    Smile When is the ideal time of pregnancy to have a baby shower?

    Hi ladies,

    I'm just curious when you had your baby showers during your pregnancy or when is recommended?

    Thanks in advance.x

    Hi Curlygirly
    I had mine about 6 weeks before DS was due to be born. I don't know if this is recommended, but it worked for us I still had enough energy to have a good time, and enough of a belly to call it a day and have everybody understand ITMS.
    Congrats and have a great time!

    I had mine at thirty weeks, so I had time to see what I had, and still needed .... Also don't forget peoples birthdays or big occasions that might happen at the same time.... So everyone you want to come, can attend.

    I was 37+ weeks at mine and I was very uncomfortable but that was last week and it was that hot 44 degree day which made it that way.

    Had mine about 36 weeks for DD! Had a smaller "celebration" for DS when I was around 38 I think!

    Completely OT, when I saw this post on tapatalk it looked like it was titled "When is the best time in pregnancy to have a baby?"



    Thought I'd better check it out!

    I had three... one at 22 weeks, a shared one with a colleague who was 36 weeks. A bit too early, really, but it was two or three weeks before I stopped working, so reasonable timing.
    One at 28 weeks, which was fun and good timing.
    One at 30 weeks which was super ace, and perfect timing, although I just about laughed the baby out there and then!
