Socialite Kim Kardashian, who is expecting her first child, has reportedly requested all guests to make charity donations on her baby shower.

Kim, 32, who is pregnant with boyfriend Kanye West's child, does not want anyone to spend money on gifts for the baby.

"Kim's banned all guests from bringing gifts. She wants charity donations instead," dailystar.co.uk quoted a source as saying.

The couple recently bought a house for themselves in Bel Air and close family members have already started pouring in.

"Kanye's flying in his family and putting them up at the super posh Bel Air Hotel," the source said.
