Warning: discussion of baby loss. A man has shared his heartache as his mum had publicly announced she was going to become a grandparent – after realising her son and his partner had lost the baby
When you find out you are pregnant it can be really hard to keep it a secret, but given there are so many things that can happen before 12 weeks most people keep quiet until they pass that bench mark.
However, one man has publicly shamed his mum for announcing his partner’s pregnancy on Facebook, as the couple had heartbreakingly lost their baby by the time she’d announced the news.
Now second-guessing his brutal response to his mums social media post, he asked on Reddit if he was an a**hole for his public comment during the unfortunate circumstance of his mum prematurely announcing the news.
The unnamed man revealed: “My wife was pregnant with our first child. We weren’t telling anyone yet because it was early. My mom was over at our house and noticed some obvious clues of pregnancy. She asked about it and we were honest.
