Ignore her invite! Or, as I would do, get something that is not on the registry and take a bottle of plonk to enjoy yourself with! ;P

Haha this is interesting considering I have just ordered the invites for my baby shower.

First of all I think the Facebook invite is tacky! For a bbq or catch up - yes, for a baby shower - no.

I dont think asking for no kids is being rude personally but there is a way to word it. I have just put on my invites:

Please note - to keep the atmosphere casual and relaxed please let your children have a daddy and me day. We are sure you will enjoy the break as well!!!

For some people this may come across rude but I have a few friends who have kids that are absolute brats and I know that unless I specifically put something about no kids on there then they will bring them.

In terms of a the gift registery, my friend suggested that I have one but I didnt feel confortable. I dont like people feeling pushed into buying something off of there. Everyone has a different budget and i'm having a baby shower to spend time with my friends, not so I can expect gifts. I am seriously organised and have bought pretty much everything I want for bub already so I have put RSVP's and gift idea's to: ******
That way if people want suggestions on what I need or want then they can find out.

As for the bring a plate thing - downright rude!
