Planning a baby shower can be an extremely fun and rewarding
experience, however it is important to know the do's and don'ts
of organizing showers before you get started. Today's baby
showers are becoming more of a highly-organized event than they
were in the past and this article will get you up to speed.
Baby showers can make an expectant mother feel more secure in
the fact that her friends are all pulling for her and giving
moral and financial support. Usually the baby shower is
organized by non-relatives. But today, there is isn't abnormal
to find family members, support group members, church

friends
and pretty much anyone except the expecting mother.
Inviting the Guests Who should you invite? Usually, the guest
list will only include those nearest and dearest to the
expectant mother. It wouldn't hurt if she gets a first look at
the guest list so that she can suggest who should be invited. If
you are planning a surprise baby shower, you will have to do a
little research on who should be attending instead of running
the list through the expectant mother.
If the child is not a firstborn, you may opt to keep the number
of guests down to the closest to the mother. Firstborn

baby
showers tend to have a larger guest list since it is, after all,
the mother's first time.
The thing to remember is that the nature of baby showers is
intimacy. So, for any baby shower party, try making the
gathering one of intimate friends.
You could use informal ways to invite these guests: email, phone
and others. Invitation cards and other letters are the best way,
however, as they provide a tangible, traceable evidence of
invitation. Plus, it is the most sure and formal way to invite a
person - and in many cultures - the only way.
What About the Guys The nature of the

party is probably going to
tend towards the feminine side; if the organizers of the party
have a provision for this, then inviting men would be fine. It
also depends on the men, since the party may dwell on topics
such as pregnancy, children, and other motherly topics, they
might not be that excited to join. All in all, it depends on the
preference of the organizers.
Venue Anywhere! As long as it can keep with the placid and fun
nature of the occasion, any place would be fine. The more usual
places on baby shower lists are backyards, formal halls,
restaurants, and basically any room that has the

amenities to
make a baby shower successful. Just make sure the venue is not
crowded and stressful to the mother-to-be. It also pays to make
sure the venue is set long before the actual baby shower happens.
When to Throw a Baby Shower Usually this is one or two months
before her due. The baby shower is the perfect time to get your
friend baby needs and stuff she may not have had time to
purchase yet. It has to be well-timed though - not too close to
the due date, and not to far as to whittle down the excitement.
Baby showers are a pleasant surprise to expecting mothers. It
takes a lot of the

stress of expecting a child off of their
minds and provides a means for friends to show support and
concern (and of course, baby gifts) to expecting friends.
A properly coordinated baby shower will be greatly appreciated
and forever remembered by mothers long after they have delivered
their children.
