Sorry, I'm from England and we obviously don't have them. This has always intrigued me.
Is it when you "show" off a new baby? I assume it's not a "shower" like you would have in the morning! When I first saw the phrase, I did have to stop and think about the pronounciation!!

Thank you. I didn't realise it tended to happen before the baby was born. Sounds rather jolly!!
Sorry, next question, so it is pronounced shower because you are "showering" with gifts, rather than show-er, as in to show.

its held before the baby is born so the mom can get stuff for the baby
i dont really know why its called a "shower" i've always thought that to be kinda of wierd bt thats what it is
there is also showers before weddings for basicly the same reason
its pronounced the same as a shower you would take to get clean

I had a toddler bathe for all 4 of my little ones. like you, I no longer had the previous toddler's products after I had the subsequent one. (My 1st 3 little ones are 5yrs aside, the third one replaced right into a woman and then my very last new child is 7 yrs youthful than my daughter.) If people favor to provide you a bath then enable them. the rule of thumb is that you do not supply your self a bath. yet...It makes a lot less issues so that you'll might want to purchase. I see no longer something incorrect with getting showered for all of your little ones. Is the first one the surely human being who's assume to get this particular remedy? i do not imagine so. back contained in the day even as people had a baby 10 months to a 365 days aside, you probably didn't wish to have yet another bathe because you nevertheless had the toddler stuff and maximum toddler products were unisex-white dressing gowns and diapers-yet in recent times maximum persons wait a pair of years or more desirable between little ones, so that you finally end up desiring to interchange each thing from the first or next bypass round. it truly is not written in stone to have surely a million toddler bathe. the persons who say that you shouldn't have yet another are both stingy, propose-hearted or basically did not get fantastic bathe presents themselves. ha ha ha. it truly is what you may want to assert to the detrimental people. snigger it off and luxuriate on your bathe or Showers.

A baby shower is a time when a pregnant woman have a gathering with other women, they bring the pregnant woman gifts to congratulate, new life in to the world, they also talk about child birth, amongst many other things! This is all I really can tell you right about now about baby showers, I don't have kids my self but I have a family member that do!

no, it is before the baby is born, is to indulge the mother and the baby with gifts to prepare for the arrival of the new human being. I've been to a couple (as a kid, since this is more a women thing) and basically the women get together to play games, eat, have tea and talk about the mother and the baby.

a baby shower is something that friends of the mother to be usually hold for her and the upcoming baby. the friends bring little gifts and stuff for the new baby and silly little gifts for the new mom. Basically like a babies "hen night". This is something that is very American

It can either occur before or after the baby is born.
It is basically when a bunch of people ( usually woman) get together and shower the baby/mother with gifts.
It is also done for wedding as well.

It is when the mom-to-be's friends and family "Shower" her with gifts for the baby. They get together and play games and have food and cake.
