Father Doesn’t Allow Her Sister-in-Law To Use The Crib Prepared For Their Newborn Baby, Gets Called Selfish
Getting pregnant and becoming first-time parents is both exhilarating and nerve-racking. The expectant parents organize everything to welcome their kid into the world, from clothes to rooms, in the hopes that the newborn would have all of their necessities once they arrive. If they can afford it, they want to set everything up brand-new for the baby to make it more memorable.
OP and her husband were expecting their first child soon, so they prepared everything, including a cot, stroller, and other baby items for their newborn.
