I think I'll have a birthway. Just a few of my close friends together for dinner and just acknowledging the new baby.
I was thinking about only doing a gender reveal/ diaper party this time. If someone offers to throw a shower that I don't have to really do anything for I might let them, but truthfully my daughter was only born last year and the shower was a huge disappointment and too much effort on my part.
I'm having another, my daughter is 1 1/2 and I'm 21 weeks with another girl. Every baby deserve a celebration. I dont want to have a page in my oldest baby book all about a baby shower and not one in this baby's book cause all baby books have a page just for the baby shower. I don't want any blank pages!
I had a boy 4 years ago. I'm having a girl in a few weeks but no shower. To me, it's tacky like asking other ppl to buy me things. But that is my own personal opinion.
I had two baby showers and this is my third child. One from my friends and family, another from my work family. I have a nine year old boy and a six year old girl so it is like starting over again. I also had one for my other two because they were opposite gender 3 years apart.
I don't think that a woman should have more than one shower. But it should not matter what baby they have the shower for. This is my sixth baby but I never had a shower for my other five, I will be for this baby..
To me I feel that the baby shower is a celebration for the new baby I don't think there's anything wrong with having more then 1 but I know there are some ppl who feel different about this
For the ladies that have everything maybe a diaper party can always use diapers! My friend had a really good idea her hubby is having a diaper party all the guys bring a bag a diapers and a case of beer watch the football game and BBQ thought it was cool
I had 2 my son was 1st then 5 years later I really didn't have anything left and I wasn't expecting to have any more kids 4 years after he was born I got pregnant with my new bf we decided not to find out what I was having ended up with a girl now I don't think I will have another shower since it was only a little over a year ago and I got neutral things we are waiting again to find out the sex I will probably throw a small get together of close friends and family after baby arrives
I had a shower with my 1st a son who is almost 3 yrs old. I am 26 weeks with my 2nd a girl and just had a shower last weekend(my mil was in town who lives outta state which is why it was so early) I didnt invite as many people as with my 1st but still was quite a few people since we both have big families. We didn't register and ended up with tons of clothes which was perfect cuz we had none we wanted to use from my son. I think every baby should be celebrated personally :)
Everyone I know who has had a second child close to their first has had a " sprinkle". But I have been to a couple of full on showers for second babies if the years in between the babies are significant.
I'm having a shower this is my 2nd
Im having one for my third. Since its been almost 9 yrs since I had a little girl. So excited.
I'm having a shower for my second. It's been 5 years so I don't have anything left and it's a different gender.
My first was a boy and this time girl I had a shower for my son, but decided not to this time. But I would have if certain things didn't happen, lost my grandma and grandpa that lived with me and family aunts uncle went a bit crazy. So decided I could do it all on my own with help from hubby. But I think it would have been nice to have one. I hope you decide to have one it's always fun to celebrate a baby.
I was wondering the same thing. My first was a girl, and now I'm having a boy. I saved everything from my daughter, and some of it I can use for a boy, but there are still things that I need for a boy.
