It's just what the midwife ordered. You've given birth, your body's in freefall, the baby's howling, your shoulder's covered in sick, you're propping your eyelids open with matchsticks and battling the baby blues. But, hey, why not have a party?
The new baby trend taking the US by storm is sip and see – a post-birth, show-off extravaganza where you throw an open house party for people to drop in, sip your booze (champagne, obviously) and see your new offspring (looking angelic, obviously). It's only a matter of time before the phenomenon crosses the Atlantic – baby showers are just so last trimester.
