Ladies - a friend of mine is really keen on hosting a baby shower for me. I have a few reservations though:

  • None of my family members have had a baby shower in the past. I don't want to be seen as setting a 'precedent' in the family
  • I don't like the idea of expecting guests to buy gifts
  • I am a little supersticious in that I don't want to get too ahead of myself and 'celebrate' too much before the baby is born


Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
