Baby showers are pretty common as mums-to-be approach the arrival of their child, but what isn't so common is the mum not being in attendance.
One woman has been left fuming after her mother-in-law went behind her back to throw a shower that included everything she didn't want - and she wasn't even invited. She said she's currently expecting her sixth child and her first with her partner, and didn't want a shower at all.
After agreeing to one when her mother-in-law insisted on it, she felt reassured that things would go smoothly, reports The Mirror.
