It’s like a baby shower but…different.

Baby showers have long been a rite of passage for expectant mothers.

Generally, baby showers are women-only affairs that exclude the father-to-be or or simply have him appear briefly at the end.

But a trend that is catching fire of late is the "dadchelor party" — a baby shower thrown for a dad-to-be.

While this isn't a totally new phenomenon, these parties have seen a sudden increase in popularity. According to Pinterest, ideas for man showers are up 149% in the last year alone.
