that's is ur decison! sometimes it's nice cause u get alot of stuff like diapers and u don't have to pay. like my friend she's had two kids already and didn't have a baby shower for this last one cause she's pretty well stocked up. completely up to u don't think u have to cause everyone else does!!
i didnt have one and this is my first everyone still gave me gifts, i think its just totally up to you and your partner :)
it's an opinion/ not everyone wants or has one they're fun so if you want one do it
