I have been grappling with this as Harry is only 9 1/2 months but we alreay have soooo much stuff and we can't cope with it all (not enough space) but I am reticent to get rid as I hope we'll need it again. Needs must and we have had to part with a whole bunch of stuff as we just don't have the room and I know we'll get/buy more if/when we need it! Thanks for raising this as a discussion topic and encouraging more sharing/gifting/re-using. It is all part of recylcing and so worth it and worth the amazing feeling! This is great Christine.

Having just moved, I feel completely overwhelmed by kids stuff that my kids don't need anymore, and yet, I feel compelled to hang on to them in case we have a third. I will have to keep the spirit of this post in mind this weekend as we continue to organize our mounds of stuff! This is such a great thing to hear.

If it helps, though, take a peek at http://www.bostonmamas.com/2011/02/secondhand_baby_shower.html -- I had given away almost all of my baby things after several years of being open to pregnancy and it not happening... I finally came to terms with us being a family of three and of course I became pregnant a couple of months later. Of course! Anyway, I had a secondhand baby shower the second time around and received more than enough. And I can honestly say that thanks to the hand me downs I have spent $0 on baby things, aside from diapers, wipes, and snack puffs! Pretty incredible! Hi Tara, believe me, I totally get it!
