Baby showers have been very popular and are one tradition that
almost all mothers-to-be from almost all countries practice.
Since baby shower is not only gift giving
but also a social event. It is for this reason that some
etiquette should be observed. These etiquettes may vary
depending on your country but the following is the most
common ones.
1. The best time to hold a baby shower is sometime before the
birth. Usually, baby showers are held a month or two before the
birth of the baby. Recently, some
people practice holding the baby shower a month or two after the
birth.

Holding the party before the birth of the bay will give
time for the mother to buy the items that
were not given as gifts during the baby shower.
2. Baby showers are not only for first-born babies but also for
subsequent babies. Every pregnancy is a reason to celebrate, so
there is nothing wrong to throw a
baby shower to subsequent babies.
3. Traditionally, a close friend of the new mom hosts the baby
party. Relatives and co-workers can also host the event.
4. For the host, it is okay to have games to break the ice but
it is not that required. Conversations, food and

drinks are the
thing that should be considered. It would
also be a nice idea to have a book where the guests can write on
their notes and messages to the new mom.
5. It is just proper to give gifts that are related to babies.
Neutral colors can be picked for gifts so that it will relate to
either a boy or girl. It is best to choose gifts that
can be useful and something that a baby may need everyday like
diapers, feeding bottles, bibs and baby blankets.
6. Usually, twenty people or more are invited but this will also
depend on the number of people that can be accommodated in

venue. Sometimes, they hold a small
number before the birth and larger group after the baby is born.
7. A baby shower is usually held during weekend since that is
the most convenient day for the visitors and would normally last
two to three hours. The time may be
extended especially if everything is doing well.
8. The person hosting should shoulder the expenses on food and
other things.
9. Ideally, the baby shower is held at the home of the person
hosting the party. The new mom would be informed since a
pregnant woman is not fit for surprises.
10. It is

not necessary to have a special invitation printed.
The host can buy stationeries or greeting cards with baby themes
in bookstores. It will also be a good idea
to have the invitations sent at least three weeks before the
party. This will give enough time for guests to RSVP. Do not
forget to include the directions.
11. It is only proper to welcome guests when they come and thank
them when they leave. The host should always be present during
the party and should be the one
attending at the guests.
12. A theme for the party is not that necessary but this adds
life to a party.
