Just that really. I've been to loads of weddings. Majority have john Lewis or similar gift lists. Range of gifts and prices. No issue with that whatsoever. Buy them something they actually want or need and job done.
Gift list for baby showers seems to be more and more common and really winds me up. I don't really know why. Maybe because I would have found it cringe worthy myself, or because I don't like buying for a baby that's not yet here or maybe because the most recent one was full of things like 25 quid sleep suits and 30 quid blankets that I would never dream of buying.
The baby shower list was circulated on the basis that people have asked what's needed and this means we won't 'waste our money' and of course don't feel obliged etc. But it still winds me up.
Am I being unreasonable to think wedding lists are fine but baby shower gift lists are just too much?

To find gift lists for weddings fair enough but gift lists for baby showers completely grabby?
