Question:

My sister is expecting her second baby girl in Sept. I want to have her a little shower but she has almost all of her big stuff and we have already gotten her other things and she has bought stuff along the way. A friend of mine was telling me about someone she knew that had like a diaper, wipe, and gift card party but I'm not really sure how to do the wording on the invitation to where it doesn't sound like I'm just telling people what to do. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. i have searched and searched the internet but can't find anything. Thanks.

Answer:

Dear Amy,

The type of party you are asking about is called a "diaper shower," a popular option for second babies.

Many like to use a diaper-themed invitations to announce the upcoming birth! And instead of the words "baby shower," why not use "diaper shower?" Plan diaper-themed decorations, games, raffles, and maybe even a diaper-shaped cake! Remember that most people will think of disposable diapers when they are shopping for a diaper shower so, if the Mother-to-Be uses cloth diapers, it's a good idea to have her register for her preferred brand and style plus the other supplies she'll need like pins and vinyl pants. There are services that offer green solutions these days for alternatives to disposable diapers. Please see our product recommendations for earth-friendly diapers!

Happy Showering,
