Who to invite?

I have possibly 2-3 showers coming up. I have told all my hosts that they can combine and have showers together, but they don't really want to. My question is...If one person is hosting a shower for me, should I invite them to my other showers?

It's not appropriate to invite anyone to a shower who isn't invited to a wedding. But I get what's going on with your mom's friends. They want to celebrate your marriage, in some way, even if they will not be invited to the actual wedding. Suggest to your mom that you would feel more comfortable having a get together after the wedding so her friends could meet your husband and look at your wedding pictures.

After you've explained your reasoning to your mom, stay out of it. I have a feeling that your mom may feel pressured to include her friends in your shower. If that happens, be gracious about it. You shouldn't be involved in planning your own shower, so you're not responsible for someone else's faux pas.

It's nice that you have so many women that want to celebrate this milestone with you. Enjoy your showers.
