So idk if I’m an asshole for thinking this but a girl I used to go to school with is having her 3rd kid and she’s planning a baby shower and she had one with her other two. I feel like a baby shower is something you do with ur first pregnancy. I live far from my family so I didn’t have one but i did have a baby registry and I’m not even doing that with this pregnancy. Idk I just feel like 3 baby showers is a lot! Especially when she gets things handed to her. Idk maybe I’m an ass for thinking that

I agree with you. I don’t have a problem with celebrating another baby but having a shower where you expect more presents is a little crazy. Realistically you should have every thing you need at this point so why not have a diaper shower instead? I wouldn’t expect anyone to give me three separate presents just because I’m having another baby.
I don't see nothing wrong with it. Every baby should be celebrated.
Celebrated yes but asking for mass amounts of gifts and having a registry is a little much
@courtney017 probably so I never did registry I don't follow them when I buy shower gifts either
I had a baby shower for all 4 of my kids but we never ask for gifts it's just basically food and cake to celebrate I guess it's more like a get together lol
See that’s totally different! This girl has a long ass list of things she wants
I get what you mean because I know a girl who has a baby literally every year and throws a huge baby shower each time. I understand wanting to celebrate each baby which I definitely agree with but asking for lots of gifts each time is like taking advantage of friends and family. I’m not saying small little gifts like bottles and diapers. This girl registry be full of expensive stuff strollers, car seats, cribs, expensive brands of clothes. I think if you want to have multiple showers you shouldn’t expect expensive items people have already bought you less than a year ago... I just don’t go when she invites me but it doesn’t bother me lol if her friends and family want to buy her those things every year that’s up to them.
Exactly!! Which is what I’m trying to say but everyone wants to take everything out of context. If she wants to ask for things then make a registry but she’s literally throwing a baby shower and paying for a venue and buying food and drinks like why not spend that on ur child instead of throwing yourself a baby shower? She has a registry and is throwing a baby shower asking for diapers and stuff. Like all that money ur spending on the baby shower could be used for the things you are asking for. She asks for baby formula to even after she has her kids.
@courtney017, I get what you mean girl. Anytime someone doesn’t agree with something everyone always thinks they’re hating lol.
@alicianoelle, and now they are salty I deleted their comments lol
@makeupmomplustwo_, i deleted comments that had ride replies
@mom.uncensored, there’s no excuse to leaving a child alone in a car 🤦🏻♀️ people try to justify everything
I know ppl who have them, even if they're the same gender and close in age. I personally didn't have a 2nd one but I did get like 90 gifts from my church family & hubby's family/my family, which was so nice♡♡
Gifts are a totally different thing lol but having a full blown baby shower especially when no one came to ur second is kinda weird in my opinion
I had a friend who got pregnant with another boy when her son was like nine months and she had another baby shower which I mean was whatever. But what bugged me was that in her registry she had all this stuff for her son and the baby. And basically wrote not to show up to her baby shower if you hadn't brought two gifts for each kid 🤷🏽♀️
And of course she included a lot of items that she already had from her other baby but quote she couldn't use that because her son had used it...
@courtney017, her oldest daughter is 2 and her youngest daughter is 1
That's so crazy!! I'm not even doing a shower. This is my first and she's the first grandbaby ever for my parents. We are doing a registry because we do have a lot of family from out of state but we still don't even expect anything for our first. Other than clothes and her infant carseat/stroller all our big baby items are gender neutral. That way I can save the pack n play, bouncer, rock n play, swing, etc. I didn't want to have to worry about those things twice. Anything I can store and keep we are.
@madhatter, now I’m being called jealous and getting rude ass replies from some of these moms 🙄
I think it depends on how close in age and gender ? If she has all the same gender and they 9 months apart lol then that’s a lol excessive lol 😂
All her kids are like 10-12 months apart
I think it depends on how close the kids are and are they the same gender?
My girls were 4 years apart so I started completely over. I had already gave all her baby stuff away. I personally don't like hoarding stuff so 🤷
They are only like 10 months apart
If she can afford it that's great I didnt want a baby y shower for my 1st one but a friend invited all my friends and didnt deliver so I had to take over that's how it happened and the second baby my church surprised me I did enjoy some of the gifts they really helped me and I am thankful I was able to get baby showers and celebrate my children before they where born:)
@verguinia, it really doesn’t. Like use that money for the things you need
@courtney017 I did that actually I got a stroller and bed and mattress
I agree with you. I don’t have a problem with celebrating another baby but having a shower where you expect more presents is a little crazy.

No that sounds a little ridiculous. Especially it being her 3rd unless it was a different gender. I had 2 showers but that’s only because I had a girl and then a boy 2 yrs later (and honestly didn’t even want a shower lol).
It’s a boy this time but she’s already gone and gotten stuff for him and her family has already gifted her a bunch of stuff
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
