GFCI in each of three bathrooms across two floors via line-line or only first in line via line-load?

As I replace old outlets in my 1980s home, which approach I should take with the three bathroom outlets (two upstairs and one downstairs) on the same circuit: One GFCI in each bathroom for convenience (using only line terminals), or simply replace the existing, nonworking GFCI outlet with a new one and feed the other two down the line with the load terminals (matching existing configuration)? I lean towards the first for convenience, as I'm replacing outlets anyway and it's only $30 more, but maybe this is overkill? What is more common these days?
