			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Kristen wrote asking about holding a Baby Shower for a Lebanese woman:</p>
<blockquote><p>A friend of mine living in the United States who is Lebanese is due to have a baby very soon.  Would it be appropriate to have a baby shower of some sort?  I certainly wouldn&#8217;t want to offend her culturally, and am not familiar with Lebanese customs.  Could you point me in the right direction.</p>
<p>Thank you,</p>
<p>Kristen Emond</p></blockquote>
<p>We asked Roula from Lebanon about holding Baby Showers.  Roula answered that <em>&#8220;a baby shower is quite unknown in Lebanon, but that it&#8217;s a nice idea that won&#8217;t offend anyone&#8221;</em>.</p>
<p>If anyone would like to discuss Baby Shower traditions in different countries, feel free to comment below.</p>
