It seems like your ex and yourself are still on respectable enough terms to functionally manage a business together. Therefore instead of letting her become shocked and have to manage her feelings the night of the party, I think the right thing to do would be let her know (kindly and respectfully) over text. Maybe something along the lines of “Hey there, just wanted to let you know that current partner and I are expecting. Just something I will need to be planning for in the near future.” Maybe make it look relevant to your responsibilities with the business.
Maybe his love-language isn't gifts, so they don't mean as much to him as you? You could have a conversation with him to find-out what his love-language is (quality time, words of affirmation, acts of service, physical touch, etc) then act on that to show him love in a way that would mean more to him.
IDK. I have had an ex do that.. pretend to like things and then suddenly after he realized he'd “gotten me” the truth came out and he was like I don't like that and I'm not doing it. Either way. Sucks for her. She should stop asking but also should make sure she's happy with other things at least
Yes, the best way to KILL any joke. Explanation.
Thats what i thought. Thank you for your response.
It might be beneficial to look for a therapist, even if you only go once, so they can give you some other strategies to help.

Yelling should not be tolerated in a healthy relationship. Step away, cool off, come back and communicate like adults.
No, cause where I come from if you run your mouth, it will get punched shut.

WALK AWAY before you end up in hospital. Or the morgue
Why does him paying his share of rent equal less groceries? Shouldn’t that mean you have more available money?
Why would you stop buying food because he’s paying less than you?
Your financial way of thinking isn’t making sense.
