Should I invite all my co-workers to my daughter's baby shower? I work with 3 other females.?

Question

I have had a disagreement with one, but we're cordial.

Answer 1

Do they know your daughter?  If they are friendly with her, then yes.  If they don't really know your daughter (or they only know her very casually), then no.

Answer 2

if they have at least met her then sure! (more presents for baby) lol

Answer 3

do they know your daughter? does you daughter even know them? If the answer is no they you dont invite them, if they are cordial with her then I would say to invite them

Answer 4

My stepmom invited her co workers to the shower she was throwing for me.  Some came and some didn't.  Keep in mind that it is your daughter's baby shower, but it is also you're party for having a new or first grandbaby.  These days alot of people invite their friends (and coworkers) to their child's baby shower.  Since you only have 3 female coworkers just decide if you want them there or not.  If you are real chatty with one of them I'd invite all three to be polite.  If you worked with a bunch of women then I'd only invite the ones I was friendly with at the office.

Just let them know you're excited and see if they have any ideas.  I'm sure you have RSVP on your invites so if one woman is just cordial to you she probably won't show up.  If she does then that's great b/c maybe you'll get along better afterwards.

It's a day of celebration so the more the merrier.  People who don't want to come don't.  If you're worried about it looking like you're just after more gifts, when they ask f she's registered just say... oh don't worry about that, just come and have a good time.  or you can put on their invites that the registry has already been taken care of and so "No more gifts" are requested.  If you can't help yourdelf please donate your gift to charity.  Write that in a pretty way on the invite of course.

My stepmom's friends/coworkers got me some of the best stuff for my first.

Have fun and Congrats on the grand baby!

Answer 5

if they know your daughter, i would say yes - but either invite all three of them, or none of them, because if you invited only the two you get along best, the other one will probably see it as a sign of "declared war". if you also invited her, though, she will probably sense you are just being polite and not show up.  

Answer 6

Ask Your Daughter Duhhhh

Answer 7

Sometimes when daughters are Young and don't have a lot of friends to invite I know a lot of parents that do this, my mom invited all her friends from work to my baby shower but I knew all of them or at least met them on a one time basis...

Answer 8

I think it is rude to invite people from work. They really only know you and that would not only be awkward for them but for your daughter. Let your daughter invite her friends, co-workers and family and leave it at that. If your co-workers really want to get her something for the baby they will otherwise leave it alone.
