Did you save them? Donate? Sell? Loan?
I'm planning on saving them, and loaning them out to friends who are similar in size to me!

I don't have much, less than ten pieces total! I saved it.

I saved them and passed them down to a friend. She returned them when I got pregnant with #2.

Saved them for #2 - I guess I'll loan them to my sister if she needs them first!

Saving for #2, after which I'll give away what's still in good shape and toss the rest.

Uhh...currently, my answer would be "wore them." I'm still wearing some maternity things because they fit better than my regular clothes, but I also picked specific non-maternity looking pieces to ensure I could wear them after I was no longer preggo.

Saving most it (didn't buy too much). Thinking of passing some of the non-maternity, but cheap, trendy pieces I bought in a size larger to my sister when she needs it.
IDK why I thought larger "normal" clothes meant I'd just wear them the same after baby.

I stored most of them (particularly those blasted jeans) but I still wear some of it--specifically yoga pants and long tanks.

After I'm done I'll save everything and if my friend gets pregnant again before I do, I'll send them (along with the stuff she's loaned me) back her way. She'd then give 'em back when/if I needed 'em.

@Mrs. Blue: @FutureMrsMcK: Good point, I added that as an option! I could see myself still wearing some of my maternity stuff for awhile, especially the comfy items.

I returned all the clothes I borrowed. This week, before I had a chance to find a spot for my clothes, I found out my friend is expecting. Yeah!! So she'll be getting my stuff.

We're still planning on having more so I saved them.

I've gotten a lot of hand me downs so I will return the favor. I'll return to my friend who is planning a second eventually, and if she gets pregnant with her #2 before I do, I'll loan her stuff. Otherwise I'll save or loan to a sister.

After my first, I saved everything. After my second I gave away the newest stuff to my friend and sold or donated everything else.

I saved them and used them much sooner than I expected!

I'm 31 weeks and a friend just found out she's pregnant. I kind of feel like I SHOULD offer to give her my stuff, since she'll start needing them probably just as I stop, but part of me wants to save them in case we decide to have a second.

I selected other because I did a variety of things. I threw out my jeans (they were cheap in the first place and easy to replace the next time I'm pregnant), I donated some, I also gave some to my SIL since she's currently ttc and the small leftover selection I kept. I didn't have alot of maternity clothes in the first place.

I saved most of them just in case we decide we want to try for another . . .

Loaned them to my BFF and were adding it to the pile. Five of us having babies this year!

I saved them because I knew that we were going to be trying for more children. plus, I was still wearing some of them! after LO gets here, i'm going to sell most, or give away.

My husband's cousin is currently wearing them. She'll give me anything back that's still useable.

I'm planning on saving mine for pregnancy #2 in the future. I only have two pairs of jeans and about 5 maternity shirts.
pomegranate / 3204 posts
I got rid of the stuff I didn't like and kept most of it for #2. Currently they are loaned out!

I lent a bunch to my sister, and saved the stuff that wouldn't fit her. She's trying to return the stuff I lent her to me, but I keep ignoring her - she has more room in her house to store it. Ha ha. One of us will reuse it in the future, I'm sure.

Right now my BFF has them, she's due anyday (YAY!) and one of my other BFFs just annoucned her surprise pregnancy (she's engaged so it was a shock) so I will pass them along to her. They will be back to me by the time we go for round 2! BFF said she's goign to throw in the pieces she bought so the other friend can have them and we will just keep rotating and adding pieces when needed, cuts the cost down a lot!

I'm on my first pregnancy now, but my sister saved hers for me and it's going to be a lifesaver! I plan on saving mine for friends or family who need some.

Saving mine for #2, and then shipping them off to friends once I'm finished with them!
