Let me start of by saying that YES, I have discussed this with my wife, extensively. Many years ago when our kids still lived at home we purchased then a fairly cheep dresser to put their clothes in. In the boys room was a dresser with 4 drawers in it. Same as in my daughter's room. Well, my daughter's dresser broke but the one in the boys room has held up. I've reinforced it with a few screws and some glue along the way. Now that we're empty nesters my wife had decided to put some of her clothes in it. Clothes that she hardly wears anymore. Now that my daughter is weeks away from giving birth to my first biological grandchild we have been setting up one of the rooms as a nursery. We've been cleaning and getting rid of stuff to prepare for the baby. We purchased a crib and moved a bed into the larger spare bedroom to make it a room for our 4 year old g-baby and the new baby. We have a ton of clothes for the new baby but my wife refuses to move her clothes out of the dresser so we can use it for the baby. In cleaning out the room we're also cleaning out the closet and I told my wife she could put her things in the top of the closet. She feels that's an inconvenience to her because now she's gotta look in the closet for her items instead of opening a drawer, Again, a 4 drawer dresser and she is using 3 of them for clothes she hardly wears. That means we've gotta pack all the baby's things into the one drawer. I never asked her to get rid of anything, just move

them to a more suitable part of the room. Again, clothes she hardly wears anymore, I feel, should go up in the top of the closet. :Leave the dresser for the new baby. How is this an inconvenience for her?

My daughter has her own apartment. We're just setting up the extra bedroom as a nursery so that when the baby comes to visit she'll have her own room. My daughter is not moving in. I just asked my wife to relocate her things to the top of the closet which will free up the entire dresser for the baby's things. I didn't ask her to give them way. In my wife's head, it's 4 drawers and I'm already using 3. The baby will be fine with 1.
