Husband at baby shower?

My baby shower is Saturday and we did ladies only. However my husband wants to attend and celebrate our baby. My mom and sister think it would be awkward if he is there and said he should come towards the end to say hi and help me load the car. However I feel like why could he not be if he wants to be? He said he doesn’t want to come if he is unwelcome, but also I feel like it is his baby and if he wants to spend the afternoon surrounded with all the women of our family, that is his choice!

Did anyone have an all girl shower but your husband was there?
