To answer this question, I was always taught that you can only get baptized once in your life, because it;s pretty much universal for all religions that have baptism.
For Catholic baptism, usually the whole family is there and they have a little ceremony with the godparents where they both send their blessings on the baby. Then both the mom and dad's side come up then they bless the baby. Finally the priest anoints the head of the baby with holy water and sends his blessings on the baby. Lots of stuff happens and it always seems really long to me.
Baptist I'm not sure what they actually do I looked it up and it just seems that they dip you in water and say a passage from the bible and they are done and move onto the next person. I'm not that sure.

For me both my parents and I are Catholics, though not practicing ones.
