First and foremost I am a big believer in inviting only people you wish to be at an event, not inviting everyone just because you don't want to offend anyone. That's just me, although people will probably think I'm a jerk for that comment. It's just how I feel, it's my party and I'll invite who I want to (note how that would fit in the song?!)
The second part of this is that it seems a bit greedy to me to have a THIRD baby shower. My point of view would be "Didn't you get enough stuff from your first and I guess second showers?" That is the point of a shower is to give to NEW mothers the things they'll need to help with their NEW baby. By the time they're on their 2nd or 3rd child they should already have all that stuff covered.
I'm guessing the underlying question you have is "Is it alright for me to be pissed about not being invited when my mother was?" Absolutely, you're entitled to your feelings, does that mean your sister in law is in the wrong? Not really. It's her choice, either live with it or tell her how it made you feel, either she'll care or she won't but you'll have said your piece anyway.

If she is going to have baby shower for her child I would think that the family (both sides) should be invited unless there are other issues going on where she feels that it may be too stressful to have some famliy members around.
I don't find it strange to have a baby shower for her third child. I don't understand why people think that the third child is not as special as the first.

This is her THIRD (3rd) baby .. and as such, she should pretty much have what she needs at this time (from the first two). So there usually is NO Baby Shower for #3 -- just the close family purchasing a little something (like a new outfit, some diapers, etc), rather than the "big" shower that one would get with their FIRST baby.

I personally would not invite my in-laws, but I'd invite them just to make them feel wanted and important, (although for the third baby shower, that would be insane the only thing they need to attend next is the christening) but hay don't get your hopes up!!! she might invite you...

i'm thinking maybe she is only having a couple people because its not right from what I know to have a baby shower for your third child so thats probly why she isnt inviting everyone because actually they would look at her a lot worse if she did, and 3rd is spelled third

that sounds strange that she would only invite those two if its a baby shower. yeah, unless your sister-in-law really dislikes you or something i think the extended family as well as her friends should be invited.

Baby showers are traditionally only for the 1st baby.
