    In my family we have a shower for every baby born cause every baby needs things. Not just one shower. I had 3 kids in 3 years and was given a shower for each of them. I am pregnant with my 4th and even though I'm only 6w5d my sister is already talking about the shower she wants to throw me lol

I need the baby stuff real bad im only one out of friends n family having a girl (: so its no biggie I say go for it!!

    Absolutely! I'm planning my third and my kids are each 2 years apart. Babies are a fantastic reason to have a party--there isn't much that's more exciting.

    I think it is okay!!! Every baby on the way should be celebrated :) Sometimes people get so caught up in protocol like with weddings and stuff. If anyone on your invite list has a problem they can always just not go. But if I was invited I would bring food and gifts!

    I had a big baby shower when I had my daughter in 2009. Now I'm having a boy and going to have two showers.

    I have had two baby showers so far for this baby. One in Michigan with my family and friends, one in Illinois with my husbands family and friends, and one in Arizona where we live. I think its fine :)

    Im going to have a sprinkle. I still have some things but need some too. Lool it up

    Since it's been five years in between this one and the last, I would see no reason you shouldn't be able to throw a baby shower for this one. After all, you will need many new things (for example, some of your older things may have excess wear, etc.), and I am sure there are many family and friends of yours who would love to celebrate this new life with you! :) I would say go for it; I personally see no problem with it!

    heck yea its ok!! I had two baby showers each from both families...and with this one they said they will throw it again. I'm just very blessed with loving supportive family. :)

    My son just turned 1 & over the summer I got rid of all his stuff because we were planning on waiting a few years til we had another one but God had other plans for us so I could use all the help I can get so I'm planning on having one. As long as your comfortable with it that's all that matters. If anyone feels that you shouldn't then they can just stay home. You're not forcing anyone to buy you anything or to show up.

    If you don't need the big things like swing, crib etc, call it a baby sprinkle, not shower. I just threw a surprise one for my SIS in law, and it went wonderful.

  • angie87angie87
