advice

I'm currently expecting my first child and my due date is fast approaching. I recently told my husband that I'm hurt that no one has offered to throw a baby shower even though everyone around us (family, friends, coworkers, church members) knows that we are expecting. He said that I should throw a baby shower for myself. I'm afraid that it would be a breach of etiquette and come across as greedy. With our current financial situation, the gifts would be helpful, but I want the shower more for the companionship and celebration that comes with it.
1) Would you consider it greedy if someone were to invite you to a baby shower they were throwing for themself?
2) What would you do in this situation?

I think that you should throw the baby shower for yourself. Many people do it. It doesn't come across as being greedy. I mean, if you ask me, it was kind of inconsiderate for them not to throw one for you, especially since this is your first child. Having your 1st child is very special, so why not have one. Develop the courage in doing so, you have nothing to lose. Realize the situation your in now, and act from that. I mean, you have done nothing wrong, and it is totally right to throw your own baby shower. I even encourage you in doing so because that's a great idea. I hope and helped, and I hope and pray that your pregnancy will be a healthy and good one that you will remember for the rest of your life. Good Luck!
