It's unlike the Americans to be down-sizing ;-)

So? Its just a girlie party where everyone brings presents for the new baby...saves parents a bit on the "start-up" costs of having kids. :-)

I don't really see the need for them but they seem relatively harmless and people seem to enjoy organising them.
