Other-poll poll Is having a baby shower for each child okay to do? I am pregnant with my second child, and my older child is almost 6yo now so I do not have any of her old things anymore.

Its okay to have another baby shower for a second baby.
People should only have a shower for the first born and not additional babies.

Here is a quote from a Baby Shower Etiquette site --> `It is perfectly fine to have a shower for a second baby. After all, you are going to need a few new items. Of course, proper etiquette states that only very close friends and family members should be invited to the shower of a second child. You can also invite people who did not attend any showers for the first child.` The key is to not look greedy and having a second shower six years later does not appear greedy in the slightest -- unless, of course, you`re throwing it for yourself.

what a crock!!!who made a rule that you have to have your kids spaced out a certain amount in order to have a baby shower!!i have 5 children and the only one i didnt get a shower with was number 4!!if our family/friends want to do on then let them!!!besides as soon as my babies grow out of things i give them away!!so like you even though i am having my 5th i had nothing!!!!!i hate clutter and am constantly throwing/giving stuff away. the other thing to think is also a shower isnt just about the present it is about getting together with loved ones and celebrating the life of another child each one is just as special and worth celebrating...

I think another shower is ok if your children are more than 3 years apart. I had my first two kids 7 years apart and had a shower for both. Now I am expecting my 3rd (but these two will only be 2 years apart) and I do not plan on having another shower. My girlfriend did say she would throw me a `girl shower` if I finally have a girl this time though. Not for anything important, just cause she wants to buy me some pink! :P

its ok to have another baby shower only because your children are so far apart. But i would only have a small shower with few close friends and family.
