Gender Reveal Parties


Posted: Jan 26, 2016

I received 2 invites this week! My grouchy self says just another gift haul occasion but my nice me...okay, actually feels the same
But at the end of the day I'll go because those little babies already have a piece of my heart and I don't want to miss one minute of his/her life
Grouchy sidenote to continue my whine - I blame Pinterest! Glad that site hasn't hooked & reeled me in!!

You actually take gifts? So it's a baby shower? Or is there going to be a baby shower at a later date?

Do explain please!

Good question.. - ?

I just took for granted I would bring a gift! I will have to ask some questions! In both cases I've heard through the totally unreliable but entertaing grapevine that both of these parties a cake will be served and when sliced we will all know (including mom & dad) if it's a girl or boy coming in 6/7 months! I assume (but remember what they say about those that assume that we'll be looking at a pink cake or blue cake ...

I have been to several and yes - sm

I took a gift to them. The theme in my area is that it's not a shower type gift but say maybe a pack of diapers. The last one I went to was for my niece back in the fall. It was outside and besides the cake she served sandwiches, snacks and a large witches cauldron of chilli. She is a very social girl and as the day went on I would say there were probably 200 or so people floating through. Everyone brought diapers and I have no idea where she stored all of them.

It's a baby shower, bring a gift. - sm

It's the latest thing. I'd go gender neutral in terms of a gift.

When I saw the title of this thread - LOL

I immediately thought of a transgender person coming out for the first time. Anyone else have that same thought? LOL Guess I've seen so much of Caitlyn Jenner that my mind immediately steered in that direction.

Yes, that is the first thing I thought of! - Saw a transgender bride

on "Say Yes to the Dress" the other night and was thinking of that. Then, I remembered the Duggars and all of their Gender Reveal parties, so I knew what it was about. Guess I watch too much reality TV for my own good.

That's what i thought, too! I live in SF and - have many transgender friends.

I am an old fogy - admit it freely

Gender reveal parties and "save the date" wedding invitations are beyond my ken. In the olden days, we just told people individually about our news.

Of course, back then expectant mothers wore clothes designed to disguise that huge baby bump, not something that would announce to the world "there's a baby here!"

I would much rather see the maternity wear of old - than bulging naked

pregnancy pictures of their boyfriend kissing their girth, baby daddy patting the belly, bikini clad with the bikini lost under that belly pictures. I just do not think a pregnant belly is all that. I remember a couple of years ago being at a water park with 2 pregnant women there in bikinis. That sight along with the women's tats were really jaw dropping.

Sadly, the 18 month investigation into the IRS targeting of conservative groups isn’t over, and it may be worse than anyone thought. A federal judge has broken loose more emails that the DOJ had surely hoped would never surface. The picture it reveals isn’t pretty. The documents prove that Lois Lerner met with DOJ’s Election Crimes Division a month before the 2010 elections. It has to be embarrassing to the DOJ, which may not be the most impartial one to be investigating the IRS. In fac ...

I Think Both Parties Are WrongJan 02, 2013
Not only did they extend the tax cuts but they pushed back spending cuts.  Both wrong in my opinion.  Get rid of the tax cuts...let them expire for everyone.  Why are they pushing back spending cuts?  Isn't our biggest problem our debt and yet they push back spending cuts?  HUH?  Isn't that a tad counter productive to getting down our debt?  I am so disgusted with any and all politicians.  I'm to the point where I don't believe either p ...

Think Reid Will Reveal His "source?"Aug 07, 2012
He claims "someone told him" that Romney has not paid taxes in 10 years. That's a pretty serious charge, especially if he does not/will not name his source. Anyone can claim "someone told me" something and then it's reported as truth? I don't think he HAS a source; I think it's political strategy -- get the media to report it and people will take his word for it. Voters are smarter than that. ...

Ryan also then said their position on abortion has not changed. Romney's previous positions have been that he is absolutely against abortion. That ...
