😖Baby Lunch vs Baby Shower???
I'm 31 weeks pregnant and the idea of having a baby shower never came up as an actual event. My boyfriend already has 4 kids and this is my first. He's been through it and hates the idea of a baby shower. I also don't like it because it's already been stressful trying to plan, i have 2 best friends, neither of which will pay for it and 1 who doesn't seem the slightest bit interested at all, and I really don't enjoy so much attention.
.
I thought about having a baby lunch. I love eating out so having a little get together at a local restaurant would be nice. My boyfriend shot it down saying "that's ghetto and weird." I like the casual aspect of it involving just some friends and family. I've read posts from other women that have done it and actually enjoyed it.
.
My boyfriend is really making me feel like shit because he's not even trying. He knows it means a lot to me to try to have the best experience with this pregnancy, since this is my 7th pregnancy and 1st baby, but he's not helping at all.
.
I need some ideas. I'm also spending most on my baby's nursery so whatever plan for a "shower" I have has to be low cost and simple.
.
My boyfriend gets really bad anxiety being in front of large crowds, another reason for not having an actual shower.
