The woman shares that she ultimately tossed the unwelcome gift in the trash, but her husband wasn’t happy wasting the pregnancy tests.

“I threw away the tests and toy and calendar after they left. My husband thinks I am over reacting and they just want to ‘encourage’ us but this is overstepping to me. His mother thinks I was disrespectful denying the gift like I did, she does not know I threw them away.”

“My husband tried to get the gifts from the trash as we might use them later on but I said no leave them there, and he thinks I am wrong and wasteful for what I am doing.”
