SINGLE WOMAN WEDDING
Atlantic blogger Millie Kerr
raised eyebrows in November
when she argued that single
people should get to have
weddings “or some other kind of
party that involves gifts, toasts,
and lots of friends” — a notion
that Carrie Bradshaw may have
started a decade ago when she
bemoaned the lack of adult
milestones for singles. Fine
if you want to throw yourself
a lavish birthday party, but
creating a registry may remind
friends why you’re still single.

DADCHELOR PARTY
Sometimes called diaper kegs,
daddymoons or man-showers,
these parties give dads-tobe a chance to go wild before
fatherhood takes over. Unlike
expectant moms, dads can
continue to drink throughout
the pregnancy.
ULTRASOUND PARTY
Ultrasound techs are now making extra cash by charging $100
or $350 to perform a sonogram at an expectant mother’s home,
in front of her family and friends. “What if the ultrasonographer
started the ultrasound and there was no heartbeat?” asked Dr.
Amber Sills on Today.
