A little bit about Baby Showers
December 3rd, 2009
Though the idea started in America baby showers are becoming increasingly popular in the UK as well as across the globe.
A baby shower is traditionally hosted by a relative or close friend of the mum to be, with it being held in the hosts own home however as people know more and more people these days sometimes a venue may be booked for the occasion, for example- a church or community hall, restaurant or spa. The idea of the day is to make the new mum to be feel special, and be spoilt and pampered before the endless sleepless nights begin.
The best time to host a baby shower is probably about 1-2 monhts before the estimated due date, this ensures that all scans have been had and the pregnancy is well underway and established and also it is best to have your babyshower a little early in case of premature birth.
Some hosts like to throw a surprise baby shower, you know who its for so can decide whether or not they would like the surprise however some mums to be prefer to organize it all themselves, as they know what and how they would like things. Generally a baby shower is for attendence by ladies only, no kids or partners but you may wish to involve men and children in yours as its your baby shower fun the rules are all up to you!
