I'm pregant with my second, due next year. When I was pregnant with my first, my then very good friend gave me a sizeable bag of first size baby clothes. At the time, I asked her if she would like them back after my DS had outgrown them in case she wanted a second. She was adamant at the time that she was settled on just one child and we could keep them. Now here we are three years later and I've just found out she is expecting her second as well.
Should I offer the bag of clothes back?
Its slightly more complicated by the fact that we have since moved away, so I don't actually see her regularly anymore, so if I did offer them back I would have to either spend a good chunk of money on postage, or petrol. We aren't very flush at the moment and I wasn't expecting to have to buy a set of first size clothes for the second one. I also don't feel she particularly 'needs' a bag of second hand baby clothes back when she is forever posting on fb about holidays and spa trips that she's been on (which I haven't been able to afford in years).
She hasn't asked or hinted for them back, but I feel as though
I should offer, but that my need is greater and she did say we could keep them.
What would you do?
