom if she could include mashed potatoes and gravy with dinner. She then went on to yell at me about my "unhealthy eating habits" and how I've "gained a lot of weight in the past few months". I'm pregnant. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my morbidly obese mother gave me an angry lecture at dinner, saying without any trace of irony that my vegetarian diet is "unhealthy and utterly unacceptable". FML
Today, I called my mom into my room to ask her to bring me something. She referred to me as a "lazy fat slug." I'm 38 weeks pregnant and was put on emergency bedrest by my doctor. FML
Today, my mum was saying she needs to gain weight because she was underweight according to her doctor. She then said she's going to eat like me in order to gain more weight. FML
Today, I told my mom that I’m pregnant. She said I could use it as an opportunity to “trim down.” I’m 130lbs and muscular. FML
Today, I tried to nicely talk to my daughter about her rapid weight gain. Having a family history of weight-related illness, I felt it was necessary. I offered to get thyroid tests, teach her to buy healthy food, and start routine exercise. She told everyone I called her a cow and had fat-shamed her. FML
Today, while at my mom’s house, my mom told me that I need to seriously curb my food intake. Then I went to my dad’s house and he told me I need to gain weight. I can’t win here. FML
Today, I felt sick to my stomach, so I told my mother I didn't want to eat dinner. She started accusing me of being anorexic, so I ate a little bit anyway to make her stop. I then threw up, only for her to take it as confirmation that I have an eating disorder. FML
Today, my mom asked me if I had an eating problem because I've been eating less. I only started eating less because she told me I ate too much. FML
Today, my husband wants me to apologize for getting angry when his father told me I'm getting so fat that I look like a whale. I'm not fat, I'm just 8 months pregnant. FML
Today, my mother told me I've gained so much weight recently, she thinks I should get gastric bypass surgery. FML

That poor child is going to be born into a wacky, misspelled world. Do have someone proofread the birth certificate. Sandra might not appreciate spending her days as Sandman.

How the hell would she misspell Sandra to Sandman you idiot

You shouldn't eat unhealthy when you're pregnant. A lot of women think they can eat anything just cause they're pregnant.

When did mashed potatoes and gravy become "eating anything"? I like mashed potatoes, and I don't have a bun in the oven to go with it.

Although true, you should still eat healthly when pregnant, you do need to change your eating habits. For example eating between 500 and 1000 calories more a day (depending on where in your pregnancy you are) eating food that is high in slow release carbohydrates (such as potatoes) and eating more regularly throughout the day. All of these could be seen as unhealthy eating habits if someone did not know you were pregnant! Also, yes it's very amusing that someone misspelt something, can we all just move on now please? It was funny the first time you mentioned it, now it's just tedious.

mashed potatoes aren't unhealthy, and neither is gravy

Be careful there - nobody will care while you are pregnant, but afterwards all the food you didn't need will have been converted to fat and given you stretch marks. Even with a strict diet and lots of exercise you may never get your figure back after that. There'll still be lots of flabby skin, even after you've lost all the weight. My wife was very careful and looked fabulous again, a few months after giving birth. I've seen some others who thought they could eat what they want, and will never feel comfortable in a swimsuit again. I think that's quite tough for a woman. On the plus side: breast-feeding is an excellent dieting aid. You have to watch what you eat there, too (need to absorb all the nutrients so the baby can get them too) but weight-loss is basically automatic.

If you're old enough to get pregnant, you're old enough to live on your own and make your own dinner.
