hand-me-downs making me down
Hello! Pregnant with my first baby here! Idk about you guys but I feel like part of the fun of this whole experience is researchig baby products and picking out things for the registry. Agree? Also, having a baby shower!!!
My sister-in-law has insisted on letting us borrow all the baby gear she is no longer using (including stroller, car seat, pack in play, bouncer, swing, carrier, activity mat, clothes, and much more.) Some of it is great stuff that I would have picked out for myself.... some of it is not. If I accept these items, it won't be nessesary to even have a baby shower, as I will basically have all the necessities already. Not to mention, I'll have to give all of it back once she decides to have another baby of her own. My husband is overjoyed that she is letting us borrow all of this stuff, so it has been difficult to explain to him how it's making me feel.
Anyone in the same boat??
How would you handle this situation??
