Today, I was woken up at 3:00 am to the sound of a tape recording of a baby crying, loudly. This has been going on for 3 nights, non stop. Why? because I brought up the subject of having a baby with my wife. Clearly, you can see where she stands. FML

For all of you saying "it's her choice" you're right but also realize thats this is a a major issue in a marriage and can lead to divorce. It's unfair for him to force her to become a mother and it's also unfair for her to expect him to spend the rest of his life without ever knowing what it's like to become a father (if he stays with her). Children don't suck, it's all in how you raise and discipline them.

Very smart woman. Very intellegent way to make her point. I hope you think about the point she is making. Babies are "No Refunds-No Returns".

Guys are supposed to b*itch slap the b*itch if they bring up the topic of having a baby. What a moron OP is to do the opposite. No one ever, ever on this site deserved it more than this OP. (Yup, you guessed it right, I am a father).

mart wife. she knows having children is a mistake.

that is a really ignorant and selfish comment to make. If it was a mistake to have children, humanity would die out. Maybe it's a mistake for YOU to have kids because you couldn't handle them. It's not a mistake for other people to have kids though.

This is hilarious, but yeah, FYL, man. I hope things can work for the best for you and your wife.

If the sound annoys you enough to post an FML, clearly you are not ready to be a father yet. Smart move on your wife's part!

You're an idiot. There is a difference between being woken up by a real child in need of attention, and a tape recorder because your wife is too immature to have an adult conversation. I think he's FML-ing the fact his wife needs to grow up, not the crying baby recording.

hmmm there was a killer who plays recordings of a crying baby and anyone who goes out to investigate gets slaughtered

Hah, I posted about that above -- except it's an urban legend, it didn't actually happen.

You deserve it for thinking you could go have a kid without having any bad consequences. The moment your wife gets pregnant she's going to be waking up at 3 am to puke, ever thought about that? And when the baby does pop out who's body will be the most affected? And when the baby does cry at three am. Who the hell do you think is going to have to get up and feed that thing? You're wife is smart. You're just dumb. Guys like you piss me off.

There was no indication the OP thought there wouldn't be any consequences. All it says is that he brought up the subject. Instead of talking about it like a suitable adult, the wife plays a recording of a crying baby? What you'll put up with depends on the magnitude of the situation. Taking care of a crying baby is one thing, getting up at 3am to turn off a recording is absurd. There's nothing wrong with wanting to expand your family especially if you're married. The wife is childish and needs to grow the **** up. Man hating dykes like you piss me off.

what the HELL? He pisses you off just because he wants a child? Does this mean men aren't allowed to want to have children? You're an idiot. And selfish to boot. If you don't want to have kids, that's fine, that's your decision. But you can't go round telling men they piss you off just because they want kids.

Babies are not huge burdens! I loved being pregnant. I also enjoy bonding with my child and taking care of her. I do not have any complaints. My body also recovered quickly after I gave birth. Consequences? Psh. Its all good. :) he wants a baby then he would prob help take care if it. You shouldn't be so quick to judge!

put on Jon and kate plus 8 then mabey shel want a kid those kids are so cute

Crying babies are frowned upon in Soviet Russia.
