[quote=Anonymous]I didn’t have a baby shower. I announced my first pregnancy when I was 6-7 months and showing. I never announced my 2nd - just baby pics after he was born. I didn’t refuse photos, but I also didn’t comment on any photos that I was pregnant or pose to accentuate my belly. No one was at the hospital besides my husband and doula for either birth. We didn’t have visitors with our first for almost 2 weeks. We’re not controlling or weird, we’re just private and I am an introvert. We also didn’t make a big deal of it or make any grand pronouncements about what we would or would not do. In that way, our behavior was very much aligned with our pre-child personas and behaviors and no one seemed surprised or disappointed. [/quote]
