[MzKarina]

Okk ladies I'm 20yrs old having my first baby(boy) my husband&&I are very excited we live with my mom till I go full time then we can move in our house..Anywayz my cousin moved in with us Bcuz she wants to have her baby here legally which is totally fine but my mom now is making her a baby shower with me since she is due in late July(28)&&I'm early July(1st) I feel its so unfair I feel cheated she's only doing it Bcuz in her words she feels she's pushed up against wall with the family like she has to do it to please everybody in my stepdads side of the family she says I'm being selfish?!?!?! Wtf ..she's has a mom its not like she's homeless but I'm f**n pissed we got into ugly fights Bcuz of this I shouldn't be mean but ugghh Idk just need other point of views help anyone?! Don't wanna keep fighting with my mama no more

Not right at all. Her mother or another family member should throw hers at a different date than yours. Its your first baby which means its you and your baby special day no one else should take shine in that day! Thats something you will always remember.. A double baby is like a double date its HELLA COMPETITION!!!! Bad idea....Very bad idea. Hopefully you can change your mother mind. And good luck on your soon to come new addition Motherhood is AMAZING ;-) :-) O:-)

No im with everyone above thats not right. If it had been my sister or a best friend it might kinda be fun to have a double shower but also kinda awkward i think. An like mckaylas said your friends might feel obligated to bring two gifts that might just make a lot of people feel very awkward and uncomfortable. Ya. Probably a really really bad idea. Hope you get to have your own shower. You should tell your mom What everyone above has said too, what other people think and their opinions. Might change her mind.

Thats so not fair I would hv a attack just sayin.. I dont like sharing babyshower and its shortening u.. and guest its double the gifts thAt could ve been for u...so not fair..gd luck

Joint baby showers are complicated because you have different friends and you may have more and you dont want them to feel obligated to bring your cousin a gift just because its her baby shower too... I wouldnt want it either

Hell no! Call me a brat, but if it's like that I'd rather not be a part of it. **** it :/

Its not right. Each new momma should be able to have their own time to shine!!

I would be really offended if I was given a joint babyshower. Also if iI was invited to one I would feel obligated to bring to gifts and that is a lot for one party... I would bring that up to your mom... maybe that point of view will help!!!

I feel you this my very first child a boy also ...no you should be the only one shining at your own baby shower that's not fair at  all

A shared baby shower is just rude if you don't want one.

I'd be unhappy too if I had to go through a shared baby shower but I feel like I might also let it go for the sake of family relationships. It seems like it would also put a lot of stress on family members because they may not be able to gift give for both babies, or may not want to...family can be complicated. I'd say sleep on it. If it still bothers you tomorrow then approach your family calmly and explain why you feel that way. See if you can have focus be on one person at a time. Hang in there mama.
