Even if you’ve already had the baby that doesn’t mean you can’t still hold a baby shower. If anything having the baby on hand can encourage more guests to show up at the party with lots of needed gift items. Make sure to tell guests on the invitations that this is a post-delivery shower, and indicate on the invitations what items would be the most appreciated. Do be certain to tell everyone that they needn’t feel obligated, especially if they already donated stuff before the baby was born and they certainly don’t have to bring something from the list if they happen to have a baby item on hand just bring it on over.
Also you’ll want to give your guests a little something in return for taking the time to buy or bring a needed item and coming over to celebrate this special holiday. There are two ways that work best. One, you feed them some good food and two; give them a little memento of the baby to remember.
It’s easy to make up a quick buffet of food such as cold cuts, relish dishes and a box of donuts. Drinks can be sodas, water, tea and coffee. Serve it up on baby shower themed paper supplies like napkins, tablecloth, and paper plates and it will be even easier to clean up.
The memento of the baby can be something as simple as a homemade card with the baby’s footprint. You can create this by pressing his or her little foot against an ink pad like they do at hospitals, and pressing it against the inside of the card. Then, you can add even more to the card by taping a photo of the baby on the opposite inside face of the card. These make great party favors to give to the guests, especially if most of them will be close family.
