So, she then had to tell him the old fashioned way. Commenters on the post, that has been viewed almost 2.5m times, suggested the boyfriend was a great sport. "It’s the fact he still did a gender reveal even tho he knew he was Colour blind. He’s a keeper Girl," one wrote.

If you're wondering just how badly some gender reveal parties have gone, check out this list from Indy100 - it includes how one reveal led to wildfires, and another a big explosion. In 2008, while pregnant with her eldest child, Bianca, Jenna Karvunidis threw a party at which she announced the baby’s sex by cutting into a cake filled with pink icing. She wrote about the event on her blog, and her post went viral. That's how gender reveal parties were born. She told the Guardian that she now regrets publicising how she chose to inform her friends and family whether she was having a b boy or girl, saying: "When I first saw that a gender-reveal party had caused a forest fire I cried because I felt responsible. But here’s the thing – when planes crash no one goes after the Wright brothers. I think the parties probably would have happened anyway. I put form to it, but it’s not that crazy of an idea. "Now I think the whole thing is not great at all, though. The problem is they overemphasise one aspect of a person. I had two more kids after Bianca, but I never had another gender reveal party."@jennacowann oops? #firsttimemom #firstborn #youngmum #firstborndaughter #25weekspregnant ♬ Explosions - Ellie Goulding
