They are treating you like you are not an adult that is contributing HALF, though, so I’m concerned they will still feel entitled. Pick the day you want, and then plan it for that day. Tell people they should come to the one you planned, and that they only need to go to the other one if they want to party with your mom. Ok_Possibility5715. • 7 mo. ago.

NTA for not wanting to travel there super pregnant. But I don’t think they’re asking that of you to be malicious. They probably have a whole guest list of people in your hometown who would love to come and provide gifts, and if the shower isn’t in your hometown those people aren’t going to drive 5 hours to attend the baby shower.
