Fun! What about a general winter theme, maybe "baby, it's cold outside?"

I had my shower at 33 weeks and I thought that was a good time. I had a nice big bump which is what people come to showers to see, and it was early enough that I wasn't super uncomfortable and I had time to take back gifts if I needed, set up and put together things, I wasn't freaking out about not having time to set up the nursery, etc.

I had my shower at 34 weeks and I was huge.

"Little Snowflake". It would be great to hang tons of snowflakes from the ceiling and put them on the table etc. It could easily go boy or girl.

I would be a bit unsure about doing anything during the month of December...people are always complaining about being so busy, esp. during the holidays.

Maybe the first weekend of December?

I think 30-34 is perfect timing for showers, it gives the mom enough time to get the remainder of items after showers are done & she's (hopefully) not worried about going into early labor at this time. The only issue you will run into is the holidays, it might be difficult to plan around that time.

I love the "Baby, It's Cold Outside" or something with snowflakes. You could have some really cool but affordable decoration ideas!

i think planning around the holidays sort of changes the normal schedule of things. for example, my sister-in-law is due january 1st, and we're actually doing her shower october 6th. november is full, and december would be cutting it too close. my baby is due beginning of february, and we're doing my shower the middle of november.

if i were you i would aim for mid-november. i wouldn't necessarily do a winter shower in november, though. if you could manage to plan something for early december a winter theme would be really nice. do you use pinterest? there are a TON of cute winter showers on there.
