September 2024 Babies 🇺🇸

No baby shower for me.

I’m 34+4 weeks now and I didn’t plan on doing a baby shower because I’m just not into it. I’ve been gifted second hand or have bought most of what I will need for baby and I honestly feel a baby shower is an expense I would rather use to buy anything else needed for baby or myself… a week ago my sister called me really excited about planning and paying for a baby shower for me… she hasn’t done anything and I really didn’t know how she was going to pay for any of it since she has a daughter going into 7th grade in a week and she has not been working due to an injury but i didn’t want to tell her no because she was so excited… She has not done anything to plan… she told my SIL to buy a cake, decorations and games then she made invites but didn’t purchase it she just took a screenshot and said that was it… not sure how I would put my registries on there for anyone to click on to but whatever. It ended up stressed me so much because I was having to call locations to reserve a spot and nothing is available, find games, finish registries from target and Amazon and speak with my SIL about a cake. Today, I called it off and just told her that I really don’t want a baby shower and how much it has been stressful for me having to basically plan it all even though she said she would…
I really don’t care to have a baby shower especially if I’m planning and paying for everything. Anyways.. rant over.
