Signed a lease not aware of our pregnancy and want to break it. Does this count for a life changing event to break the lease?

My husband and I signed a lease before we found out we were expecting. It was not a planned pregnancy and now with our addition here we do not have enough space.
Is this considered a life changing event to break our lease?
We have 4 months left in our lease, and have been good tenants in our 2 yr agreement, but had we known we were getting pregnant, we would not have moved to where we are now.
Most leases do not have "life changing event" provisions. At least, I have not encountered many in my 22 years of practice. Your best bet is to simply talk with the management and explain the situation and see if they would allow you to find someone to sublease the place or have them look for another tenant.
No.
Unless your lease agreement has a clause that "life changing events' will allow a lease to be broken, you must remain in your lease or negotiate your way out of it. I have never seen or heard of such a provision.
