MAKE MOM-T0-BE FEEL EXTRA SPECIAL ON HER BABY SHOWER

Baby shower is not just some kind of party, it’s a party where friends and family of the mom-to-be gather to show their love and support to the mom-to-be on her journey to mommyhood and her little bundle of joy on the way.

Although it is important to plan for the guest list and gift registry, and to plan for the place and date when to throw the party, the bottomline is that the mom-to-be must feel loved and cared for. It does not matter who you invite or where the party is hosted, and what food you have or what you do during the party. What matters the most is that the mom-to-be feels extra especial on that day.

So how do you make her feel extra special on her baby shower?

SHOWER HER WITH LOTS OF LOVE

Yes, mom-to-be needs a lot of gifts for her baby on the way and herself. First time moms has a lot to prepare. From essential items like the nursery, baby crib, stroller, carrier, and the likes  down to smaller items that she’ll need plenty of like diapers, baby wipes, bath soaps and all.

The mom-to-be also needs a lot for herself. With the changes her body goes especially during pregnancy and also after childbirth, she’ll stuff like maternity dresses, sleepwear, nursing bra among many others to help go thru the process with ease.

So, more than the gifts, first time moms need to cope up with the pressures, stress, anxiety and other emotional and psychological challenges she goes thru throughout her journey to mommyhood. The experience is going to take a lot of toll on her. That is why moms, especially first timers go thru severe depression after childbirth and even during pregnancy.

They need to feel loved and cared for. They need to see who cares for them, and feel their care and support. So, make sure that when you plan for her baby shower, your guest list includes the people most dear to her, and that you have an activity intended for her guest to express their genuine support to the mom-to-be. Create an atmosphere of showing love and joy. Make sure that she is showered with all the love and comfort she needs.

Day or Night Out With the Gals

Often because of pregnancy, mom-to-be never gets to hang out with girlfriends like she used to. She is often detached from the world she used to live, and also because her pregnancy limits her activity. This is one of the reason why pregnant women, specially first timers, get depressed. The situation magnifies after childbirth when she can barely have time for herself.

So, instead of items or maybe in addition to your gifts, how about her girlfriends organize a baby shower, the kind of shower that gives the vibe of a girls day or night out.

Gather all the girls, do a pajama party or sing karaoke or bingewatch chick flicks or do some baking. You cam also be a little bit adventurous  to go for a night out or book a fancy restaurant for some fine dining.

Finally, to make mom-to-be feel extra special, your plan doesn’t have to be so grandious, but make sure that whatever activity you do or wherever you plan to go, it is safe for her and her baby on the way. Also, incase you don’t know, the gesture alone of you organizing the baby shower for her and putting things together, will make her feel loved and absolutely special.
