Well, the point of a baby shower is to celebrate a new life and make sure mom and baby are all set up and ready.
Lots of ppl do Baby Sprinkles now, which is literally just a baby shower for the not 1st babies. Since that seems to offend some ppl.

I think it’s called a “sprinkle” instead of a baby shower for the same sex

Its called a sprinkle.
I think it’s a little extreme, if I’m honest. Especially if you have another child so close in age and the same gender. Seems a little excessive and may come across as a little greedy. A shower is there to help you and support you with your baby but what else could you possibly need if you just had one recently?

You can do a sprinkle and ask for diapers, and if you formula feed, cans of formula! Those are really the most expensive and things you run out and will need more often!

No! If they don’t want to participate, that’s on them.

My daughter was 16 months when we had a “gender reveal” party for my second (who came 3 months later) and since we knew we were having another girl we asked for people to bring diapers and wipes and if they were so inclined to get us gifts - either gender neutral, gift cards, or money. We wanted to surprise our loved ones.
I had a shower for my son then had two girls and never had a shower for either … My family sucks. If not for pregnancy centers and resources i woulda been screwed. If you can celebrate baby go for it. Those offended just dont have to come.

I had one for all 3 of my boys
I have 4 kids and had a baby shower for all 4 and im having our 5th baby and will have another one but I like to have a “Stock the freezer/pantry” as my babyshower each guest brings gift cards for food or the make meals for you to freeze or buy groceries(: it was the best one yet
I would say since you already have 1 girl the most needed and expensive things needed would be diapers wipes and formula (if u use it). So I would have a diaper wipes and formula Party. If baby is already here we do a meet and greet and just do a diapers wipes and formula meet and greet 
No. Every baby should have a shower
I had a small baby shower for my first daughter and nothing for my 2nd. My family (esp my grandma) is a firm believer in baby showers for first time mom’s only. They believe if you have one for every child plus gender reveals it’s like begging or taking advantage. In hindsight I would have liked a baby sprinkling? But no biggie.
I personally think it’s tacky. A diaper shower would be more appropriate

Do what makes you happy.
No, new baby new stuff and new celebration!!
My sister had a “sprinkle” for my daughter… my son is 8 years older and she insisted… I think it’s in bad taste for another one so close in age of the same gender…

A sprinkle shower is technically more appropriate but to each their own. I’ve seen some have showers for all their kids.
No offense why do you need another baby shower. Especially when your youngest is so young.

Traditionally baby showers are for friends to help welcome a new baby i see nothing wrong with doing it.your good friends and family want to buy things for your child.they always have a choice to not accept the invitation if they dont agree.

Absolutely not go for it, just say on the invite strictly no gifts bring a plate of food instead.
I would say yes. Unless it has been a significant amount of time between babies or the opposite gender it seems greedy to expect more gifts…

You should participate in whatever you friends your friends do for you.
I has a meet the baby party. Wasnt much in a mood for a party party when I was pregnant. Plus family at the time was all fighting
At that point it’s called a sprinkle.

Nope. I’m having a baby “sprinkle” in a month for kid #3, boy #2. Every baby deserves to be celebrated. Gifts are not expected, I just want family/friends to come celebrate

I personally think every baby should be celebrated. But maybe do a “sprinkle” instead of a big shower.
Just dont expect a ton of gifts, and use the handmidowns from your other child. Just say diapers only. Thatll help but not be too much to ask for. I had a diaper raffle. And I bought a beautiful tapestry to give to the winner
Not trying to come off inconsiderate, but is this really a question? I get some say since it’s the same gender that it is just being “greedy” or what not, but idgaf what gender the baby is…its a baby…new life coming into the world. Definitely should celebrate that. I do have 2 kids n 1 is a girl (now 14) n 1 is a boy (8mths on the 10th) so I did have 2 showers, but even if I had another girl, I would be still having another shower. Not because of the huge age gap in my case, but because it’s still another life whether planned or not. Celebrate life n have another shower. Ur 2 girls might wind up w totally different tastes and 15 mths stuff isnt g2fit a newborn. So I say go for it
I have 4 daughters. I had 4 baby showers. Granted they are 4 years apart. If I didn’t need specific things for my next child, friends and family would give clothes and diapers and such. Every child deserves to be celebrated
Same people might be sick of it
If you have what you need you could put on your invitation that no gifts needed diapers and wipes appreciated … those cant exactly be reused… I had 2 showers for boys who are 54 weeks apart
Leave that up to friends
If they want to give you a shower that is GREAT, if not, DO NOT GIVE ONE FOR YOURSELF! That is WRONG to expect others to come bring you things!!
Are you thinking a baby shower put on yourself? Mine was a surprise baby shower. My first baby. Do your friends want to put on a baby shower? Some new clothes for a baby is kinda nice ya know. Diapers and wipes always are welcome. Later she can wear older sisters clothes. How far along are you? Your youngest is 15 months so how old when you are due? Congrats!
