Their LO was born yesterday at 6lbs 2oz, so I'd imagine they'll be in newborn for a while! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-nwt-baby-items-that-you-wont-use#post-1356846 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 13:45:29 +0000 Cchoi4 1356846@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>either re-gift (but add this on top of what the receiver asked for) OR I waited for my 2nd child to see if I could use. If not, then donate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-nwt-baby-items-that-you-wont-use#post-1356808 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 13:35:15 +0000 lilyann 1356808@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Depends on the item, but I would either re-gift, donate or ask my other mom friends if they needed/wanted it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-nwt-baby-items-that-you-wont-use#post-1356803 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 13:33:33 +0000 MsLipGloss 1356803@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I donated all of them! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-nwt-baby-items-that-you-wont-use#post-1356794 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 13:30:49 +0000 heffalump 1356794@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I regift. Even if the gifter is going to be there, I just say I loved mine so much that I went and bought another for that person. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-nwt-baby-items-that-you-wont-use#post-1356518 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 11:39:41 +0000 illumina 1356518@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would re-gift :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-nwt-baby-items-that-you-wont-use#post-1356515 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 11:39:10 +0000 cascademom 1356515@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Regift. We got some books from a family friend. We already have them. They're going to an expecting mom for her shower. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-nwt-baby-items-that-you-wont-use#post-1356511 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 11:37:26 +0000 prettylizy 1356511@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Re-gift! DD got a LP farm for Christmas but already has one. No reciept no price tag. It's in the closet waiting for our next birthday party invite :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-nwt-baby-items-that-you-wont-use#post-1356485 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 11:32:02 +0000 purrpletulips 1356485@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I gave them to others but let them know they were an unneeded gift that I received and therefore couldn't be returned. On some occasions I contacted the original gifter to find out where they got them and returned them without a receipt. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-nwt-baby-items-that-you-wont-use#post-1356409 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 11:08:58 +0000 MamaMoose 1356409@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a "re-gift" basket. We wouldn't ever give those things to family but if a co worker or neighbor or someone like that has a baby, we re-gift the things we never got to use. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-nwt-baby-items-that-you-wont-use#post-1356407 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 11:08:45 +0000 Greentea 1356407@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I donate them or pass them to other moms. Lots of moms having lo's at dh's job and they give me old gear so I try to pass it on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-nwt-baby-items-that-you-wont-use#post-1356405 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 11:07:24 +0000 Mamaof2 1356405@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually give them to my friends who can use them but I tell them "hey, I never got to use these and thought you could" that way they know they cant return them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-do-with-nwt-baby-items-that-you-wont-use#post-1356396 Fri, 17 Jan 2014 11:05:55 +0000 Foodnerd81 1356396@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>What do you do with baby items that still have their tags, packaging, but you won't use, either because baby outgrew them too fast, you got duplicates, etc? I have a handful of things like that-- nothing big enough that I'd really want to bother selling them, but big enough that it really annoys me to have them go to waste-- a couple of sleep gowns, an outfit, a pack of hooded towels. </p> <p>Is it poor form to give some as shower presents? I have a shower coming up and she registered for sleep gowns very similar to the ones I have, but she wouldn't be able to return these. What do you usually do? </p>
