Thank you's for gifts.

I registered 2 weeks ago and have received a decent amount of large gifts already from out of state relatives. Do I send thank you's now or wait until after the shower. I am only 22 weeks.

Thank you's for gifts.

I got gifts from people who,are not coming but no one will let me open them so I sent thank you'd so the people knew I got the gift and wrote that I can't wait to open it at the shower. Once I know what the gifts are I will send out another thank you

I would send them out now because I tend to get forgetful.

Re: Thank you's for gifts.

Some were from my MIL and she went grand baby overboard getting the city select stroller, bassinet, infant car seat, extra base and the Advocate carseat. I am trying to think of something cute to send her. The other one's didn't say don't open or anything, I don't know if they want me to bring them to the shower and open them there.

I waited until after my shower but made sure to make a note of who sent what. I received the gifts at like 28 weeks tho... since ur at 22, I think maybe u should send them out whenever you get a chance but prob not wait till ur shower bc so much time would have passed and the person who sent it could be wondering if u even received it.

I think it would be good to send them out as you get them. I never like to wait because I may forget or even feel guilty if I didn't send a thank you right away Chat Icon

I would send them now. You will have plenty to do after your shower, do what you can now.

If they are not going to your shower, send the thank you now just to get them out of the way.

If they are going to your shower, hold off so you can also thank them for attending your shower.

Thank you's for gifts.

With my bridal shower I sent TY as I got things so I didn't forget anyone. Now especially being PG I am super forgetful. Unless it was DH mom or my Mom or someone who is attending the shower and just sent a gift early I would send it right away.
