Organizing my closet for baby items, I had to throw away almost all of my clothes 😭💔.

The arrival of a baby brings about many changes in a household, and one of the most obvious changes is the need for extra space to accommodate all the baby items. As expectant parents, we often find ourselves faced with the daunting task of organizing and decluttering our living spaces to make room for the new addition to our family.

One area that requires immediate attention is our closet, particularly when it comes to clothing.

When I started the process of organizing my closet for baby things, I quickly realized that I had to make some tough decisions about my own wardrobe. As much as it pained me, I had to face the reality that my collection of clothes would no longer be practical now that a little one was entering into our lives.

It was time to bid farewell to my favorite dresses, stylish blouses, and trendy jeans.

The first step in this process was to sort through my clothes and determine which items were still suitable for my post-baby body and lifestyle. Some of my clothes were simply too small, as pregnancy had changed my body shape and size. Knowing that I would need comfortable and functional clothing while taking care of a newborn, it was clear that those tight-fitting dresses and jeans would have to go.

Next, I had to consider the practicality of my clothes. Would I still have the time and energy to care for delicate fabrics or hand-wash-only items? Realistically, the answer was no. The majority of my wardrobe consisted of high-maintenance pieces that required special attention, and it was clear that these were not suitable for my new role as a mom.

As I continued to sort through my clothes, I couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia with each item I discarded.
