[quote=Anonymous]I don't think you're wrong, it's kind of OTT on their part honestly, but it sounds like your husband will be there and maybe it's not so much about throwing you a baby shower, but that they wanted to do something for his promotion but then felt like it should also include you and your baby, which is a nice gesture, I think, and with him there it will probably be fine.

If you're inclined to go I think you can either just not consider it "your baby shower" and just a party for your husband where they will also give you some baby gifts, or you can lean into it a bit and have your husband ask if he can invite your two friends. I guess his co-workers know that you just moved and you work remotely, so they are trying to be nice.

Generally though I would expect them to have celebrated this with your husband at the office (we've collected gifts and had showers in the conference room with just the dad) so it is kind of overstepping a bit and you're not wrong to feel like it's awkward.[/quote]
