Second shower for twins

My cousin has a seven year old daughter, she had trouble getting pregnant the second time, did in-vitro and is now having twins. Everything she has is outdated and has been borrowed by other people. I want to throw her another shower, is this appropriate?

Our Answer:

Hi Lisa,

Thank you for your question. Absolutely! Your cousin should definitely get a baby shower. Not only does she have an older daughter, she is also having twins! Which means she is going to need double the support and double the supplies.

With the complications of getting pregnant, these babies deserve a celebration!You are totally within the bounds of baby shower etiquette to do so.

Good luck planning the baby shower!
