I think if it's not too late I would stick to my guns and be firm and tell her you're throwing a single baby shower for your one friend and it would be great to have her (the nosey neighbor) throw the baby shower for the other friend. First of all, what about the family members of these ladies, are they now supposed to buy gifts for a woman they don't know? That could put a burden on some people. Same with the friends (if they don't know both women). How does each of the pregnant women feel about this? It sounds like this is the first child for each one, do they want to share the experience (especially the one who had such a hard time getting pregnant)? I don't know that I'd want people that I don't even know at my baby shower. Well these are just my thoughts. Good luck in however you deal with this, believe me I would be upset too.
