Hey, OP here! This is my first ever HN post- I appreciate the warm reception.

A couple hours after posting this on my site, I found this incredible vid of a woman telling her partner she’s pregnant. Incredibly heartfelt, and only 16 views https://youtu.be/refKFdcojlE?si=l-PssLVYmmOPjjjA

It was posted over 10 years ago. I wonder if the family even knows that this video still exists.

That kid will be 10 soon.

  • Eleven in four months?

    • Assuming it takes someone roughly 4-6 weeks to realize they are pregnant, the child was probably born in or around November 2014, and will be turning 10 in the next couple weeks.

      I suppose the woman filming the video could have taken much longer to realize (unlikely, but possible), or chose to wait to tell the father until several months later (also unlikely, but possible), but either way, the kid is turning 10 now-ish, not 11.

      It's also possible that this video was posted well after it was taken, in which case we can't say much about the age of the kid, except that it likely happened before this "Share to YouTube" functionality was removed from iOS.

  • this is you why can't reuse calendars

    • I don't understand your comment.

      (By the way, presumably there are still about 9 months to go in that pregnancy before the child is born.)

Why does he walk off at the end? Did he still not believe her do you think?

  • I was going to explain the way i saw it, but i erased it and decided it's probably best not to give my thoughts in case he or someone in his life came across the comments out of respect.
