Background
In November 2017, while eating lunch with her best friend, Lulu Spencer-Falconeri, Maxie gets nauseous to the point of throwing up twice. After she throws up the second time, Lulu announces that she’s pregnant. Maxie denies it, at first, saying that she can’t be because she and Nathan haven’t discussed it. Later on, she buys a pregnancy test and realizes that she’s late. Eventually, she takes the test but is interrupted by Chet before she can look at the results. Later on, Maxie blurts out to that to Chet that Amy is Ask Man Landers, just as Nathan and Amy walk in. Amy confirms it and while the chaos is happening, Maxie completely forgets of the test. She eventually remembers and goes to look at it but it isn't seen on screen. After Amy and Chet leave, Maxie tells Nathan she has something to tell him and he says it sounds serious. She says its "good news... I hope". But before she could say anything they are interrupted by her phone.
