I held a baby shower for a friend end of last year and had a guest ask if she could bring her 5 week old baby and i said if she didnt i would send her home to get her and then she could come back! The rest of us with toddlers didnt take ours as we all wanted a relaxing afternoon.

I think it depends on the mum to be , some prefer the attention solely on them, so love to have babies there so long as you know what sort of person your friend is, just go with that.

I had my baby shower yesterday and had no problem having kids of any age there, I don't think I ever would have cared for one of my baby showers, I tend to like to be accomadating and I know that for some mums taking their children is easier, but I went to my friend's baby shower the week before and there would have been no way Id feel comfortable taking Tyler to that.

...Actually , that was worse imo, cos my friend and I are due the same day so im just as big as her and it wasn't just her that the pregnancy focus was on

I'd definitely take a bub so little! Just be prepared that your wee babe may be pass the parcel.

I told friends with "babies" as in not moving they were welcome, but not older as my sister held it at her house and was definitely not mobile baby proof. Non bought them, but a friend bought her 8 year old who ate like a pig, drank about a litre of coke and made a complete pain of herself! Grrrr it really annoyed me because I would've put on the invite other kids names if I knew she would bring her anyway.
