00:00Was your kid an accident?

00:02Was my kid an a**hole?

00:03In the...

00:05That should have been a question.

00:06Yeah.

00:07Who was your kid?

00:12Was your kid an accident or plan?

00:14Ooh.

00:16Surprise.

00:17Ooh, she was an accident.

00:18So what happened was...

00:21I didn't know I was pregnant until six months in.

00:25I honestly thought I was very bloated.

00:28I was like, oh, ooh.

00:30So I went to the doctors.

00:31They were like, oh, congratulations, you're pregnant.

00:34I was like, yeah, fucking right.

00:36Huh?

00:37Wait a minute, what?

00:38I was supposed to have my period and I did not.

00:41Was your kid an accident?

00:42I found out when I was three months pregnant

00:44and I actually had two periods.

00:46Were you just spotting at that time?

00:48I know, full on five days.

00:50Wow.

00:51Yeah.

00:51By the time I found out, I was already four and a half months.

00:54So it was kind of like, shit, we're in it.

00:56And you find out when you start getting real big

00:59and it like, what's going on.

01:00Were your kids an accident?

01:02My eldest was, I say surprise.

01:05It was a surprise.

01:07It was a tequila baby, so.

01:09What do you mean by tequila baby?

01:11Um, laughing over there.

01:14I always used to joke and say tequila gets you pregnant.

01:17And I was, and then, you know, went to Mexico.

01:21I had kind of been drinking.

01:22There was some wine involved.

01:23We went to see a band.

01:25Like, you know, I'm turning back.

01:26You know what I'm saying?

01:27I didn't think like, oh.

01:29Kid was gonna come.

01:30Were your kids an accident?

01:31Oh my God, no.

01:32No, no, no, no, no.

01:33We really practiced.

01:35He was planned.

01:36Planned.

01:37There was a whole lot of planning.

01:38Mine were very much planned

01:39because we adopted all of our kids.

01:41It only took like two months.

01:43We tried for nine months.

01:45Every single month, I probably peed on like five pregnancy tests.

01:49I wanted this baby.

01:51Did you have your kid on purpose?

01:53I was devastated that I was pregnant.

01:55I was terrified.

01:56It was scary.

01:57I was pretty overwhelmed.

01:58Shit.

01:59I just didn't want one with who I was with at the time.

02:02Holy shit, I don't even know this guy.

02:04When I had her, I wasn't exactly at the best place mentally.

02:07I had just started my career.

02:09There was not a plan of having a third one.

02:13I was very depressed for probably all of my pregnancy.

02:18Like, what the hell's going on?

02:19Like, man, I'm never gonna have any freedom and stuff.

02:22You know, I'll never be free.

02:23I'm always gonna have kids.

02:24Did you plan on having your kids?

02:25My youngest is actually a failed abortion.

02:28I had a full blown surgical DNC with her.

02:31And so apparently they just nicked part of the yolk sac

02:34and completely missed her.

02:36And so she came out with all her fingers and toes

02:39and every body part.

02:40So that's good.

02:41Were you just like, should I go get another one?

02:44Me and the father were both like, this is meant to be.

02:47Tried to have a medical abortion

02:48because we were like, we got shit to do.

02:50It didn't fucking work.

02:51She's a fucking fighter is all I can say

02:53because I'm not going down.

02:56Were any of your kids accidents?

02:58Yeah.

02:59Yes.

03:00If it happens, it happens.

03:01And I'm not going to be mad if it happens.

03:03They were not planned, but not prevented.

03:07We didn't use any sort of protection.

03:09It was hard to stay six feet away from each other

03:11in a two room apartment.

03:13I probably won't even get pregnant.

03:14We were just going to kind of roll with it.

03:16So they were all happy accidents, but kind of planned.

03:20I don't know if that makes sense.

03:21Were your kids planned or an accident?

03:23My first one's like a prom night baby, so.

03:26Really?

03:27I got pregnant on spring break.

03:28That's so.

03:30I thought my parents are going to kill me.

03:33Woo.

03:34I was very young.

03:35I was 16 and homeless and a drug addict.

03:38I changed everything for her.

03:40When I first became a mom, I was a teen parent.

03:42It was the first time I had sex, so I was like, surprise.

03:45I'm really sick three weeks later.

03:47I don't know what's going on.

03:48My mom told me to go to the doctor.

03:50You're not eating.

03:51You're sick all the time.

03:52We set up like this whole plan on what kind of tests we were going to do and stuff.

03:55And then she came back like 30 minutes later and she was like, yeah, actually, you're pregnant.

04:01Oh.

04:02Yeah.

04:03I actually fainted.

04:04Oh, you really?

04:05Like for real?

04:06I really did.

04:07Yeah.

04:08Yeah.

04:09Because my dad was out in the waiting room.

04:10How did you tell them?

04:11I didn't.

04:12They got a letter in the mail from the insurance company.

04:15She wasn't planned by, yeah, she was planned by God.

04:17I had recently decided that I wanted to wait to have kids.

04:21And then my dad got diagnosed with a terminal illness two months after I found out I was

04:25pregnant.

04:26I found a journal entry I wrote during that time and I literally had written in there

04:31that I had no capacity for the pregnancy or for the baby because my dad being sick was

04:36taking everything from me.

04:38There was like a small window where it felt happy and then it was really hard.

04:42Is your kid an accident?

04:43No.

04:44He was planned.

04:45He was a woman.

04:46So she was very, very, very planned.

04:47I always imagined that I would grow up and have kids.

04:51All right.

04:52Done with the birth control.

04:53We knew that we had stable jobs and family to support us.

04:56We loved each other.

04:57We were ready for that next step.

04:58We planned her.

04:59I got pregnant and I was like one of the happiest times of my life.

05:02Did you plan to have your kids or were they accidents?

05:04My daughter was an accident.

05:05I found out I had a severe case of polycystic ovary syndrome and I was likely not going to

05:11be able to have kids.

05:12And then I was like, well, who cares about contraception?

05:14This is not going to happen.

05:15And then I had my daughter.

05:17And so after my daughter, I got an implant and intentionally took it out when I was ready

05:21to have my son.

05:22Both my husband and I were told that it would be extremely difficult for us to conceive.

05:26We were only married for two months before we conceived my first son.

05:30And then his other brother came really quickly after.

05:33So now we don't believe that anymore.

05:35Was your kid an accident?

05:37Literally, we got pregnant right after our wedding.

05:39On our honeymoon.

05:40A week after we got engaged.

05:41And we thought it would take longer than it did.

05:43We were like, oh, you know what?

05:45Let 2022 be the year that we try for a baby.

05:48New year baby.

05:51So you found out you were pregnant.

05:52My test popped up within 30 seconds and it was the Dollar Tree test.

05:55So when they tell you that the Dollar Tree test is the truth, they really are.

05:59They really work.

06:01And I looked down and I screamed.

06:03I immediately grabbed my best friend, took her into my office.

06:06And we looked down and I was like, oh, fuck.

06:09And just staring at it.

06:11I had tunnel vision.

06:12And I ran out of the clinic as fast as I could.

06:14And I threw the pregnancy test at my partner's head.

06:16Life changing.

06:18Were your kids planned or an accident?

06:20My oldest was planned and my second was a surprise.

06:23It's a happy accident.

06:24But they're still loved.

06:25And the shit they say is wild.

06:27Actually on my way here today, my son goes, mom, am I a reminder of you and dad having sex?

06:33And I'm like, where is this coming from?

06:36Yes.

06:37Did you plan on having your kid or was he an accident?

06:41My family thinks he was an accident, but he was planned.

06:44What do you mean?

06:45I was really, really nervous to tell my family.

06:48And so I was just like, I don't know how this happened.

06:51The birth control didn't work.

06:52No.

06:53Who's the first person you told outside of your partner?

06:55My dad was just, you know, this is what happens when you have unprotected sex.

07:00My grandma had recently passed and like a month before she passed, I walked in the room and she was like, you pregnant.

07:07And I was like, no, I'm not.

07:09Was your little poopy an accident?

07:11Yes.

07:12Oh, yeah.

07:13What was it like when you first found out you were pregnant?

07:15Oh, I know immediately.

07:16The next morning, I just felt physically different.

07:19I was at my sister's house.

07:21We had hot dogs, a red Gatorade, and I threw up all over her bathroom.

07:26Oh.

07:27Was your kid a happy surprise?

07:28Oh, yeah, of course.

07:29Because when I had my kids, I was 37 already.

07:33Me and her dad were already together.

07:35Looking back at the videos of like when we were like finding out, he didn't seem too excited.

07:39He seemed so scared.

07:40I'm like, babe, why do you look so scared?

07:43He's like, I was, but I didn't want to like say that.

07:46I wanted to keep the baby and I didn't know if that would be a deal breaker for him.

07:50I was more nervous because I was going to have to tell my husband, but I've had like that motherly instinct my whole life.

07:55What I can remember is that I was joyful, I was stressless.

07:59Amazing.

08:00Excited.

08:01More than anything, more than like the job that I have, more than any goal I could ever have, I wanted to be a mom.

08:06I had no problem, you know, with deciding whether or not to keep her.

08:09But I made it through and she's good.

08:11It wasn't my accident.

08:13My wife had him with someone else before she was ready to do that.

08:18Their accident is my blessing.

08:20That sounds so corny, but it's true.

08:23I wouldn't be a parent without that happening.

08:25So we do, we don't regret any of it.

08:27But yeah, it definitely wasn't on purpose.

08:30No.
