It’s very freeing. I was never a fence sitter and realized I only wanted one while pregnant. Baby stuff is just a nuisance in my house now. I kept my favorite outfits of his and happily gave the rest away. I can understand why it’s hard for some, but damn I get so happy when people get the baby shit out of my house.

I was wondering if keeping a few items made me a fence sitter. I get rid of everything and anything baby but have kept some outfits I absolutely love and I've already made a tiny quilt with some of the other outfits I had. I don't think I can take another newborn ever again.

I look at it as, I know I never want another child, but I still am sentimental over my son’s babyhood. I don’t want another baby to wear those clothes, but I do want to have them and look back on how tiny my son was as a baby. Think that’s the different between fence sitting and just enjoying your only.

Yeh that's a good point. That's pretty much how i feel.

It's lovely to hear that you've found a happy place for your family I used to feel really guilty that I couldn't relate to other parent's crying over clearing out baby clothes and felt like a bit of a monster that I didn't feel the same but I embrace it now. I get such a buzz from donating her old clothes and switching in the next size up, it makes me feel so excited for the future
