baby shower hasn't happened yet but originally my mom had told me "oh i have some amazing ideas for your baby shower!" eventually adding "we can have it on this day at this time doing a dr seuss theme, it will be a lot of fun"

i didn't know she had no intention of actually putting the baby shower together, i asked her about invites and she didn't seem interested so i designed and ordered some because I'm kind of running out of time, i put her as the rsvp contact because i assumed she would be putting it together at least a little, like a really simple shower

i decided on a place to have it and how much it would cost (opted for a cheap pavilion rental so i don't have to have people at my house or hers and can entertain kids with the playground within an eye shot)... so we go to do a registry today and i mention that she's the one hosting the baby shower and i didn't expect her to have this "no way in hell" look on her face as she responds with an "uhhh... suuure" and it honestly has broken my heart so i guess I'll just proceed with getting it all together myself 😢 i don't have any close chick friends and my MIL has no intention because I've told her my mom was helping me plan it.

i just don't know why she would put it in my head that she would LOVE to do it then turn around and leave me hanging so close to time, it just hurts 😔

now I'm debating on if i should even bother financing it and preparing for it or maybe I'm just overreacting
