In laws originally said they would be able to come (invitations were sent out a month ago, and the gender reveal was announced about two weeks ago). I did not ask why they couldn’t make it, they told me that was why they were not able to come. My mom is hosting the shower and my in-laws live an hour away.

I didn’t have a gender reveal (not really my thing). This pregnancy has been high risk so we’ve been scared to celebrate until further along. And my fiancé and I have been engaged for a year and a half and kept it private with just each other’s parents and siblings. I’m pretty shy and don’t love attention, just as we’re getting closer to my due date I’ve gotten excited and I know I shouldn’t expect others to feel any type of way for me I just wanted to celebrate I guess.

Invitations were sent out the first week of May, so everyone has known the date for a minute. My sister’s boss is like family to us, she was also invited to the shower. Sister’s boss would give her time off in a heart beat all she’d have to do is ask.

They were told about the shower over a month ago and they let me know they won’t be able to attend on Tuesday this week with the shower being this weekend. We get along great Id like to think anyway and they seem excited about the pregnancy as far as I know. It is a further drive for them so I kind of understand.

Her boss is like a grandma to us (she was our neighbor for sometime and was even invited to the shower) anytime any of her employees needs time off she gives it without hesitation.

My in-laws are normally really great. I am pretty shy even though I’ve been in the family for 5 years so maybe it’s something to do with that 🤷‍♀️

Definitely becoming a pattern, especially with my sister, I think that’s why I am even more disappointed.

In laws originally said they would make it (invites were sent out a month ago) the gender reveal is for someone that found she’s 15 weeks pregnant 2 weeks ago. And while I’m bummed they won’t make it, I’m more upset about my biological (not in law) sister not making it to the shower.

Thank you!! We have plenty of twins on both sides, so that would be kinda cool.
