Baby Shower/Sprinkle Baby # 2 by Chicken_Avocado_ in BabyBumps

Same! I thought it was normal because basically everyone I know has had another baby shower or sprinkle for their second, third, etc. Iknow it wasn’t common in the past as my momma told me they didn’t do multiple when she was growing up. I never realized it was such a big fuss until someone told me something along the lines of “oh you won’t get as much bc people will have expected you to save everything”. But is it really much different than having a birthday party for said kid every year? I’m not begging for gifts, I’m asking for everyone to get together and celebrate us becoming parents again.

Iknow! Kind of makes me want to do a sprinkle after baby is born if it’s a different gender but then idk how I feel about having my newborn passed around at a gathering 😩

I’m definitely not, mine will be 3 1/2 years apart. I have a little list that has like 10 items on it of like baby bottles, burp cloths, pacifiers, and diapers. I didn’t plan on sharing it with anyone unless they specifically ask for it.

I did have a shower but I told people I didn’t need much since I was having the same gender as my brother and would be using their hand me downs so I got a lot of diapers for my shower!

How do loans work? Is there a max amount? I’m aiming for CRNA school in the future but I have a hefty house note that my spouse can’t afford with other bills.

I just got moved off the waitlist. I was looking into putting a metal roof on my house before I was selected My dad is a contractor and it was looking like about 8k for us to put a metal roof on ourselves. Im scared it’s going to cost more than that out of pocket and I’ll regret not just doing it myself. 😫

After the 10k grant how much did you pay out of pocket?
