It was at that point that Steph saw that she’d been beaten to it, as her mother-in-law had posted about the baby girl’s arrival first.

“POV: you’re scrolling on Facebook after a 32 hour labour, emergency section and realise you’re not the first one to post your baby,” she wrote over a TikTok video of herself exclaiming “What?”

“Am I being dramatic when I said this upset me??” she captioned her video.

“I was asleep and my partner found the post on Facebook,” someone commented on the clip.
