My best friend threw me a surprise shower for me and a few close friends. It was good fun! I was about 8 months pregnant and felt like a whale lol.

Nope! We are not America, so I refuse to adopt things like baby showers! I'll wait until a baby is born before dishing out gifts. Don't mean to be the doom and gloom one, but things can happen and until a baby is born safe and screaming it's wee lungs off I refuse to give any gifts.

No, I didn't have one & didn't want one. Don't really see the point in them & like Yvonne, I think it's a bit premature to give gifts before a baby is born. Surely it takes away from the present giving when the baby arrives? :scratch:

That's just my opinion though :lol:
