Some Vital Pieces Of Information About Baby Shower

Baby shower is usually a way of celebrating the pending birth of a child in Australia. In this ceremony, gifts are showered to the expecting mother at the party. Baby showers have gotten all modern, after all!

When to celebrate a baby shower

Baby shower parties can be thrown at any time. However, they are usually held early in 3rd trimester – somewhere around thirty-two weeks. This time period is fixed because mum-to-be well passes the danger stage of early pregnancy and is into a phase where she may not go into labour & be unavailable on the ceremonial day. Moreover, expectant mums would surely want to enjoy this day. So, it is better to do the baby shower this time because the later the ceremony will be held, the higher will the chance be for her to be physically uncomfortable and take part in the baby shower games, which have been planed.

Who are to be invited to a baby shower

Basically, baby shower is a strictly female-only occasion but nowadays a lot of women like inviting their partners as well. It is after all a nice way for the dad to get more involved in this affair. Make it very much clear on the invitations who all you’re expecting-whether you just want women to attend or are inviting men, kids or/and babies as well. If you want children to attend your ceremony, ask one of your friends or relatives to perform the role of a babysitter & entertain the kids so that the guests can really enjoy the event.

In your baby shower, you shouldn’t be inviting all people who are in your office or new fancy friendships. Rather, keep the invitation list limited to your dearest and nearest ones – family and friends who are really going to enjoy spending a few hours with you celebrating your impending birth. There is no rule as to how many people you can or should invite. The number of people you invite is going to dictate the kind of baby shower you will have. However, just remember that baby shower is a very intimate event so try keeping the guest list small.
