Today, I corrected my mom in front of our family while she was ragging on my 12 year old cousin who got a piercing. She said, "You don't understand you don't have kids, but on the other hand you probably never will!" I have Polycystic ovary syndrome, she is right, I probably never will. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Same thing different taste
Support system
Today, I was diagnosed with polycystic ovaries and confided in my mom, after being told I would have trouble having kids. Five minutes later, I hear the whole family laughing about it downstairs. FML
Today, in front of the entire family, I yelled at my mom and told her she wasn't a good parent. She responded with, "Well, at least I had friends when I was your age." FML
Today, my mother accused me of getting another lip piercing done on the sly to spite her. She finally realised I have more than one and won't believe I've always had two. Thanks for noticing, mom. FML
Devil parents
Today, my mother-in-law said: "People who don't have kids are children of the devil." I'm infertile, she knows this. FML
Revelations
Today, I told my mom I was thinking of having a baby. She told me it was a huge mistake because children cost a fortune, make you miserable, and if she'd had her chance again she would have gotten her tubes tied when she was 18 and saved herself the grief. Gee, thanks mom. FML
Today, I asked my mum why she never had any children after me. She scoffed and asked if I've looked in a mirror lately. FML
Sensitive
Today, my mom had to go off on my grandmother because I don’t have kids yet and she, "wants great grand babies before she dies." My grandmother was going to gift me a baby outfit for me to get another hint. I’m 25 and can’t conceive because of health issues. I may never have my own kids. She knows. FML
Under pressure
Today, my mom asked me out of the blue if I was ever going to consider getting married. It wasn't until after the conversation ended that I remembered my siblings are all either single like I am, or incapable of having children. I am my mother's last hope of becoming a grandma, and she reminds me all the time. FML
Supportive
Today, once again, my mom ranted about how she sacrificed so much for me by moving to a better city. I said it was for my education and to stop making me feel like a burden. She scoffed, "Right, you never should've been born. My mistake." FML
Vessels
Today, my mom bitched me out for still being single at age 19, and still not having started a family. She considers this "immoral," yet showed nothing but praise for my sister, who's pregnant at 15 and doesn't know which of three guys is the father. FML

Wow, that syndrome sounds AWESOME! Have as much sex as you want and you'll never get pregnant.

YDI. That's what you get for budding in. Bet it shut you up. MOM WIN! Your sister needs to learn to hold her own anyway. #113- You Fail.

I'm 19 and got diagnosed with PCOS when i was 12 and have been on treatment since then. I have a severe case but the doctors and specialists have told me that I can fall pregnant one day :) You just need to find a good specialist to guide you through this, and anything is possible! :)

I have PCOS also. And thanks to fertility treatments, I also have gorgeous 2 and a half year old twins. My heart is with you. And your mom sucks. :(

having a physical disorder that prohibits you from bearing children in no way should stop you from becoming a parent if you choose to. Adoption being the obvious choice. your mom is an unbelievable bitch. but it's usually considered rude to correct someone in front of others, especially an elder. seems to me that your uterus works and you may be able to harvest eggs and have them implanted. if not, then a donor. good luck.

I'm sorry that you have a mom who would make a remark about something like that! It must be tough to know you probably won't have any biological children (unless your uterus is ok, then there's invitro, but thats still very expensive, I hear) because it means a lot to most women.. I know it does to me... of course, you could always adopt :3 Sorry about how off topic this is getting. You shouldv'e called your mom out on that. She shouldn't have said that, and in front of the family too D:<

This is a dumb FML. Almost 1 in 10 women have PCOS, and out of those about 95% can still have children. I have it myself, I'm not worried. Fertility drugs work wonders :P bitch move for your mom to say that though.

I, too have PCOS and was unable to get pregnant. I saw a specialist and he gave me the first fertility drug they like to start out with (clomid) and I concieved that month. I got pregnant the next time with no fertility drugs whatsoever. It's entirely possible.
