[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Consider giving her a pass on this one if you can afford the furniture. Pregnant mothers want what they want and she didn't want you trying to replace her careful selection with cheap Ikea stuff. If you're planning on more than one child, remember that future children will also be using this furniture so it's worth it to buy quality pieces that will hold up for years.

IMO, $500 is too low for the "spouse authorization" rule. Consider raising the amount to $1500.[/quote]

OP here. She set the limit after I purchased a $1200 glider for the living room. She decided we need 
“ authorization” and a limit of $500 unless we both agreed on the purchase. [/quote]

You bought something you liked for a space in your house that was for everyone.  You imposed your taste on your wife on a daily basis.

Your wife bought furniture for the baby's room, for a nursery that most people won't see and for a space that you yourself admitted you don't care how it looks.

Can you not see a difference in this?  [/quote]
