Before he even got a foot out of the womb our baby started treading lightly, thanks to the tradition of The Great New Zealand Pass On. As soon as the news got out that we were pregnant, offers of hand-me-down baby stuff started coming in from friends and family. We've had almost everything given to us:
- a whole wardrobe of maternity clothes
- pregnancy and baby books
- cot
- bassinet
- Portacot
- pram
- all-terrain buggy
- back pack
- baby bath
- bouncer
- baby gym
- nappy bag
- blankets
- muslins
- sleep bags
- toys
- oodles of baby clothes of different kinds and sizes
It's been amazing.
It probably helps that we have been laggards and had our baby after almost everyone we know has already finished with having kids.
Now I'm keeping my eye out for the next baby coming up so I can take my turn in the Great Pass On. It's nice to think that all these things we only used for a few months can have yet another burst of life.
