When a happy couple finds out that they're pregnant, one of the most exciting things that comes next is planning how they are going to reveal the news to their family.

Some decide on a small gesture, maybe wrapping the pregnancy test in some wrapping paper and letting the soon-to-be grandparents open it and see it for themselves. Some do it with a cute little gift that sends the message, like a tiny onesie with the writing 'My Auntie Loves Me' on it. Others go for grand gestures, like doing a whole photoshoot and sharing the photos, or hosting a party and announcing it to everyone they love all at once.

Regardless of how it is done, it's a beautiful moment that should make the happy couple, well, happy. If one of them is not on board with the announcement, it simply shouldn't happen that way. There's no reason why they can't announce the news in a way that would satisfy them both.

  • PolitelyUnhinged Have you informed his family that he was lying and you're not pregnant? This is 1000% break up worthy for me. Does he have a history of making things up?!

  • luckychicke That's some weird manipulation going on. Maybe I've been watching too many scam shows recently, but that man is not sane.

  • xoxmarquitaxox A beautiful moment?! How is announcing something that isn't true, a beautiful moment?! Him and his family are definitely a special kind of slow

  • Perfect_Clue5013 Nope that's insane and incredibly cruel... run.

  • TemporarySubject9654 No. That was a complete AH move on his part. I don't even blame you if you break up with him over this.

  • Pretty-Caregiver-108 He's trying to get you pregnant before marrying you and there's a high chance he won't marry you after the baby comes.

  • Definitely_Naughty NTA. Leave the man, not just the party. How heartbreaking for your family to hear you're expecting, then hear it's all made up. He will play on yours and everyone's emotions for as long as you're with him. Do t let him

  • wanna_be_green8 NOR. That should be a topic first discussed in private. As should any pregnancy announcement that comes later. Really kind of next level crazy and disrespectful of him.

  • No-Coach6715 correct me if I'm wrong...but it sounds like you don't want kids with him and he's really pressing for it. maybe you don't want kids at all...maybe you just don't want them with him because you know he isn't right for you.
    via No-Coach6715
  • the fact that this isn't the first time he's done something of this nature makes me assume the first time it happened you had a discussion about that being a huge no-no. if you did and he
    via No-Coach6715
  • then did it AGAIN in front of your family...you probably need to reconsider marrying someone who doesn't take you and your boundaries into consideration
