parents-to-be.
Also, the shower doesn't neccessarily have to be planned and given by only one person. After all, a baby shower can be a huge undertaking, and having several people participate will help divide up all the work involved. A group of friends or relatives could get together and plan the event. This would be a wonderful display of showing your happiness for the new arrival for the parents-to-be.
However, traditional baby shower ethics were somewhat stricter than today. That only non-relatives are to host a baby shower—friends, co-workers, church groups, and even neighbors etc. But times have changed, and it has become more common and acceptable for relatives to host baby showers too. And why not? Everyone has a right to celebrate the occasion. When it comes to close relatives they are supposed to support the couple.
Not only this, but a baby shower is also an opportunity to pamper the guest of honor. Once the new baby joins the family, it may take the new parents a considerable amount of time, money and effort to indulge in greeting and partying with the baby shower guests. So, instead of burdening them further with more responsibilities. Why not treat them to something special?
