2 get ur nose out of the books:
yes i finished school, and going thru a home uni course at the mo, does it REALLY matter if im feeling all unloved n just want a bit of pampering? i work with a bunch of blokes who keep callin me fatty cuz me bump looks more like a beer belly at the mo (6 months gone) & laugh more when i get emotional, n so does me bf who's offering me no emotional support what so ever? i may be young, but that does not mean i will not be giving my baby the best possible chance in live. u wana tell me how many 20 yr old are earning just shy of £40,000 a yr? n thats b4 im fully trained up

A baby shower is given by someone else, not you or the father. Perhaps his side of the family? If you don't have close friends or family, who would you invite anyway? I don't mean to be mean, but perhaps instead you can check on agencies that might help you with your needs for the baby. Also, you sound very young, and perhaps did not finish your education. You might want to think about going back to school and completing your education so you can give your baby a good start in life.

You could throw one yourself but if you really have no mates or family to invite then what would be the point? Every girl needs a little pampering during pregnancy so instead of throwing a party for a bunch of people who dont want to be around for support then why dont you just spend a day at a spa being pampered from head to toe or go on a small getaway with your partner and enjoy the time you have left together just as a couple.
Good luck I hope all goes well for you.

Why don't you invite you're family and apologize to you're sister to whatever she's mad at you for. I'm sure you have some friends so ask them to come they don't have to be close friends.It's okay if you do a baby shower yourself. Why don't you ask some people from you're job? I mean seriously you do have friends right? Ask some friends that you like to come also! Remember to forgive you're sister make that you're New Year's Resolution! Hope this helped and don't worry it's okay if family comes!! Hope this helped and GOOD LUCK!

Wow! That is horrible. Throw one for yourself and let everyone else be damned.Tell your bf that he has to suck it up for a day because you want one. Best of luck to you, I had to move 10 hours away from home for a new job and know exactly what it is like to have no friends. It really sucks.

I understand your situation. My closest friend aside from my hubby lives thousands of miles away and I don't really have any other close friends to throw one for me. You can absolutely throw one yourself if you want to, and your boyfriend won't likely be at the shower will he? So go on and invite the friend that you wanted to. It's your day and your shower and you should be able to invite whoever you want.

What about your mom or your boyfriend's mom or sisters, if he has any? If not, then I think it's okay for you to give yourself one. Anyway, this is about the new baby coming into the world and it's up to mommy and daddy to get the baby's "things" together. The best way to do it is through a baby shower. Congratulations!

I didn't have any close friends to ask to mine either, but my MIL threw a nice gathering of only 5 people. It's not how may come, but the quality of the people who do! And I had a great time!!!!

you dont have to have a baby shower you can register at target or walmart or where ever and tell the people you would have cometo your shower thats where you registered and they can get you things without having a special day to give them to you. you could give yourself one too if thats what you want but you really should think about the expenses that come along with doing it all yourself all that money could go to getting your baby things you really want him/ner to have that are just from you or that you dont think anyone else will get

Just throw one for yourself. Yes some consider it rude, but dont worry about that. If they think its rude then they wont come. I myself wouldnt think anything bad if someone threw one for themselves. Its ok. Congratulations by the way :)

I am throwing mine myself. I think it's easier to do it yourself. You know who you want to invite and your not burdening anyone with the trouble of doing it for you.
It's your shower after all. Do it your way.
