Shower After Baby Is Born(has Anyone Had One of These??) Posted: 02-10-06 01:59am
My shower is being held for me after the
baby is born because family from out of
town wanted to come but they didn't want
to make 2 trips out...So now my showe is
after. I have never heard of a shower
being after although a lot of people tell
me this is smarter because then gifts can
be more gender based (which I am kind of
worried they made a mistake that I am
having a girl and I will only have pink
things and end up with a boy!- so I guess
that bits good). But I am not sure what
to do with the guests with the party...I
am not really hosting my own party but it
isn't a surprise so I am now kind of
involved...Lol. I only know of games for
before baby is born...So has anyone had a
shower after baby is born? What did you
all do?
Thanks!

We did this for my sister after she had my
neice. We didn't play any games or
anything, but our whole family was there,
including friends of the family, and we
just brought gifts for my neice, and ate
dinner. You don't really need to play any
games when you have a baby to play with!

My shower is being held after I have the
baby. I know a lot of people who have
them before hand which can be a big help
with buying what you need. But since I
didnt' find out the sex I think it's
easier this way to wait until after baby
is born that way it's easier for people to
buy according to what the sex is. Plus
this way the baby is there for everyone to
see.
Hehe thanks for replying you guys. I
guess with the baby you don't really need
games lol...I just seem to have this
really large invitation list..But i'm sure
people will just mingle and there will be
food and stuff.

My friend had the shower a few weeks after
the baby was born because she waited till
last minute to figure out what the sex was
she wanted to keep it a suprise and I
thought that it was actrually a good idea
we still had fun games to play and
everything :)

Hi there, yes I have heard if that..In
some cultures they wait till the baby is
born and then they go and visit the baby
with gifts and all..=)
