I'm not really pregnant
- 128 Replies
I don't know how this has gotten so out of hand. My husband and I have been trying for over a year. I've been taking some magic little pills to help things along for the past 4 months. I had a miscarriage 2 months ago.
Two weeks ago I was excited to tell my husband that I bought his favorite ice cream and I came up to him all smiles and said "guess what?"
He grabbed me and hugged me. He was so happy, because he assumed we were pregnant again. I don't know what came over me but I said that I was. I think I was secretly hoping that in a few days when I went to test, I actually would be, but I'm not.
We said we weren't going to tell anyone yet, but he blabbed to a couple of my friends husbands and now we are supposed to be telling our family on valentine's day.
How did I let it get so out of hand. I didn't mean to lie and I didn't know it would get so big so fast. I told him that we have an appointment next week for an ultrasound.
Do I just fake another miscarriage at this point? I really don't know what else to do to save face.
I do not think that faking a miscarriage is the right thing to do. I never said I did. I was merely pointing out that the whole unfortunate situation was not started maliciously, but because she loves her husband so much. She is not some monster. She is a human who made a mistake, which she is now trying to remedy. No, faking a miscarriage is not the answer, but she is obviously very upset and desperate, and therefore not thinking all that clearly.

No, a woman who would actually rather fake a miscarriage and lie than tell the truth to her husband. You and OP sound like a match made in heaven. Pathetic.
Quoting SLMitchell:"What he's married to"? You mean a woman who would rather experience all this inner turmoil than break her husband's heart after he assumed her good news was that she is pregnant?

Your poor husband. He has no idea what he's married to.

Quoting Anonymous:you know what? Thank you. I was beginning to think that no one understood at all and that I'm some kind of a monster. We have been trying and trying. His eyes were sparkling at that moment, how could I tell him it was just ice cream? I would never want to hurt him, never.
