Am I crazy?!

Question

So I’m due with a boy Feb 20th. Because of the holidays and my daughter only being 1 my family said I shouldn’t have a baby shower. 
Well I’m having one anyways because every baby should be celebrated. I’m not doing a registry or asking for gifts only diapers and wipes. 
Because baby boy is due in February I didn’t want to do the shower too early and was thinking January but decided to do it the first week of February (February 1st). Well #pregnancybrain occurred and my husband works so we settled on February 8th. 
Is that too late?! I feel like I’m crazy for having it so late (my family and friends think I’m crazy too)

Answer

Oh cool I love the idea of a diaper and wipes shower! If that's what your doing then I think your date sounds reasonable.

Answer

I think it’s fine if you’re not high risk. Just make sure you’ve already covered the big things, so if baby comes early you at least have a place to put them down and some feeding essentials. Then the baby shower can fill the gaps.

Answer

I'm due Feb 5th. We live in the Midwest and the weather from now through the end of Feb is always unpredictable and ugly. We are going to have a "meet the baby" shower in the end of March or early April so we can be sure of what we need and our extended family all want to be there

Answer

I’ve had a baby shower and had already given birth. (She came 3 weeks early) so its never too late.

Answer

I am due February 15th and I’m having my BabyShower Saturday January 18th. I thought about the holidays too cuz I wasn’t doing a BabyShower but all my family and friends kept telling me that I need to have one because this is my 2nd and LAST baby and it’s been 17 years.

Answer

I think it's crazy that everyone is against a sprinkle for your boy when you have a girl. Unless you dress them all gender neutral? I can think of lots of gifts to bring... books, boy clothes, double stroller, diapers, wipes, games for the siblings to share when they're older, etc.

Answer

It’s a bit risky but worse case scenario, you have the baby beforehand. My cousin gave birth the day before her shower. We still had it, took tons of pictures and then brought the presents to her house for her to open later.

Answer

Mine is January 4th
