Need baby shower alternatives.?

Plenty of people have multiple baby showers because of reasons like that, I just thought I'd throw that out there first.

Secondly, you can always have a BBQ or a picnic or just a pot luck dinner and make it baby themed. Not really a typical baby shower, but you could find some creative idea's to throw in with it. Like, make some food that sounds or looks baby themed or something. I'm assuming its co-ed, you mentioned babies dad coming. That way the men there would be more comfortable, they could take care of the meat or whatever. You know men and meat... haha.

Edited to add for the first reply: She said he IS an option...

How bout a family bbq? It is a great time of year for one, summer time. It can be like baby shower with out all the fancy decorations and stress. Just sit back relax enjoy the outside with family. Maybe have a few small baby shower games, and a cake for dessert.

Good Luck!

Get together with friends Female and Male along with your step daughter and husband. make some dinner and play some games were you can give them advice for them and the newborn.

You can also throw a babyshower its never too much. maybe do it different. For example ask her what she still needs and make a list play game have guest bring a item that she still needs, play a raffle. I dont know. Just come up with new stuff.

Or have a Baby shower with females and males. (friends) play games buy a piggy bank and have everyone insert some coins and while they are doing that they came make a wish for the baby and give suggestions to parents.

I would definitely come up with a "Welcome Baby" party, you can schedule it for after the baby comes, they're still standard to bring/give gifts for mommy and baby, and you'll know then what she still needs or could use....like diapers, wipes, or even just cards with gift certificates so she can buy clothing when the baby grows out of what was given at the shower.

Good luck and congrats!!

i did no longer have a sprint one bathe and persons nevertheless sent presents to me. i became into interior the middle of a flow so it wasn't fairly a possibility. i do no longer possibly think of that is correct to anticipate presents whilst no bathe is thrown however. as a replace of a sprint one bathe only have a huge social gathering, invite every physique you elect for to friends or relatives, grill some burgers and only communicate with anybody...and in case you get presents, you get presents. a sprint one bathe would not must be all approximately enjoying goofy video games. I do think of that is totally impolite to have this "un-bathe" only think of approximately it: costly buddy, i'm no longer having a sprint one bathe yet i might like some presents because of the fact i choose for issues for the hot toddler so ought to you please deliver me something? thank you-

My family is waiting till after my son is born to have our "baby party" so that we don't have to deal with the tons of people just randomly showing up at the house at random days.

we are buying sharpies and paint and letting people decorate Onzies that Ryan will wear as he grows. we get the use out of the onzies and it entertains all ages to do it.

you can ask your OB about what she thinks the baby will weight at birth and get onzies of lots of sizes so that your family sees the use of them all.

You should have a diaper party instead with your family. You can never have enough diapers and that is one way for her to be stocked up on them.

Best of luck!
