On the other hand the cleaning lady once asked me where I live & when I told her she commented on how beautiful the homes are in my neighborhood. I don't see it that way...we were once in the home of a stockbroker on the Chicago stock exchange. Now THAT was a beautiful neighborhood. Donald Trump probably thinks those people are paupers.
Poor is relative really.

Tell her she is being selfish by acting like SHE is the only one having a baby. You are too. Then tell her that you think it would be a good time right now to go over the "Clothing Budget", "Shoe Budget"
"Personal Accesories Budget" (read makeup, perfumes, lotions).
And "How much money to spend on worthless baby gadjets Budget" i.e.
buying a new crib when your old one is perfectly fine....
You might add in that the price of a new crib would give you 150 years worth of RHP subs.
Dont be pussywhipped!!!
Stand up and be a man!!!

Make her think you're really serious about it.
When she rejects that, refer back to RHP...
It'll work.
