  • If you don't want one don't.
    I'm not cuz my close friends and family r to far away. Ppl ask me if I want one but I don't cuz I hardly know ppl here. I think it would be weird.

    A baby registrey is great cuz u don't have to deal with junk u don't want. They r fun to make too ;)
  • Honestly the baby shower is more about the baby than you (hope that doesn't sound mean!). Don't think it's wrong for any reason. If someone offers to throw you one then I'd let them. And since you said you're young, it might even help you out a lot because people will get you a lot of the things your baby will need. Babies actually don't need a whole lot of stuff, but it still helps when other people get it for you.

  • Mommy2audrey:: you see thats how I feel worried because my family already looks at me worried and I know they say stuff.
  • Pebblesmommy: : yes I know its about the baby . I just dont wanna feel worried .
  • Sweetheart there is nothing wrong with people helping you. I was a young mom I took all the help I could get. You just need to put your pride aside and let them help you because that's all they want to do. Its not weird or wrong.
  • People around you are very excited for your baby and.they would just love the opportunity to shop for your baby. If someone offers to throw you a shower then consider it. Who doesn't love buying cute baby stuff?
  • Let your friends & family shower you! You deserve it :)
  • Don't feel weird at all about having one. Its time to bond with friends and talking about the blessing that is forming inside of you. If you are worried about what people would think, child they are going to think it anyway. Rejoice and have fun. You can make it just a gathering it doesn't have to be traditional, go out to eat at you and the baby's favorite resturant at this time, since I'm sure the baby is controling what you eat.
  • I didn't have one bc my MIL was kinda taking over. I didn't really care if I had one or not so it was easier and less stressful to not have one
