A mom-to-be was enraged after her gender reveal party was sabotaged by her own mother.
Back in 2021, TikTok user Ashlee - who goes by the handle @dinkymisspretty - had invited her family and friends to find out whether her unborn baby would be a girl or a boy.
In the short video, the mother - who already had a son - is seen overcome with emotion when she popped a balloon and pink confetti exploded out.
She started jumping up and down with excitement upon seeing the pink color and thought that she was having a baby girl, only to be left disappointed after her son came over to tell her what her mom had done.
Watch Ashlee's TikTok below:Viewers can see on closer inspection that the confetti that came out of the balloon was not just pink, but actually blue - signaling that she will in fact have a boy.
Ashlee wrote in the overlay text: "Clearly you can see I wanted a girl so bad and in that moment I felt like I hit the lottery," and then added: "Then here comes my son making me realize its really another boy. I was p***ed."
After sharing the video on the platform, it amassed 726K views and 108.9K likes, with many people agreeing that Ashlee had every right to be upset at what transpired.
One user wrote: "That’s unfair they knew she wanted a girl… why play like that?"
Another person said: "Now see this reaction is valid because you can’t play with a pregnant woman’s emotions like that. I’m sure you’ll have a beautiful baby boy though."
A third user chimed in and commented: "That’s honestly really disrespectful to your feelings. So sorry. But boy mama congrats."
A fourth remarked: "I'm so sorry she did that to you. I would've been so heartbroken if someone did that to me. That was just plain mean."
At the time, Ashlee responded to a comment about her mom being "bitter" and said: "I haven't talked to her since this. But for plenty other reasons lol so I agree with this message!"
Many other people even shared their own gender reveal disasters, with one woman revealing that her partner threw himself a gender reveal party - without inviting or informing her.
Since posting the video, Ashlee shared a clip of her maternity shoot on the video-sharing app. She posted a quick snapshot of her newborn and seemingly confirmed to have had a girl after all after writing the caption: "BabyGirl we prayed for you."
