Baby Shower

How soon before your due date should you have your baby shower? I'm due July 10th, and was thinking of waiting until the school year ends but that's only about a month before. Should I go earlier?

Most opt for 32-36 weeks pregnant

You never know what’ll happen with your body/baby so IMO it doesn’t matter :) I’m due July 24 and my shower will be in May!

I was 34 1/2 weeks

I wanted to have mine earlier than the norm so I had more time to get everything done before having my son so I opted for 28 weeks

I did mine at 34 weeks. 32 weeks was Xmas weekend and 33 weeks was new years so we kind of had to wait for 34weeks, but I would probably try to aim for around 32-34 weeks!

I had mine at about 34 weeks I think

I think 2 months before is ideal

I'm having mine at 33 weeks

I would do as the lady above mentioned, 32-36wks pregnant! I went 5wks early with one of mine and that could happen to anyone! This way you could have everything in case you go earlier!

I’m having mine two months before.

I did mine at 36 weeks
Its what ever your comfortable with and if you think you'll be okay for the whole day I struggled being so far along but everyone is different

I waited until i was 36w. Personally i wanted it as late as possible. I had it the same weekend i started my mat leave

I had a surprise (socially distanced) baby shower in my Mum’s garden at 33 weeks, extra precaution being early in case I was unlucky enough to catch Covid and have time to recover before going to hospital. In normal times I think I would have had two/three weeks later (when hopefully pandemics are a thing of the past)! Do what you feel is best for you and fits with guests :)

I’m due 4th July and will be having my baby shower end of April 😊

I had mine at 37 weeks and I wish I would have a little sooner. Only because I started stressing what if baby comes early ect.
