Today, my fiancé decided he wants a baby only because our dog is good, quiet, and falls asleep as soon as he starts to cradle her. He thinks a baby will be just like that. FML

Today, my husband and I found out that our dog was pregnant. He now refuses to have kids with me for at least two years, because he wants to raise the puppies without any "distractions". FML

Today, I was talking with my wife of five years, and I gave her a few hints about wanting kids. After our talk, she looked at me completely serious and said, "Yeah yeah, kids are great and all, but can't we just get you a dog?" FML

Today, my fiancé, my two-year-old, and my dog are all sleeping peacefully next to me in our new king-sized memory foam bed. It's 2:15 in the morning. Why am I not sleeping? Because they all snore, one right after the other. It's like an endless song of snoring. FML

Today, I realized my boyfriend rather qualifies as a pet: He loves eating, he hardly ever talks or listens, but he is cuddly, always enjoys having me around and can – within limits - be trained to do useful things. FML

Today, my husband compared me to his parents' dog. Why? Because when I sleep, I fart and scare myself awake. Just like his parents' dog. FML

Today, I woke up, rolled over, and kissed the boy who was peacefully sleeping next to me, cheerfully saying, "Good morning, baby!" That boy is my dog. FML

Today, after months of my fiancé begging me to have a baby with him, I found out I’m pregnant. He doesn’t want a baby anymore. FML

Today, like every other day my boyfriend and I try and have sex, his dog cried and whined outside of his room until we stopped. She does this all the time and it kills the mood instantly. I can't have sex because of a toy poodle. FML

Today, I awoke in bed with my boyfriend and his dog. After some pushing and prodding, I thought my boyfriend was trying to move the dog out of the way to cuddle with me. It turns out, he was moving the dog closer to him. My boyfriend would rather spoon with his dog than me. FML

Speaking from experience, he'll be sorry for assuming a baby will be like a pet. I was very disappointed when my baby daughter was unwilling to use a litter box.

Give him one of those realistic dolls that shit, cry, scream, and pee. He'll change his mind.

Suggestion to find a friend with children already, the younger the better, and have him babysit for a short while. I'm sure the illusion will vanish soon enough.

Some babies are more laid back than others. Mine screamed nonstop for hours at a time (colic) in the middle of the night, and made me want to curl into a ball and die. Others like my brother in law was so quiet and calm. He slept alot and even had to be woken up to eat and have his diapers chnged.

Get him one of those babies you get in high school to take care of for health. He'll regret it after that

people need to stop thinking about what having babies is like and start thinking what having children is like. you have a baby for like 30 seconds. you have a child for a lifetime

If your baby turns into a toddler "like 30 seconds" after being born, I advise you find medical assistance, because (s)he is likely to have a sincere case of progeria.

You and your fiance need to find a friend with a baby and offer to babysit for a weekend. He'll surely change his tune that it's as easy as caring for a dog!

You never know! My baby was just like that... She never cried as a newborn.... Our friends used to want to strangle us because of how damned lucky we are!
