[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Old school here.  Only showers for first babies—-unless a significany large gap between kids—like 10 years.[/quote]

But didn't you have luncheons with friends to celebrate #2? Even my grandma did that in the 1950s[/quote]
Yes, but it's a luncheon. It's not a gift grab and no gift is expected. It's a party thrown by a host where the guests just attend and ooh and ahh over the baby. If someone wants to bring a gift, fine. It's not a shower or sprinkle where the main event is opening and showing presents.

That's what sprinkles are supposed to be though.  Lunch with close friends and small, trinket level gifts.  [/quote]
The luncheon is not before the baby comes but after. That's what's different. Well, that and a gift expectation (even trinket level). We call it a luncheon or a "sip and see".[/quote]

Lol. Those are some pretty specific rules you have. Are you this rigid about everything?[/quote]
