Same here, he came and went...didn't want to be around all those hormones and "girly games" according to him, but he came back at the end and was there.

Hubby stayed away the entire time and helped me unload when I got home. This time though he might be there IDK. He isn't into parties of any kind

We did a co-ed baby shower at a local gaming hall. It gave his family a chance to be there as well, and it turned out really fun. We didn't do any of the girly games. By the time we got done socializing with everyone, eating, and opening presents, we didn't have much time for baby games. However, since we were at the gaming hall (Dave and Busters), it gave everyone a chance to stay later and play games with us. We ended up having the shower 330 - 730 and staying until about 10 that night.

i had two baby showers. dh was at one but not the other. the one he came to was co-ed so i made sure to invite a lot of his friends as well. the one he didnt go to was just for women so i wasn't upset that he didn't come.

Thank you ladies I love the co-ed Idea but my guest list is already 45 ppl long ( i have a huge family) I think I will just ask him to be there near the end to say hi to his family and help load the car

My DH wanted nothng to do with it. He did take my Dad to eat so he wouldn't have to sit through it (my parents live an hour away and my Mom can't do the drive alone). It was primarily women, but two of my male friends did show up... my DH and Dad are just wooses.

I haven't had mine yet (next month!) but DH will be there. He really wants to be, I think he's just excited to open presents lol. Plus we are having a "jack and jill" party I guess, we're inviting guys and girls. There won't be a lot of guys there but a few will be to keep DH company.
