Is it ok to have more than one baby shower?

I think it's fine. A friend of mine had 3 bridal showers - her co-workers threw her a surprise party, she had her big shower a couple of weeks before the wedding, then she had another, informal one, when her family arrived from out of town.

Etiquette dictates you can have as many showers as you want, as long as any guests invited to more than one understand they only need to give you one gift (and you should acknowledge that they've already given you a gift in case other guests think they haven't brought anything).

I had 2 separate showers. My mother and my mother-in-law threw me one apiece. The families did not know each other very well and they both had a whole lot of people they wanted to invite so I had 2 baby showers with my first baby. Both came to the other one's shower, also. I do not think it os unethical or tacky. People love you, so accept it and have fun!! :)

I would say it's fine,the friends don't even know one another. I don't see an issue,your friends apparently care enough to give you not one shower,but two! I say go for it,how is it unethical? Two totally groups of people,not like one's saying "oh im doing it" then another is saying "oh im doing it too" from the same group of friends. If that was happening,THAT would be tacky.

It's 2 different groups of people, I say go for it. That way, neither one is offended for not being invited to the other shower, or offended for not being allowed to throw the shower. Since you show so much concern, it's obviously not because you are greedy...so I say it should be okay.

Girl if your friends want to through you a baby shower let them. when I had the baby I had over a hundred people at my baby shower and I got everything I needed.

Just let both friends know about each other and what they are planing maybe they can get together and plan a big party.

i think it's great that 2 people offered to give you a baby shower. i was given 2 different baby showers, 2 totally different groups of people they wouldn't have felt comfortable @ the same shower. good luck

some human beings have 2 infant showers say if some kin lives on the threshold of you and a few stay distant. in the adventure that your having twins maximum folk merely have one infant bathe for the two babys.

you should accept both offers. they are your friends that love you and want to do something special for you and just think about it. you will have more than enough baby stuff to last you awhile. this is your time so let them take care of you. you are going to be so busy taking care of someone else from now on, let someone do something nice for you and have a nice time.

I had this problem too. I had my work friends and my out of work friends... and they were not the mixing type. I told my work friends the situation and they were ok with it. I had the out of work shower and then much to my surprise my work friends threw me an at work one. I say explain the situation to both friends and say you're at a loss at how to handle this gracefully. If they are good friends to you they will work something out.

No, I think it's pretty normal to have two if they're a different group of people.
