What was supposed to be a joyous celebration of our baby’s arrival turned into chaos and confrontation. I never imagined that my gender reveal party would end in such turmoil.
Planning a gender reveal party had been one of my most anticipated moments of pregnancy. At 26, newly married to Matt and expecting our first child, I was thrilled to share this milestone with our friends and family.
After all the challenges Matt and I had faced to get here, celebrating the news with everyone we loved seemed perfect.
The day of the party arrived, and our backyard looked stunning. Pastel balloons swayed in the breeze, streamers fluttered, and a large banner proclaimed, “Boy or Girl?”
