[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've never attended a baby shower that was not hosted by one or both of the grandmas. Then again, in my group of family/friends, these are all huge affairs that include family/friends/co-workers - the whole "village". So there hasn't been a need to have separate showers that are hosted and attended only by friends, for example. It is eye-opening to me that people find this rude![/quote]

Yes, me too! I actually would feel guilty my busy friends with jobs, kids, etc were trying to coordinate my shower. My retired aunt or MIL who never worked have the time. Plus family is excited about a new baby in a different and special way...no surprise that they would want to plan the celebration.

I am going to a shower today, hosted by the grandma and great-grandma to be. Close friends and family will be there and I can't wait to celbrate with my frind. Plus I am glad the responsibility did not fall to me with the demands of work and months of awful morning sickness.
