I am having mines at 33 weeks 6 day since it is not to early and not too late. Really a good time is when you feel good. Personally, I would not have a shower at 6 Months.

Mine is scheduled for 34 weeks which is late bc im a high risk! N doctors told me today they might induce me next Thursday which is the weekend of my baby shower -_- so if you are high risk you might want to have it earlier

I'll be 31 weeks and 5 days when I have mine. I'm like the other ladies who posted, I like to know what I still need to buy. This way I have time to watch the sales of things and get everything built in her room.

Im having mine a day next Saturday on the 15th to be exact. I'll be 32 weeks and a day. I'm pretty comfortable with that. I say you should do it before you are 36 weeks just to be safe.

I'm gonna have mine at 30 weeks. I want to make sure I have absolutely everything I need before the baby comes that's why I'm having it early. Just in case we don't get some things we have time to get them without having to rush around.

I'm doing mine this weekend. I'll be 32 weeks pregnant by time I have it. We're doing mine a little earlier then normal because my parents are gracious enough to buy what I won't get at the shower and want time to get those things before the bay comes. Babies come anywhere from 37 - 42 weeks and 34 weeks didn't leave much time if the baby came early :)

There's a tradition of having the baby shower closer to your due date ie: 34 weeks or closer. They used to do this to ensure they didn't jinx the baby or the pregnancy. I know my mom is throwing mine next week (right before my 35 week mark).

Usually sometime where you actually look pregnant and feel good would be great.
If I were to have mine I would of had it at 34 weeks because I still felt good and looked pregnant. But it's all your choice and how you feel.
