  • Technically, the MOB is not really supposed to host a shower, but a lot of them do anyway. I think I would just contact her and say, "I'm ready to order invitations. How many do we need?" and see if she responds with just a number or an offer to pay. You really should have discussed who was paying for them when you were tasked with ordering and sending them, though, to avoid this confusion!
    What did you think would happen if you walked up to a group of internet strangers and told them to get shoehorned by their lady doc?~StageManager14

  • If you are ordering and sending the invitations. It kind of sounds like you already agreed to pay for them...
  • I would just pay for them. It sounds like you already agreed to help with this part of the shower, and it's one less thing the MOB has to worry about if you do. But if cash is tight, then yes, you need to approach this subject with the MOB just to clairify what she thinks you agreed to with the invites.
