How to host a "gender-reveal" baby shower?

If you want gender specific gifts, or do not want to be returning gifts that are gender specific if the person picked wrong, then yes you need to figure out a way to make the shower itself after the gender reveal. But if you are content with a non-specific baby room theme and gifts that are not pink or blue or tailored toward one gender over the other, it is perfectly fine to have a neutral baby shower and reveal all then. There are still plenty of people who do not know the gender ahead of the birth who have fully successful baby showers ahead of time as well. There is no one right way to do this, just do what makes most sense to you.

I'm planning on doing the same thing. I'm currently 10 weeks pregnant. I would suggest having your reveal party first, then a month or so later have your baby shower. There aren't any rules to how these things go, so you do it how you want. Also a little update: You don't have to receive gifts at your gender reveal party. So the user that said something about being a gift grabber is not true. At the reveal you could host a dinner, and just have a small family get together.

No, it's not correct. You get one party, unless you're a gift-grabber who wants a reveal party AND a baby shower. Otherwise, you do the reveal at the baby shower.

Do as YOU please

gender neutral baby items will be easier to hand down and you will not end up with a SEA of pink if it is a girl
