Why do they call it a baby 'shower?'?

Is it because the baby is being 'showered' with sweet monkey love- and/or gifts?? : )

Answer:
You "shower" the mom & baby with gifts silly!
I think that is why they call it a shower...to shower the mom and baby with love.
To be showered with gifts to make their life easier, i.e. things they need. Same for a wedding shower.
"showered" with gifts for the baby
Showered with love and gifts ...lol what is monkey love?
shower also means to give in abundance, therefore baby shower, to give in amount to the baby
it is called a baby shower because the guest are shower the new mom with gifts to help her with the new baby
I think it's because you shower the mom to be with baby gifts

to shower the mom and baby with love and gifts and to help celebrate the new baby on the way
