Couple keeps pregnancy a secret for 9 months, surprises grandma

A grandmother got the surprise of her life Saturday when her son and daughter-in-law revealed they had been expecting -- just two days just before the infant was born.

Tannin Pease of Roy, Utah, captured the moment when his mom, Carolynn Pease, learned she was going to be a grandma for the 11th time.

"Speechless," Tannin Pease told ABC News of his mother's reaction. "You see it in the video but in the end, it was far better than I expected. I believed she was going to hit me, but she turned around and hit my dad and kind of laughed it off."

After Tannin, 30, and his wife Katie Pease, 26, learned they were expecting their third child, they decided to wait to tell pals and family till they located out the baby's gender. The couple had two miscarriages right after the birth of their second kid so this time didn't want to share the news as well soon, Katie Pease told ABC News.

"We had already been by way of two miscarriages where we told persons we had been pregnant and then we had to inform them we weren't any longer," Katie mentioned. "That was heartbreaking and we didn't want to have to go by way of that again, so it helped waiting so lengthy."

Except for telling Katie's close loved ones and one particular or two friends, the couple kept quiet about the pregnancy. As Tannin's family lives in a different state, Montana, he stated it wasn't also difficult maintaining the secret.

"We Skyped them each and every when in awhile, but we just made positive to retain the belly out of the picture and preserve the two grandkids the center of interest," Tannin stated.

Each Tannin and Katie changed their Facebook settings so all tagged pictures needed approval just before being posted. Katie also wore baggier clothes than typical and "stayed household a lot," she said.

Katie had a scheduled induction Feb. 19, which happens to be the birthday of Tannin's mother, Carolynn.

When on Feb. 18, Carolynn visited her son and daughter-in-law, Tannin met her at the door to Betgram inform her that not only was she going to have a different grandchild, but the baby would come a day or two later.

Tannin's dad, Jeff, had discovered of the pregnancy in the course of the fifth month, but to Carolynn, it was a fantastic surprise.

"When we Skyped and I saw [Katie's] face, I believed, 'Oh she stopped jogging. That is OK ... no judgment right here," Carolynn, 57, told ABC News with a laugh. "I didn't actually anticipate to hear something this soon in particular with the last miscarriage they had, which was traumatic. I was just entirely floored. I feel seriously elated due to the fact they've a challenging time and I was genuinely excited for them. I believed the entire point was really thoughtful to surprise me."

"[My mom] mentioned to me that it was the most effective birthday present she's ever had and was super excited to be in a position to hold a further grandchild," Tannin said. "She loved the surprise too."

He posted a video of his mom's reaction on Facebook with an announcement for the rest of their pals and family.

On Feb. 20 at ten:09 a.m., Saul Pease was born weighing 7 pounds, 7 ounces. He joins significant brothers Cooper, 4, and Gray, two.

Katie Pease said their extended family and buddies were shocked that the couple was in a position to pull off such a major surprise.

"A lot of persons, they had been wondering how on earth we did it," she stated. "We had a couple of individuals say, 'Did you lock her up in a closet?' But it just worked out, I guess. Individuals ultimately saw us and a couple of pregnancy photographs and a bahis sitesi image of the infant and were like, 'You seriously did it!'"

When grandma Carolynn was asked what she will do if one of her children surprises her once more nine months into a pregnancy, she said, "They won't. I am on alert."
