hi my question is im pregnant with my second baby on the way. And without even thinking about it my sister asked me will you be having a baby shower for this baby. I said i didn't really think about it do you have a baby shower for your second baby is it rude to have it for the second pregnancy. Whats people think should you or should you not have a baby shower the second time im confused i would not mind having one again but would people think your rude asking them to come again. Im confused and am very unsure. Please help.

Go for it! Why not! From someone who didn't even get one baby shower enjoy! lol

I don't think its rude - its a part of pregnancy (not that I had one but thats a whole other thread hehe). I say go ahead and enjoy

I think that it's a celebration of your baby! go for it!

I think if I had had a second baby shower I would have written that I wanted to catch up and celebrate this pregnancy with my friends too, but that I didn't expect to be showered in gifts this time around. Some people might bring a gift anyway. If someone else is organising it for you, they can always suggest that people might want to contribute towards something you might need for a second child, like a pram attachment or something.

I'm thinking of organising a baby shower for my number 2, only because I "shared" my first experience with my sister, and it became all about her. It was horrible. So this time, I'm going to have an afternoon tea party but just as a nice way of getting all my lovely gf's around for a few hours, but will be saying no presents, just "presence". Bizarrely enough, my sister is also pregnant with her 2nd, we're due about 4 days apart, but I'm not sharing this time , probably won't even mention it to her.

I didn't with DD2 just because I ran out of time and couldn't be bothered but I say go for it.
