O.M.G. Why is everybody so negative??? She was 2 months when he left & didn't know & YES that happens ALL the time!

I agree coming everybody GROW UP it happens 😃

right it happened to me

I hate it when Snapchat makes a whole story about this and tries to make you read 100 paragraphs to actually get to the actual story like this...smh🤦🏽‍♂️

RIGHT I CAME STRAIGHT HERE LMAOO

Hahahahaha same

[@itskennyb]

Right‼️ like get to the point

[@PRod7544]

The only reason why they do that is because of marketing strategies. First they hook you with the click bait then they put multiple ads on every page you view while you’re reading. It’s actually genius from a marketing standpoint because they can put more ads into individual small pages rather than allowing you to read the whole story on a page you just scroll on to read.

[@Jay3ll388]

I don’t even bother clicking those traps! Literally pointless!!

[@aalliyhakayy2384]

SHE WAS ALREADY PREGNANT *BEFORE* HE LEFT FOR DEPLOYMENT. LISTEN TO THE VIDEO PEOPLE

[@MsBeautyizme]

Ayy Kayy exactly! It's good to know I wasn't the only one listening. She was already 2 months pregnant because she was 8 months after his 6 month deployment.

[@yvechainser9572]

Marquita Carter math

[@kaylawilcox7357]

Ayy Kayy no

[@christian4u69]

@ Marquita Carter IF she was already 2 months pregnant when he left for deployment, why wouldn't she tell him? You can't tell me that she didn't know, or at least have a suspicion that she was pregnant for 2 months while he was still at home.

[@patriciamassa7829]

Chris Bowman Actually there are many women who don't know they're pregnant because sometimes in a pregnancy you can have a period for a few months. A light one but it's still there

[@s_k_e_e_b_o]

Just to clarify to everyone, the husband was gone for 6 months and the wife was 7 1/2 months pregnant

[@lilykrom8761]

Yeah but she might have had sex a month and more before and she didn't notice she was pregnant until after he left due to menstrual cycles

[@dillonmichaels6037]

Lily Krom women don't generally realize they're pregnant for a month or two, not until they miss their period and realize is not just late

[@s_k_e_e_b_o]

well usually you just take the pregnancy test or get consent to have kids

ITS SAID 6 MONTH DEPLOYMENT AND SHE WAS PREGNANT 8 MONTHS Listen guys smh

[@shilah1940]

MythicalStorm It was two months before he left so she got pregnant by him. Nothing wrong about that.

[@HFDay-qi6yc]

Oh.. I'm glad I read the comments first. He was gone for only 6 months and she was 11/2 month pregnant when he left. That makes sense.

[@annm861]

Her hair looks so soft

[@Dachdogoriginal]

I would never hide that from my husband. It would be OURS. It would also be good encouragement and reminder to be safe on deployment.

[@Dachdogoriginal]

@Alyssa Margolis that's not my point. Meeting your unborn child is an expectation. That's all. And its both of theirs. Not just hers. But again, that's MY opinion. Everyone is entitled to theirs.

[@axel4196]

Good call. You sound like a woman with sense. A secret of that nature should NOT be kept from him.

[@korigarbison2259]

She was pregnant before he left didn't tell him it makes so sense why didn't tell over Skype,a lot of woman find out their pregant soon after their husbands are gone and fighting a war.

[@JT-91]

Because she got a guilty conscience.

[@sbonelocele3711]

[@toocutepuppies6535]

[@maverickmantasha8457]

She shouldn't have kept it a secret. He deserved to know. In those nine months of pregnancy, not just the child but also the parents grow and get mentally prepared to be parents. Je deserved all that time!

[@ayophil]

They already had many children, can't be anymore prepared than that

[@D3ViiANT]

Rocky Maria Oh? How much more can you 'grow and get mentally prepared to be a parent' between your 3rd and 4th child?

[@rockymaria5390]

Kadomex A LOT actually, every child is different, you could have two kids who are perfectly healthy BUT your third kid could be sickly and can't even walk, and stuff like that you have to prepare for mentally and physically

[@graciegorl2005]

I would think it would Be a nice surprise after a long time away!
