My sons room is going to be monkey themed, green and brown. I was planning on doing the baby shower this theme but then I saw a sports baby shower and I fell in love! my husband LOVES sports and I think its totally cute. but I would feel kind of weird since it has nothing to do with anything on my registry or anything at all really! what do you think?

my registry is a lot of monkey stuff!

I need to find a gift for a baby shower I will be attending, and I’m struggling to find something for a newborn that is high end and of good quality. What are some good not way too expensive brands for newborn clothing? Thanks!:)

A close friend recently had her baby shower and afterward I asked what she still needs and she said she doesn’t have a baby bag. She specified that she has a diaper bag already, but not a baby bag.

I have been invited to a baby shower for a friend who is having her second is as many years. People I have known in the past didn’t really have showers after the first, of if they did, they didn’t set up a registry and ask for gifts, instead they would ask for diapers or food for after the baby, but not 0 crib bumpers ect. But, it’s been a while and I was just wondering what the current etiquette is.

I need to find a place, like maybe a church, willing to help with donations for a baby shower by at least the 20. I believe the shower is the 15.
Also, live in the mishiwaka/south bend area of indiana

Setting up a nursery for baby?

When did you start setting up the baby nursery and buying stuff for baby? How about the baby shower, when was yours? I am only 5-6 weeks so I have plenty of time, I just wanted to get a general idea of a time line.
