I see no problem with it.
Every child should be celebrated. It should not be limited to the first child.

no i don’t think so… i would have a baby shower no matter how many kids i had. sometimes people have their kids far apart and then already got rid of all of their stuff.

I only had 1 for my first. Two years later I had my second child and I did not have a baby shower. My step mom is having a baby shower for her thrid child but my youngest step sister is 12 lol.

I think that if a family member or a friend wants to throw you a shower for a 2nd or 3rd baby, i feel that is just fine! If you were to throw yourself one it would be kind of tacky.

i guess it really depends on the family and friends…my sis is about to have her 3rd baby and 3rd baby shower..which i can’t attend do to distance but it’s really up to the family and everything…i really don’t see a problem with it. all babies are special and should be celebrated.

I see it as a personal decision. My friends want to throw me a shower this time just as they did with my first. I didn’t bring it up. I think most people see a baby shower as a celebration, not a reason to scream “Give me THINGS!”.
I often wonder about the people that have strong feelings against it. What do you care?? LOL If you don’t think it’s right just don’t go.

I have heard so many people have them with their second baby if it was a different sex than the first baby. I have already been told if this baby is a girl they are giving me a shower lol I think it all depends on the family and what they want lol good luck

i dont see it this way… i know some people who have had kids 5+ years apart… are they supposed to have everything from their first child?? i think in certain circumstances its not required, but i feel for the most part that it shouldnt matter how many kids you have, its a way for your family and friends to be there in a way that makes the mommy-to-be feel special and get more excited… *personal opinion i guess*

Honestly, I don’t have a problem with it. I’ve never even thought anything negative about it when I’ve been invited to one. Usually though when someone I’ve known has a shower for their second babies it’s typically a “diaper shower” where people just bring things like diapers, wipes, etc. Just because it is not their first baby, they still need those, and I think every baby is a reason to celebrate.
