The new baby shower is held in a venue, beautifully decorated with modern colours and themes and plated meals being served instead of finger foods. And gifts range from the cute and fuzzy stuffies, to high tech gadgets including baby monitors baby fetal dopplers so the parents to be can listen to their baby’s heartbeat and create lasting memories before it is even born.

There are also some new trends in the way baby showers are decorated with themes that incorporate mother as well as baby and give a more modern take on the antiquated baby shower ideas of old.
