Sharing the news that you're pregnant always brings with it a sense of excitement — especially when you're telling close friends and family. But one couple probably wasn't anticipating the level of intensity that both their moms would display after hearing the news that they're expecting. Video of the hilariously joyful moment is currently sweeping TikTok, where viewers can't get enough of their adorable reaction.
The clip was originally shot in 2019, but just recently shared on TikTok
It was uploaded by the popular account @yournonnas, which is run by New Jersey mom and realtor Lina Siciliano, who loves to share snippets from her home life, as well as the adorable antics of her own mother, Serafina, and her mother-in-law, Connie.
Siciliano posted the sweet memory on February 6, calling it her "favorite" video ever.
"What do you get when you put two soon-to-be nonnas in a room together and tell them you are pregnant? The most insane and exciting reaction possible!" she captioned the clip.
And she certainly wasn't kidding.
@yournonnas What do you get when you put 2 soon-to-be nonnas in a room together and tell them you are pregnant? The most insane and exciting reaction possible! This will always be my favorite video ❤️ ❤️ #italian #pregnancy #pregnancyannouncement #surprise #nonna #bestreaction #announcement #pregnant #throwback ♬ original sound – Connie and Fina
In the video, both women sit side-by-side on a couch as they're each handed gifts
Both presents are exactly the same: two framed sonogram photos, featuring their soon-to-be grandkid.
Though it takes one of the women a few seconds to catch on, the other puts it together much more quickly.
"What's this?" Serafina says.
“Are you f-cking kidding? Are you kidding? She's pregnant!" says Connie, which immediately triggers an avalanche of emotions.
The two women simultaneously lean back, screaming with excitement
"We're grandmas," they say, before embracing in a moment of pure happiness.
The screaming continues throughout the video, only pausing momentarily for the women to ask how far along Siciliano is.
"It's early," the mom-to-be says. "Only nine weeks."
Then, after a brief moment of silence, the two women go back to their screaming, once again hugging each other in happiness.
"The best thing is they're not acting," Siciliano said of their reaction. "It's so organic and hysterical."
Since sharing the video on TikTok, it's brought in thousands of views
According to Siciliano, who recently spoke with Today.com, she and her husband are the youngest children in both of their families, which is why they anticipated a big reaction from their mothers.
"It was their babies having babies," Siciliano said, looking back. "I definitely thought that they would get up and maybe hug me and my husband and congratulate us."
Even so, Siciliano said their reaction wound up being so "overwhelming," that even she was shocked by it.
"I felt like I was the one being surprised!"
So far, the views and comments just keep on coming
"My favorite thing is just the reactions of everyone viewing it," Siciliano said. "The is totally relatable but also… oh my god."
"These ladies look they won the lottery," one person wrote in the comments.
"This is the best response ever!" added someone else. "That baby’s never going to be put down lolol."
"You sent both Nonnas right into roller-coaster mode," another commenter wrote — to which Siciliano replied, "For days!!!"
Siciliano has since gone on to have a second child, and while there doesn't seem to be video footage of that announcement (at least on TikTok), this first one will always remain her favorite — for obvious reasons.
