another pregnant woman at my baby shower

So my baby shower is this coming weekend and my husband has invited this woman he went to high school with who is 8 months pregnant and due a couple of weeks beforquestion claiming that he invited everyone he knew so we can get more gifts. This woman is married but at one point before my husband and I were together asked her husband to allow her to have sex with my husband who was single at the time. My husband said he would never do it because he was also friends with her husband. Her and I have had several run ins where Im at a point now where I will be a complete B*tch if she rubs me  the wrong way. My question is what pregnant woman in her third trimester would go to another woman's baby shower? She already accepted the invite but I don't want her to come.

I had lots of other pregnant people at my shower.  You don't have to talk to her just mingle and try to enjoy it but don't let it worry you

I had 4 pregnant woman and two with their babies in arms at mine. It's not for me to comment on the personal stuff in your story but I can't see the problem of pregnant woman being there!

I think it's your and your baby's day....if you don't want someone there then they shouldn't be there...I think if it makes you uncomfortable then talk to your husband about it...good luck to you and no matter what happens enjoy your day....these are one in a life time moments...enjoy:-)

My cousin in preggers and is coming to my babyshower BUT i made it a point to tell my sister who I wanted at my baby shower .. I told her if she invited the people I didn't want that I wasn't even gonna go .. I put my foot down because 1. I don't want the stress of someone I don't want there and 2. I would prolly lose my temp and throw something and the people , or worse .. :/
I would talk to your hubby and tell him how you feel about this woman coming and how uncomfortable you are

Thanks ladies. I guess more so than her being pregnant I don't want her there because of our history & her attitude when she's around my husband. Im not trying to deal with that on the day of my shower since Im so short tempered since I've been pregnant.

I would just call her up and say I know you already rsvp'ed however, with the history we have had I think it's best that you do not come. If she tries to question it just say, it's my baby shower and a very special day and I can't deal with old emotions that might be brought up if you come. And then leave it at that.

Make sure you shine on that day. Dress really pretty. Do your hair and make all nice. Don't forget to smile the whole time. Ignore those you want so much they will doubt their own existence. I don't mean it in a mean way, just relax and enjoy the gifts because it's your day, and you deserve it. And leave the past behind you, leave it in Gods hands.

I don't think it matters that she.is pregnant the fact is she tried to.sleep.with your husband and while she was married So obviously she doesn't.respect her vows she sure as heck won't care about yours. I'd tell him to suck it and cut off ties with her she sounds like a skanK

That would make me uncomfortable as well. Not even that she's pregnant just the history behind it. I would make him tell her she's not invited. And I would probably make sure there isn't a friendship there after that. She seems sneaky. Idk I don't trust that whole situation. But hey I'm a raging ***** and since I'm pregnant I make sure **** goes my way especially on my important day.

I've been to other baby showers while pregnant. So I don't understand that part. But I do get why you wouldn't want her there. But you'll be so busy trust me you won't even notice.

I see no problem with another pregnant woman attending your baby shower. The fact that she wanted to sleep with your DH and DH had the nerve to invite her knowing you have history would **** me off!! He is in the wrong for inviting her, I would make him disinvite her!

I don't know if this was stated above, but someone should not be excluded from attending a shower because they are pregnant, but if  you don't like her or you don't get a long w her you should be able to tell your husband you don't want her to come. That said, if it's too late to uninvite her, I would just be as polite but as avoidant as possible.

Her being pregnant wouldn't be my issue,  her wanting to screw my man, now that's where the issue would come in. ..I'm sorry but that ***** would have to uninvite her damn self

Pregnant people got to other pregnant woman baby showers. But that's the least of your concert. I know your hubby knows you don't like her or had "run in" with her so he shouldn't have invited her period.. F*ck more gifts. Her gift was not needed

I'm co-hosting a baby shower for a friend at 39 weeks pregnant.   It's not ideal for me bc it's so close to my edd but it's the only date that worked for her.  I don't see a problem with having a prego gal there.  Now, ANY girl with that history I wouldn't want at my shower.

I would tell him to tell her she can't come. And that he should of asked you before inviting this women.  And knowing the history behind it, i don't care if they were friends in high school after knowing about the sex thing, they shouldn't be friends anymore out of respect for you. But that's just me, that's where I draw the line.

She wanted to sleep with your husband before you were together when your husband was single. Her husband and her discussed it, but ut never happened or had  chance of happening. Your husband told you what occurred. So my genuine qusestion is are you threatened by her?

Ladies you know why she is mad and being pregnant has nothing to do with it..  that's just her pregnancy hormones adding that in.   This woman has no right at your shower, she was married and tried sleeping with you husband. Like a previous poster said if she don't care about her vows she don't care about yours... she has no right to come to a party to celebrate you and your husband's happiness.

Text her, Facebook her, ig her... send her a damn telegram... Tell that trashy heffer not to come.. period point blank... its easier than actually calling her on the phone, so it don't turn into an argument... good luck mama.. ps. Ive never had a pregnant woman at any of my baby showers.. and I have 3 kids..

3rdNDone, definitely not threatened by her physically, personality wise or financially. Her shadyness after having been married is the main reason why I dont like/want her around.
