A baby shower is the perfect celebration in the expectation of a birth. Moms, and some Dads, gather to receive those must-have necessities for their new bundle, while everyone enjoys games, snacks and the company of good friends and family. A great baby shower is a memory that will last a lifetime, so you will definitely want to prepare in advance.
Getting ReadyWhen preparing for your baby shower, the first steps are sending out invitations and deciding which activities you want to include. Melting candy bars in disposable diapers, and then taking turns guessing the kind, and baby naming games are all popular. If you are looking for something a little more unique and memorable for your baby shower, then you may want to include a theme for the shower and build activities around the theme.
A modern theme for your baby shower can include natural living items for the new arrival. Organic cotton, BPA free feeding accessories, and natural wood rattles and toys are all becoming mainstream gifts. If you have Allergies, such as latex allergies, or you do want to keep baby's toys and clothing as natural as possible, make sure you tactfully mention this information on the invitations.
What to ExpectTo make things simple for guests, you may want to begin by registering for the items that you need at a local or online store. Of course, your guests don't have to purchase the items that you register for, so don't expect to have all that you need for your new arrival after your baby shower. Make sure even the gifts that you won't use are appreciated, and send a thank you note as usual.
If you are attending a baby shower, then you will want to begin by checking the registry for the new mother to be. The items that are most needed will be on her registry. If you can't afford any of the items, you may want to consider buying along with one or more other guests and splitting the cost of larger items. With a little planning you can have a great baby shower that provides the new mom with many useful items.

Can you bring a baby to a baby shower?
(Hopefully not the baby ,whom is shower is for.) I would ask the hostess what she thinks. Babies do tend to disrupt an adult party, but everybody likes to see them. If you have no possible baby-sitter , perhaps you should make only a brief appearance at the shower. I repeat, ask the hostess-- it all depends on what kind of party she is planning and how you fit into the guest list.
