asked to cohost a baby shower for baby 2

My friend asked me if I would want to throw something for our pregnant friend for her second childtobe. I told her we could maybe host something small but not have people bring gifts. Her first is only 18 months old, so I think it's even more to ask people to attend another shower. I told her we could possibly have just a little tea party where they can just chat and maybe decorate their own one sites for future baby. Thoughts?

  • I think this is perfect. You're celebrating the mother-to-be and giving her some relaxation, which she needs more than gifts.

    If it turns out LO #2 is a different sex than #1, you could do a sprinkle for clothing but it isn't necessary.

    I love this idea and would phrase it in a way that shows it's all about the mom.  Like:

    "Melissa's last hurrah!

    With number 2 on the way,

    Melissa will have even less time to play!

    So let's spend some time and drink some tea,

    share some good gossip, and prop up our feet. 

    We'll toast to Melissa and give her a break,

    since raising 2 kids will be no piece of cake!"

  • I would do a tea or a lunch with close friends. I do think every baby should be celebrated but I don't think every pregnancy needs a registry and a blow out party.

    Very cute! Thanks for the input, ladies!

    Sorry for any spelling and grammatical errors. I'm not usually doing this fromy phone. I see why there are complaints regarding the mobile version...
