    Im from NJ/NY area and i am not having a sprinkle. Before i found out the sex, i absolutely told ppl no shower or sprinkle. Just tacky. We had a reveal with no gifts. Im re-using everything. Yes the babies are the same sex but I said no shower before that. I planned to re-use everything and buy/borrow some pink stuff. Obviously it's your life and I rarely say anything argumentative on here but you did drag the NJ/NY thing in here. We arent all tacky.

    I can't reuse anything everything I have my son will continue to use a while or is 100% masculine
    Who cares if its masculine? My boy used a pink butterfly bouncer because a friend let me borrow it and I didn't have pay for it.

    Well that's your choice wasn't it! I'll buy my daughter as many pink chairs as I damn well please and u can kiss my behind if u don't like it

    And this, FTMs, is why you register for gender neutral big ticket items...

    I wasn't supposed to be able to have kids for medical reasons even after the first they said I wouldn't. So I thought id have a boy and that's it. Now I have two miracles and my parents and in laws and aunts all want to celebrate. It's only immediate family 15 people at a house.


  • Why on earth would you need a second changing table? Can you not use the same one? Or a bed or the couch?
    Holy judgemental! I'm not using a couch! It's something my aunt wants to get because my sons is attached to his furniture And she asked if I could pick one for her to buy me. U want to know more details or is that ok???? I'm sorry your highness I will include my life story in my next forum thread if I don't delete.

    Physically? 

    How can a not even 10 month old be attached to furniture? What am I missing?

    This is so off subject but I am on the hunt for such things (considering having a second within a couple years) and so far only been able to find a neutral bassinet :-?? Almost all the lil bathtubs are even pink or blue.. Frustrating. Thinkin I need to dig deeper online

    If this baby had been a girl, she was going to be wearing. Blue onesies to sleep in with cars and buses on, she wouldn't have known.
    I don't get your way of thinking it baffles me that you got pregnant so quick and seem to expect other people to provide for it.

    First of all I don't expect anything, due to dome serious medical conditions I am super high risk and wasn't even supposed to have OnE kid so the fact that I even got pregnant again when doctors said I would to be able to makes my family so happy and they are generous and they do want to do a lot for me given that we all thought I would never have kids. Need I explain more? I don't expect anything but my mom figured if people want to do something nice she will make up 15 invites for my aunts and cousins and order some good and have a nice family event at the house. Sorry this disappoints you. Jerk.
  • Lolol attached to his furniture. I say just let people give you gifts if they're so inclined-not do a ridiculous two showers in one year.

    I have read all the comments. There is nothing wrong with family wanting to celebrate a new life that is about to begin. Does it really matter how close or far apart siblings ages tend to be? Would that make u love any less... Everything happens for a reason and some of the most blessed things aren't planned into a schedule ; ). Let the haters hate....u go girl!

    Thanks for that. Good to know there are some nice ones out there :)
    These people actually made me cry. I'm going to delete my account. I'm sorry i joined here. I posted my first thread hoping for ideas and I got tackled.

    I should add that I'm not against reusing things of the "wrong" color. Gotta do what ya gotta do.

    Bingo?
    Go to hell. Hope your kids don't turn out anything like u. My family is thrilled I am having a second miracle baby. Not everyone is easily able to. I've been trying for over ten years and I got one miracle and then another one right after! Doctors said I absolutely would not ever get pregnant. So Is that such an aweful thing for my family to be thrilled now that I got my miracle babies? My aunts want to buy everything I need because I'm in a great financial bind with a husband about to lose his job as well as myself. Sorry my situation doesn't meet your expectations of perfect. But I consider myself lucky to have a very large family that cares.

    HA!  I love the asterisk AND the y.  So, so good.

  • I think people mostly have the shower and quick baby thing covered.  I'd just like to add that just because you are Irish and don't find the term Irish Twin offensive doesn't mean that it isn't offensive.  Some Black people don't find the n-word offensive.  Some people of Roma descent don't find the term "gypped" to be offensive.  Same with "jew down" and "indian giver."  


    I'm not super offended by the Irish Twin thing, I just think it's probably not the best/classiest thing to write on an invitation.  
    Ok thanks
  • BankerBSN said:

    I am sure your OB loves the fact you are "super high risk" and got pregnant again at 6 weeks.

    eTA: and being "super high risk" the last thing I would be concerned about is the wording for the sprinkle invitations.

    I'm trying to help my mom plan, excuse me!

    If you are in the bind maybe you ask that the money be saved and spent directly on the baby and LO instead of shower related items.

  • @AJIrishMama I pretty much want to quote everything you're saying! My husband is also Hispanic and his family looked at me like I had 3 heads last week when I told them I didn't want a shower. They said "Girl, in our culture we shower for EVERYTHING!" I politely informed them my sons will be 2 years apart and we bought everything sex neutral and I don't need anything but winter clothes and diapers which they are more than welcome to bring when they come visit the baby after he's born.

    Second showers or "sprinkles" are tacky to me no matter what sex and how far apart they are, especially within a year!

    @agsgrrl‌ - I didn't care so much about the bathtub being blue regardless of sex. But the swing, bassinet, bouncer, crib bedding, car seat and all other reusable equipment were easy enough to find in gender neutral creams, browns, greens and yellows. Keep digging :)

    At least I know it is out there! We find out the sex next Friday so I thought I would try to start my registry to help pass time and the bathtub thing made me give up haha. And when it is important color won't matter, my friend was told at her a/s four years ago that her daughter was a boy and I was the first non family to show up with my "it's a boy!" balloon to have my jaw hit the floor! Needless to say she wore a lot of blue :) .....and she's just fine ;)
