Do you think a woman should be given a baby shower for each baby, or only the first one? Why?

If she wants one for each baby, why not? All babies are important and what you got for one might not be suitable for the next. I had two girls, but they were born at different times of the year and were different size anyway. And what if you have a boy then a girl?

I am invited to a baby shower for someone I just say hello to, barely know and she has 3 kids already. I came home today and the invitation was in my door. You can't hand it to me or put a stamp on it and mail it.. how classy.

Traditionally, you only got one shower but now a days some people get two or three for each kid. I think that if the babies are born far apart then it's ok to have another one. I know I don't have anything left from my son. He's 5 and if I have another kid then I'd have to buy everything new. Also, if you have a boy first and a girl next then it would be nice to get girl stuff, you know.

One for each baby! Especially if the kids are different sexes. Baby showers are a way to congratulate a woman about to (or just had) have a baby and also help her out by giving her lots of presents for the baby. It's a great social event and also, it's always neat to see what new item have been invented for kids since the last shower you attended. I always have fun picking out presents for baby showers and if my friends had only one I would be sorely disappointed.

I think babies are too young to be showered. I think you should bath them, but don't forget to make sure the water isn't too hot.

Each pregnancy/adoption of a baby (well, two baby showers if pregnant w/ twins or a baby shower for adopting an 8-y-o is silly!), but yeah, I'd say you don't just have one. You'd still have things left over from your first, obviously, but the baby shower's about celebrating THAT baby, and chucking some cute things at the parents, not about giving necessary reusable baby gifts.
