i think october is a little early - maybe early november, before people start getting too busy with their holiday plans.

if either month is an option for all the VIPs, then i'd stick with mid-November. Obviously, if that doesn't work, October is totally fine too.

Unless she's having twins - then choose October Chat Icon

I would actually plan it for late October. With the holidays November and December tend to be very busy months for people so I think you would have a better turn out in October. I just had my sister's shower a few weeks ago and it was exactly two months before her due date. She is due on Aug 2nd and with all the proms, graduations, summer vacations, etc. I wanted to schedule it so there would be little conflict for people.

With DD I was due 1/7 and had it the first weekend in November. So your sister is due a week earlier so you can do either the last week in October or the first in November. Maybe 10/27 or 11/3? Are you planning this as a surprise, which is why you're not asking her?

Usually somewhere between 30 and 34 weeks (which gives you a lot of leeway) is good for a baby shower. Have fun planning!

Yeah it's a surprise. It'll be the moms, me and my sister planning it. My brother will just be getting her there

Maybe a little earlier then, if it's a surprise, so she's not expecting it as much. The longer you wait, the more she'll know or be expecting it.

I'd probably do the end of October or early November. I wouldn't go too early in October or too late in November (because of the holidays).

I agree this would probably be the best time!

I'm due January 16th and I think we're having my shower in early to mid November just to avoid the holidays.

I would say anytime in late October through November is fine

I am due Jan 31st and they are planning to have my shower first week of Nov due to holidays. I think end of Oct or early Nov is perfect.

End of October / very early Nov would be great, esp for a surprise!

Mine is 2 mos before my due date, which is nice so I have lots of time to get the rest of things I need and organize.
