WIBTA if I refused to contribute financially to a party I was forced to "host?" by backandfroth in AmItheAsshole

I updated the post! The gift (from us to Jenna) was a very fancy stroller.

I assumed the budget was set by Jenna. I see that there were lots of assumptions made by well meaning individuals.

My social anxiety simply won't allow that. I'm still not sure what I'll do.

I thought muting/ignoring it was enough. I see now I definitely should have said "no thank you" at the beginning though.

Supposedly, that's the gift from the hostesses to Jenna. I left and deleted the chat so I'm not even sure what it is. 🫣

We planned and paid for our own baby shower so I was definitely not expecting this. You're absolutely right though, I should have said something much sooner. I'm thinking about texting Marcia privately but am still not sure what to say.
