The baby shower is a way for the friends and relatives of the mom to bring things for her that she may not get a chance to buy because it is not easy for a pregnant mom to shop herself. The baby shower is also used to start the celebration for the arrival of the baby.

Normally, the female friends organize a lot of games as part of the baby shower. The games help to lessen the anxiety of the mom who might be engrossed in the thoughts of delivering the baby. If the sex of the baby is not already known, most of the games played during a baby shower are to guess if it is a boy or a girl and to make predictions who it would be. Obviously, these are just games designed to have fun and nothing else!

A baby shower is also the time for the friends and relatives to be with the pregnant lady and help out with something. They also make plans to be around if needed at the time of labor or delivery.
