When is everyone planning their showers? Im due May23rd and have the date April 13th... Is there a too early or too late?
There are some crazy cute ideas on pinterest if ya'll havn't found them yet. I am having a girl, so the pinkness is too fun!
I'm doing a creat-it station for keepsakes from people. I'm gonna have some onsies, blocks and bibs for people to decorate with cute sayings.
Re: Shower?
The hostess has scheduled my shower for March 9th.

I'm due on May 28th and I'm having two showers. My MIL is throwing me one in NY on March 24th and my mom is throwing me one in PA on April 20th.
First comes love, next comes marriage, then comes...
This. If stuff is happening with your mom, maybe a friend would throw you a shower. Throwing your own is beyond tacky. Sorry.
To answer your question, I am due May 5 and my mom is throwing me a family shower February 10 (a little early but they are moving at the end of Feb), and my friends are throwing me one March 30.

Just keep swimming.
Sorry, I'm with them. Maybe a friend or another family member (aunt, cousin, sister, etc.) would offer if they knew that your mom wasn't going to throw you one. But don't throw your own.
Anyways, I'm due May 5th as well, and I actually already had my shower- my mom had it December 28th because Spouse and I were home for the holidays and wouldn't be back again until next Christmas (we live on the opposite coast of my family). So that was pretty early but nobody seemed to take issue with it, since it was the only time it made sense to have it.
Simply because it seems a little gift grabby. People aren't required to give a pregnant woman gifts and baby showers are simply a formal request for them. Kinda like planning your own bachelorette party.
My shower is being thrown by my mom. Due may 7th and the shower will be end of match beginning of April

O wow... never thought. Actually sadly enough it is about the gifts While hunny and I make decent money, I was hoping to have a load lifted in possibly receiving some diapers and stuff... lol
*embarrassed face*
At least you're being honest. Who doesn't love getting gifts right? But the PPs are right. Hopefully youve got a friend who can host because you absolutely should not. You would be inviting everyone to bring you gifts.
I'm due may 20th and my mom is throwing me a shower on march 23rd and 2 of my aunts are throwing me one toward the end of April. I kind of wish we could do it earlier but that is what works for them!

My cousin and sisters are planning one for me but I have no idea when. I'm sure they'll let me know when it's closer. I figure probably towards the end of April of beginning of May. I am due May 25 but they usually cut things close.
I don't think there's a too late. Some people are quite uncomfortable at the end of pregnancy (I was last time) but at least at a shower you can just relax. (or at least I plan to)
I know the shower will be low key because I like it that way but I wouldn't care whatever is planned. No games and no creative stations, just lots of food drinks and talking.

I am due May 3rd and my shower is March 9th. My mom booked it two months out so I'm not too uncomfortable at the shower.
I'm due May 7th and my shower is scheduled for March 16th. This is mainly because spring break is that week for both myself and DH's niece who is planning on coming with MIL, SIL, and Aunt in-law.
My friend is hosting the shower so she is pretty much coming up with all ideas other than using the theme we have picked for LO's nursery.
