Who should host the baby shower?
Once upon a time, only non-relatives were to host a baby shower. If an immediate family member hosted a baby shower it was frowned upon as asking for handouts in the form of gifts. Today, with families and friends spread across countries, anyone who takes the initiative to plan the shower can host the baby shower. Relatives, a close friend, co-workers, or acquaintances of the mom-to-be can step in and act as host. As long as the expectant parents themselves do not have to host their shower, the role is open! Anyone is welcome to show their love and excitement for the new baby by hosting a baby shower.
