So, I'm Spring cleaning the hell out of our house preparing to move and I got all my maternity clothes together. I am debating whether to save them or get rid of them.
Most of my stuff was basics. I'm not a super trendy person, so I didnt buy anything like that.
Most of me wants to just get rid of it, but I'm not sure. We're not planning another baby for like another 2.5-3 years.

I would keep them... I put mine in one of those bags you vacuum the air out of. I hated shopping for maternity clothes so it will be nice to have a stash to dip into with hopeful #2.

Depends on how good of shape they are in! Mine, for example, are going straight to the trash bin/donate pile after this pregnancy because the pants I bought all ripped (pleaaase let the one last pair I have last for 5 more weeks!) and I didn't buy very many shirts. However, I *don't* plan on having any more kids so I didn't buy good quality stuff! If you did, buy all means, keep em!

Definitely keep if you're going to have another child...maternity clothes are soo expensive!

The only issue for me is that I plan to be smaller next time around, so I'm hoping none of it fits!

I'd definitely save if you are planning to have another. Or, if anyone close to you is pregnant, pass them to her and she can give them back when you have another.
Even if they are big on you, i feel like a lot mat clothes are very forgiving-- I usually wear a med, but I definitely have clothes that were handed down in small and large and they all fit fine-- so much stretch. Especially things like t shirts or tank tops you can just wear a bit looser.

I'd save them if you have quite a bit. If it's only a couple of things toss/donate them and restock in a couple of years!

I'd save the basic stuff like tees and jeans that don't really go out of style.

keep the basics! I kept mine, but will need to get rid of them since I'm on a weight loss journey.

I'm consigning mine this week...anything that doesn't sell I will keep. I am not planning on getting pregnant again for a few years and have no desire to move them to a new house. Plus most was from motherhood or old navy and was poor quality so I don't expect it to get me through another pregnancy.
