Moms who plan on having more kids... What are you saving for your next baby?

Am I crazy for saving EVERYTHING that my DD is outgrowing for our future baby #2? I havent thrown a single thing out and im running out of storage space. Is there anything thats not reccomended to be reused?

We have been saving everything from Jacob. When the time comes, we will go through everything and see what we really want to keep.

Everything that is in good condition. It would be a waste to throw out good stuff.

Saving EVERYTHING. It's just too good to get rid of only to maybe have to buy all over again.

I've saved everything except some clothes that were gitts and not really "me". I do plan to weed out some toys because we have too many and need to space to make DS playroom his "big boy" room.

I might get BP free bottles, but that's about all.

Re: Moms who plan on having more kids... What are you saving for your next baby?

I am saving all of her clothes and also purposely registered/bought neutral big ticket items [PNP, carseat, swing, bassinet, etc.] so we could reuse them for #2. DH has 3 kids from his 1st marriage so money is tight. No matter if baby #2 is a boy or a girl, it would be a blessing... but a second girl for us would definitely help out our wallets!! Chat Icon

Keeping almost everything-- clothes, toys, equipment, etc...Most of her clothes are stain-free, same with toys, so I'm definitely saving them.

I'll get new bottles for baby #2 when the time comes, and carseats-- just want the newest technology for carseats.

Re: Moms who plan on having more kids... What are you saving for your next baby?

I saved bassinett, pack and play (hardly used), swing, will save crib, about 3/4 of all clothes from newborn - 12 months. High chair I hated and am selling, stroller I reuined by leaving it outside, older clothes I didn't save except special occassion, and toys I gave some to a friend and most I still have. I like to shop for babies so I am sure IF I ever had another then I would buy a lot of new stuff.

Re: Moms who plan on having more kids... What are you saving for your next baby?

We are saving everything. She hardly wore half of her clothing and I'll use it if we have another Chat Icon or hopefully a friend will have a Chat Icon so they can use it.

All the big items like the exersaucer, swing, strollers... I bought them gender neutral in hopes to use them again with our next child, I see no reason to purchase all those items again if the ones have are in great condition.

I'll only throw out the bottles, pacifiers, mouth/chew toys.. that kind of stuff.

Re: Moms who plan on having more kids... What are you saving for your next baby?

I saved everything too. My kids are going to end up being close together, 16 months apart. If I end up having a girl this time around I will go through all the clothes and get rid of 95% of it. I am getting some new towels, because DS really used them. And I am planning on getting some new bottles, but hopefully will be breastfeeding in the beginning.
