Baby Shower
I had a baby shower for my second child because my daughters are 10 years apart and I had given everything and I mean everything away. My friends planned a surprise shower for me. It was very much appreciated in my situation.
I do that, too. I don't like to shower first to power clean
the house because then you get all sweaty with cleaning chemicals all over.
just had a shower for twins 2 mths ago

The gift baskets as mentioned by some posters were the hits.  Bathtub filled with all the bath essentials, diaper changer or pale with all diapers, wipes, etc, bottle sets, bib's, socks, blankies and all the basics. 


Since it was twins, we also had people pitch in with dinner dates...pick a night and bring dinner for the exhausted new parents.  They ended up having fantastic food for over a month


Shower for first...diaper party for second.

It was lots of fun and I received so many diapers and wipes, which I was so thankful for.  It was much smaller and more personal. Not to mention, it was nice to have a party, even small, to welcome the second baby.


Got a baby shower invitation

from a cousin who NEVER attends any showers, weddings, graduation parties, NOTHING. Not just my stuff, but doesn't attend for *anyone* in the entire family not even her siblings and their kids. Doesn't send a gift. Doesn't RSVP with an excuse, not even a lame excuse. Just totally ignores everyone. No one can believe she had the nerve to invite EVERYONE to her event. LOL.


I'm not going, not sending a gift either. It isn't that I am selfish, I just can't understand why someone who doesn't care to participate in family giving ALL OF A SUDDEN decides she wants to participate in family RECEIVING.


I wish them well, but I'm just not interested. What do you guys think? Am I wrong?

A long hot shower works wonders, or take some
Tylenol and lay down for about 20 minutes and give it time to kick in.   Take a short walk if the heat isn't unbearable where you are.  I know if you hurt you may not feel like it, but probably part of your aches are because you don't get enough exercise - I know that is my problem.   I have recently had to start taking a break about every hour and move around for 15 minutes and that has helped a bit.  
Having a baby shower for my sister this weekend

Any ideas on food, games, etc.? 


One game that I have decided to play is 'guess what baby had for lunch.'  You put baby food in diaper and have everyone guess what flavor.  I have already planned my food; however, I want something different. 


I love baby shower games.

You can make a diaper out of a paper napkin.  Whoever gets the "dirty" diaper (with peanut butter in it) wins a prize.  Taste the baby food contest where everyone gets a dollop of several kinds of baby food on a paper plate, and you have to guess what's what.  Pick the baby safety pins out of a bowl of rice blindfolded.  Scoop the cotton balls off the floor into a bowl blindfolded with a spatula.  The memory game where you look at a tray full of baby items for one minute, then write down as many as you can remember.  All of the baby items go to the Mom-to-be at the end of the game.  You can find cute little prizes at the dollar store.


The other poster is right.  There are tons of baby shower websites out there to snag ideas from  Have fun with it!


Then again you could end up w/one that nurses q2h like mine did! Lucky to get a shower in even. nm

Is there anything that truly cleans textured shower floors? (sm)
I'm talking about mostly water stains, as well as on shower doors. I can get the soap scum out. TIA!
It's been ages since I was invited to a baby shower.
Care to share?  What's the ONE thing or several if you must that you WISH somebody had gotten you but didn't when you had your baby showers?  Maybe there's someone here with a new baby who could share what they'd have appreciated as a shower gift.  Thanks.
I received an invitation to a baby shower that shocked me....sm

It was for a friend having her second baby...already strange because I thought baby showers were only for the first baby, when you don't have any of the necessary items. The worst part, though, was that printed on the invitation was the ADMISSION PRICE to the party! It was a tea party at a tea room of some sort. It also was printed on the invitation what gift to bring! 


I chose not to go to the party. I politely declined and gave an appropriate gift of my own choosing at a later date.


 


 


Totally! I opted out of going to a cousin's wife's 2nd shower
after only 3 years! Ridiculous. The baby was even the same sex. And SHE never got rid of anything. So, I heard later that she took just about everything back to the store for refunds/exchanges! Really something, huh?
In my family, shower for first baby only, unless it has been an unusually long time between
pregnancies and things would already be given away or outdated.  I had a regular shower for baby outfits, strollers, etc, but also had a "diaper/general use" shower for diapers, bath stuff, lotions, etc, and this was great because it gave me a chance to stock up.
Mine used to vomit with the toilet flushing or while in the shower. Never made any noise at all.

I use ergonomic keyboard, gloves, splints at night, but sometimes what works best is a cool shower.

5 minutes to myself, quiet, a shower with quiet and no interuptions (never happens) and fresh air -
