A timeline for the weeks leading up to your baby shower is one of the best tools that a hostess (or host) can have. It is often surprising how many little details are needed to throw a successful baby shower and although you can do it all in a very limited time period, it is better for your nerves to give yourself lots of time to plan.
Let’s look at a week-by-week guide for taking a baby shower from conception to reality. Generally, you should spend several hours each week planning the shower.
Some weeks may have more time consuming tasks while others may have just a half hour of baby shower stuff required towards planning. This will also vary depending on how large your shower is and how many extra details you have decided to include.
Here at baby-shower.com, we have broken the timeline into ten weeks from start to finish but don’t hesitate to either condense or expand it to the period of time that you have available. We find that 10 weeks is the ideal amount of time needed to get everything done, at an easy and sustainable pace.
So let’s look at those weeks, starting from week 10 and then counting down until the main event.
