What do you do with clothes your baby outgrows? email this discussion to a friend?

I just went through a few boxes of clothes that my son wore when he was a baby, and I brought them to a consignment shop to be resold. A lot of them were given to me, and some I gave to a friend who has a baby, but she has a girl, so most she couldn't use. It was hard to part with a lot of them- I did keep some, like the outfit he wore home from the hospital, and his first christmas outfit.

What do you do? Give them away, sell them, keep them?

I plan on having another kid in a few years, so I keep the clothes. If it turns out to be a girl next, I will donate all of the specifically boy clothes to the Goodwill (that is where most of them came from, anyways) or give them to someone who has a kid. Maybe have a yard sale and sell some of the things.

I either sell them or donate them. Some of the clothes are perfectly fine, but not nice enough for a consignment shop or eBay. Those that are not nice enough, but perfectly useful get donated.

I kept the outfits my kids came home from the hospital on so I can give them to them when they are older otherwise I take all the clothes they outgrow to our local consignment shop and use the money I make off of them to buy them new clothes works out really good.

I been organizing out my closets finding my 3 yr old son baby clothes which I was going to give to my brother when he has kids but he hasn't had any and I needed more room in our closet so I gave them to some of my friends and they took them to salvation army.

I haven't been able to part with my daughter's baby clothes yet. Part of me hopes that I'll have another girl and part of me just can't let go of those days in her life. I think eventually I'll probably sell her clothes when I know for sure I won't have any more kids. But it probably won't be until she is 25 though. Maybe by then I'll be able to let go.

I gave all of Marcus clothes size 0 to about 9 months when we moved. We donated all of our stuff to St Vincent de Paul so they could find people who needed it. Since then I have put the stuff that is in really good condition in a box and stored it in the closet for our next baby. There is a hope in me that we have a baby girl and won't need it. Of course I am not pregnant so I am probably thinking about it way too much. But it is something I have been wanting lately...

Anyway, I am not one to sell them. I would rather keep them and give them away to a friend or family member eventually, or give them to a charity that will find people who could use them. I was given so many things and it was such a blessing, I love blessing others...

I kept most of my first child's stuff because I knew we wanted another child. Most of my second child's clothes that I like, I have kept them to pass it on to my sister when she has her baby...some I have given to my neighbour who had her baby 4 months after I did...and some I have given to the household help.
My mother kept my sister's crib and baby blanket all these years and handed them to me when I had my first child. My younger son also used them and it's all in good condition and will most probably be given to my sister when she has her baby.

I keep the out fit they come home from and the rest I give to others that I know are having a baby. Or maybe a friend knows a friend kind of thing. But now I have a girl and I don't know anyone who is going to have a girl so I might just donate them to a local group.
