Today, I woke up and went into my living room, only to be greeted by my aunt, sister, and mother watching a very graphic video showing women giving birth. They forced me to stay and watch it until the end. It was almost 90 minutes. FML
Collection
Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my mother posted a video of me giving birth, on Facebook. FML
Today, my brother let us know his wife was in labour. I rang him a few hours later to ask how it was going. I wasn’t expecting him to switch to video chat to show me “The Miracle.” I now know what my sister-in-law's vagina looks like in the middle of birth. FML
Today, I showed my girlfriend some old home videos of me as a kid. My dad must have taped over one though, because halfway through it cut to extremely graphic footage of his colonoscopy. FML
Today, while eating breakfast in a hotel lobby, the woman next to me started playing an obnoxious clip of a baby’s high-pitched crying. The worst part is that my parents refused to let me do anything about it or step away from the loud noise, as they thought it would “embarrass the whole family.” FML
Today, my entire family sat down in the living room to watch the video I recorded of my sister's graduation from college. I never pressed record. FML
Today, I was babysitting for my mom's coworkers two little boys. they went to bed around 9 and I was watching a movie on HBO. I fell asleep before the movie was over. I woke up to the parents walking into the house. I looked at the TV, and porn was on. FML
Today, I was watching TV with my grandpa, and he stopped flipping channels on a movie with a hot naked chick getting oiled down. Suddenly the remote landed on my stomach as my mom and grandma walked in. They yelled at me for being a pervert, while my grandpa sat and chuckled. FML
Today, I had to go to the hospital. While I was there, my mom started hitting on a doctor. Later I saw them making out in the room next to me. FML
Today, my sister ended punching my mother in the face. Blood just leaked everywhere and everything just went downhill. I'm so scared and traumatized from witnessing it. I can’t get the scene out of my head, can’t fall asleep, can’t stop crying, want to puke, want to yell. I just can’t anymore. FML
Today, I was watching a home video of when my mom was pregnant with me. She had a beer in her hand. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?

At least they prepared you for when your woman gives birth. That won't seem so bad then.

Forced? I don't know how old you are but it shouldn't matter. You should have got up and left, it's not like they tied you to a chair and held you at gun point... Right? I don't see the fml in this

What if they did? O.o

You fail to realize the power of peer pressure.

That's why you don't have sex. Because you WILL get pregnant and you WILL die. (Of mortification.)

Or they were preparing him to make sure he doesn't cause a woman to give birth.

C sections can look just as bad. It is classified as a surgery after all.
silencebabyy 23
c section is only for emergencies
HannahLouise96 13
You can choose to have a C-section (an elective C-section) but from what I've heard, recovery is much longer and more painful than from natural childbirth. My aunt had an elective C-section with her first child, but had a natural birth with her second. She says that with her 2nd child, she was up and moving around within hours, but was bed bound for a week after her C-section. It may differ from woman to woman, though.
annie_nk 23
If a baby is breech, a c section is needed. Not exactly an emergency. And my second baby was delivered caesarean. I recovered a LOT faster than with my first who was born vaginally. It all depends on the woman and how well the birth went.

C-sections are very painful. I've had two. But at least I can say that I'm not all stretched out down under..
FlowerMama 20
76 - Not everyone's c-section recoveries are the same. I had one with my first baby, and was in excruciating pain afterward, even with the pain medication. And no, breech presentation does not make a cesarean necessary; breech (such as frank breech, or buttocks first) is a variation of normal and was once performed quite commonly, before insurance companies decided they didn't want to deal with the "risks" posed by them and they prohibited their covered physicians from performing them in many cases, leading to more and more c-sections done, despite definite risks from that procedure. 89 - I had a vaginal birth with my second, and my husband and I both agree that the sex is better now than it ever was before. That line about getting "stretched out down there" is so old.

It's a very natural and beautiful thing; everyone should be educated and watch it!
Dracoboxer357 36
4- I agree with you, it is a natural and wonderful experience....or so I've been told, as both my boys were c-sections. Hoping the third one's the charm! :D I have watched a few videos, and I'm glad I did though, you can never have intel! ;)
Dracoboxer357 36
*Never have Enough intel. :p Moron moment....
AussieChild 22
Haha I knew what you meant :P

#4 its a natural and beautiful thing, yes. But not a beautiful sight..
monnanon 14
its a natural thing. beautiful it aint.
vcapelo 19
The graphic part is not beautiful at all!
Morticia_Addams 23
agreed
annie_nk 23
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. It means something different to everyone. I can see how women view it as beautiful (the whole miracle of life thing). I asked for a mirror for the birth of my first child. I wish I hadn't. So yeah, seeing a baby come out of a ****** isn't what I'd call beautiful. But the miracle of bringing a child into this world is.
gracehi 33
Oh, no, I would not want to watch myself giving birth as it happened. That's like watching the doctor stick the needle in your arm, but I bet it's a whole lot worse.
annie_nk 23
I'm a really curious person. And it is like watching a needle prick ya as in it is not pleasant to watch. I don't look when I get pricked so I had no idea what I was thinking asking for a mirror. Must have been the pain meds talking.

Oh no ita gross, I've delivered a baby at my job and all I can say is :O lol
SamanthaCassieL 10
That's when "I have to meet up with so and so at this place. Like now." Comes in handy. Lol
RpiesSPIES 27
Then your family strikes the excuse down because you have no friends making it a double dose of FML.
SamanthaCassieL 10
..yah.. That's what would happen to me haha

I've watched videos of people volunteering to do that. It almost looks like torture.
iiTzNeeNerz 26
At least they didn't make you watch a porno, OP.
MisterMichael 9
I'd rather watch a porno..
iiTzNeeNerz 26
With your aunt, sister and mother in the room? I would hope not. LoL & I was making a reference to another FML.
CrissyyyS2 22
I had to watch that for Parenting and Human Sex Ed classes in high school. If you ever take those classes... you'll be one step ahead of everyone?
vcapelo 19
It's funny how you can get a parkantens class in the US. I understand the sex education but the parenting seem a little extreme!

Did they hold you down or something?

So, do you still think that getting kicked in the balls is more painful?
Dracoboxer357 36
13- Point for you, Princess. ;) However, if getting kicked in the nuts lasted for 2 or 3 days at the same initial intensity, we'd have a fairer comparison. ;P
jgriff79 23
After some time a woman wants another child. A man never wants kicked in the balls again!
Shrike 24
People still use that incredibly flawed argument, really?
annie_nk 23
#58 because a normal and healthy childbirth results in a new life. A kick in the balls results in just pain.
Jirekianu2 19
Kidney stones can be more painful and last longer. Believe it or not there are more painful things out there than child birth. I'd also say a kick to the balls is more painful if a ******** gets ruptured. Which is very possible.
toooldforthis 19
#65 women can get kidney stones too. And I'm sure a ruptured nut doesn't feel well, but neither does a torn ******
