I just came back from a run to Walmart where I picked up a couple extra sleepers for Maggie. The ones I grabbed came with bibs, and I realized we haven't used them (the kind you would use when bottle feeding) since she was at least 5 or 6 months old. Kinda went the way of the dodo bird along with the diaper bag.
Then there's the obvious stuff - we no longer use her bouncy chair, her jolly jumper, her exersaucer and some of that "equipment".
I am still using diaper shirts and onesies for both under shirts as well as just plain t-shirts under sweaters.
Anyone else still using bibs, onesies etc?
What aren't you using anymore?

I don't use bibs anymore either ..sometimes if she's eating something messy I'll try to put one on her and she just pulls it off anyways.
I don't really use her big stroller anymore (just the umbrella one), and alot of the time now I just let her walk with me in stores. Onesies are used only under sleepers at night. She has a booster seat with a tray that she uses to eat but sometimes I don't use the tray and just push her up to the table with us (she loves that!). Same here with all the equipment - it's all packed away (swing, bouncer, pack N play, etc).

yeah there are alot of things i don't use anymore. Bibs, bouncy seat, jumper, exersaucer, swing, the big stroller (travel system), diaper bag. I'm about to put away her high chair. We have a booster seat that she occasionally uses at the table.
I still use onesis, but only as undershirts. My baby is growing up... :'(

No more bibs, bouncer, jumperoo, swing, or the big stroller. I still use bottles and my diaper bag. I don't really use onesies anymore, but that's a really good idea to use them under sleepers and sweaters...

We haven't used bibs, bouncy seat, bottles, diaper bag, etc. for awhile. She still uses her high chair and onesies for sleeping.

I still use the big stroller but the only time I've ever used the stroller is while running. Other times, she's in the Ergo or more and more these days, walking with me.
We barely bother with bibs. We just plan on having a bath right after dinner and got lots of stain remover. I do still use my diaper bag, though.

We still use the Baby K'tan, Ergo (once in a while), stroller, high chair (we don't have a dining set to eat at), playpens - the big one we mainly use as a gate to block off areas and the small one is in the bathroom for when he has to come in there with me, jumperoo - every now and then just to change it up a bit if I have to leave the room for a minute. He's got a few onesies and sleepers still but not many. We still use the changing pad too, although we haven't used a cover on it in forever and the plastic is way ripped from all of his squirming.
We didn't really use bibs for very long. We usually let him eat undressed or just get his clothes messy.

We use bibs for the copious amounts of drool. LOL. That boy can wet his entire shirt in a few minutes. I did have to find the ones that snap instead of velcro though. He just pulls them off if he can.
We don't use much of anything anymore. If we are out for a long day, we'll use the Moby, but otherwise he is walking or sitting in the cart at the grocery. We don't carry a diaper bag unless he is going to the sitter since he needs a lot more on those days. If it is just me and him, we take a diaper and a cup and a few snacks and put those into my purse. He is pretty easy.
I am thinking about selling all my bigger baby stuff (like the swing and such). I think I'll keep the pack and play just for potential foster children, but I will buy a newer and smaller swing if we need one for a foster child.

Up until this week I would have said we always use bibs when eating but he's decided he doesn't like them anymore. I still make him wear one when we're eating something really messy though.
I still use the pack 'n play (for now at least) to put him in when I shower. He's quickly reaching the height limitation on it so we won't do it much longer.
We sold our stroller a few months ago knowing we're going to have to buy a double soon so he walks, we carry him, or he rides in a cart everywhere we go.
I've saved almost everything from him and now I'm glad I did, this baby is another boy so it will all come in handy again. After this baby is done with the stuff though I'm selling or donating everything.

I'm glad you mentioned that because I hadn't thought about the height limit so I went to check it. Luckily for me Vincent still has 6 inches to grow before he reaches the limit, lol. And if we had an infant car seat he'd still be able to fit in that too, I think.

Long gone are the swing, old (disliked) high chair, johnny jump-up, the playpen she refused to sleep in, bibs, baby carrier, exersaucer
We still use the stroller, onesies, diaper changing table, diaper bag, booster seat with or without tray
The booster seat is going unused this week, because she'd rather stand or sit in one of the "big people" chairs. Every time we attempt to sit her in there, she starts screaming, crying and arching her body. Maybe I can convince her that it's where the cool kids hang out by having my older daughter sit in it and talk it up?
Now I should really go through her toys and thin them out, since Christmas is coming!

We use her stroller sometimes...hubby is the only one who uses the ergo and thats even rare...diaper bag, high chair. Oh! We haven't done onesies since she was about 6 months old but I just bought her a few 18-month sizes for our trips to the grandparents because I don't want her belly to get cold.
