mine was also men and women and kids if they had any. It was alot of fun especially when the guys participate at the games! my hubbys friends went also, even went alone and they all brought gifts for us. It was an amazing time!

i had mine 2 months in advanced or maybe even more i had to get them out of the way of the holidays but rrgardlesa of when i was due id do the same because you never know when the baby will come. My in laws want to do one for me about 3 weeks before im due and i am not looking forward to it at all :( im grateful but im gonna be so close and huge and tired. Anywho ar my first one i was still tired a little early but for the most part i was able to go and greet everyone and walk around everones table, sit and talk, and go and watch the games comfortably, i was able to sit comfortably to open my gifts and was able to stay up a long time, our events always end late and i knew that even if it was a baby shower it would take time, it started at 4 and ended till like 12 i went home at 11 and was tirsd but okay in the end. ....but yeah earlier is better plus it gives you time to not buy anything until after you know what you recieve at your baby shower. No one wants tp go ahopping last minute for baby when youre about to pop!! Hope you have a great time whenever you decide! :)

I am due February 2nd and I am doing it the beginning of January. I would have it sooner, but with the holidays it's just too much.

I'm due Feb having mine in Jan. It was supposed to be this month but the stress of planning it alone was too much so my church took over. I think deffo you need to get someone to plan it for you  makes it more fun x

I found that I liked having  mine a couple of months before my due date because then what I didn't receive at the showers (I had two), I could get on my own and not be uncomfortable shopping as I was not in the final stages of pregnancy where walking hurts.  :>)  good luck

I had mine a month and a half before my due date with my first baby.  Didn't have one for my second baby or this one. ..

I had mine at 29 weeks.  Still had some energy, wasn't huge so it was easy to move. .. plus you never know when your baby will come.  I had my labor stopped at 32 weeks and delivered at 38+3. The earlier the better in my opinion.  I would have it in February if i were you.
