Is it "tacky" to have a second baby shower for someone?

No, it's not tacky; No, the timing is NOT too close; No, it's not wrong in any way.

People celebrate their birthdays every single year - why not celebrate the arrival of each new baby (especially when the first baby came 3 years ago!!)

A baby shower is meant to shower mom and baby with love and gifts as a way to say, "Welcome, baby!!" It's a celebration. No matter how many children you have, a baby is to be celebrated. It's not just about the "stuff".

When I was pregnant with my daughter, I had three showers because both sides of the families plus my coworkers wanted to celebrate her arrival. I didn't plan any of them (the work one was a surprise!). I personally think every baby should be celebrated with a shower, even if it's a small shower. If you already have certain items from your first child that you don't need, you can certainly let people know that.

I personally don't think it's tacky. You will probably get a lot of responses on YA saying that it's tacky. I never even thought this was considered rude until I found this site. If someone is wanting to throw you a second baby shower I see absolutely nothing wrong with it. In my family we always throw everyone a baby shower regardless of how many kids we have. It's a way to celebrate a new addition to the family and for all of us girls' to get together and have fun.

The way I see it is that a baby shower is ok for each child, its suppose to be a celebration for the arrival of a new life. My friend has a 1 yo girl and is having another girl she had another baby shower but she mostly just got diapers. Its def not tacky. I had a baby shower for both of my kids. I kno a girl who had babies back to back after talking crap about some one who had babies back to back also and she had baby showers for both then this girl had the balls to go and have another baby shower but called it a diaper shower LOL Oh well anyways. no its not tacky :)

No second baby shower. The timing is too close. If you want to have a "sprinkle," say if the pregnant person threw out all of the baby stuff, then maybe just have a few friends and family, nothing over 10 people.

i think that as long as they are different sex or if it has been awhile since the first was born, like 5 years difference then that would ok just to update the clothes. my son and daughter are 20 months apart and i had a shower with both. i think my mother in law is going to have another shower for me which this one will be 20 months younger but all i would need is diapers and wipes so id say go ahead and have one!

I had a second shower but my oldest is 9 and a boy and I had my little girl 16 weeks ago. Although I know others who have children closer together and same sex that do. To each their own I think, and if it is just family and close friends I don't think it would matter.

I never had a shower with my first... I really hope someone will throw me a shower for my second! I don't think its tacky.... especially since it is a boy this time around.

Normally a baby shower is for when you're having your first baby. It really doesn't matter because a baby shower is to welcome the baby and to help the mother get prepared with all she needs for the baby. I personally wouldn't have a second baby shower, it to me sounds selfish.

I never did have a baby shower with my daughter since there was so much going on. I do plan on having my first baby shower when I am pregnant with my second.

I don't think two showers for two different sex is tacky...

Having a shower (where people bring gifts and money) for each baby of the same sex... now I think that's tacky!

IT is proper to have a baby shower for each baby. I've known women to have multiple baby showers for one baby.
