This is one gender reveal with a difference. He found out before she did! Seems a bit odd? Well, odd it may be, but it is also very cute. He was shocked to discover his sterilization hadn’t worked, and now they would be expecting a fourth baby.
Tim and Rachel Brummel, from Georgia, had a family of three young boys, and both were happy with that number. To avoid having any more children, Tim took it upon himself to become sterilized. Both of his vasa deferentia, which are the ducts that carry sperm, were completely severed ... or so he thought.
Seven months down the track, Tim became suspicious of Rachel’s behavior—she was moody, more hungry than usual, and at times felt nauseous. In other words, Tim thought she was acting just “a little bit pregnant.”
How could that be, he wondered, there’s no way. But hang on, he suddenly remembered he hadn’t had confirmation from the doctor that his sterilization had been successful. He called up the doctor and was told it hadn’t worked. They had forgotten to notify him.
So he decided to take the matter into his own hands to discover if his wife was pregnant for a fourth time.
“How many guys get the chance to tell their wife she is pregnant? I wanted to surprise her!” says Tim. “I turned off the toilet water in the middle of the night and flushed so there was no water in it.”
Using a pregnancy tester, he discovered she was pregnant; they were going to have a new addition to their brood!
