What were your registry must haves?

Question

My husband and I are having our first child in February, and we plan on making a registry for our baby shower soon and I was wondering what everyone's must haves were?

Answer

Most used items for me (7 weeks PP) have been:

1. Auto rock n play (LO slept in this for first 3 weeks)
2. Pack n Play with changing table! (Use this EVERY day, for changes and naps, and now at night next to my bed for sleeping)
3. Aden+Anais swaddle blankets! 
4. Optional, but I got a Snuza Hero breathing monitor and it gives me peace of mind while baby sleeps so I can sleep too!
5. Travel system (I would go to the store and test multiple out by pushing around and seeing which works best for you!)
6. A baby carrier! Babywearing around the house makes it easier to get at least 1 chore done during the day! 😂

And those are the items that I use DAILY that I'd say I couldn't live without!

Answer

I bought my boppy used but boppy pillow and covers, a&d ointment, breastpads and breastmilk bags if nursing, burp cloths, receiving blankets (can also be used as burp cloths, baby wash and shampoo. I could make a whole long list but these few things are stuff I use everyday.

Answer

I added a BOB Revolution Pro stroller, a couple attatments for it, convertible car seat, and a rock n play. Received all of the big ticket items I wanted plus everything I had on my registry. Oh and clothes for her. This is our second baby and clothes are not cheap. So I was so happy and grateful for all the clothes we received ( I did exchange some for the next size up though).I reccomend adding the big ticket items you want just to see if anyone wanted to get it for you. It saved us a couple thousands. One thing I wish I added more of would be baby wipes. Can't ever have too much wipes.

Answer

SIT ME UP FROG from fisher price is an all time must have!!! My favorite thing for my little one & he loved it & I brought it everywhere :-)

Answer

Changing table, nappy bin, tommee tippee perfect prep machine (if formula feeding, saves a lot of sanity lol), loads and loads of baby clothes, muslin cloths, baby bouncer, gripe water (just so it's on hand when 1 month hits) 😊 I also wish I stocked up a lot more on nappies and wipes!

Answer

A Boppy was something someone bought off our registry. We have used it so much!!

Answer

Besides the obvious necessities, a boppy pillow and a rock n play sleeper. For me, these are necessities and I'll be buying them myself if I don't get them as gifts

Answer

Bottle warmer (my son won't breastfeed so I pump everything he eats)

Halo sleep sack

Receiving blankets (at least 10)

Caddy to hold all my pumping stuff in

Boppy pillow

Bath robe for myself ;) makes pumping/feeding easier and keeps me warm for skin to skin

Answer

In the last week, the one thing I wish someone would have recommended is side snap shirts that don't have to go over their head. They gave us a couple at hospital and we've bought a few more because they are sooooooo much easier to get on.

The other daily use items:
- swing
- pack and play with sleeper insert
- boppy pillow for breast feeding. And for when my nephews hold her, it helps support her.
- swaddle blankets
- travel system, haven't used the stroller yet, but car seat all the time and it was cheaper to get the set.

Answer

Boppy u will use this when. Ur breast feeding or putting baby on the floor until at least he's 8 months.
