News to me

By annoyed - This FML is from back in 2012 but it's good stuff - United States - Houston

Today, my mother texted me that she was in labor. She never told me she was pregnant. Apparently she's engaged too. FML

I didn't know fetuses could have cell phones in utero, and know how to work them. Kids, today!! You need to come out into the world, so be a good baby and help Mama push you out!

Put the bong down and come back to reality Perdix! You're not making any sense!

I think he's saying op is the baby?

YDI for not visiting your mother enough!

That makes no sense. OP could live several states away from her mother.

don't feel bad op, nobody keeps me in the loop either

At least it was your mom and not your wife!

Op, feel your pain. Recently learned my ex sister in law got remarried and is 7 months pregnant. My neice's and nephew learned this days before me. No hey there or anything. So while I am surprised, these kids are floored. Bad mom, bad bad ignorant mother!

You know, there is a "submit" button so that you can post your stories on FML. Commenting is for... Well commenting on an FML. Just letting you know since it doesn't look like you know the difference.

Except that they were commenting on the FML, hence the "I feel your pain OP" then the semi-relevant story. Just letting you know since you don't seem to know the difference.

Why would your ex sister in law tell you anything??

If you live with your mom, it's fairly obvious. If you don't, then I'm sorry OP.

It was your birthday and Christmas present all wrapped up in one!

I don't feel sorry for u. Why havnt you see your mother in 9 months anyway. She shouldn't tell u anything if u can't even take time to go see her

It's easy to hide a pregnancy. I saw my sister 2 or 3 times a week and never saw a hint of it. Neither did my mom, dad, my other sister, or anyone she worked with. Imagine our surprise when we got a call in the middle of the night saying that she was in the hospital having a baby.

In all fairness, may be she found out just now herself....
