Content of banner at new mum's house
The guest, @thephenomenalgoodness, videoed the banner, which had a message for prospective guests who want to see the newborn.
The banner contained things guests are forbidden from doing, including not kissing the baby, or making any negative remarks about the new mum, the baby or the child's father.
Guests were initially advised to use a hand sanitiser before touching the baby, but then the parents backtracked, saying only the caregiver can touch the baby, or unless a guest was given the newborn to carry. Guests were also warned not to squeeze money into the baby's hand or spray the kid with money.
The information on the banner read:
"Dear awesome guest,
"Thank you for visiting. We appreciate your goodwill and support so far. Thank you for sharing in our joy.
"As you already know, bundles of joy are usually cute but also delicate. Kindly take note of the following:
