My BIL didn’t tell my DH that they were expecting until the day his twins were born. They already had an older DS, but also experienced losses.

This wouldn’t happen on my side of the family and I think it’s very strange since they are supposedly close.

This story is either fake or her sister did it for social media. It’s all around weird.

OP here. I’m starting to wonder if they used a surrogate. Would that make this any less weird?

Honestly, I don’t know if it’s real or a really elaborate prank. Either way I’m upset.

Not that I’m aware.

Do you know she gave birth versus adoption? Adoption can happen very suddenly.

I didn’t find out until after the baby was born.

We are not estranged. We exchange texts about twice a week.

Is this something people are doing these days?
