When do you think is a good time to have a baby shower? 2 months, one month, or a couple of weeks before your due date? I think 2 months to one month so that way you have time to buy the things you still need and didnt get from your shower. Anything earlier than a couple months before and all the stuff just sits in the way.

I agree with what you have chosen, that would be a perfect time for the said occasion for that very practical reason!

I had my baby shower about a month before I gave birth to my first born. I had my shower in May and gave birth to my son in June. happy So long as the pregnancy is going smoothly I think a month before the due date is a good time to throw a baby shower. cool

I'm not really sure because baby showers aren't something that people generally do here in Australia.

If i had to pick a time though i'd go with about 2 months before the due date - too much later than that & there's not a lot of time left to buy the extra things that will be needed & if you leave it until 1 months before the due date & the baby comes early - you'll be pretty stuck!

I have always thought, though, that it's better you buy the major things you want/need after your first trimester - that way, you already have the main of it & the people invited to the shower can focus more on the smaller, less expensive items - since the baby & the items they require are really the responsibility of the parents to be anyway.

Maybe that's the reason we don't have baby showers here, people are happy to just go out & buy all the things for themselves - then they know what they're buying & can get everything they want in whatever design they like - then there's less chance of getting things you don't want or like^_^

About a month before your due date seems ideal to me, especially if the baby comes early.
