Baby Shower - Did you know?
I am curious if anyone knew when their baby shower was going to be. My MIL is insisting that I should know to help them plan (guest lists, date, etc.) - but I REALLY don't want to know. I just feel like I want it to be as much of a surprise as possible even though I may find out tid-bits here and there. Help me keep her quiet!

Re: Baby Shower - Did you know?
I knew about it. I wasn't suppose to have one due to MIL drama and cultural beliefs, but my SIL threw one for me about 3-4 weeks before my due date. I knew the date, where it was going to be, who was invited, but I didn't know any other details.

Re: Baby Shower - Did you know?
I know about my NY one since it is this Saturday and I have to fly in for it.
My Saint Louis one I *think* is at the end of the month but that one is a surprise.

Re: Baby Shower - Did you know?
I know mine is on 10/22 and I know where!
I feel better knowing because at least I'll make sure my makeup looks good!

Re: Baby Shower - Did you know?
No, I was completely surprised. I didn't want it to be a surprise but no one listened to me. I wanted to know when it was so I could make sure I looked and felt comfortable. I hate the way I look in all the pictures from my shower.

Re: Baby Shower - Did you know?
You can always provide them with a guest list and help them with any other details. They can definitely keep the place, and time a surprise for you. And you can always tell them how you envision it as well.

Re: Baby Shower - Did you know?
Part of me wanted to know and another part wanted it to be a surprise.
BUT I know everything! I needed to help my mom find a place since I don't live in LI (and she does) and I wanted my best friend who lives in CA to be able to fly in, etc.
My best friend is actually doing the invites and she's going to send me one

I know about mine for the same reason. I'm also helping to plan it, which I like. I helped pick out the invites and favors. It was fun.

Re: Baby Shower - Did you know?
After my bridal shower drama (it was a surprise but it was ruined) I wanted to know about my baby shower. I am helping my mom plan it and it is at my house.

Re: Baby Shower - Did you know?
I wanted to know about it. I was sooo surprised for my bridal shower, that was enough for me! I wanted to be prepared, it took me a while to calm down from being so surpised at the bridal shower! I think your MIL should go by what YOU want, since you want to be surprised, they should try to surprise you!

Re: Baby Shower - Did you know?
I'd have to select the invisible "other" option. I didn't have one
ETA: If I HAD had one, I would've liked to know.

Re: Baby Shower - Did you know?
I wanted to know. I'm a planner and need to know when the shower is going to be and where. In fact, I had to push my mom about the date b/c she wanted to do it way too late. The rest I'm leaving up to my mom and sis.
I'm SO happy I know this time (as opposed to my bridal shower) I am really looking forward to it!
