FMIL spills the beans on Facebook about fake baby name
A woman shares her frustration about her future mother-in-law’s behavior during her pregnancy. Despite being excited about the baby, the FMIL has not been accepting of the woman and has even gone as far as announcing the engagement before the couple could. When the couple decides to keep the baby’s name a secret until the birth, the FMIL tries to guilt-trip them into revealing it. The woman gives her a fake name to stop her nagging, only to find out that the FMIL has announced it on Facebook. The woman’s fiancé is understandably furious, but the FMIL still tries to blame the woman for telling her the wrong name. The woman turns to Reddit to ask if she’s the a**hole. After receiving overwhelming support, the couple sits down with the FMIL to establish boundaries. In the end, the couple welcomes their baby girl into the world and shares an update on their situation with the FMIL. Read on for the whole story and the final update.
