Do you think she did the right thing? A 30-year-old woman has sparked a debate on Reddit after sharing how she was accused of 'ruining the surprise' reveal for her friends' twins, after telling her husband before the party.
The woman explains that she and her husband have been married for six and a half years, and they don't have any children. In their friend group of three other couples, Couple A has two children, while both Couples B and C are pregnant.
The poster goes on to explain that Couple C revealed their pregnancy news when they were six weeks pregnant, and now they are 14 weeks pregnant, and want to have a 'gender reveal' at the end of October to surprise guests with the news that they are having twins. However, the woman chose to tell her 37-year-old husband ahead of the event, due to the fact that they have experienced multiple miscarriages together after trying to have children for many years.
The woman wanted to emotionally prepare her husband for the 'surprise' – so he doesn't find it triggering. She explains that their first miscarriage was in 2017 at 19 weeks, and their second and third miscarriages were in 2020 and 2021 respectively.
Couple C asked the poster to keep it a secret until the party at the end of the month, but the woman decided to tell her husband ahead of time. As a result, Couple C are not happy with the woman and have accused her of 'ruining the surprise'.
However, people online have praised the woman for sharing the secret, with many understanding why the woman chose to tell her husband before the party. They have also suggested that Couple C should have shown a little more consideration and flexibility, given the woman's experiences.
