Same as you, but on my side of family culture wise we don’t really do baby showers after second baby
to heck with her, they are not for broke people. They are for friends and family to get together and meet the baby and if they want give a gift welcoming the baby into the family. Not having the shower is not going to make your mother-in-law like you if she doesn’t. I had a mother-in-law like this and it sucked, she never did like me even after 3 kids. Let your sister-in-law give you a baby shower and don’t let the mean ole lady get to you. It is for your baby not for her. good luck

That is total BS! EVERYONE deserves to have a baby shower. It’s your life! It’s your baby! Do the traditional thing, and make yourself happy! If your mother in-law already dislikes you. Having the shower or not isn’t going to change anything. Congratulations and do EVERYTHING that makes you happy.

Celebrities have lavish baby showers all the time, I’m pretty sure their not broke or need anything. This is your time and your life don’t let your MIL take that joy from you. she sounds like a snob and you don’t need that negativity in your life. Have the baby shower and enjoy every minute of it. How would having a baby shower offend someone? I would be blunt and say to your MIL “hey if you cant afford a gift your still welcome to come.”

We had one for my daughter because she had her second son 9 years after the first. They were in need of all the baby items. For that reason I didn’t invite family members because they did come to her first one. All of her friends wanted to so something for them to help them out so we had the shower… she was so blessed to get the basic items she needed because of the time that had passed from her first son. Actually was told after she had an ectopic pregnancy and 3 miscarriages she probably couldn’t get pregnant… A Blessed Surprise!

I was the same way as your mother in law…I was always I don’t need a baby shower I can afford to buy my kids whatever they needed. BUT if I got a surprise baby shower I appreciated it since I hadn’t asked for it…
I love the idea of having a welcome shower. Your friends are happy for you and want to share in your joy.
Your MIL will get over it. Besides she sounds unreasonable.

Have the shower and enjoy it. It’s about family and friends getting together and celebrating a new life that’s coming into the world. And it’s not fair to your side of the family to not have one. I had a MIL like that at one time. I learned to do what I wanted to do cause no matter what you do or say you’ll never make her happy ( if she’s anything like my ex- MIL and it sounds like she is) you do you and don’t worry about what she says. She’s not paying for it so who cares what she says.

Have the shower! It’s not for her. It’s to celebrate “your” baby (& not hers). Maybe don’t invite her either if she’s so negative. Good luck & I hope your baby is born safely
Have your baby shower it is not for those who cannot afford things but rather a celebration of new life it’s exciting do not let your mother-in-law offend you or hurt your feelings and most of all do not let anyone steal your joy of the precious life you’re about to bring into this world enjoy it and praise God for it if your mother-in-law has issues with it she can stay home!

A baby shower is a celebration of your family extending. I’ve had baby showers with three out of four of my kids and gifs weren’t required a majority of the time they were just barbecues and get together to celebrate the fact that there was a new addition coming into the family. Have that baby shower girl it’s for you and your family. And if friends and some members of your family bring stuff for the new baby and for you it’s because they love you.

Have the biggest baby shower you can afford and enjoy it. You can’t control how other people feel and if your mother in law feels baby showers are for broke people, then she can keep her snotty ass at home!
Have the baby shower
Baby showers are for friends and family to welcome you into parenthood. Even celebrities have them. I had one for my daughter and had a friend say it is another way to have people pay foe your baby! I was appalled and explained my opinion of a baby shower then told her I was sorry she felt that way and please throw the invite away as we don’t need your gift! She showed up anyway and is now mad that my daughter gave away the pacifiers she gave! We don’t believe in them!! You can’t please everyone and please let your sil shower you!

Umm, to hell with her!! Baby showers are a tradition! Let her be the resentful, hateful and bitter piece of sh** that she is… but don’t let it detour you from doing what you want! If she feels that strongly about it, she can keep her ugly a$$ at home the day of the shower. Don’t let that sanctimonious bit** ruin your day, your life, your marriage or your joy. Hang tough sweetie!
Do what you want your mil sounds bitter. Don’t let a bitter woman ruin your life. Live it how you want.

Personally i had a shower for my first baby it was so unorganized wen i was pregnant with my daughter i had more fun buying my own stuff and they are 4 yrs apart.
If possible have a large outdoor co-ed one! Make it as “non-traditional” in her opinion as possible. Make sure all your friends & family are there celebrating your soon to be new baby. Invite her but make sure your hubby is there to put her in her place.
I had baby showers for all 3 of my bio kids & a welcome party for our bonuses daughter (she was 4).

Have the shower and make sure you invite her. It’s not about being broke it’s about showing the mom and baby with gifts of love.
That’s crazy. A baby shower is to shower the mother to be with gifts for her lil blessing. If it were really a broke person thing, do you really think so many celebrities would have them…smh
What better thing to celebrate than a new baby… Invite her anyway but don’t let it rain on your parade if she doesn’t show. You take the high road.
Fuck her. If you wanna do the baby shower then do it. It’s not for broke people, it’s to celebrate you and your baby 
Let your sil throw you one and dont invite mil
A shower isn’t just about getting stuff it’s about celebrating the baby!!! You could always have a baby shower and put a note that gifts are not expected on the invite. Almost Everyone will bring gifts anyway but then it might make your MIL happier since you made it clear the point of the shower isn’t gifts. I don’t agree with her opinion at all but it might help ease the tension of the shower a bit.
I think it all depends on what you feel a baby shower means. Some believe it is a celebration of a family extended, some feel it is only for first time moms, some feel there should be one for every child. In my opinion your MIL’s comments were hurtful and out of line. If keeping the peace in the family is what you want make it more of a celebration, don’t call it a baby shower. Include all family and friends male/female with no expectation of gifts. If people bring gifts accept them graciously but don’t make a big deal by opening them at the event. Open later and send thanks yous.
Baby shower is great idea and let ur sis in law do it ignore ur mil
Stop worrying about what your mother in law is projecting onto you!! Do what you want and have the baby shower!! Baby showers are to support the new baby and the mother and now father!! Stop worrying about what other people think!! Have a great time!! It is a great time to get together and celebrate your new family member to be!!!

Have your baby shower, attendance is optional! I feel a baby shower is for people to celebrate your new little one coming and to make sure that after the baby is born you aren’t bombarded with guests when you’re already tired from adjusting your sleep schedule and trying to bond with the baby. Not to mention all the illnesses right now the baby would be exposed to with an abundance of guests! The shower is not for her and if she is already talking bad about you, I don’t think having it is going to make or break your relationship… congratulations on your new little one!

Have a baby shower. Enjoy its. It’s for you and the baby. And if your sil wants to throw it even better. It’s shows that she doesn’t agree with your mil. I had a baby shower for my son two years ago and he was my third child. Don’t let your negative thinking MIL get to you. Let her think what she wants. She’s welcome not to come if she chooses not to

you should have your baby shower and tell your mother in law to educate herself on them
Have a huge over the top shower with games, the biggest cake you can find and anything else that would be fun. Buy whatever you like for the baby and wrap it up super pretty so that when MIL arrives she is astounded by all the gifts and pageantry. Buy a gorgeous outfit for yourself and take lots of pictures. Congratulations on your newest little one and enjoy your day!
M I L is not who it would be for, it’s for the baby. She should keep her thoughts to herself and stay home
Have the shower !! It is to C-E-L-E-B-R-A-T-E the new baby and mom. Maybe mother in law is salty because no one ever gave her a baby shower. I would nicely I vote mil but let her know a gift isn’t necessary but you’d love for her to be there
