Shows everyone what kind of people THEY ARE. They would NOT be invited a second time!
You are not supposed to throw your own shower!
Friends or family give you a shower,it’s rude or greedy to give yourself one. If someone gives you a gift it comes from the heart
Is there a narcissist in the family?
Are you the scapegoat?
You betrayed your own intuition & allowed yourself to be hoovered in to having a baby shower & you got stung. Badly. I’m so sorry this happened to you & l hope you never second- guess your dear self again.
Lesson learned.
Hugs.
Congrats on your pregnancy!
And these people call themselves your friends. So sorry this happened to you they’re not worth it. Just focus on your Health and stay healthy for your baby.
They were punishing you for not having the shower in the first place. Pretty petty of them but you shouldn’t be throwing your own party. That’s what your FRIENDS are suppose to do.
You are surrounded by so many selfish people. Don’t understand parents or grandparents. I still haven’t gotten to see my latest great-grandson and I’m very sorry about that, but I understand. I get lots of pictures. He’s adorable. Stay safe honey.
I’m so sorry hun. It was very rude of them to demand this and that. You should post your registry Im sure quite a few of us would send a gift to you. My baby shower was with some other woman in another state that I didn’t even know and wasn’t comfortable with and I gave birth a lot earlier and they still did my baby shower with out me which pissed me off bad but my ex husband did go get the gifts tho and the family members who didn’t go came in person after I got back home with my daughter, they came and saw us both in person and brought the gifts which was nice even tho I was pissed they had the nerve to throw my baby shower with out me their and they got snobby with me.
Your decision to not have a baby shower is fine . Un should have got with your first reaction not have one . U and your husband should work to get the child’s , needs . Showers r fun events , where people can laugh and socialize . Years ago everyone bought stuff , and they were held by sisters , or parents . The process has changed , the people who RSVP and didn’t show up was rude of them .
Bad behavior , this pandemic has highlighted the worse in people .
Move forward
Wait let me see if I understand this. You registered for items you wanted for your baby and expected people to get them even if they were not invited to shower. When you found out you wouldn’t get a gift if there was no shower you threw a shower for yourself. Then no one showed up
Gee…I wonder why!
Sorry about this. Just great that newborn can still have an azing future without a baby shower. You can feel upset and tell them how you feel but youve got to let it go after because other people’s decison is beyond your control. And it’s you who made a concious decipsion to do it. They requested and then you approved. I hope we can make decisioms next not based on how people will feel but based on how it’s going to possibly affect our LO. If they came and covid also was present, that would be very scary. I think what happened was a blesing in dosguise.
Be upset for a little while then get on with your life. There will be plenty more disappointments to come. Take them one at a time.
Cause of covid I’m doing a drive by drop gift off in front yard like a parade kinda
I am so sorry. They are so wrong!
That is so rude. Who black mails a person into a shower I would be so pisst.shouldve stuck to your. No Shower. Remember when peeps throw bday or anniversary partys. Karma is a bitch oh and don’t take baby to see grand patents
That’s so fucked up. I’m so sorry that happened to you
I’m sorry. Please stay safe.
That’s so sad!! Jerks!!
