RSVP Question

How would you respond to an invite to a bridal shower that's the day after your due date?

I was invited to one of my sorority sister's bridal shower. It's on April 30, the day after I'm due.  It's at a restaurant in the city, which I live probably about 10 minutes away, and it probably 20 minutes from the hospital I'm delivering at.  

I leaning towards saying no because I'm afraid that the hosts will have to pay ahead of time per person and I don't want to be included if for some reason I can't make it.  So far, I have been feeling pretty good, so I'm assuming come April 30, I should be OK... but who knows I may be feeling pretty miserable by then.

Re: RSVP Question

  • Good for you, Nat!  By 35 weeks, I was done... and I mean DONE.  But I think I would graciously decline just in case.  You COULD be in the hospital by then, either that or home with a newborn.  If you're worried about them needing a headcount, I would say no.

  • I would decline and send a gift. That's too close for comfort for me!

  • I'm not even PG, and I say to decline and send a gift. If I were throwing a shower/event of any sort and had a PG guest, I wouldn't be upset at all if they didn't make it due to their LO in any way.

  • I think it's too close, also.  I think if it were at someone's house or it wasn't headcount dependent, I would just let the bride's sister know what's going on and plan on attending if I wasn't hospital bound. 

    MB~  I think I'm slowly deteriorating LOL... it's just taking longer for this baby to break me down but she's been really beating me up in the past week, lots of kidney and bladder punches. . Stick out tongue We're both stubborn but she'll probably end up winning haha.  And I think my vision is starting to go in my left eye, so who knows what's going on with that because the doctors are pretty sure it's not Pre-E related...  Give me a couple weeks and I may just take her out myself!
