Is 36 weeks too late for a baby shower?

My partner has organised me one and I'll be 36 weeks exactly. It's only a small little gathering, is it not too late in the pregnancy? Xxx

Haha no but my cousin had it when she was 38 weeks and literally went into labour that evening 🤪 just in time by hours!

I’m having mine today and I’m 38 weeks! With an induction date a week today!! Never too late! If baby was to arrive you’d just turn it into a welcome baby party or something lol

@Rosie omg !! I have a feeling my baby girl is coming early, just have that gut feeling and she's soooo low down so hopefully she stays put for then 🤣 xx

Nope, I had my baby shower at around 35 weeks . They tend to happen by 35/36 weeks as you get to see everyone before you become full nest mode .

@Michalina funnily enough, we all were making light jokes about it, and when people left, around 3pm my cousin started getting contractions and gave birth that night! 😅 she did loose her mucus plug day before so.. haha I'm sure you'll be fine but even so, double celebrations and a day to remember!! Have the best babyshower 🥰

Have a family one at 32 weeks and another friend one at 38 weeks. If he comes early I’ll just have people gather on a new date / send over helpful newborn stuff. Diaries are mad and I care so little now about what’s “supposed to be” now. Have fun and enjoy being celebrated x

No it’s not too late. I had a baby shower planned but couldn’t have it because my baby came a few days before it.

I had mine today and I am 36 weeks! It was small, low key and just what I wanted. Go for it- celebrate your pregnancy journey and your baby! ⭐️🎉🧸
