When to have a Shower for Multiples

Just wondering if you had your shower for your multiples a little earlier than a woman normally would for a singleton shower since multiples often come early... Please let me know how many weeks you were when you had your shower! THANKS

Yes, I had my shower at 29 weeks. I was so afraid I would go early or be on bedrest and not be able to make it.

My twins were the second pregnancy so I didn't worry about a shower. however I did give birth at 34.5 weeks so with a multiple pregnancy you should have the shower early.

Week 29.

The advice I got from a lot of BTDT moms was to have the shower no later than week 30.

I barely walked around my shower and I was wiped outChat Icon Chat Icon just from sitting and opening the presents. I wouldn't go any later than that, towards the end you don't have much energy.

I had mine at 28 weeks. Good thing too, because I went on bed rest 2 weeks later!
