Valentines weekend baby shower?

Question

On valentine's day I will be 32 weeks pregnant. And my mom has just showed interest in throwing me a baby shower. I thought it might be cute to have it the day before valentine's because its a Saturday and people usually have plans for the day of. But not sure if people would more likely make a weekend out of valentine's. Help?!

Answer

We are celebrating Valentine's day on the 13th. Sunday is our day to get back ready for the week. I think you should do a different weekend. People could do all weekend stuff or just go Saturday night. Idk I wouldn't be happy to get invited to a shower on a Saturday that was the day before Valentine's day. But that's just me

Answer

Most people will probably celebrate on Saturday (trying to beat the Valentine day wait and bc most people go back to work and use Sunday as a lazy day). Trying to plan parties on holidays just does not work.

Answer

I had mine Labor Day Weekend and attendance was low because of the holiday. I would avoid a holiday weekend if possible.

Answer

Thank you ladies so much. This helps me out alot.

Answer

People will want to spend it with their SO and I assume would make excuses or not show up (not to be mean but that's what I'd do). I'm sure people are very happy for you but it's choosing your baby and something u decided to do over their SO? (Again I don't mean that to sound harsh) I'm sure people would be more excited if it was another time and wouldn't want to leave early etc

Answer

I'm going to say to go ahead and plan on another weekend. My birthday is on Valentine's Day and I can tell you that it's been difficult my entire life to get people together on the weekend of Valentine's Day.

Answer

You're likely to have fewer attendees, because a lot of people will be celebrating Valentine's Day that Saturday. Not only will it conflict with other's plans, but it's also an extra expense. I think it would be more considerate to have it another weekend.

Answer

A lot of people will celebrate Saturday instead of Sunday, I would do it a different weekend

Answer

My family planned a "sprinkle" for me ON Valentine's Day. I'm cool with it cause I would prefer low attendance. I feel strange having an event for a second baby and I know that it will keep the numbers to people who really want to come and give an out to those who don't. I'm one of those women who think second showers are iffy. Plus my first is only 3, we still have all the basics. It'll be pretty much family only.

Answer

We will be doing Valentine's Day the day before. We usually do before or after. I wouldn't make it on the "holiday" weekend if you want everyone to go. Do it the weekend before😊
