LPT - If you're expecting a newborn, you're best to get good quality second hand stuff, rather than brand new low quality stuff. It will last longer and it is better for the environment.
We have 2-year old twinnies and we were blessed with so much free stuff from clothing to big ticket items such as cots, change tables, outdoor slides, high chairs. We even managed to score 5 free cots (spread across grandparents' houses and our own).
I just gave a way a decent quality baby change table to a very stressed out father who is expecting a newborn in 1 month. I ended up driving the change table to his house as it wouldn't fit in his car. People love giving away their stuff to others. It makes them feel good knowing that another person will get to enjoy it, it also stops it from going into landfill and it means they don't have to look at it anymore. Contrary to what you think, the clothing you give away to charities or put in those clothing, bins (depending on where you are based) - in many cases - end up in landfill. Only 1-10% of it actually get recycled or reused. With fast fashion and furniture being so abundant these days (like Shein, H&M, Primark, Ikea, Aldi) it's really important that we try to reuse good quality stuff, instead of buying cheap new stuff.
