[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Similarly ambivalent about a shower, but people keep asking/offering, so I think we're going to do a co-ed gathering-- more of a party/chance to see friends before we get bogged down with exhaustion and new baby stuff. I think if you make it about both you and DH, and less of a true "shower" (with games/present opening/etc.) you may find it less stressful and more fun.[/quote] We did this. It was really just a huge party. I am pretty antisocial but it was great meeting his childhood friends, extended family, etc. Kids were invited to come, as we set them up in the playroom. We also had drinks. The guys loved this. We chat the entire time. We did a couple games. The onsie decoration was a big hit! We didn't open gifts. I hate doing that. Instead, we personalized a thank you note with a picture of our newborn in the onsie the person made. [/quote]
