I have quite a few preemie clothes for a little girl, My baby finally out grew them. With it being so close to the holidays I would love to just give them to a needing family rather than sell them. IF you need them or know anyone that does, please reply or pm me, with your story. I want to make sure these clothes go to a needing family rather than someone who will just turn around and sell them.
Im hoping to have them shipped out by thanksgiving.
I don't know if you've thought about this, but we gave all of ours to the NICU that my daughter was in. Check with yours and see if they need any.
I tried, but they wont take them because just about all of them have metal buttons, and cant be used in the incubators. The nicu she was in is over an hour away anyway....and thats the closest one
Plus i know the boat i was in, when i got home and relized nothing i had would fit her. And having to run out and pull over 100 out of the air to get her clothes. I would much rather help a family with all the clothes
Aaah, I see :) That's weird, all of them have some sort of metal snap or zipper, with the exception of t-shirts. I wonder what they use.

Oh, I understand why you want to give them to a family. I was in the same boat, lol. I just know that NICUs don't typically have the budget to buy any clothes, so that's why I suggested to see if you've thought of it. That's all.
Give on :)

I guess it also had to do with if you dont have clothes they just use the hosptial shirts at that nicu..
Quoting twinmamaof3:We gave all of our twin premie clothes to the nicu. they were so grateful! They were in premies until they turned 5 months. as far as them having metal buttons they took ours, they just used them for babies who were in the ope cribs.
