A friend of mine had a "get together" with her first pregnancy and all the ladies sat around and each gave her a bead to make a necklace and shared their birth/mothering story. If they weren't a mum yet they shared a positive story about their mum or sister etc. in the end she had a weird looking funky necklace but it was an awesome focal piece for her during labour to remind her of her rite of passage as a mother and a woman and that she had the support of so many women that had been before her. She still treasures it.

I went to a baby shower on the weekend, just a small one, and they had some one come and do mini mani and pedis. It was a nice little girly afternoon rather than a baby shower as such. The mum to be loved it and everyone else had a good time too.
