A mother recalled the moment she had to have her sister-in-law removed from her daughter’s baby shower. The 47-year-old woman detailed the incident in a post on Reddit’s well-known “Am I The A——” forum, explaining that the confrontation occurred during her 25-year-old daughter’s baby shower for her second child, per PEOPLE. 

How it Started

“Her first child, Phillip, was stillborn two years ago at 38 weeks,” the woman explained. “When she lost him, she asked us to take apart the nursery before she got home and ‘get rid of’ the baby equipment” because it would make her sad seeing it around the house.

“We offered to return the baby shower gifts to the givers, most kindly refused and asked us to donate the items… except my husband’s sister, Rachel,” she continued. “She made a HUGE deal out of my daughter being ‘hysterical’ and constantly, loudly talked about how ‘ridiculous’ it was to take apart the nursery.”

Since that incident, the woman mentioned that she has intentionally restricted her sister-in-law’s interactions with her daughter. The sister-in-law wasn’t allowed to attend family gatherings until she agreed to stop discussing the matter.

How it Ended

However, at her daughter’s baby shower, particularly when it came time to open gifts the sister-in-law blurted out, “If you hadn’t torn Phillip’s nursery apart and gotten rid of everything, you wouldn’t be here begging for presents for this baby,’ ” the Redditor recalled.

She said that her daughter instantly “froze,” and then “tears started running down her face.” This led the woman to tell her sister-in-law to leave, but she refused to. Her husband came into the room and asked “what happened,” she shared. “His mom told him and he physically picked up his sister and put her down outside the door.”

The rest of the family largely supports her decision, she assured Redditors.
