The danger of this virus has got everyone quarantined in their houses, especially those who are more vulnerable to it like the elderly, expecting mothers and newborn babies. As a result of such danger and fear, parents are welcoming corona babies or babies taking birth during the coronavirus pandemic, without any celebrations.
Instead of prepping, enjoying, and decorating the house for the new family member, parents to be are busy sanitizing every nook and inch in their house to keep it as sanitized and clean as possible.
