Would you bother even having a baby shower??

Like I’m embarrassed to have one because it will be so small…

My baby shower 4 years ago, I invited her over 25 people, friends and family, and only a few members of my family ended up actually showing up. None of my “friends.” Once I became pregnant and a mom, all my friends (all childless) stopped having anything to do with me.

I’m now at a point in my life where I have literally zero friends, like when I say zero I mean zero. I have not spoken to someone I’m not related to in months.

And apart from no friends. I don’t have a lot of family that has anything to do with me either. I don’t even speak to my sister anymore (she said some really vile things about my daughter 3 years ago and I cut her off). And the family she is closer with now doesn’t speak to me because I don’t have a relationship with her.

I have at most 7 people that would come..just feels like a lot of work for such a small gathering. My mom, grandma, cousin, 1 aunt, and 2 of my sister in laws.

I don’t know. I should be excited and want to celebrate but feels like I’m celebrating alone.
