Shower Thank Yous Before the Shower??

My family and bms are throwing a shower in about 3 weeks.  We're registered on Amazon so people can ship the gifts to us, mostly for free and so we have less to haul on a plane because our families are spread out between Wyoming, PA and Kansas.  This week I started getting shower gifts in the mail.  We've opened them to make sure they're all ok, work, etc and we know who they're from.

My question, do I send thank yous now or wait until after the shower?  It's possible people may get smaller gifts to go w/ the gifts they already got me...a few people have had that idea apprently.  Or is it ok to wait about a month until I send out the thank yous after the shower?  I don't mind doing it now, but I don't want to jump the gun either.  I also don't want people to think I'm unappreciatitve, because I'm not at all!!  Thoughts?
