Hey everyone just wonder what the go is with having a baby shower for your second? I had one for my first with a gift registry. I have everything & don't want one for presents but moreso for the fact that I feel bad if I dont for the child as my first has an album full of babyshower pics. Am I being silly? Also if I do have one it would be something small. also, id feel bad bc I dont want ppl to think im doing it to get presents.
All opinions welcome :)

A couple of ideas, don't tell people it's a shower but invite people for afternoon tea or similar but when they get there it will be decorated for a baby shower. Or invite people for baby shower but say no gifts thank you on the invitation. If people want to give you something you could suggest a donation to a maternity type charity on your behalf.
I think your over thinking it all! Just have a baby shower! It's a great way for people in your life to get together and celebrate a new baby that's coming.
Play some games, have some food and have fun!
No baby shower for 2nd bubs if kids are close together... Go and have a nice morning tea somewhere special before bubs arrives to catch up then if people want to give you presents they can if they want to but your not making them feel they have too
