Question by cougar2342: should i be obligated to buy another baby shower gift for this person?
my sister in law is having a baby in a few months. she has already had 2 showers that were fairly good in size, and is about to have 2 if not 3(or 4- they keep being planned it seems) more of the same size. i made her a good sized diaper cake, complete w/ items inside of it, the whole nine yards. my new husband and i are currently out of work and having to live w/ his parents. for our wedding a little over a month ago, she fought me on her dress until my mil ordered the semi formal maternity dress i found for her as her bm dress "didnt fit" 2 weeks before the wedding, and argued w/ me about every detail of my wedding(and she wasnt maid of honor either-i didnt have one). she also royally screwed me on a lot of things tied in w/ the wedding- she didnt send out the bridal shower invitations or the hen night invitations until less than a week before the event, and wouldnt let anyone else help her.
that aside, my mil and fil act like she is the first person in the course of human events to be pregnant(when i was pregnant w/ both of my children, they pretty much ignored me. w/ my son, my mil called me cross country to cuss me out for no reason, and w/ my daughter i was forced to ride everywhere in 120 degree heat w/ in a car w/ no ac; i also had SIGNIFICANT complications- w/ my daughter i was borderline gestational diabetic, had preterm labor, bleeding,etc. and w/ my son i had too much fluid(which carries a good risk of cord prolapse, which can be fatal), severe preterm labor(i was having painful contractions for 2 1/2 months prior to having to be induced a week early b/c my son was so big that my body couldnt physically handle him anymore), severe swelling in my left leg, and was virtually put on bed rest for the last month almost of my pregnancy. my sil has had no complications other than a tiny spot of bleeding once. her baby is normal sized. i am not by any means wishing these complications on her or that i am jealous, i just dont understand how the same person can be so hyperfocused on one dil's pregnancy and completely ignore the other one's pregnancies both times.
mil tonight said to me that i needed to buy another gift for yet another shower for sil. i have been invited to one this friday and another one for sil after that, along w/ there being talk of yet another one. i told mil both i and my husband are broke(b/c i am- we are both trying to find jobs w/ no sucess)and couldnt afford to buy another gift for sil(not to be selfish, but our son needs food and diapers too). sil and bil are also better off than us at the moment(they have a house, 2 cars, and both have great jobs w/ great insurance and benefits). is it rude of them to keep requiring us to get them gifts for everyone of these showers?
for my baby shower for my son, she made a small diaper cake, and bought some sleep sacks. she didnt buy anything for my daughters shower.
i also bought them an exersaucer back in may.

No. You have already did enough (if not too much) for her. Tell your sil that you'll be happy to bring a meal over after her and baby come home from the hospital and then leave it at that.

Pregnancy does not mean that date nights or work events stop, and it certainly does not mean the end of flattering, sexy, and gorgeous evening dresses. For those special nights out, every expectant mother needs to have her go to dress. Whether you prefer long to short or an LBD (little black dress) to a vibrant jewel tone, there is sure to be the perfect dress for you. Find an evening maternity dress which flatters your shape and is unique to your personal style and you are sure to look and feel great all night long.

One gorgeous style for a maternity evening dress option is the maxi dress.

A maxi dress is very flattering, as it creates a long and lean look. Although there are many casual maxi dresses, the evening options exemplify such details as richer fabrics, intricate necklines, and a unique gown quality. Brand new for the season is the Gold Band Maxi dress from Maternal America. This Grecian inspired design combines rich gold and elegant black for a true evening look. The gold band emphasizes a gorgeous v-neckline and empire waist, creating a flattering shape that allows the fabric to drape beautifully over your baby bump. Paired with gold strappy heels, you are sure to be a showstopper. The Maxi Maternity Dress from Olian Maternity is another gorgeous option. This sleek fabric stretches exactly where you need it and creates a slimming look. The most stunning aspect of the dress is its neckline, with criss-crossing straps creating a gorgeous design. Paired with heels or flats, this maxi dress is sure to wow!

Another maternity evening dress style which becomes more popular in the fall and winter months is a dress accented with a jeweled neckline. Jeweled accents bring a rich, warm feel and create a gorgeous frame for one's face. They add unique detailing to whichever dress they adorn and bump your look up to that next level. One beautiful option for an evening out with one's special someone or a dinner extravaganza with one's office is the Embellished Dress from Maternal America. Classic and elegant, the empire waist creates a beautiful silhouette and the stretchy fabric ensures your utmost comfort. The neckline is the focal point of the dress, consisting of beautiful beading in a gentle scoop-neck style. The jewels, layered on top of the deep navy blue fabric, truly exemplify elegance. Another gorgeous beaded option is the Beaded Neck Cocktail Dress from Olian Maternity. The beautiful scoop-neck beading layered against the black creates a high fashion feel, and the cut of it accentuates both the neck and shoulders beautifully.

A little black dress, more affectionately known as the LBD, is another fantastic option for maternity evening wear. LBDs are classic, sexy, and flattering. Perfect for cocktail parties, romantic dinners out, and even business events, they are versatile and you are sure to get a lot of wear out of them. Although all black, each LBD has its own unique characteristics which allows you to choose the perfect dress for your personality and style. The Black Diamond Beaded Dress is a gorgeous option from Maternal America. With ¾ length sleeves which are perfect for the fall months, it has a deep v-neckline which culminates with a beaded diamond design at the bust. Another stylish LBD is the Satin Border Dress, also from Maternal America. Easily dressed up with a gorgeous pair of heels, it has a scoop neck and flattering empire waist. The dainty pleating of the bodice and satin band at the hem give it a gorgeous feminine look. Wherever you choose to wear your dress, an LBD is the perfect go-to staple for a multitude of occasions.

An evening dress is an important staple to have in one's maternity wardrobe, and there are a plethora of options available for your unique style. Find the design that works best for your body and taste, and you are sure to look and feel great all evening long.

Question by tinywitch: What do you wear to a bridal shower?
The event has already passed, but I wanted to get some opinions from people.
They told me to dress "casual". In your mind, what does "casual" mean to you?

I am pregnant and have outgrown all my nice clothes. I also just lost my job (I told them I was pregnant and they fired me), therefore I really had no money to buy anything new. So, guess what I wore? Maternity jeans and a t-shirt.

You know what? I told them I couldn't go, but basically I was forced to go. And I had bad morning sickness that day too.

So... I get there and everyone is wearing fancy dresses! I was mortified and Pissed Off! Casual?! Yeah right! It was horrible.

Does that sound even remotely casual to you?
To answer a lot of your questions, I know about the laws regarding pregnancy/sex discrimination and I am working on suing them!! It was just wrong..

And also, I KNOW I should have worn a skirt or a dress.. But I was hoping to get out of going (I desperately did NOT want to go! My fianceés family literally forced me to go), and I didn't want to spend the money on something I would never wear again.
but still... I'm still mad that they said CASUAL and it SO TOTALLY WASN'T!! ughhhhh. (I KNEW IT!!)
