[quote=Anonymous]Yes, please dont make the pregnant woman host in her own home even if you promise to take care of everything. My closest friend was like I am hosting a shower at your house for you, and I nicely declined but then she kept pushing and I was furious because I did not want to have to clean, prep, etc. for a shower when we are in the process of getting ready for a new baby. We have so many house projects going on to get ready for the baby that it would push the timeline and then cleaning and needing our oldest to be taken care of and out of the house as well as our geriatric dog. It was a firm no and she seemed annoyed by it but thats not my problem. Also, if she wants to spend $500 or more dollars, we need two car seats! Hosting a shower is expensive and it wasnt really helpful for our first. Hardly anyone bought off the registry- even though it was basic $15-100 items. We were struggling financially and ended up having to buy all the necessities anyways. [/quote]
