Q: When is it too soon to have a shower?

When is it too early to have a shower/get together? I'm only 18 weeks as of now, but I'm due early January and I don't want to have it around Christmas time and be a burden. Plus it's going to be cold here in the winter and I want to have a Baby-Q for all members of our families. So I was thinking September maybe around 24-25 weeks before it gets cold and snowy. Maybe October. Is that too soon? Does it even matter how far along you are?

I'm due the second have of december, and I am having my shower Oct 21st. It's right before all holidays and also not too cold up in the northeast. I will be 31-32 weeks then.

I think any time during the 3rd trimester is fine. My work shower was held right at 28 weeks (but that's because I'm a teacher and it was the last week of work before we were out of school for summer). My family shower was later around 34 weeks.

Me personally I don't think it matters when you have a shower, but I do think that October would be a good month to have one, it will be nice and cool, but not to cold. I am 30 weeks and I still haven't had my shower but I am not worried about when it happends because when it does I am sure it will wonderful :). I am sorry if I didin't help very much, but I am sure what ever you decide it will be great :).
