During the Victorian era, a baby shower was a women-centered celebration.
Ladies of the family hosted tea parties for the would-be mom and the baby. This tea party was always held AFTER the baby was born, as a pregnant lady was not allowed to go out in public.
The baby shower served as the reason for family members, friends and relatives to come and see the new born baby. At this time umbrellas became a part of fashion, as a new mom was expected to carry parasols.
While everyone gave handmade gifts to the baby, Grandmothers gave something made of silver to the new mother and her child.
Things changed after World War II, a baby shower was viewed as a celebration of pregnancy.
The popularity of the occasion increased and baby showers started being held BEFORE the birth of the child. And expectant fathers, grandfathers and male relatives also became a part of the celebration.
Today a baby shower is regarded as a great way to support the expectant parents and share their happiness.
A baby shower is the perfect time for the would-be parents to collect things for the baby, such as linens, diapers, bottles, bibs, clothing, and blankets.
