would you invite these people
1st- a coworker, I am good friends w/ 3 of my coworkers, we see each other regularly outside of work and they will be invited. Another one of my coworkers I started with, so when they have union dinners for new teachers or teachers w/ less than 5 years experience we go together (this has happened maybe 3 times). We also talk when we have time at work. I enjoy spending time with her and would like to invite her, but we don't really have that hangout outside of work relationship. She is also friendly w/ my 3 close friends so I'm sure she'd have no problem hanging out w/ them
2nd- 2 of DH's friends girlfriends. The one gf I like but hardly ever see, she's been to our wedding and we've hung out with them as couples several times. The other gf, actually fi, I don't really care for and have not spent much time with her. The girls know each other so they'd probably make plans to come and hang out together. The only reason I'm thinking of inviting them is because DH has been friends w/ their BFs since elementary school

Re: would you invite these people
sounds like evryone needs to be invited
it won't hurt anything to invite them all
I wouldn't invite your DH's friends GF's since they are not close to you. Unless, of course, you're having a couples shower.
I would invite the coworker for sure.
#1 - I would invite.
#2 - I would not. I've been the "girlfriend" before and I have NOT been invited to a shower, and it was fine. I wouldn't expect to be invited, to be honest. DH's friend, not mine.

Agreed.
It doesn't look like it would hurt anything. So why not?
The more the merrier.
after anovulatory diagnosis and TTC for 1 1/2yrs with several medicated cycles and one chemical pregnancy, we have our first bundle of joy!
IT'S A GIRL!

I don't take one single minute for granted.
Just another opininion, as if I were the "girlfriend". While I wouldn't expect to be invited, I would have really like the opportunity to attend. DH and I met later in life, and his friend circle was pretty set. The wives would talk about showers that they had all been to at our gatherings- I would have really enjoyed being "welcomed" into their group as well as having something to contribute to the conversation.
