My baby is turning 2 this October and I really don't think it's necessary to throw a huge birthday party. I'm thinking of a small gathering. Can you share your thoughts and experiences on this?

We threw a big party for our daughter's first birthday, but not for her second. I think you're making a wise decision, but you should discuss with your partner and family. It's a bit much to fork out money for a birthday that they won't truly remember. Yes, it;s super cute and precious, but you can go practical for the second birthday and save up for other parties in the future in my opinion
