/u/sharkaub on OOP’s wife made a baby registry and friends and family were not “thoughtful/mindful” enough to pitch in. Although she’s “bummed out” bc she wanted a big show of care from her loved ones, she’s more upset that things weren’t bought so pls ch

She doesnt need a chunk of this stuff, either- her baby might be bald or avoid cradle cap, for instance, so why a baby brush kit and cradle cap kit until you know? Yeah it sucks to have to spend money on baby stuff while you're off work, especially if you're in a country where it costs a chunk of money to have the baby- but thats life. You build a village around yourself the best you can, for years before you have the kid, and theyll show up for you- but you're the one who decided to have a baby. Theyre expensive and you cant force someone to financially support that. It sounds like theyve done plenty, dude even says that they got most of what they need.
