Baby Shower for a Second Baby?

JUST CURIOUS to what others think about the topic. We are currently TTC our second child. We have a 17mo old little girl and I've saved all of her clothes and such just in case we have another girl the 2nd time around. (Although we'd love a boy, one of each!) I'm assuming that if we have another girl, then a baby shower is not really necessary since I wouldn't really need clothes and we'd probably end up buying the bigger items ourselves anyway and reuse a lot of the toys/equipment.

We got his bath ready that...

Painful Intercourse After Vaginal Delivery

I delivered my daughter last September and 4-1/2 months later it is still very painful to have sex. Has anyone else experienced this before? I think I read online that especially if you are breastfeeding (which I am), your estrogen levels are very low and this thins out the lining of the vaginal wall and therefore makes it uncomfortable during sex. My doctor says it is normal...even with lubrication it still hurts. I'm just wondering how many other women this actually affects?!
