Because there are laws in place against money laundering as well as other illegal movements of funds. They have the right to refuse her entry if they don’t like the story where the money comes from. If it was only a problem going out why would they have a declaration limit in money coming in? Suggest you read a bit more widely.  Example https://www.nbcmiami.com/news/local/flight-attendants-miami-international-airport-money-laundering/1936523/

She has $50k cash in her checking account. If that’s not enough, she can show them other accounts with over $150k in them. She owns and operates a social media business, and her husband owns and operates a restaurant. 
 

CBP officer did not care to see any of the hospital transcripts or papers. She handed him a stack of documents and all he cared about was if she had a job in Russia (to go back to) or not. He didn’t care about funds and maybe didn’t even notice she was pregnant. She didn't hide anything. She said once she handed him a stack of documents to review, he just let them through to move on to the next in line.

Btw she’s 6 months pregnant, will give birth in June, and can stay until September. Should be plenty of time to get the birth certificate, SSN and even a checking account for baby.

You can't open a checking account for a baby as children under the age of 18 are not legally allowed to sign documents. What exactly would the need be for the child to have a bank account in the US anyway?

The answer would change in a week anyway, just like she went from being 3 months pregnant bankrolled by a somewhat rich by some standards daddy to being 6 months pregnant funded by her own business 

 

but yes good point on the baby not being able to have a checking account, I don’t think even debit cards on savings accounts are allowed until age 13.

So looks like SIL is about to overstay if she gave birth in June and arrived in April - or overstayed already. 6 months post birth would’ve been more than enough time to get a birth certificate and passport.
