| Take your money and go to a consignment baby shop for your used-but-clean-and-serviceable nursery furniture/clothes/etc.Once your closer friends and family know you are having a girl and that you are starting completely over, I'm sure they'll come forward to help out. |

| Back in the day as they would say a person would only have one baby shower for their first baby and it would be a small gathering of close women friends. Today that are sometimes large gatherings with male and female guests. Also people now have multiple showers for multiple children specially if the second child is a different sex than the first. Also even if the same sex some women are having kids 2-4-6 years apart and and would have showers cause they like you had gotten rid of most of their stuff. Go for it enjoy this birth as much as the first and let everyone celebrate. Baby shower is to celebrate the birth of a child so why not celebrate for every child. |

| Absolutely you should register. Make sure to include a wide range of prices.A personal message? I guess you could mention the sex of the baby and one or two things you really need (Boppy pillow, bottle warmer, whatever.) |

| Have a registry but only mention it to those who ask about it. Don't make anyone feel pressured to buy you another gift. And don't get rid of baby #2's stuff until you know there won't be baby #3. |
