[quote=Anonymous]I am from a different culture and we do not buy anything for the baby until the baby is safely born. There is one custom that celebrates the pregnancy itself and it is the MIL or mom who will actually initiate this celebration. In the absence of MIL or mom, it is usually a female member of the family - aunt. grandma, SILs or any other married woman. The bridal showers I have seen in this country celebrated by people of my culture has followed the norm of a married female member of the family throwing it. I find it absolutely OK. Why not? Why should a non-family member bear the brunt of the cost of the party? Let the family do the prep and bear the cost.[/quote]
