I found a pregnancy test in my DSs gfs flat

My DS is 28, he has been with his girlfriend for a bit over a year. They are away to her family abroad, they asked if I would mind checking in on her flat. I went today as I was in the area for a hair appointment. Collected up parcels left by the door or at neighbours, checked all was well then nipped into the bathroom. In the bathroom when I was washing my hands I realised there was a pregnancy test, positive left by the sink.
The thing is we met up with them before their flight (but after they left home for the airport) and his girlfriend was drinking.

I don’t know what to make of this, surely they’d have known I was going to be there and possibly using the bathroom.

Im tempted to message my son and let him know I’ve seen it? But then what if she has decided to terminate, or it’s from a friend who was over or some other personal reason that’s nothing to do with me?

Do I just mind my business? Or would it be okay for me to mention it.

Do not mention it. Wait for them to share the news.

100% Mind your own business.

They probably have a lot on their minds, and forgot it was out by the sink. They must be kicking themselves and worried you've seen it, praying you haven't. It's not your fault you did, but please don't say a word and let them tell you if and when they choose to.

It might be that they haven't decided if they will keep it or not. Or a myriad of other scenarios.

I know you are curious and possibly excited but it's absolutely vital you stay well out of it

What do you really know? Direct facts are needed. Wait till they tell you.

summervile · 29/12/2025 18:08

No you don’t say anything at all. It’s none of your business. She may or may not be pregnant, and if she is she may or may not choose to have the baby. Stay out of it.

Yes you’ve got to keep shum.

Only reason I’d say something is if your DS and his gf were under 18 then I think it’s ok to ask.

At 28 you stay out of it.

”his girlfriend was drinking” maybe she had non alcoholic to make it look like it was alcohol.

Maybe she is pregnant but they want to terminate, completely up to them

Maybe it’s not her test like you say

You need to stay completely out of this.
Please do not say anything to anyone. You have no idea what the situation is. You risk really damaging your relationship with your son and/or damaging his relationship with his girlfriend, if you bring this up.

luckylavender · 29/12/2025 18:10

It’s none of your business and if it’s been out that long it could be incorrect now.

Do not mention it. Wait for them to share the news.

Or not as the case may be.

OnlyMabelInTheBuilding · 29/12/2025 19:59

Why on earth would you possibly think you should mention it?!

sprigatito · 29/12/2025 20:00

Beak out. No good can come of you interfering in something so private and personal. If they want to share with you, they will.

WeNeedToTalkAboutIT · 29/12/2025 20:56

You never saw it. You never went into their bathroom.

That's the ONLY acceptable answer.
