Who actually throws the baby shower?

Usually a baby shower is hosted by any one of, or combination of the following:

- close friend(s) of the mum-to-be
- sister of the mum-to-be
- mother of the mum-to-be
- female work colleagues of the mum-to-be

(We would just like to mention at this point that we don't wish to be sexist, but let's be honest, this tends to be a female dominated domain. We have known of men being invited to a baby shower and they ended up playing pool and watching football in the garage - need we say more!)

The host(s) will organise the shower, which includes sending out invitations, providing food and drinks, decorations, music, organising games and giving guests ideas for gifts for the mum-to-be (you should find our step by step guide to the perfect baby shower very useful!). Invitations & party products are available from our online shop.
