There's a coworker of mine who I e known for awhile and the last 3 days she's had the audacity to tell me " text me so I can send you my mailing address so I can get an invite to your baby shower"!
You would think she's get the hint. I only invited the ones I am close to. We have way to many female teachers to invite everyone. I don't think most would show up but I also don't have a relationship with most of them that would make them feel bad for not being invited. I would just invite who you're close with. Maybe I'm abnormal, but I'm relieved when I'm not invited to showers unless it's for someone I'm really close to.
That way I don't need to make up an excuse for not going! I'm not inviting any coworker's even my close ones. I only invited the ones I'm close with and they keep things on the DL so the others don't know and feel left out. We strive to provide you with a high quality community experience.

Anyone else going through this? Newest First. I think they may feel this is a solicitation for a gift. Let's be honest, showers aren't that fun, especially if you don't even know the mother-to-be and all her friends and family.
Skip the shower invites, but share photos of the baby when it arrives. They may chose to give you a gift to send on to your daughter or not, but at least they won't feel obligated.
Rating Perfect! I didn't know her daughter and felt a little odd about going to the party. Your advice is perfect. I am going to get her a present for the baby shower. That way I can still show my support for my friend without the awkwardness of the party.
Rating I say go for it! We are only talking 3 people here, in which you have a close working relationship with. Since you work closely with them, they should already know all the details of your daughter being pregnant and share in your excitement. You might regret later not inviting them, so just do it.
If they choose not to come, that is their choice. You are not losing anything by inviting them.
