Is 34w5d too late for a shower?

My mom let my shower date slip well sort of, she said Sunday the 9th of March, so at the very least I know it’s that weekend. Anyway, I will be 34w5d, how uncomfortable will I be? Will we have enough time to get things organized/washed?

How you feel depends. I am just about 34 weeks and I am getting tired and swollen but I could sit through a party however, I am getting more uncomfortable lately. But that's me, you might feel great.

And you will be so excited to get all of your gear that right away you'll be putting things together and washing everything. It doesn't take as long as you think so you'll have time. Chat Icon

When I was pregnant with my DD I think I had my shower around 33 weeks.

Re: Is 34w5d too late for a shower?

I had my shower mid may and my due date was late June (I delivered right on time)
It was plenty of time.
And I wasn't uncomfy at all.
But again, the uncomfy thing is different for everyone.

Im having my shower March 3rd and I will be 33 weeks! I thought it was too late personally for me cause I know I will be huge and uncomfortable by then but that was the date they chose so it is what it is!

I think that is fine, you'll be fine. If you are tired, just have people wait on you, you're the guest on honor anyway. Chat Icon

I had mine at 28 weeks and I ended up in the hosptial so you just really never know what could happen.

And at this point I don't thin you have a choice since its just over a month away....my guess is its all planned and booked.

Correct. My DH and mom decided to plan it, and did not let me get involved. If it were up to me I would have done it mid-feb. I am super excited but still a little scared, being that I have been having major discomfort in my pelvis area since around 20 weeks, and as baby grows I get more and more uncomfy.

Is 34w5d too late for a shower?

I had mine at 32 weeks, my feet were swelling so I took my shoes off but that was about it (my mistake for trying to wear heels)

Re: Is 34w5d too late for a shower?

This is pretty much when mine is planned as well. I am due May 29th and my sower is April 13th, my friend is due May 22 and her shower is April 6, so I'm guess this is normal! I'm sure we will all be fine!!!

Is 34w5d too late for a shower?

I feel like I was around 30-32 weeks when my shower was. I was not uncomfortable at all. Then again, I was due a few days ago and I'm still not uncomfortable! I think you'll have plenty of time, but I would prefer an earlier shower over a later one.

It could really go either way but honestly you'll probably be fine. You'll be sitting most of the time and although opening gifts can be tiring if you have a close friend/realtive sit up there with you in case you need some help for the bigger stuff you'll have no issues. My sister and mom were handing me gifts and my cousin and brother's GF were up there in case I needed help.

Crashing. I had my shower at 35 weeks. I was uncomfy mainly because of the weather its was July. I still had a great time. I think 34 weeks will be fine.
