You might be onto something.
Based on the original TikTok, the mom made this for her pregnant daughter's gender reveal. The child in the video is the daughter's younger sister, who passed away.
No idea how long ago she died, but the pregnant daughter may have just been playing along to keep her mom happy.

More than likely the mother of both daughters, who you could hear sobbing while recording the video. What a morbid way to celebrate new life.

The grandma was the one who lost the child in the video and then put her living pregnant daughter through this awkwardness, while crying behind her, because nothing says I'm happy for you like I'm sad for me, I guess.

u/Gullible-Cat-2900 7h ago
I know everyone processes grief differently and it’s devastating to lose a child, but isn’t it a bit narcissistic to hijack your daughter’s gender reveal with the memory of a younger sister who has clearly been dead for at least a decade? It’s very strange placement for a message from beyond the grave

Apparently it was the expectant grandma who was the mom of the child that died who made this video. She is having her dead daughter in heaven reveal the gender of the still living daughter’s baby.
Going to go out on a limb and say that living daughter has spent much of her life in the shadow of her dead sister.

The horrors of the future terrify me in ways I can not justly put into words. Please don't attack me when I say this, but this is not good for the human brain. I saw a video recently of a mother put into a VR world so she can interact with her daughter who passed away. She broke down and was desperately trying to touch her. I don't blame these parents who lost their kid for wanting something like this. I don't blame anyone. I am just terrified about what this means for our future sanity as a species. Dragging out grief like that can't be healthy in the long run.

It's macabre. They won't let them rest in peace. I get that it's very gripping and devastating to lose someone so young, but to make a farce out of them is truly depressing. That's what therapy is for. Not "we look after our own" on a dime.

Funny enough during Roman funerals for the wealthy, they would hire actors to dress as the deceased and say farewell stuff. Julius Caesar's funeral featured something like this, where an actor portrayed him and admonished his assassins for their treachery.

I know that the loss of a pregnancy, baby, and child is horrific.
But nothing about this is normal. It's entirely fake, and I would not find it comforting.
This is utterrly grotesque and disturbing, and it disturbs me that this kind of fantasy psychosis is normalized.
It's not even CGI, it's a hallucinations of a machine using your dead child's image to reanimate it like Pinnochio as a helpless and lifeless puppet.
This entire premise is so upsetting and gross to me

I’m going to be pedantic and ask why is the dead sister still a child in heaven? Does no one age from when they died? Is heaven chock full of babies from millennia of high infant mortality rates? That’s way too many babies. Are there millions of fetuses from all the abortions? Is every Tuesday Taco Tuesday? Do you have to personally TGIF God every Friday?

Raised Catholic. Was told (repeatedly) that, in Heaven, people take their most perfect form - like whatever age they were most “perfect”, and that varies person to person.
Definitely not religious now… even as a kid, a lot of the stuff I was told did not sit well with me and I didn’t “grow out of it”.
