We are definitely done having babies. Trying to decide what to do with my maternity wear... Hold onto it to give to future potential friend, giving to local charity, try to sell...? What did you do?
-
I sold some here, gave some away to family/friends.
-
Sold some and donated some.
-
I'm planning to sell what I can and then let my friends borrow the rest.
-
I sold the work clothes because I didn't go back to work. This time I'll probably sell my jackets and nicer winter items once I'm through with them, but being pregnant while parenting two preschoolers has left most of my shirts with light stains or faded from excessive washing to remove said stains, so I'll either offer those up on a local listserv for layering/around the house clothes, or give them to textile recycling.
-
Btw what size are you/your maternity clothes? If you're 8/M I might be interested in taking some maternity pieces off your hands
-
@Mrs. Pen: most are 4s.
-
I donated a bunch to a local charity for women and children that always needs maternity clothing and also have a bunch to friends. I think I'll to the same this time around. I'll keep a few things until a am totally sure I am done.
-
I bought so little and really wore them a lot and it showed, so I just donated them to a clothing charity.
-
I wish I could give to friends/family but nobody around here is my size and also having kids right now (they seem to be either done or haven't started yet). I saved most of it from my last pregnancy but once this one is over, I plan to ship most of it to thredup and take whatever they will give me for them.
-
I'm keeping for baby #2 someday. After that I will sell to my consignment shop.
-
Will see if anyone needs it; if not I'll sell any "nicer" items and donate the rest.
-
@travellingbee: I was literally talking about this with my friend today! I too don't know what to do with my stuff! I have some nice clothing that I could sell, but don't know where. I also have friends that are pregnant with #2 but they are different sizes. I think I'll try to sell to consignment shops or donate.
@Mrs. Pen: I have some nice Pea in the Pod, Loft, and Gap shirts and dresses (size med). We should chat!
-
@Alba4: feel free to wall me what you have and prices! I'm interested
-
With maternity clothes, I'd sell or donate.
Baby clothes, I would save and give to a friend.
-
Gave to pregnant friend.
-
I'm holding on to mine in case we have baby # 2. So after wearing them for two pregnancies I will probably donate them to charity unless I have a local friend that could use them.
-
Most will go to my sister. She borrowed them once already! Anything she doesn't want I'll probably consign with option to donate at the end of the sale.
-
@fancyfunction: same for me. I sold the few nice items and donated the rest.
-
I'll try to sell the jeans and dresses since they got minimal wear. Shirts will get donated.
-
I'm on my 2nd pregnancy, but will most likely sell on a facebook garage sale site.
For those looking for places to sell, I just stumbled on poshmark.com - a lot of higher end used clothes (and maternity), might be an option.
