@shaylalr I have the same issue. People went clothing crazy. A lot still have the tags on them, but no receipts. I don't want to be rude and ask for them. I think we should be fine just going to the store and returning them without a receipt just explaining the situation. The worst thing that could happen is they could say no or just put it on a gift card.
Pretty much all of the clothes I got have no tags at all. I'm not sure why. The worst part is I can't figure out what stores they come from! I tried the big places like Target but no luck so far.

Try Google search on the tag on the inside. Maybe that can help direct which stores.
@shaylalr - for my shower with DD I received 3 diaper bags but thankfully 2 had tags. I downloaded an app that scans tags and then it showed me where you can buy the items. One was from Walmart that I returned for store credit. It was filled with items that I didn't need and Walmart took some of them back but not all. Target took a few back too. The rest I just gave away.
Unfortunately I don't know who will take back items with no receipt and no tag. You could sell the items on a used children's group? I belong to a local Facebook one.
Anyone have any tricks to keep cats from jumping over baby gates? In reality, its just one of my cats, but I really want him to stop going into the baby room.
Here's what we had for DS (which is why his name is still partially on the door, LOL, we are still trying to figure out the best way to get that off and replace it with hers). It is a half screen door with a latch at the top and magnets. We can see in the room perfectly, but there is no way for our four cats to get in there unless we accidentally let one in there. It worked really well for DS. I'm not sure how easy it is to make something like this or what it costs because my dad did it for us, but I thought I'd share.
Question for STMs: what's you opinion on the pain level from the injection of a epidural?
Bee sting from the lidocaine* injection. The first clean your back, then numb the area with lidocaine prior to the actual epidural. Some people have a weird feeling once it placed. I did, it was like a 2 seconds lightening down my back. It did not hurt, but felt weird.
*It is normal lidocaine, but I have seem them use other but simuliar numbing "caines" (novacaine, buvicaine....)
Where do the people who start the random threads go? As much as the threads are annoying and clog up the board, they bother me a lot more when the OP never replies to anything. Did you gain 20 pounds overnight weight gain check in thread starter? Did you cancel your baby shower no friends/family/baby shower girl? I need closure on the random internet stranger situations.

Exactly this. After contractions, the quick fast lightning sting is soooo worth the glorious rest that comes after an epidural if that's the route you choose.

Echoing other responses. I don't recall much pain at all. I was a little afraid that I'd have a contraction during the process - not sure why it made me nervous but it did. I guess they needed me still and the thought of a contractions made me scared I was going to accdiently move. But they did it quickly with no issues

My anesthesiologist was terrible at getting mine in, and even then, it didn't hurt too much... WAY less than the contractions I was having while she was trying to get it in. The most awkward part was having to have the nurse bear hug me forever while she did it.

Just be aware if the Facebook group is public and you're friends with the gifter on Facebook that your post trying to sell the item may end up on their newsfeed. I was selling a bunch of furniture, clothes, jewelry etc. before a move a few years ago and a friend of mine made a passing comment about me selling a bunch of things. I realized later that I'd posted some jewelry she'd given me as a gift - whoops! Just wanted to warn you about a potential awkward moment
Question for STMs: what's you opinion on the pain level from the injection of a epidural?
Honestly don't remember feeling a thing. I might have felt a tiny prick from the lidocaine injection but then I didn't feel any discomfort from the big epidural needle at all.

So true. I was in heaven after my epidural. Sitting up laughing and joking with DH, ate some dinner, it was awesome. I actually turned to my nurse and told her I think my labour stalled because I wasn't feeling a thing, not even pressure or tightening, and she laughed and told me I was having a really big contraction at that exact moment.

@LDSJM123 I wasn't going to watch this season (I watch enough junk reality tv aka Bravo)....but then I heard Aaron Rodgers' little brother is on it. So I must watch! I'd participate in the thread!

I might just have to watch it now!
