How does the baby shower work?

I am assuming its the same as a bridal shower... that a close friend or family member throws it for you and its a surprise. Am I right? I mean, I loved my shower and I loved that it was a big part of the whole wedding thing and I didnt stress about it once because it was out of my hands.

I think it is similar, someone close to you holds it.

My sister and mom are hosting mine, I know the date and that is it. I think they like to make everything else a surprise mainly because I hate surprisesChat Icon

Usually it is a surprise & it is thrown by someone for you. Unless you are in my family...then you have to do everything yourself all the timeChat Icon

Re: How does the baby shower work?

No surprise for me. Its like you know its coming, DUH!
My mom and I think my MIL is taking care of it. More my sister actually.
Im also involved. Anything to help and make it easier and I dont feel stressed by it. Im enjoying it.

I was surprised for my bridal shower..I wouldnt lurk on my registry, nothing. I was good.

My Mother and my MIL planned the whole thing although they fought about a lot of stuff so kept asking me stuff anyway. But in the end it was wonderful.

I asked for it NOT to be a surprise.

There's enough surprising stuff that happens with pregnany, you know?? Chat Icon

It's funny, because I was talking to my sister last night, who was my MOH and did all the wedding shower prep.

And she says to me "I thought I was in charge of this too, but mom is taking over!! I guess it's different when you aren't the designated go-to-girl!"

I thought that was funny.
