Help!!! I have a host who wants to do something different than a baby shower. She wants to do a "Mommy Shower"! Do I do it like a baby shower? Or do I do it like a wedding shower, so that the mommy can get things that she needs to make her life easier? HELP!!! I don't know what to do!:confused:
 
I would put together products that would make life easier for a new mom, like the micro-cooker, food chopper and anything else that could be used for making baby food. Maybe have a few baby food recipes together. You could also suggest easy recipes (like the power cooking ones) that the mom could put together and freeze before the baby comes to make it easier for meals for the rest of her family after the baby is born.

I'm sure others will have some great ideas for you! Sounds like it could be a really fun show! :)

I looked in the files for you. I remembered there was a form that listed all the "baby uses" of various items. The first document is good as well for the Mommy Shower you are talking about! That's a great idea!
