Babies: 3 - 6 Months

Anyone else's closet a disaster since giving birth?

I am just overwhelmed with clothing and I don't know what to do with it. 

I have like 4 different sizes of clothing spread over closets and dressers in 3 different rooms in my house.

I have 2 sizes from pre pregnancy, 1 from post pregnancy (to accommodate my giant boobs and weight I still need to loose), and one which is things that I bought while I was pregnant and wore while I was pregnant but are not maternity clothes and I could wear again in the warmer weather if my body doesn't go back to the way it was.

Ahhh. TOO. MUCH.  STUFF.  I can't wait to fit into half of what I used to wear again, or at least get down to a normal weight so I can make a decision about all of this stuff!

  • Actually my husband was just telling me this morning that I needed to clean my side of the closet and my dresser or he was going to to because it looks like a tornado hit our room.

  • Mine is. But the majority of it is junk. I have piles of stuff I cant wear anymore, which is just about everything that im donating, then the stuff which I cant donate and need to do something with. Then we have boxes in there, and ontop of all that we have Masons things. And its not like we dont have the room, we have 3 rooms but for some reason it all makes its way into our one closet. I need a day of serious cleaning.
  • AMEN! Same here. I have so much clothing in so many different sizes and I don't know what to do with it. I packed up all my maternity clothes in a box and put those away, couldn't do that fast enough I was so sick of wearing it. I want to fit into all my pre-preg clothes but I don't yet with the exception of a few shirts and my pre-preg "fat pants". I miss my old clothes.

  • I don't have as many sizes but maternity doesn't look good or fit, pre preg is a little snug so it makes me look chunky in places I'm not really, and u only have 8 lbs that I need to loose. I just hate the idea of having to get all new clothes and give away all those clothes.
  • My entire house feels like this!

    I just hired a new housekeeper and I feel like it is so bad that I need to clean before she starts on Monday.

  • I feel like throwing everything out and starting over again.   It wont be cheaper, but it'd certainly be easier.
  • Forget the closet! My whole living area is a huge mess! I've got my clothes from Pre PG packed away (which I need to find...), I've got my clothes in laundry bins and all over the floor in our bedroom, as well as in the closet/dressers, and then we've got Evvy's clothes in 2 or 3 bins inside the bedroom, under the change table, on the dresser, in bins outside the bedroom, in her pack'n'play change table section, and her toys all over the family room... it's a disaster zone! I need to hire a maid, but that won't be happening any time soon Tongue Tied

  • My closet has been this way. A couple weeks ago though I got some motivation and re organized everything. Stuff I wasn't going to fit into for a while I put in storage containers and put them in the attic. I gave some stuff to goodwill also. It feels a lot better to be able to walk in to my closet again. I also had let the light bulb burn out and was finding clothes by flashlight for a couple weeks!
  • YES.

    My summer stuff is all out, my winter stuff from pre-PG is still packed away and doesn't fit, I have my new stuff that accomodates my still puffy belly, maternity stuff still out because I don't know where to put it-

    AND work clothes from pre-PG and PG that I'm not using because I'm a SAHM through September.

    Ok just writing this has given me motivation I'm going up to do something about it right now!
