Many women end up having a couple of showers, especially for the first baby. Her family may throw a shower and invite only family members, and then her co-workers may want to throw one as well. The mother-to-be may find that her husband or significant other is surprised with a shower or gifts by people with whom he works as well. It all depends on the size of the families involved and the extent of your list of friends and co-workers.

If smells are the main cause of morning sickness, carry around a hankerchief with a non-offensive odor on it. Put it over your nose when smells become unbearable and you cannot get away from the area.
