There are a lot of milestones worthy of celebration in a person’s life, but a baby shower is definitely one of the celebrations that tops any life list.

A baby shower may also be celebrated before the birth of a child.

That said, at your baby shower, you can expect to see every one of importance, and not-so-importance, gracing your event. All of these people will be there to celebrate with you, instil some parenting wisdom in you and gift you with enough items for the mother and new-born.
