Sharing what’s on our baby registry came highly requested by fellow first-time-moms who felt as lost as I do/did when it comes to baby registry items. After messaging with a bunch of you on Instagram, I thought it could be helpful to share what’s on our baby registry in two posts. First (this post), sharing what we registered for. And then come back with a follow up after we have had plenty of time to figure out what we love, didn’t love, were glad to have, or wish we had.
(Note: we built our registry based on research and recommendations from fellow moms, family members, and friends I trust! I have never done this before, so it’s a bit of a guessing game for now until we figure out what preferences our baby has. Every family and baby is different and will have different needs and preferences!)
I used Babylist to create our baby registry and it could not have been simpler. One of my friends used it for her baby registry and it’s so helpful to have one place to see and shop all of the items on your registry. Just wanted to share that I have been very happy with how it works! I added the bookmark plug-in to my browser and could easily add any baby item I found to our registry. I love that this allows you to gather items from across the internet. From Amazon to Target, you can add it all! Beyond just creating a registry, I have found it personally helpful to keep track of items we want for baby even if they don’t end up being gifted – I can purchase myself once baby’s due date gets closer!
Main Stroller: UPPAbaby Vista v2 in Oat Melange
Infant Car Seat: MESA
Travel system: Doona Car Seat & Stroller
Main Crib (we purchased all nursery furniture on our own, but here’s what we went with in case you want to add it to your registry!)
Mini Crib (to keep in our bedroom, a bassinet would also work!)
Crib Sheets (I registered for a few, but loving this brand)
**I personally didn’t register for clothing since I wanted to curate her wardrobe myself! But certain swaddles, onesies and things were absolutely welcomed!
Is there anything on our baby registry that you have and love? What are some other must-have baby essentials to register for? Share in the comments below so other expecting mamas can read too! xo
