Is there a charity that takes strollers, highchairs etc?

I’m pregnant with twins and have alot of family all over the U.S. And Africa they can’t all come at once for 1 big baby shower (most in africa are just sending their gifts) so I’m having alot of different ones (im having my 4th one tomorrow) and I have a lot of baby stuf and I want to give some of the extra’s to charity (im selling some and keeping alot)

do you know any good ones besides goodwil?
I would like charities who help other teen moms

    I am expecting my first children (twin girl’s!!) in just afew week’s. I was wondering what other Mom’s found useful to have when they very first bring babie’s home?? I already have the big stuff (I think everything!) 1swing, 1bouncer, cradle, 2cribs w/attached changing tables, 2car seat’s, 2highchairs, bathtub, playpen, double stroller & a glider for me to feed them (I am going to breast AND bottle feed) & a baby monitor. I have already had my baby shower so I am on my own to buy everything else!!
    Thanks so much to everyone for the answer’s :)

        ever feel like a b****?

        with a 3 year old and 3 month old twins a trip to the grocery store is no fun at all! i have found myself being pretty rude to certain people who see a double stroller and automattically think its ok to get close to my babies and ask me a million questions. well this weeks trip to the store was especially difficult because i wasnt just getting the normal things. i am doing a baby shower for my friend tomorrow so i had a lot of stuff to get for that. and it took a while to pick everything out. we were there a good half hour longer than usual. so needless to say i was pretty stressed. after telling 5 people to "please dont get so close" (i hate that one the worse) and probably 10 people "two boys" and tons of "thank you" to all who said they were cute i got pretty hateful. i actually had a lady grab on to the stroller to stop me and asked "is it boy girl" i removed her hand from the stroller and said two boys and walked away without a smile. but then i felt bad. i know people dont…….
        mean to be rude about it….but they really are. i mean who grabs someones stroller. that just doesnt seem right to me. thats kind of above and beyond all the annoying things that have happened so far. i know at first i was thrilled to show them off to anyone who cared to see. but now that they are getting older and instead of sleeping they fuss the whole time i just want to get out of there asap and not take time to talk to everyone. how would/do you all handle this situation? do you think i was being too rude? i hate feeling bad about things like this…
        whoever is doing it…..please dont give thumbs down to people who answer my questions. thank you.

                POSTPARTUM NIGHTMARE, do I have it?

                Ok, long story, so don’t bother reading if you are going to be nice or have some real answers. I will tell my story then ask 2 or 4 questions. OKAY:

                I met my boyfriend almost 3 years ago. I fell in love quick then found out he dealt/smoked weed. I didn’t care at the time but then I decided to dump him because I wanted better. When I tried to dump him, he told me he didn’t want to lose me and quit selling. Then I accidentally got pregnant. It turned out to be twins. I told him that he could run away or stay and be part of the family but that I wasn’t going to raise children with someone who smoked. I thought he would leave but he COMPLETELY quit smoking. He got a job and has turned his life around. His family says I’m the best thing to ever happen to him and seems to love me and the new 7 month old babies A LOT.

                HOWEVER, I do have what you would call "anger issues". I’m kind of a bitch and I am really naggy and I do have OCD really bad. I used to be depressed as a child and still think I might sort of have a hormonal imbalance because of my anger. I just lash out, sometimes wether I want to or not. I don’t mean it and usually I come around an apologize and rationalize with people.

                So in the mean time, my boyfriends mom was not in the picture the first several months of our relationship and Jason said it was because he had run away from her for being a bad mom and wanted nothing to do with her, but because I was preggo I insisted he make mends because she should be part of her grandkids lives. Well, his mom seemed super nice at first but then she took over everything. She showed up when I was 1 1/2 months pregnant with a stoller saying "well since i was the ONLY one getting ready for the babies I bought you a stroller" then she told me "i’m going to throw you a baby shower" and that all made me mad because MY MOM is, I think, supposed to be the one throwing it, in a normal social etiquette, right? So then she comes over when the babies are born and tries telling me how to raise them and that pisses me off. She doesn’t ever even see them, and here she is JAMMING orajel onto a 3 month olds mouth because "she’s teething, tara" and she isn’t, i promise, shes 7 months old now and still no teeth, she just likes sucking her fingers because she never found her thumb! I tried being polite, but to no avail, she doesn’t listen. She is pushy, rude, invasive, and thick headed! I know, all MIL’s are like that, but this one takes the cake.

                Okay, so she’s only been around a dozen or so times since I’ve met her. (maybe 30 times in the 3 years we’ve been together, and 10 or so times since the babies have been born) so I can put up with all that shit.

                Since the babies were born, I’ve had one mental breakdown after 5 days of no sleep at all, when I was breast feeding and they were only 2 months old. I cried for a day or so. My mom took over and I slept. Surrounding that incident, I love my babies. They are the light of my life! I love having them and wouldn’t give them back for the world. Yes – I get frustrated alot. Yes – they are hard. Yes – Jason and I argue alot because of different parenting techniques. Yes – I check them in bed at night at least 5 or 6 times, because I’m paranoid. Yes – I cry happy tears when they rolled over the first time, when they sat up the first time, when they said "mama" the first time, but they were happy tears (I come from a family of "happy criers"). Well, i posted all these things on youtube for people to see. NO- i don’t cry all the time. NO- i don’t get "mad" at the kids (frustrated, yes, mad, no). NO – i don’t and never would DREAM of hurting my kids.

                I feel like I am still the person I was before. Bitchy, Naggy, and very OCD, but not depressed, not suicidal, not homicidal, nothing has changed since or because of babies. Well, the other day, his mom calls and says to me that i need to go see a doctor because I am post partum. i tell her no. A few days later she comes over with papers on postpartum and I throw them away in front of her. (remember, she’s met me maybe 30 times in 3 years). She calls me later and we get into a SCREAMING match so loud I have to get outside so babies can’t hear. She tells me I ruined Jasons life, that I tricked him into having babies (i told him I have endometriosis, and that it can make it harder to concieve later in life but i never told him i couldn’t or wanted babies or anything), that I behaved like a slut having relations with her son, and that I WAS postpartum I NEEDED to see a doctor and that i have a short fuse and I am going to hurt her son or my babies if I don’t get help. She also told me that she saw my utube videos and that i cried when the babies rolled over, and that it’s not normal to cry like that (i was just choked up, not sobbing or anything). She told me that I should go see a doctor because I cry when I’m happy that means I have postpartum.

                Seriously people, I’m not that big of a b*tch. Okay, well, I am to her now. We scr

                  When should I ask for the gifts back?

                  I gave a woman a really nice stroller for her baby shower. It used to be mine but I never used it because I found out I was having twins but I sti kept it. I told her when she is done could she return it. She told me sure.(she is a former co-worker) Her baby was born 3 weeks early because of some kind of complication. The baby came out blue and lived for 9 hours.It’s been about two weeks and my husband and I are planning a new child. I want to get the stroller back ASAP just in case she forgets. When should I ask for it
                  the stoller cost 250 dollars it is top of the line. I heard that she was going to sell the baby gifts that she got on ebay (im not sure if she is or not)and I wanted to make sure I got the stroller before she sold it
