Today I am donating a bunch of our baby gear. It's bittersweet. Our youngest is nearly 11 months and we do not have plans for more children.
So I am trying to find comfort and get 'excited' for new found space in our basement.
Exersaucer
Infant bucket seat
Jolly jumper
2 green garbage bags full of toys
Bouncer chair
pack & play

I have been doing that over the past 6 months. Very bitter sweet. But the extra room is wonderful
Great job!

Aww, bittersweet. But great job!

We're still undecided about whether we're having a third, so it's tough right now because I don't know how much to keep for a possible future child. I wish we knew for sure!

I have been doing that. I figure if some day we do decide to have another I can get the 'essentials' pretty cheap. It helps that my friend is pg so I am decluttering to her.

I'm about to tackle baby gear and we aren't even done yet! There's so much stuff that is pitched as a necessity that really isn't. Baby swings, Walkers, bumbos. All- disappearing soon. Maybe even the exersaucer. Can't decide

I just took apart some of the bigger peices myself to wash and prep to sell. Some of this stuff I held on to for 4+ years waiting for a second child, so I can't wait to get rid of it and reclaim my storage space.

same here. as our daughter outgrows her baby stuff we have been getting rid of them. some of it was really hard to let go off. we had them since r oldest was born. (bassinet, walker, baby toys, ect...) now she is being swiched into a convertable carseat (foonf) & were donating her infant one. all we have left here for baby stuff is a few toys, jumparoo, 2 pk-n-plays, & 2 strollers. (one single & double) the next item to go is her jumparoo when she outgrows it. she has about 5lbs to go. loving the space but sad to see it go. :/
