Dadchelor Party (original) (raw)

A Dadchelor party, otherwise referred to as a Man Shower or a baby stag, is a party that is similar to a baby shower, but instead of being held for the mother-to-be, it is held for the father-to-be. It is a celebratory event held for a man shortly before he enters fatherhood to celebrate his last days before fatherhood or merely to spend time with his male friends. The baby stag is usually planned by a friend or a group of friends of the future father and is modeled after bachelor parties. Typically the event is held before or early in the third trimester of pregnancy. It is an emerging trend for fathers in the 21st century.
