‘I kept my pregnancy a secret from my husband – people think I’m out of order’

A mum has sparked debate online after choosing to keep the pregnancy of her third child a secret from her husband as viewers suspect the father could be ‘upset’

Pregnancies are often associated with heartfelt times surrounded by your closest friends and family as you wait anxiously for the arrival of your little one. However, one pregnant woman thought otherwise as she openly admitted to keeping part of her pregnancy a secret from her husband.

Taking to popular video-streaming service TikTok, mum Ibolya Martin explained how she was keeping the announcement of her third child a secret, including from the father himself. She had a reason for keeping quiet about the exciting news though, as she was keen to spill the news to her husband during a photo shoot, which would capture the wholesome moment on film.

However, the video, which has surpassed a jaw-dropping 7.8 million views to date, sparked a debate amongst viewers who weren’t relatively keen on the idea.

Additionally, some users thought that it was ‘out of order’ for the mum to keep tight-lipped on the exciting news.

In the popular video, the mum said: “Not telling my husband we’re having our third and last baby until our family photo shoot.”

The video showed the woman undergoing a baby scan alone, which soon moved to footage of her other two children prepping for the exciting shoot.

The two kids prepared for photographs with a sign, which read: “We’re adding a little more love to our family – 2023.”

Rushing to the comments, however, viewers were torn over the mum’s decision to keep the beginning part of pregnancy a secret from her partner, which sparked a debate.

One person wrote: “Idk how you do it. My husband would know immediately cuz the morning sickness kicks in quick with me.”

“See my husband would be upset I didn’t include him at that 1st appointment!! lol,” a second claimed.

On the other hand, a different user wrote: “Everyone talking bout THEIR husband. Well good thing she knows HER husband & it will a cute surprise.”

In an updated video, Ibolya showed wholesome footage and professional photographs of her partner’s ecstatic reaction to the exciting news, putting people’s nerves at ease.
