- My mother in law just posted my 3d ultrasound photo to Facebook and announced my pregnancy before I’ve announced it. Without my knowledge.
I’m angry and sad. I thought it would be nice to send her the 3d picture of our baby and I feel like the biggest idiot. We haven’t announced the pregnancy publicly yet AT ALL. Just close friends...

- Would you make a baby for 100k?
