Diaper Party?

Has anyone been to one of these or had one thrown for them? My dad was at the Indy 500 last week and saw a bunch of advertisements for them at Hooters (of all places). Anyway now he wants to throw my FI one. Did some research and it sounds cool. Just wondering if anyone has any first hand experience. Dad wants make it guys only- which is cool by me. I think they may do a poker game and bbq.?

  • Apparently, everyone brings diapers or wipes or something like that. They just do something like go to Hooters (ha!), a ballgame, bbq- whatever they want to do.
  • They are kind of a tradition in my family.  They are typically guys only because its supposed to be the guys version of a baby shower.  The guests have to bring a pack of diapers as there "ticket/invitation" to get in.  At my cousins her DHs friends brought so many diapers that she didnt need to buy any the first five months.  And just like the shower will be your day to be ooohhed and awwwed over this will be the day he gets to talk about it with his buds. 

     

    My Cousin in Law had the theme "Potty Like a Rockstar" as a kind of joke for his.  They BBQ playe darts and drank.

  • DH had a Diaper Party for DD. It was the same day/time as my shower & all his buddies came over to the house with a pack of diapers, and had beer & wings, and they played pool & horseshoes. The guys had a fun & we got lots of diapers Smile

  • I think it's a fun idea, but DH is the first out of his friends to have a baby so I can't imagine his friends going to a store to buy diapers bwah ha ha...
  • Ive heard of them. I think they sound SO fun for the guy! I wish someone would throw DH one.

    H's coworker is having one in July. Just another excuse for the boys to hang around and drink. It gets me diapers though so I don't mind! I'm not sure if H will want to do one. That is up to him and if anybody wants to throw one for him.

  • My DH almost had a diaper shower thrown for him. I think they are great! It's just a typical guys outing/event but they bring diapers are theire "entrance fee."

    We ended up with a co-ed shower so they didn't do the diaper one but I think it's a good idea.  A practical, easy and fun way for the dad to be celebrated, too.

  • I've heard of them. It's baby shower for men. The guests bring a pack of diapers and they sit around and drink or go golfing. It makes it more about the dad and gives them their own party to celebrate the baby. DH and I have talked about this. I was thinking of throwing it for him and buying beer and food and letting them have a Guys' Night and grill out and drink while I go hang out with some of my friends. DH is still deciding if it's something he wants to do or not.
