Infertile woman's BF wants to announce fake pregnancy at her brother's baby shower.
When this woman is weirded out by her boyfriend's behavior, she asks Reddit:
'WIBTA If I announce a fake pregnancy at my brothers baby shower?'
My BF bought a fake positive pregnancy test and wants to 'announce' it at his brothers baby shower as a prank.
I think it's a bad idea for OBVIOUS reasons.
But he insists its hilarious and that it will be fine, because that is his family's humor.
Since we don't agree, we decided we would leave it up to the internet to decide.
So would he be the asshole if he announced a fake pregnancy at his brothers baby shower?
Also I am sterile, so he believes there is an extra layer of 'humor' to the prank.(I do not care about being sterile because I hate children and have never wanted any.)
Let's find out.

YWBTA 100% Don't ruin a special occasion (especially for your brother's wife, the one who's actually pregnant) just because the rest of her in laws have a shitty 'sense of humor'.

YWBTA.There's nothing funny about that. Firstly, there are people out there that can't have children and making believe you're pregnant is just wrong. Second, it's a baby shower.
That is just about the worst place to announce a pregnancy, let alone a fake one. If your bf thinks it's so funny, he can go by himself and announce it while you stay home. Once he does, you can tell everyone how you stayed home cause you knew it was a bad idea.
