I'm going to be 28 weeks pregnant tomorrow and I realized that I haven't had a baby shower yet!! I figured that women usually have them around this point of their pregnancy, so I need to get crackin'.

When did you have yours and what did you do for it? And what kinds of games do you play during showers (I remember one where you taste baby food [not as bad as it sounds-- its actually good!!] and whoever guesses them correctly wins)?

Your help is greatly appreciated :)

Usually you have someone plan it for you. Have any of your friends or family  mentioned wanting to throw you one? If they have tell them to get crackin lol.

I wouldn't throw my own baby shower.

Do you know anyone who can host it for you?

Personally, I don't go to baby showers that people throw for themselves. My mom threw mine.

Your still pretty early for a shower. Usually a family member or friend throws it for you and it's usually closer to 8 or 9 months along.

You aren't suppose to plan your own shower, a freind or family member is supposed to, I think its kinda tacky for you to plan your own.
