baby shower maybe?

Does any one else having a second baby feel super stressed because their babies are say 5 years apart and people keep asking about a baby shower but at 7.5 months pregnant you your self haven't heard anything from anyone and are trying to decide what to buy but feel obligated to hold off on most stuff just in case some one wants to contribute that item. Also I don't want to seem greedy/ needy but I kinda could use a few gifts to help this one out but it feels tacky to host your own shower or even ask some one to but after 5 years not thinking we would be blessed with another it is hard to not hope for a tiny bit of help but to also want to get the few items you can afford to.
