Pregnant woman forced to confront mother-in-law after 'rude social media announcement'

Finding out that you are pregnant can be an amazing experience but figuring out who to tell and when can be really tricky and stress inducing.

Of course the first to find out are often the soon to be grandparents and our closest friends. It goes without saying that we expect those that we tell to keep the information to themselves until we are ready to share with the wider world.

So it is no surprise that one woman was angered after her mother-in-law decided to announce her pregnancy on social media by using the hashtag ‘new baby’ just moments after she was told of the news. Her partner had said that he had told his whole family to “please keep it off socials” as they weren’t ready to share the news just yet.
