in Baby Showers

I've just been informed by close friends that I am being thrown a baby shower for my second little one.  My first shoewr was three years ago for my little girl and I
 never expected one for this baby boy.  I've been asked to make a guest list for them and I'm lost about who to invite.  This one will be smaller and a come and go thing, but I feel bad inviting some people a second time.  I just need some help on second shower etiquette!!!!!

    I agree. Any new friends are ok to invite, plus your mom and sisters. And, maybe a long time BFF that you know would be ok with it. I am of the camp that a Sprinkle is still a shower,  but maybe calling it a Sprinkle might make you feel less awkward?

    I would strongly suggest you NOT include registry info on the invites. 

    I like this, a lot. I think a long list of gift items/requests is what really makes second showers weird.

    I second this.
