  2 weeks before the shower....was it already planned and invites sent out?

  In any case, yes, a meet the baby party is totally appropriate.

  This.  We hosted a "meet the baby BBQ".  We have an annual BBQ and just combined the two - twice (for #2 and #3.  Keep in mind that you do not register and gifts are optional.  If you didn't have a shower most likely a lot of people will bring a gift for baby.

  That's what I'm wondering about too. If it is already planned then I would say just go ahead with it. If people ask about what happened to your hostess tell them the truth, just in a nicer way than "she bailed on me." GL! 

  ETA: A get to know me party is fine to. Just cancel the shower or tell every one it has changed.

  1. That totally sucks.  I'm sorry your hostess bailed on you, not cool.

  2. It's totally appropriate to host a Meet the Baby party, especially if your shower was cancelled last minute.

  Is there anyone who'd be able to step in and be your hostess?  I assume invites have gone out already...
