She’s Pregnant With A Girl But Won’t Tell Anyone Her Future Daughter’s Name Because She’s Worried Her Sister-In-Law Will Just Try To Copy Her Again
This 26-year-old woman is currently about 20 weeks pregnant, and just recently, she and her 28-year-old husband finally found out the gender of their baby. Spoiler alert: they’re having a girl!
“My husband and I are extremely happy since we really wanted to have a daughter and already had a name for her – which is a name that I’ve always wanted my child to have,” she explained.
So, during a video call with both her parents and her husband’s parents, they decided to reveal their baby’s gender. This felt more appropriate for them since neither she nor her husband wanted to have a gender reveal party (or deal with the stress that comes with planning one).
Anyway, after she and her husband told everyone that they were having a girl, they also opted to provide a virtual tour of the half-finished baby nursery in their home.
Well, it was then that her sister-in-law noticed they weren’t showing one specific side of the room and asked about it.
At that point, she detailed how the name they picked out for their daughter was already placed on the wall on that side of the room.
“And we didn’t want to show it to them as a surprise for when our baby would be born,” she said.
Rather than respecting their wishes, though, her sister-in-law wouldn’t stop nagging her and her husband to show everyone the wall anyway.
Thankfully, they stood their ground in spite of the pressure, but her husband eventually got sick and tired of his sister’s behavior. That’s why he actually threatened to end the video call unless she quit talking.

Her husband’s response honestly shocked her since she’d never seen him snap like that. Even so, she understood why he reacted like that – given her sister-in-law’s strange tendencies in the past.
Apparently, her sister-in-law has a habit of always trying to copy her, no matter what she does. For instance, whenever she buys a new item, her sister-in-law will run out and purchase it as well. Or, if she gets a cosmetic treatment, her sister-in-law does, too.
“And considering that my sister-in-law was pregnant with a girl and was going to give birth soon, we didn’t want to risk it,” she reasoned.
Nonetheless, her own mom has also actually begun pressuring her to share her baby’s name. Plus, her mom claimed that it was “just a name” and that she had no reason to be super secretive about it.
Now, her own mother’s opinion has left her wondering if refusing to share her future daughter’s name with anyone aside from her husband really is a jerky move.
Do you have a right to keep some things private, especially your baby’s name, until you’re ready? What would you do in her shoes?
