If the transition isn't made properly and every ones feelings aren't considered it can be hard on the first child. The attention given to a new baby can be overwhelming and can over shadow the older child. older siblings need to be involved as much as possible before and after baby is born...tell them its their baby and we love it and them. All the gifts and new stuff should be balanced with small gifts and thank you for helping presents for the older child. It can be done with no adverse affects at all.

What is the ettiquette for a baby shower for a second child?
Rachelle D
I'm pregnant with my second child and just found out it's a boy (my first is a girl). Do people have baby showers for children other than their first?
We don't need anything (or want to ask anyone for anything) and can afford to get what we need. I just know all my family and friends will get us something anyway so I thought it might be nice to get together and give them treats and whatnot. What do you think?

As I understand it, it is acceptable (according to "etiquette") for you to have a shower for your son since your first baby was a little girl :)
I have two boys and I wanted to celebrate the arrival of my second son as well...but seeing as I already had everything I needed for his arrival (and "etiquette" says no shower for same-gender baby number two) My sister hosted a "casserole" shower for me instead! It was a lot of fun and in the invitations she printed up a cute saying asking the guests to bring a freezable casserole instead of a gift :) It was a great idea!!
"What about showers for a second baby?
It is perfectly acceptable to host a shower for a second baby. After all, the parents will need a few new items. However, proper etiquette states that only family members and very close friends should be invited to the shower of a second child, although you can invite people who did not attend showers for the first child."
