what would you do?

ok so my mil called me today and asked me if I would mind having a shared baby shower with one of my husband's cousin who is a month ahead of me. now her baby shower is saturday and I have the day off because I was going to her baby shower. turns out her mom and my mil, and all my husbands aunts including her were at church today and they came up with the idea that we should do it together......now we are all very close but I cant help but feel like im invading on her day. I said yes cuz I called her and made sure she was ok with it.

its mostly family going there...most of my friends are off on the weekends so im not worried about ppl not bringing me gifts. I was more worried about her being upset.

If your ok with it, then go for it. Especially if you already had a special one just for you, and its her second...itll be nice to have the second shower for extra blessings for baby :)

As long as you are okay with it then it is fine. My SIL and I are both pregnant 10 weeks apart. I told my hubby if he hears any talk of combined baby showers speek up and say no. My SIL is pregnant with her third in three years so she has had her fair share of showers and this is my first baby. I would not be cool with it! But if you've already had a shower and your hubbys cousin is okay with it then just have fun! Just make sure you really are okay with it before it is too late to speak up.

I already had one for myself thats why im not really upset about it. I would definitely turned it down if it was the only baby shower I was going to have and plus this is her second baby....

That should be your special day and one of you might get more attention and feel bad. Don't let them do that to you its not cool having to share something so special

Noooo, you guys should have your own baby showers!!! It's a day for YOU individually, not combined. Plus you'd probably get more gifts if you had your own:P

Uhm no way! It's the day to celebrate your pregnancy! That's not cool! If you're not okay with it then definitely say something.
