Another gift question

[jackie011]

We're going to a gender reveal party later today. I've never been to one before. The invite said to please bring wipes &/or diapers. (Hosted by family members, not the parents to be) Do we bring a "gift" as well?? I bought a small pack of diapers and a big refill pack of wipes. I was going to go through some of our unused baby stuff and find a little toy to tie on to the top of that. Is that enough? This person is DH's coworker and they're not super close, but they eat lunch together a few times a week. She gave us a very generous gift when DS was born. We'll give a gift when the baby arrives, as well.

I haven't heard of gifts at a gender reveal party. I hate the idea of gender reveal parties and taking a gift seems weird.
If you are planning to give a gift later, I think that is fine.

I've never been to one before either so take my advice at face value.

I would probably attach a small baby toy or board book to the diapers/wipes and call it a day, especially since you plan on purchasing a gift once the baby's born.

I think that's plenty.

In fact, I find it kind of tacky to be told what to bring, so to bring that and anything else - especially since you'll be giving a gift when the baby is born. Heck, at this rate, you may get a shower invite, too.

It's baby # 3. The whole thing is very side-eye worthy, and there's way more to the story, but I'm being the good wife and following DH's lead, as these are his work peeps. I just didn't want to walk in with what I think is a decent gift and feel like a tool because everyone else "knew" to bring more.

Uh yeah, I think that's more than enough.

Side eye at the request for gifts of any sort on the invitation.

[natablue]

I would say that is more than enough.

[curbsideprophet]

I think that is more than enough and I side eye the request for items on the invite.

This is comical. Being told what to bring as a gift for a gender reveal? Ridiculous. But I totally understand that you need to just roll with it.
