Today, my doctor told me I'm pregnant. Since we've been trying for several years, I called my husband to tell him the good news. Not long after, my doctor called to inform me there'd been a clerical mix-up and I'm not actually pregnant after all. FML

Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, I found out my husband has been telling everyone he doesn't want a baby. He has been telling me he does. We have been trying for months. I'm now pregnant and confused. FML
Today, I found out that I'm not actually pregnant. I've apparently been having a hysterical pregnancy because I want a child so badly. I don't know which was worse, the look of relief on my husband's face or having to send a mass email to inform my family and friends. FML
Today, I found out my husband is having a baby. Too bad I'm not pregnant. FML
Today, I went to the doctor, because I've been having stomach pains and nausea for weeks. He ended up gravely telling me I'm pregnant. I freaked out and panicked about what my parents would say. Then his laughter reminded me that I'm a guy. A really stupid one. FML
Today, I received several texts congratulating me on my pregnancy. It turns out that my husband announced he is going to be a father on Facebook, which I don't use. I'm not pregnant. FML
Today, I finally had my doctor's appointment to get my tubes tied. I've been waiting for 2 years. Instead, I found out that my birth control failed and I'm pregnant. FML
Today, my husband rushed me to the hospital, and we were told that I'd had a miscarriage. Neither of us knew I was pregnant. FML
Today, my husband and I did artificial insemination. At the hospital, they mixed up the sperm and didn't realize until it was too late. I'm now pregnant with a stranger's baby. FML
Today, I was at the doctors office after throwing up for the past week. My diagnosis? Apparently I'm the first pregnant man. After several minutes of me freaking out and him explaining how it was possible, he told me he was joking and that I'm fine, but my reaction was the best thus far. FML
Today, after years of trying, I got the wonderful news that my husband is going to be a father. Too bad I’m not the mother. FML

That's unfortunate. One of the few actual FMLs that are really sad. Keep trying!

Keep trying! We tried for 5 years and I had just given up last year, but didn't know I was already pregnant! We were just gonna look into IVF when I told my husband to wait as I felt sick every day. A week later we found out! Now we have a beautiful 8 month old preemie :P I ended up delivering early and now I'm thankful it took 5 years, I don't think I could have handled things as well as I did if I was 19 or 20 with a preemie.

That sucks. Why not grab some Sushi with Bourbon? Enjoy life with your husband, that baby will come.

Unacceptable. You should contact the governing body like the College of Physicians and make a complaint. What if this had been serious blood work or results for a very serious test. No excuse for that in a doctors office.

I know someone that tried and tried for years. She got pregnant and had a miscarriage, I can't even imagine the heartbreak she felt. She has twin girls now. Don't lose hope, always have faith.

I am so sorry to read this. I can not imagine how you are feeling. I truly hope you and your husband are able to have a baby one day. It is truly sad that all these junkies and people who hate kids can get pregnant so easily, but the ones who truly want to be parents its almost impossible at times. My heart goes out to you.
