Baby Shower To Do List Knowledge Base
What do you think about having a baby shower list? I know this is a party I cannot throw myself; however, I'm thinking about having a gift list with things I'll use. I think it's a good idea since most presents are clothes or things you don't use later. I'm thinking about including diapers, lotions, shampoo and creams, blankets, diaper bag, and so on. Do you think it's rude to include a baby shower gift list? haha, sorry, I didn't mean to include literally a "list", I'm just saying to include registry information together with the card.
Baby shower list vs a registry? I am hosting my sisters baby shower. This is her third and 5 years after her last and a boy vs. her 2 girls so she needs almost everything. She doesn't want to do a registry at a store because they never get looked at. Instead she has put together a list of stuff she wants or needs. Is it appropriate to put the list in with the invites? If not what are some suggestions that are realistic and would have people look at it? The baby shower is still a month away so I have the time to do something else than a list with the invites.

Question about a baby shower list? My mom wants me to make up a list of things that I do not have yet for the baby so she can send it out with the invitations. I was given a used breast pump and I've read reviews saying that it wasn't a good pump, and the person who gave it to me said that it hurt really bad and she didn't like it. So, I was wondering if on the list I should put a breast pump on it. I know that I'm not going to get everything on the list but should I still put it on there?

Do I bring gifts bought from baby registry to a baby shower? I'm invited to a baby shower with a baby registry list included, should I buy it and bring it to the shower? What if the item is online only and has to be delivered by mail.. (not enough time left for me to receive it before the shower)
Baby shower invitation list etiquette ? I am helping throw my friend a baby shower &she sent us a list of people she wants to invite. My mother, who knows my friend but is not close with her, asked me to tell my friend to add her to the invite list. My mother was not on my friends invite list & now I don't know what to do. I feel awkward asking my friend to invite my mother because obviously she did not think of my mother when making the list. And I don't know how to tell my mother she wasn't on the list... & honestly, is it even acceptable to be asked to be put on an invitation list??? Now I feel weird because I'm involved in the shower & can't tell my mom until I resolve this or figure out what to do. And, I want to tell my mother she has no etiquette in asking to be invited to a party. I just don't know what to do. I feel like my only options are to 1) ask my friend if my mother can come & feel weird about it, 2) find a way to tell my mother it's rude & out of place, or 3) lie to my mother about it all. Other ideas? In response to 1st reply... 1) isn't it rude to ask to be invited to a party? If the people wanted you there they would have invited you. And 2) the mama did not put my mother on the list, hence that would lead me to believe she did not want to/think of inviting my mother.
Baby Shower Guest List? Rude or not? I know it's still early, but I need some help. My sisters are throwing my baby shower closer to my due date. They have already done some planning and asked for a guest list to get an idea of how many people would be attending. I am not sure who to invite and who to not invite. i don't want to hurt peoples feelings by not inviting them, but I don't want to seem greedy, either. I saw a girl I went to school with at JcPenny and she asked when the shower was and said she couldn't wait. We were close in school, but have drifted apart. I have only seen most of my friends a handful of times since we graduated (2007) but we do talk occasionally online. Should I invite them and let them decide to come or not, or not invite them and risk them being offended? I would still go to any of their showers if they were having one, if that helps. I still love them to death, we just don't see each other much. Should I take my one friends feelings on it as a sign that is how everyone will feel? I don't want to be tacky or hurtful. Help!
Baby Shower Invitation List? My sister-in-law has requested a list of people to invite to my baby shower. Some of my dad's cousins I know better than others, but I feel weird inviting them but not the ones I don't know so well. Also, some of them I know one or two siblings but not the third, and I feel weird inviting someone I hardly know, but then, I don't want the one I don't know to feel left out. Also, I would be inviting my great-aunts, but some of them I wouldn't know any of their kids if I saw them on the street, but I don't want them to feel awkward if their kids weren't invited and other cousins are. However, I don't want to seem like I'm fishing for gifts by inviting people I hardly know. I just don't want someone to be offended by not being invited when everyone else is, or being offended by being invited when they don't even know me. I would really like to at least invite the handful that I do know though, because I know they would enjoy coming and celebrating the baby. What do you think I should do?
Baby Shower: Guest List Etiquette Question - HELP!? My husband is from Indianapolis, and I am from Birmingham, Alabama; he and I live in Atlanta. All of our family lives out of state (obviously). We are putting together a baby shower guest list, and we are in a quandary on how to handle those aunts out of state who obviously (especially those in Indianopolis, and other midwestern and northern states) will not be able to come to the shower. From "where I am from" you are to never invite someone if you know they will not come, but if I don't invite my husband's Aunts and female cousins, I am afraid they will be offended. Or even some of my family members who I know will not come, I am afraid I will still offend them b/c etiquette for things like this are sort of forgotten. What do I do? My Mother-n-Law says to invite them, and if anyone gets bent out of shape over it then that is their issue b/c my heart is in the right place. Can anyone advise? PS - I am posting this in etiquette and in the pregnancy section. Okay let me specify (which is VERY sad that I have to do this - GEEEEES). Three good friends are throwing me the shower, and they have asked for my address guest list. And read the question carefully - we are putting together a "baby shower guest list" not a baby shower.

I posted this in another section (indicated in inital question), and SEVERAL posters (and I laugh at this) misread the question to read that I'm throwing myself a baby shower... in this section, well, it seems the posters have read the question properly ... We are putting together a baby shower guest address list as it was requested by one of the three hostesses throwing me the party. I am not throwing myself my own baby shower, but I appreciate this group for reading my question and not assuming, but thought I should go ahead and make it clear as to what I meant. I know that it is inappropriate to throw myself a party, and I actually had to tell my husband's Mother from Milwaukee, Wisconsin that it is inappropriate for her to throw me one in Indianapolis (which is where she now lives). She did not know that non relatives are the only ones to throw a party.
Baby Shower Registry List? Does anyone have a comprehensive list of items you should register for before your baby shower? Or links to good websites with registry lists. I am so overwhelmed by all the items you need to have and don't know where to start!
List of baby shower games? Hi ! [= I'm helping my mom on throwing a baby shower for my older sister.. but I don't know what games to do for the baby shower. Anyone have a good list of ideas? Please go into detail of your game [= Thank you !
Baby Shower guest list dilemna? My best friends are planning on throwing a party/shower for me and my husband, rather than a traditional baby shower. I love this idea! However I have a sister who is obnoxious and makes my friends uncomfortable, so I was thinking the best solution would be to have a separate, more traditional shower with my family and my mom's friends. How do I bring this up to my family without making them feel like they are being excluded from my party with my friends? Also, I'm not supposed to be the one planning this, so who should I talk to about planning the smaller shower? Just to clarify on my sister, she is mentally unstable, quit taking her medication and does not put up with anyone talking to her about behavior. I cannot tell her about the party with my friends, as she will not be invited and will not attempt to understand why. She can do no wrong. I know this from 30 years of experience.
Guest list for Baby Shower.. I don't know half of them. What would you do? My boyfriends sister in law just called me to go over the guest list for my upcoming Baby Shower. She named about 20 people, in which half-I didn't know who in the world it was. Do you think that we should still invite these people? I don't believe I've met some of them, but they do know my boyfriend (obviously, as they are family). I don't want to leave anyone out just because we haven't met but I don't want to have awkward moments, like when opening gifts-where I look around the room & wonder who in the world Aunt Thelma is! My boyfriends Sister in Law got the list from his Aunt, and she has been in the family alot longer than I have & she didn't know half of the people either! I don't want to invite Great Aunt So & So just so she'll come and bring a gift. I want it to be people that I know & that know me. What would you do?
Baby Shower Troubles? My friend is having a baby in mid November and I've decided to give her a suprise shower in the begining of October. She made a baby shower list because family wanted to know what to buy her and so did I, but she put on a lot of VERY expensive items that I don't think I could give to everyone. She wants this a thousand dollar crib and $500 changing table and she wants all of these designer clothes for the baby. I showed the list to a co-worker that is helping me plan the shower and she said that I better talk to her or no one will get her a thing on that list. How do I tell my friend that she needs to find cheaper stuff on the list? She's going through mood swings right now so I have to pick a perfect time, plus not spoil the suprise of the baby shower. Her mom is taking her out to coffee, it's going to be a pretty laid back shower so she can just wear what she wears everyday and then we'll suprise her. We know she wants a shower cause she's hinted it.
Please help me.I am so sad.I have my baby shower coming up and I am mad at my husband.Plz help me feel better? Ok here's what happened.Please, I know its long but hear me out. My husband has made certain huge promises to me about some things in our marriage the knowledge that he's promised me about a couple of things helps me stay sane and trust him(its not about an affair and all its some other things regarding my in-laws etc,some problems we had) Now this might sound silly but what happened what I have a friend whos planning my baby shower.I am 32 wks pregnant.I wanted to have a huge co-ed party at a rented place closeby.The place cost 300 and catering would cost 300.When I told my husband 20 days back I want the baby shower there he said its too expensive and I am crazy to want that.I said then maybe we should have a meet the baby party there.He said yes that would be worth it. He made a promise that he thinks it would be worth it and we could do that..he said have a simple baby shower and later we can have something in that rental place. Now 20 days later when I told him about it,he said no way, I dont want to have the meet the baby party there as you are getting a baby shower now.He's the one paying for the catering which would be about 200 at a friends place where the baby shower is going to be held. Now I felt so bad.I asked him why he promised and he said at that time it was between a baby shower at rental place vs a welcome baby at the rental place but according to me he had said baby shower simple and lavish welcome baby party... So didnt he lie that time? I think he did but his reasoning is as such. 1) I was forcing him for a baby shower in the rental place and so compared to that he felt its more worth having a welcome baby party,so he never lied. 2)He thot there are many people who would come and since there werent too many when we made the baby shower list,he says there arent many so why do another party for the same small group. 3)I am no longer going crazy like I was about the baby shower even the simple one.. My sadness is he lied.He made a false promise. Even if he changed the promise later bcoz of a change in circumstances,its still a lie,right? I am correlating this incident with those big promises he has made in the past. He says this is such a small isolated thing and those are life changing promises so obviously he would never turn around on those...but NOW I feel like can I trust him when he says something. Honestly, I don't care about him not wanting to pay for me etc..I am only angry because he lied or rather promised something and changed it based on the circumstances.I just cannot digest that he made a false promise...
Should MIL be involved in invite list for baby shower and who to invite from her side? To make a long story short, MIL and I are currently not on speaking terms. Basically she verbally attacked me, we're talking about talking over me loudly where I couldn't get a word in, while I was talking, yelling, over the phone, to where I had to calmly end the phone call with her 2x, telling her that I was hanging up the phone. This is a result of DH not being able to cut the cord and getting his parents involved in an issue of ours. Mommy wasn't even involved but as usual, stuck her nose in where it don't belong and turned into the helpless victim as always. Anyway, we have not spoken since and I have nothing to say to her. Me and her only speak when we see other to begin with and I'm not holding my breath on an apology. My mother is throwing my shower and told me right away she is going to still invite her, it's the respectful thing to do and this is going to be her granchild after all. I would love if MIL turned down the invite but being that she is so fake, I doubt she would not attend this. I know that she will show up, with her sugary sweet fake smile on and her low voice acting all coy like she always does. My mother is sending out invites and told me she wants to invite the same number of people from MIL's side that we are inviting from my side, which really isn't sitting well with me. My mom said she is inviting around 15 people from my side, granted I know some won't come. At first my mother said she would just give me the invites to give to my husband who could give them to MIL and she could make them out herself. I didn't like that idea, so I said what about if I ask DH and he gives me the list. I thought just inviting MIL and her immediate family from his side is ok. I asked my husband who he wanted me to invite and he said he don't know. My other option is that I already have all of the address's from her side from my wedding, so if I wanted to, I could leave even my husband out of this and just invite whoever I want from the list and give it to my mother. I could stick to just inviting her, my hubbie's grandma, MIl's sister, sister in law and 2 nieces, the 2 nieces I met like 2x, once at my wedding, so I'm guessing I'm obligated to invite them. So, what should I do?
I am so pissed at my husband and I have my baby shower coming up and I feel horrible mad at him Plz help me? Ok here's what happened.Please, I know its long but hear me out.

How do I tactfully list on a baby shower invitation to ask the host for a list of nursery colors/registries? PLEASE READ IN ENTIRETY BEFORE ANSWERING. THANK YOU. I know people always buy stuff they think is cute for the baby but what if you already have enough of said item? Is there a tactful way to mention that the Mom has some baby registries and if you want to know where just ask the baby shower host? Also, there are certain nursery colors/theme Mom has already planned...I would like to mention that on the invitations also. Really it would be awesome to just mail out a wish list, but I know that is tacky...so what is the next-best solution for wording on the BACK of the baby shower invitations? Something short and sweet.
As an expectant mother, who should you include on your invite list for a baby shower being thrown for you? I am having my first baby (very excited!!) in May and my sister-in-law (she is also a close friend of mine) has asked to throw me a shower and a family friend has also asked to throw me a seperate shower (one of the showers is being held in the city I used to live in and the other is being held in the city I currently live in) -- both have asked me for an invitation list and I am wondering what is the proper etiquette on who to invite? For example... -- My fiance is the baby of 13 so he has A LOT of relatives, he is close with most of them but since I don't see them often I am not very close with a majority of them, so I am wondering who I should invite from his family? Keep in mind, there are no family conflicts and I know his family would get along great with my family so it isnt about that at all. -- Should I invite my fiance's friend's wives? While I am not best friends with any of them, when we hang out with them I have a great time and we stay in touch through facebook. I should note that for one of the showers, we have decided to let husband's/boyfriend's come because my brother is going to take all of them (including my fiance) out while the girls have the shower so if I do invite his friend's wives, I would also be inviting his friends. -- As for my own friends...I know a large network of people but I am horrible about keeping in touch with all of them, I am wondering which friends I should invite? Should I just invite friends I see on a regular basis or also extend the invite to friends I don't see that often? I guess the bottom line is I don't want people to think I am inviting them so I can get more gifts because that is definitely not it but at the same time I don't want anyone to feel left out, afterall I am excited to be having my first baby and want to share it with everyone -- the more, the merrier! I would appreciate any help!! Thanks :)
What is the etiquette on gift-giving without a list for a baby shower? I am going to a baby shower for a woman at work that I was invited to orally a few weeks ago, but just received the invitation yesterday. The shower is on Sunday. The invitation doesn't have any kind of a gift registry notice or a gift list of any kind, but when I asked another woman who was attending, she said that the hostess was expecting gifts. All I know is that the baby is going to be a girl. What should I buy? How do I know if others have already purchased what I am going to purchase? What kinds of gifts do expectant mothers expect? Any suggestions on etiquette for this situation?
need advice--for baby shower invites? my mother wants to see the invitation list to see if there is anyone on there that she does not like, if so she's not coming to my baby shower. the list has already been given to my hostess. when i told her my aunts and cousins were invited, she got very angry. what to do??
Online baby shower? Does anyone know how to host an online party? or get more info about it? I just received the guest list for a baby shower I am helping with and it had two lists. The second says "out-of-state for online party". I've never heard of that.
Does everyone buy newborn clothes for a baby shower? I am just starting to put together a registry list for my baby. I was at a baby shower a month ago and it seemed EVERYONE bought tiny outfits that weren't on her registry. She had way too many clothes. If you have had a baby or shower did this happen to you?
How do you throw a baby shower shared between both sides of divorced family? My older sister is having her first child in february of next year. I am attempting to start planning a baby shower for her but there's one huge problem. My mother and father were divorced a long time ago and still hold a grudge towards eachother to this day. I want to incorporate both sides of our family into the baby shower guest list but I have no idea how I can make this a pleasant day with no conflict between members of the opposite side of the families. I have a large home with my mother in which I am planning to have the shower at. How am I supposed to have my father's family here and make it comfortable enough for everyone to enjoy? I am willing to take any kind of advice from someone who has had a similar problem. I have never been to a baby shower where the grandparents aren't married to eachother still so I really don't have a clue. PLEASE GIVE ME IDEAS!!! thankss.
Is it cheeky to make a "baby wish list"? We're having a baby in September and thinking about starting to stock up on baby things! I'm not sure who exactly in our family and friends is planning to buy things for us yet (if any of them lol)!! We already have quite a few things left over from when my son was a baby (albeit many are the wrong colour now as we're having a girl!!!) and I've managed to get together quite a few little things so I don't especially need things like babygros, little outfits, cuddly toys etc (which is pretty much all we got given last time!!!) I have way too many cuddly toys as it is and really don't want anymore of them!!! I've made a list of things we do need - its mainly things like bedding, a change mat, a baby bath, muslin squares, a playgym and so forth and also a few smaller bits and pieces for the nursery. Would it be rude to make a "wish list" so that people could see what we actually need if they want to buy us a gift? And if its not considered totally socially unacceptable to do so is there anywhere online you can do it and send the link to people so they can select something from the list? We're not having a "baby shower" - its not really the custom where I live and also a lot of family and friends live too far away to attend anyway, so I'm thinking more of just the usual little presents people tend to turn up with when they come to see the baby for the first time!

How much stuff do you usually get at your baby shower? My wife’s baby shower is coming up for our first child. She hasn’t really bought anything for our baby other than a few bibs and the crib set. We have no clothing, accessories or even bedding for the crib. We didn’t want to buy anything until after her shower. How much do you usually get from people at your shower? Should I expect to buy most of everything on the registry list? This is the only baby in both of our families, so I know the grandparents will want to pitch and buy a few things. I am not looking for others to provide for my child, I just want to know what to expect! Thanks!!
Baby Shower? My mother in law mentioned that she had a baby dinner after the baby was born for the "baby shower" for my sis in law...I told her that I didn't exactly want to wait until after the baby is born. My husband and I are going to be tryin for a baby and I want to start getting things for the baby..but my mother in law says not to because people will buy things for me. ButI dont want to not have tings when the baby is born because I was "hoping" that people would buy the things for me. I don't expect anyone to buy any type of expensive item or cheap items. Is there anything wrong with making a registry, and buy things throughout my pregnancy and then leave the other things on the list for my shower? Do you think i'm being rude? I just want one child and I want everything for my child for this special time. I don't want to miss out because I was waiting incase someone would buy something
What are some new and unique baby shower theme ideas? My youngest sister is pregnant, and this is the first baby of my immediate family (we are 4 siblings in all). We would like to throw a great baby shower since we have a guest list of at least 50 people. Some guests are flying down from the other coast too. We are trying to figure out a theme that would be unique and not so "done". Please help! Any ideas and suggestions would be greatly appreciated. FYI, we do not know the gender of the baby. Thanks again!!!
Should I invite them to the baby shower? I'm currently pregnant and already have a list made out for the baby shower for my Mom and BFF to use. Thing is, I got a new job a few months ago and the ppl that i used to work with are wanting to know when my shower is. I don't really want them there. My new job is throwing my a shower of thier own, and my mom is throwing one for the huge family of mine and I don't want to add to it. What do i say or do?
Does this list look accurate to you? Am I missing anything? List for Baby? This is the list that I just made (I'm 8 weeks, I know it's really early, but I love feeling organized and ready) of things that I'm going to need/want for when my baby arrives-6 months or so. I was wondering if you mommies or daddies had anything I should add on there? I was also wondering if my prices look accurate. I do realize that I will get some of these things when I have my baby shower, but I figure with this list, it will also make my registry easier to deal with :). Nursery: Crib$399.99 Mattress$69.99 Change Station$269.99 Chair$299.99 Angel Care Monitor$149.99 Bedding$100.00 Décor$200.00 Total (Taxes In)$1683.64 Baby Gear Tub$39.99 Stroller + Carseat$399.99 Diaper Bag$30.00 Carrier$49.99 Cloth Diapers$300.00 Clothing$75.00 Total (Taxes In)$1011.32 Playtime: Play Yard$219.99 Exersaucer$149.99 Swing$149.99 Play Mat$59.99 Toys$100.00 Total (Taxes In)$768.35 Feeding: Breast Pump$79.99 Nipple Shield$10.00 Bottles$20.00 Total (Taxes In)$109.99 Full Total: $3573.30 Thank you so much!!! Happy New Years to everyone as well!
Question on how to wrap and what to put on card? So a friend of mine is having a baby shower in about 10 days. I got her a gift called whale-of-a-tub (it was on the baby shower list). My question is how do i wrap something that big when the tub itself is not in a box? My second question is what should i put on the card? NOTE: The baby is a girl.
Check list for baby registry? I am going to register soon for my 1st baby shower. I know the basic things I should be registering for; crib, stroller, etc. But what are some items that are sometimes overlooked? Do I really need one of those bassinet things? Do people really use them? Should I register for a jogging stroller or is that something you're supposed to buy yourself later on? I just need help with a checklist or something lol
baby shower? Hope someone can help. I have been invited to a baby shower. Each guess has to write a rhyme on each presents and the new mum will have to guess what is instead if she wants to open the present without doing a forfeit. I’m Italian and rhyme in English can be very tricky for me.. These is the list of presents I bought: 1)Toiletry (baby powder, massage cream, bobble bath, shampoo) 2)Trousers/t-shirt-hat-shoes green and brown colour (mum and dad likes the outdoor then the baby can wear these clothes when they go camping) 3)Pampering products for the new mum 4)Car sign (Superbaby on board) 5)Story book Anyone good with rhyme can help?
Do you have to open gifts at a baby shower? I am having a baby shower and have quite a long guest list. I dont want my whole shower to be opening up gifts. But I also dont want to offend people by not opening their gift. What do I do?
What kinds of things could I ask for, for my baby shower? Since this is my first child I am wondering what is appropriate to ask for, for a baby shower. Don't you give a list or something? Do you just get clothes or other things too?
Is it rude for me to list gift registry infmation inside a baby shower invitation? also, is it rude for me to hand write "non registry gift ideas" on the back of the registry card? I ask because a lot of times people do not buy from the registry but I want to kind of "steer" those gifts in a certain direction. My sister, who I am throwing the shower for, is very organic. For instance, I would like to say on the back of the registry card "Non-registry gift ideas include glass baby bottles, cloth diapers, organic baby lotions and soaps....this baby is going green!" Wouldi t be totally rude of me to include that with the invitation (the invitation also states the baby is being raised green)? I don't want to come across as bossy or greedy at all. So I really want to know what you think. We just have seeen lots of petroleum based baby oil and plastic diapers as part of gift baskets at baby showers and these are not things my sis will use. Please give me your thoughts on this! She is only registering at one place (likely Target). Part of the problem is that I am deaf-I am accepting the RSVP's via a phone msg service because I cannot recieve phone calls. So it's easier for me to give them the registry info with the invitation since I will not be available to answer questions by phone.
Baby shower invite wording/poems? Hi I am arranging a baby shower for my daughter. I have registered her at babiesrus but am unsure of how to word this on the invites. Does anyone know a nice saying/poem that i could use. I have a few ideas of my own but am not gifted in this area. I will include these ideas below if anyone can help. I made a list what baby needs OR you need not to bring a gift OR your presence is more important to me than a present Just cant get all this to gel Thankyou
I need a list of the most important things that I need to ask for at my baby shower.? And how much should each product cost? I heard somewhere that you should do a $50 limit. But, the baby shower IS 2 weeks before my due date, so should I be a bit more high priced with my gifts??? I.E. asking for cribs, bassinets, learning toys...
When to cut the shower guest list? At what point does a baby shower turn into "too many" people? I recently attended a shower where she got so many gifts it could have filled a school bus and then some. Mostly it was her mom's coworkers. But it got me to thinking, can you invite too many people to a shower? Wedding or baby?
What is proper etiquette for inviting my mother in law to a baby shower? I am being thrown 3 baby showers...my friends are throwing me a shower for friends/coworkers/etc, my aunt is throwing a shower for my side of the family and my husband's cousins are throwing a shower for his side of the family. I know for bridal showers proper etiquette dictated the mother in law be invited to all showers. Is it the same for baby showers or do I just include her on the list for that side of the family?
How much food do I need for my baby shower?!?!? I am trying to finish planning my baby shower and im stuck on the Food Shopping List. I am going to have a outdoor barbecue type of shower. Im thinking hot dogs, hamburgers, chips, corn on the cob, deviled eggs, watermelon, soda, and some kind of punch. Also my friend is making my cake..so i dont have to worry about that.. there are going to be around 25 adults and 5-7 kids. how much food should i need?? help me please..so confused.
Im having a baby shower and I dont know if I should invite my best girlfriends mom's? I am part of 5 VERY CLOSE girlfriends. We are all friends of 20 years and have done everything together. We all served as bridesmaids in each others wedding, etc. I was the first to get married and did not invite their parents to my wedding because I come from a HUGE family and the venue could only hold so many people. I do wish I included them, but we are past that now (2 years later).. I am 7 months pregnant and my sister wants my invite list for a baby shower. I want to invite my friends mom's because I wasnt able to have them at the wedding. But i've heard that you should invite similarly to your wedding list when it comes to baby showers? I dont want it to look rude if I invite them or that they are only good enough for 1 event and not the other? I certainly dont want it to look like I just want more gifts either, but they have all attended all the other weddings and we see each others parents often. Is it in bad taste to invite them or not invite them?? any suggestions?
What do you normally put on your baby shower registry? I've listed a couple of things but you might have other? items/ideas that i haven't thought of. I don't want to put too many things as i only want what really is essential. Hope you can help! Any ideas are welcome! (if it helps, i'll be staying home and plan to breastfeed)
I'm hosting a baby shower, what do I need to add to my list? Invitations, Table cloths, plates, forks, food, cake, balloons I guess those are the essentials.. but what else.. what am I forgetting?
Is it OK to tell people what NOT to give the mother -to -be on the baby shower invitation? I received a baby shower invitation in the mail. In addition to it listing the multiple places the mother to be registered, it included a lengthy list of gifts NOT to bring. (no pooh bear, elmo, colors that are not in the nursery,etc...) I thought it was rude. The gift I planned on giving the mother falls within the "do not bring" category. Should I still bring it, should I even go to the shower? When did this beome appropriate and any suggestions for confronting the mother? Thanks.
List of baby items? did I miss anything? Ok my friend don't have much money for her baby she is about to have in June.

Im giving her a baby shower also and Im trying to get everything she needs. yes she has a crib, someone gave her their old one She has a husband but his job barely covers the bills
What should you register for for the baby shower? My mom is throwing my baby shower in October, and I need to be registered at least by mid- to late- September. We already have my baby's crib, dresser, and night stand, but we are missing a lot of the big stuff. I know we will need a high chair, playard, stroller/carseat combo, but what other things do moms and dads to be register for? Is it silly to put diapers on the list? My mom thinks so, but those will DEFINATELY come in handy! :) What did (or what are you going to) register for? And ideas will be most appreciated! If it matters, I am registering at Babies R Us and Target.
How do I address baby shower invitations when giving the guest an option to bring their children? I don't necessarily want a lot of children at my shower but I realize it can cause a huge inconvenience to say "no children" for my friends that have a six month old baby. It would seem wrong to discriminate against older children so how should I address these invitations? I don't really want to list every child's name on the envelope but want to give the guests the option.
What are some good games to play at a baby shower? also another question, my aunts are hosting my baby shower and told me to get together the names and addresses of friends and family i wanted to attend. Once i made my list of everyone it came to be like 40 people in total..with my girlfriends,cousins, my family and his. Is this to many?? i realize not everyone will show up but i don't want to be rude and invite to many people for them to handle. What do you think? and good games and should i cut back on my guest list?
Where can I find personalized baby favor candles in limited quantity? I want to get personalized candles for my friend's baby shower but her guest list is quite large so that will get too expensive.

How many people should be on a baby shower guest list? My mom and sister (mostly mom) put about 60 people on her guest list. To me that seems like a huge number. I know all of them wouldn't come but still... My bridal showers usually only had 6-12 people. I'm the only hostess and planning and budgetting has been a nightmare. The shower is for my sister - and I'm hosting it for her - I'm not doing my own baby shower! LOL

Is it rude to put in a gift list with a baby shower invitation? I don't really need to much just a few little things. Is it rude to put a list in with shower invite. I don't to appear greedy or anything like that. People usually ask what you might need but I thought it might be easier. I live in Australia and we don't have gift registeries here at Target only at our really big and expensive stores.

Good/ Bad Idea? Baby Shower List? Is it a good idea to make a list of what I still need to send out with the baby shower invitations. My mom is in charge of the baby shower, and she said that sending a list would be a better idea that way instead of people having to by something from the registry they can buy it any where they find it. And she said that by sending a list it will give people an idea of what I still need. Is this a good idea?

I feel like Im forgetting some, so the number will most likely go up. I know that some people may not be able to come so it's not a definite number. How many people were invited to your Baby shower?
Should People You Don't Know Be at Your Baby Shower? Hi, my wife is having a baby shower and the list of guests is being made. I have about 10 people on my side of the family and my wife doesn't know them, but I've known them all my life and she doesn't want them at the shower b/c she doesn't know them... Is this normal? Thanks Just an fyi, she doesn't care about presents. I make the money and will have to cover everything that's not bought. I can do this, but it will put me out when we can easily get more presents. So, basically she doesn't care about the money b/c she knows I will pick up the slack...
invite them to baby shower or no? So i have 2 friends that I've known since 3rd grade and we were best friends all throughout high school and since I became pregnant they have became very distant and we barely talk anymore.When I approached them about the problem they act like nothing has changed. Last week we got into a big argument and havent talked for a few days. now its time for me to make a baby shower guest list, invite them or no?
is there a website that has a list of all the things a baby needs. Something for like a baby shower.? i've serched the web and the ones i've found are not good they are all missing stuff.
Is it okay to include a list of items we need in our baby shower invites? I've never had a real baby shower and there's not too much we need for this baby, so I don't want people to buy a bunch of the things we already have. Would it be rude or impolite to include a list of the items we still need in with the shower invitations? I would just enclose the registry cards, but I wasn't able to add some of the stuff we need to the registry because it doesn't show up online at WalMart. A lot of people have asked what we need, so I don't really think anyone would be offended. But then again, people are weird. I don't need any of the big gear type stuff, mostly things like bottles, etc. that you can't really have too many of so I don't think that would a problem either. I just don't want to seem like I'm being pushy or bossy about the gifts. I'll take whatever they want to buy, but I'd just like to give some suggestions about what we NEED.
I need a list of songs with the word Baby in it for a Baby Shower game.? Please give me a list of songs with Baby in it.

How do you deal with difficult baby shower guests? I told several people the probable dates for my baby shower and I let them know to watch for the invitations. I didn't ask anyone what day is best for them because I know I can't accomodate everyone. I had several people reply to my email and tell me that they aren't available on certain days. Unfortunately I can't take that into consideration because I had to choose the day that was best for the grandparents and the hostess. I totally understand if someone can't make it but think it's rude for them to try to tell me what date to have it. Then after the date is set a couple of people asked if they should bring their husbands. Well the husband's name was not on the invite and if they look at the guest list on the website they can see it's ladies only. Am I the only one with difficult friends or maybe I'm just too grouchy? I just think that everyone should politely decline or politely accept. :)
What can I give the dad-to-be at a couples baby shower? I'm throwing a baby shower for my brother and his wife. It's a couples shower. I'm buying some lotions and stuff for the mom-to-be from burts bees baby line, since I know she'd like it. But I would like to get my brother something too, that he will appreciate. I don't want it to be something really expensive because we are already spending a lot on the shower. Does anyone have any suggestions? And just some additional info: They are not registering anywhere so I can't just pick something off their list. And they've asked that no one buy them blankets, clothes, or soft toys, etc. (Long story) They also want to pick out their own crib, carseat, moniters, etc etc. So I'm looking for something kind of unique that would be more appreciated by dad than mom. Thanks in advance! :) good ideas so far! To answer a few questions: They are not going to find out the sex of the baby and it is their first. :)

In what ways can I be sensitive to the feelings of one friend while planning a baby shower for another? My closest friend has been trying to get pregnant, and has been through some meds and procedures- nothing is working yet. At this time another friend is pregnant and I am hosting her baby shower. I need some advice on how to be sensitive to the one having difficulty (she is on the guest list and to leave her off would cause people to question why). I doubt she will come. She seems to take it personally when others around her have babies- even strangers out in public. I know better than to discuss the planning of the shower with her. I can almost predict that once she gets the invitation, she will get upset and call me and make a point of reminding me she can't have kids (even though she's only been trying for a couple years and no where near being classified as barren) , and that she wouldn't be able to deal with it. I love her dearly and don't want her to feel any worse about this. Any advice???
Need some help writing some help writng thank you card for my baby shower? I need help writing Thank you cards for my baby shower. Should I say thank you for what I specifically got from them or just a general thank you? Like some of the gifts was several things like clothes, bibs, spoons, bottles ect. all from the same person. Should I list everything that they gave me in the card? Need some suggestions. Thanks so much!
How many games should you play at a baby shower? we will have roughly 60 women there.? I was thinking of 4 games in total. maybe one back up if needed. I was thinking A to Z baby names (see whom can list names for all 26 letters the fastes) Baby food game (guess what is which food) Possibly the Baby Diaper game (where you melt the small candy bars in the diapers and the people have to guess which diaper contains what) and Baby Shower bingo, With the guests ages in consideration i was thinking about the baby bottle race. (whom can empty a baby bottle the fastest) (of course the nipples would never be used again lol)
I found out that my Garden Gnomes are planning a surprise baby shower for me. They have been making a list? of names to help me pick out what to call this magical new creature. IDK if I like their names. What do you think? Snappy Tinky-Winky Marbles Liquiphart Blanket Lampshade Keelova Stringipoop Tangerine PLapps How do I pretend to like these names?
Should I be upset the way I am about my friend bailing out on my baby shower? I am 8 months pregnant and when I was 4 months my friend said she was going to throw my baby shower. I had 3 other people who wanted to throw a shower for me but I told them there was no need because my best friend was going to throw one. A bunch of people wanted to be invited and we went around to stores and registered for it and everything. Well the shower was supposed to be August 5th (in like 12 days) and my friend hasn't done anything with requards to the shower not even asked me for a guest list. So I called her today and she said she hadn't really thought about it at all and asked if we could just cancel. Of course I said we could cancel and I was nice about it but my feelings were pretty hurt. My other friends would have been happy throwing the baby shower but i blew them off cuz she said she would do it. I don't really need the shower we can afford to buy what we need ourselves, but I got excited about it. Should I really be this upset about her blowing me off? i don't understand your answer tkdgal. she isn't going to a baby shower she was supposed to throw mine! also for the others.. it is very improper to throw your own baby shower.. and shes not planning a suprise one, she wouldn't know who to invite we have completely different social circles. Shes not jealous or resenting my baby. She is the baby's god mother! Its just that her husband has been away for like 7 months and he just got home and shes got two jobs all in all a lot on her plate right now. I can actually understand why she doesn't have time to plan a shower. Still she shouldnt have said she was going to throw one in the first place.
