[quote=Anonymous]I had two showers, one at work and one for family and friends. The one at work was mainly just food and gifts, and it was during lunch so my DH came. Family one was at my parents house. They have a nice country home with good outdoor space, and the shower was in May, so it was lovely. Totally co-ed, since DH and I have a lot of opposite sex friends. The men did the same thing the women did--socialized and pigged out. I really don't recall how many people were invited, but we invited extended family that we usually see over the holidays, and our close friends. My shower was about a month before my baby was born. DH and I paid for most of the things, but my mom bought some on her own. She picked out some decorations, and a cupcake stand, and bought some of the food. She also did most of the set-up. I think we had a great shower because it was just like we wanted it. We wanted a summer backyard BBQ feel, and that's what we had. The focus was on our new family, and it was so wonderful to be reminded what great family and friends we have, and the support system we were bringing our baby into. It was low-key and no dopey games or prizes. If I could change one thing, it would be to have not stressed so much about it, and just relax. [/quote]
