Should I have 2 baby showers?

Question

I only wanted to have one baby shower, friends are throwing it for me and hubby but my mom is throwing a fit about not being involved with the baby. She wants to throw a traditional baby shower. Its not what I want but I feel like I have to compromise. :/

Answer

You don't have to. Nobody can force you to. But if they want to throw one for you and you aren't being expected to pay for it or plan it, I would say let them. It's an extra celebration 😊

Answer

Shit more stuff for you, Let your mom go all out for you . Just dont invite the same people to both because that would seem really weird . If you do want to do two , have people know both the dates and see which one they can come to or which is most convienient . They have two dates to show up and they can go to either or ?

Answer

Not a problem as long as the same groups of people aren't being invited to both. I had one with my family and one with my husband's family, as they live in another state.

Answer

If someone is willing I don't see why not...you'll get more stuff for baby. I mean if you really don't want to don't, but be happy you have more than one person wanting to celebrate your baby as some people have none...

Answer

We had three. We live hours away from family so we did one at home, one where we live now and one for work.

Answer

I didn't want two either I thought people would think I was gready. But I have such a big family that if both sides (hubby and mine) had all our family in the same room we would have had to rent a huge venue. Plus my family can be very overpowering so I let my mother in law throw the shower she wanted for her side of the family and my sisters threw one for our side. It was perfect! We got everything we needed and everyone was happy!

Answer

It's YOUR baby shower. Include your hubs and mom in the one you're having for your friends. If they wanna throw a fit let them. It's not their party it's yours.
