Is 28 weeks too early to have a baby shower?

I need to book this spot that’s having a New Year’s deal and I need to decide on a date for a baby shower this week.

I had mine a month before my due date and it was far too late. I regret not doing mine sooner. I was tired, I was swollen and I genuinely felt not great. However, if I’d had done mine at 28 weeks I’d have been great as I had a really good pregnancy up until the last 4 weeks

I think thata a perfect time. I left mine till 1 month before due day and I have to have her emergently at 36 weeks had to entirely cancel the weekend of. Rescheduled for after she turned 2 months. Wish I got to experience it in my pregnancy as i spent the entire time uncomfortable worried about the heat and germs. I'd say better early as anything could happen

Nope. I've already had mine ( we did it at 24 weeks).

28-32 weeks is like the magic weeks to have a shower! The belly is showing well but you're no where near as swollen and hurting as after 32 weeks

I think anywhere from 28 to 32 weeks is good for a baby shower. Your still in the early third trimester, belly is a good size and you can still manage long hours of walking a pictures and etc. anything later than that it’s just to daunting on your body.
I PROM at 34+4 weeks so with second baby I’ll be 31 weeks for my shower.

I did it at around that time! It was the best decision!!! Gives you more time to see what you are missing and if baby comes early you would’ve had your baby shower 🥰
That’s what happened to me 😅
