Friend wants pregnant mum to pay for her own baby shower and she’s right

What do you make of this?

A woman wants her pregnant friend to pay for her own baby shower after becoming fed up with her demands. A mum herself, the woman said she was happy to throw her friend a baby shower and gender reveal party but felt taken advantage of when she was TOLD that she would be planning another baby shower. The mum vented her frustrations about the situation with her friend on Reddit explaining she simply does not have the money to throw her friend another party;

"A little back story, my friend just had a baby last year after trying for a few years to get pregnant. I threw her a reveal party and then I threw her a baby shower. My husband and I are not financially stable but I still found a way to pay for things for her reveal and shower. She paid half and I paid the other half. Fast forward nine months after she had her son and she gets pregnant again. We're worse off than we were last year financially and struggling to catch up on our medical bills when she tells me that I'm hosting this baby shower. It would be different if I had offered to throw a baby shower but I didn't. She told me I was throwing it. I had been actively avoiding the subject because I know I can't afford it nor do I have time to plan one with having a full time job plus my own family to take care of. I will gladly diy stuff when/if I have a little free time but I just don't think I can spend much if anything on a second baby shower."

Many Reddit users agreed with the poster saying that the mum was being greedy by looking for another baby shower so soon after the first;

"It is tacky and gift grabbing especially with the fact her kids will be so close in age and half the baby equipment she needs is probably still okay under safety regulations."

Tacky or not the fact that she told her friend that she was planning a party rather than asking her is what I find the most irksome. It's absolutely not on to put that kind of strain on your friends especially when they have their own children to look after. Sorry love, but the world does not revolve around you and your five million baby showers.
