What is a reasonable amount of games to play at a baby shower?

I would say only two or three short ones because people get tired of that really fast. Most people can only stay a set amount of time anyways. Showers should never be more than an hour to two hours long anyways. Of course this is just my opinion.

That would partly depend on the games and how many people are playing. For example the game where you give everyone toilet paper and they have to pull off the amount they thing is closest to wrapping around Mom's pregnant waist. It's a short game but it takes longer for 40 people to do it than it does 10. One that you can play throughout the whole shower that we did was to give everyone a clothes pin that they clip anywhere to their clothes. Then give them a word that can't be said throughout the shower like "baby." When someone hears someone else use the word they take their clothes pins (however many they have at that point) The one with the most clothes pins at the end...wins a prize. I'm really bad at that game! but it is fun.
