Baby Shower for Moms who simply wanna have fun! This type of baby shower is not the only type of shower given today. Traditionally, baby showers have been thrown for mommy-to-be and the guest list was strictly women.
These days, many an families choose to have several types of showers, including back-yard barbecues to include the men. These are a good idea since they remember that Dada is a part of the new baby’s life, too.
But there is thing
to be same
for a Sunday afternoon gathering of women to ooh and aah over Mommy’s belly without uncomplimentary
looks from the men. One reason to plan a baby shower for mom only.
When you have only women at the shower, you have the possibleness
to actually "girl it up", so to speak, at your baby shower for Mom. You can do actually girlie things and not have to worry simply about the men being bored or embarrassed.
Here are a few suggestions for production
a shower extra-girlish: Have Tea and Cake. Find a few actually pretty tea sets and order little delectables like petit fours, tea cakes or peradventure bring a cookie basket. Drink your tea like ladies, with little finger
finger projecting up!
See if you can find pretty lace doilies for napkins. Pick up several baby shower party favors to go on
with your ladies only party. You strength
even as want to fake a British accent, dahling!
At your baby shower for mom and the ladies only, let them all be pregnant. Peradventure purchase several baby shower decorations to match the pregnant theme. The guys emphatically wouldn’t go for this!
Ask each guest to move with a pillow or else do shift stuffing to pretend that she is pregnant, too. Give a prize to the most authentic pregnant lady (excluding the guest of honor, of course) at your baby shower for Mom. You can pick up the prizes at any local party favor store or online party favor supply site.
Have everyone tell a story from their birth experience, or, if they have ne'er
had any children, let them rehash the stories their mothers told them ("I was in labor for 72 hours with you..."). Be sure there is a mixture of funny, touching, and grim stories to round it out.
Decorate with extra-large maternity bras and lingerie (or get them in mom-to-be’s size so she can actually support them after the
party).
Play baby shower games for your baby shower for mom. There is no way you would-be get away with this at a couples shower! But at a baby shower for mom and the ladies, you can play Guess the mom-to-be’s weight (go easy on her - guess low).
Paint her belly, do crafts like paint matching tees and onesies for Mom and baby, or play a game like baby bottle bowling. Ask guests to move up with else baby shower party ideas or baby shower party themes.
Don’t Husband Bash. But you can tell funny or touching stories simply about else new Dads or dads-to-be. You don’t want to scare the mom-to-be. But she should be aware that several Dads wish try to finish for coffee on the way to the hospital. Even as although Mom’s contractions are 3 minutes apart.
Drink Girlie Drinks at the baby shower for Mom. Well, except for the mom-to-be. She can have non-alcoholic versions of girlie drinks, though. Try Strawberry Daiquiris, Cosmopolitans and else fruity drinks.
