Is it alright to reuse stored maternity and breastfeeding items?

[Hummingbird78]

Hello! I’m currently 36 weeks pregnant and packing my hospital bag for my second child. I don’t know if I’m being silly but do you think it’s ok to reuse things from my first (3yo). I have a pack of breast pads, silicone nipple shields, a pack of disposable knickers etc. they’ve all been kept in the garage and they look ok but I don’t know if they would be bad to use? Does anyone have any thoughts?

Why wouldn’t they be 🥴

As long as it’s not medicine, it’ll be fine.

Of course.

I’d wash/sterilise the things that should be washed or sterilised but apart from that you should be fine

Thank you all! Was just paranoid about damp seeping in, or silicone degrading etc!

If you have the packaging they might have use by dates? I'm sure I've had sanitary towels or tampons that I didn't end up using as I realised they were out of date.
