Baby Shower Questions

How many weeks were you/will you be at your Baby Shower?

When did you register?

I am trying to get an idea. Thanks everyone

Re: Baby Shower Questions

Shower #1- almost 29 weeks
Shower #2- almost 32 weeks (this upcoming Sunday)

I had two b/c DH's family lives in NY, and my family lives in MD.

I registered at BRU and Target as soon as we found at the sex after level 2 sonogram.

My showers were a little early, but MIL is a teacher so she wanted to have it before school starts and my mom didn't want me traveling too late in the game.

Re: Baby Shower Questions

I was 29 weeks at my first shower and 34 at my second (for work).

I registered when I found out the sex at 17.5 weeks.

Re: Baby Shower Questions

I was 32 weeks with DS.

Re: Baby Shower Questions

I will be 32 weeks at my shower. I started registering after my 20 week sono.

Re: Baby Shower Questions

I was 32 weeks at my shower.

I registered at like 25 weeks (I'm a slacker, I think most do it at around 20 weeks).

Re: Baby Shower Questions

Shower is saturday I will be just shy of 33w.

I slowly started registering @ 17w (i think) I bought the Baby Bargains book around this time and as I researched the big items and which were best I added them to my registry (online). Then once we found out the sex we went to the store to add stuff.

Re: Baby Shower Questions

I will be 33 weeks when I have my shower and I didn't register until I was 25 weeks but it was well before the invitations were mailed.

Re: Baby Shower Questions

Just had my shower yesterday. I am almost 35 weeks.

I started researching early on and picking out big ticket items, but didn't really go crazy registering until we knew the sex. 20 weeks.

Re: Baby Shower Questions

I was 30 weeks at my shower and I registered at about 26 weeks. I don't recommend that though. I wish I had done the registry earlier because at 25 weeks I was put on bedrest and I had to do the whole registry online. There was definitley some benefit to that - I really only registered for what I needed because there was nothing fun to distract me like there is in the store - but I wish I had taken the time to register for the stroller, car seat and other big items ahead of time.

Re: Baby Shower Questions

I'm 26w . Shower 1 was 25w shower 2 was 26w. Started registering around 14 weeks.

Re: Baby Shower Questions

I am 13w and already started researching my big items. I plan to register probably around 20wks and my shower will most likely be at 36wks.

Re: Baby Shower Questions

started registering @ 20 weeks when i heard i was having a boy

shower was @30 weeks.. i was happy that it was then, i still had energy and felt good.

Re: Baby Shower Questions

I had my shower at 35w. Ideally it should have been a few weeks earlier (like, when my feet weren't too swollen to fit into cute shoes!), but I'm pretty antsy and superstitious and felt a little weird about celebrating so far in advance of the birth. That's just me though.

We registered at 21w, though, soon after we found out the gender. It was so much fun to go and "zap" all the girly stuff at BBB!

Re: Baby Shower Questions

I had my shower at 26 weeks preggo w/ twins, because I was unsure if the doctor was going to put me on bed rest. I registered at 18 weeks.

Re: Baby Shower Questions

i think i was 31'ish weeks at my shower.

i believe i registered at 20-21 weeks

Re: Baby Shower Questions

I was 30 weeks for my shower with my first pregnancy. We registered around 5 months. Or at least started to... we did it all online, so we were constantly adding and deleting and editing. It was probably a good month or so before it was final!
