| Tips and Fun Facts You Might Want to Know Traditions The "showering" of a the "Mommy-to-Be" has been popular in many countries for hundreds of years but not in the style we know it today. Gifts were given when after a baby was born -- usually at the baby's religious christening or at the baby's debut (it was very common until the middle of this century that no one was invited to the house until the baby was at least a month old because of the fear of diseases). In the very late 1800's, Victorian ladies began having teas for mommy but not till after the baby was born because pregnant women did not appear in public. In the early 1900's, the teas transformed into "showers" (based on the "showering" of the bride before her marriage) and umbrellas became symbolic because it was customary for ladies to carry parasols when they attended these afternoon gatherings. Almost all of the gifts were handmade except the silver that was given to the babies by the grandmothers. In today's world, baby showers are customary and great fun -- especially for a first-time mommy and are referred to as "sprinkles" for mothers having second or more children. Is It Acceptable to Serve Cake and Punch Instead of a Meal? Cake and Punch is very appropriate and makes for a shorter shower. Serving any meal is strictly up to the hostess. If food is served, plan on buffet-style and remember to provide either real dishes or sturdy papergoods because food does get heavy. If it is not a sit-down meal (restaurant or hall), remember that guests have to balance their plate, beverage and napkin on their lap. How About a Baby Shower for a Second Child? If this is mommy-to-be's second or third or more time, then consider throwing a "SPRINKLE" instead of a full shower. Ask the guests to bring disposable diapers, cereal, baby food, baby shampoo, wipes, even personal items for mom. |
