[quote=Anonymous]Hi all,  I’m struggling with some thing and want some opinions. I have infertility and had several miscarriages some early, some later, but it finally looks like we are going to get to take home this baby as I’m pretty far along now.  Because of our struggles baby gifts for others have been hard for me and although we got them for very close friends and obviously where I attended showers, there are a lot of people we just congratulated and didn’t send gifts to because I just couldn’t face looking at a registry.  Most people know about what we have gone through and now literally everyone is asking for our registry and I’m really overwhelmed and feel very guilty for not getting gifts for these people when they had their babies.  So far we have turned down all requests to throw a shower or requests for our registry by saying we are superstitious (which is true). But now that she will be here soon, that won’t work.  So I guess I just make/give out the registry and assume people don’t begrudge what I did before.  Or what?[/quote]
