[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thank you for all the responses. I am very grateful to my mom and SIL for throwing this shower for me. I'm uncomfortable demanding they invite the in laws when apparently they don't want to. I feel like my place is to show up, open presents, and thank everyone profusely. No?

and yes, this is everyone's first grandchild and nephew on both sides.

I get along great with the in laws, no issue there. It's been suggested I owe DH an apology but I don't feel like I did anything wrong, except get caught between families. Thx again.[/quote]

LOL, way to go against the thread advice and opinion that, in a DCUM first, is about 100% in agreement.  Why post if you only want one answer?  You're wrong and your thinking and your mom's and SIL's thinking is wrong and icky.  Good luck to you - this bodes horrendously for how things will go in the future.  But if you can't see it or think you're fine, then you deserve the result and the world you are creating.

p.s.  Are you afraid of your mom and SIL?  "Apparently they don't want to"?  Ask them if it is the case and why.  Tell them why you really think it's best and ask them if they could.  So opening presents and being a gracious guest is more important than alienating people (including your DH) and the shit you are getting ready to create?  Oh boy.  Again, good luck with all of that![/quote]
