I'm expecting our second, another girl. It hasn't been long since the first . I've had a handful of friends that are on a similar schedule to me who opted to have (low-key) baby showers for their second child. In those cases, I was close to them, and very happy to have a chance to get together and celebrate the new arrival.

Here's my question: what do you all think about showers for children beyond the first? I find that I'd sort of like to have an opportunity to gather with friends and family and celebrate the impending new life--more of a baby party than a shower. But, I'm really curious about where public opinion falls on this sort of thing these days.

Thanks for the in-put!
