Having them around would surely to make her feel more loved and special instead of feeling insecure about her present looks. She would also be able to take a much needed break from the humdrum and worries about the birth of the baby.

Invited guests would be more excited about the baby shower and celebrating this special moment with the mom-to-be.

Sending Out Birth Announcement Cards
Baby announcement cards basically publicize the birth of a new member to the family. As parents, you would most likely want to share the joy you feel about having a new baby in your life. Although there is no need for you to feel pressured about distributing baby birth announcements, you should do it the soonest time possible and no later than four months. It is crucial for you to send the baby announcement cards even before your closest friends and relatives see the baby.
Since this is an announcement about the birth of a new bundle of joy in your family, the baby announcement cards should be complete with details about the baby. Make sure to write down the name of the baby, as well as the gender, time and date of birth. You can also indicate the weight and length of the infant to complete information on the card.
Finally, make sure that your baby birth announcements include a close-up photo of the baby. This way, people can ’meet’ your baby even before they pay you and your baby a visit. By learning how your baby looks like even before the actual meeting, your friends and family will be even more excited for you. Lastly, to truly make your baby announcement cards count, choose a design that can easily be set apart from the rest.
