A WOMAN has been slammed for placing a positive pregnancy test on top of a cake announcing her baby news.
The mum-to-be left people horrified with her apparent lack of hygiene after a snap was shared online.
An image – showing the used device laid on top of blue and white icing reading 'we're pregnant' – was posted in a cake shaming Facebook group.
The pregnancy test could be seen clearly showing the anonymous couple are expecting, but members of the group were revolted by the thought that the stick had been urinated on.
Captioning the pic in the group, the poster wrote: "You literally p****d on that stick, but sure, go ahead and stick it on top of the cake."
The snap quickly garnered more than 1,000 'likes' and over 400 comments.
You literally p****d on that stick, but sure, go ahead and stick it on top of the cake.
Many agreed with them that another decoration should have been used instead.
One person wrote: "Dude, I don't care if you put the lid back on it… don't stick something you peed on on a cake! That should not have to be said!"
Another commented: "That's f*****g gross. Hands down no amount of bleach that could ever make that okay."
A third shared: "I don't even like bringing food into a bathroom let alone putting a whizz stick on the food…even if they bleached it that is still uncomfortable and not appetising in any way
Some suggested what appeared to be a pregnancy test could in fact be a very "realistic" cake topper.
One person wrote: "Maybe the pregnancy stick is just very realistic fondant? Somehow I doubt that though."
Another pointed out: "A malformed fondant pregnancy test would be better."
The six foods ALL pregnant women should avoid
Dietitian Susan Short has recommended the foods that mums-to-be should give up to safeguard their baby's health.
1. Soft cheese
This advice applies to all soft cheese that is mould-ripened.
Susan warns against Camembert, brie, blue cheeses and Stilton as they are "more likely to cause bacterial infections such as listeriosis, salmonella and toxic prognosis [toxic shock]."
2. Raw eggs
Fully-cooked eggs are fine, but if you are a fan of soft poached eggs in the morning you'll have to give those up for nine months.
Susan explains that the more raw the yolk is, the higher the chance of getting salmonella.
3. Pâté
Susan said: "Any liver pâté, so anything with liver or liver products, are high in vitamin A and that can be toxic to the developing baby.
"Vitamin A at high levels can affect the baby's growth and development."
4. Certain fish
Susan said: "While fish is good for you there are some that contain high levels of mercury.
"These pollutants can build up in the body and effect the baby's developing nervous system.
"With that in mind, the ones you must avoid are shark, swordfish and marlin."
5. Caffeine
Susan said: "Caffeine should be limited when pregnant, you should have no more than 200 milligrams a day.
"That is the equivalent of two cups of instant coffee or two and a half cups of tea."
6. Alcohol
While you may have heard or read that a small amount of alcohol from time to time when you're pregnant is acceptable, Susan said it should always be avoided.
Susan added: "We would say no amount of alcohol is recommended."
Others took issue another aspect of the cake entirely, arguing that "we're pregnant" is dated.
One person complained: "I hate that 'we' sh*t. She's pregnant, 'we' are going to have a baby."
Another noted: "I get irrationally bothered by people saying 'we're' pregnant when referring to a couple in which one person is carrying the child."
