Pro tip- make multiple registries! You don’t have to share all of them but add enough things and buy yourself to get the welcome box (if that’s a requirement). Having multiple completion discounts will also come in handy- it’s nice to have before baby is born to wrap up registry items and after baby’s arrival for those items you need more of or didn’t think of!

Yes, you need to add toys to your registry! Often forgotten but you will be using toys and trying to entertain baby before you can blink! Not only is it fun but it’s great for their growth and development.

Baby bathing, bath toys, medicines, pacifiers and more. A lot of these things are needs vs wants and I would definitely stock up on your registry.

I made one giant registry on BabyList to use as sort of a checklist and included all of the options I was exploring for different brands of car seats, diapers, you name it! Then I created smaller registries at Target and Amazon to actually give to people- I was worried BabyList would be hard and I wanted easy returns.

One of the not so fun but absolutely necessary parts of parenting! Lots of choices and one of the categories where one size does not fit all and different products work better for different babies!

One of the most fun parts of getting ready for baby is designing the nursery!

Everything you need to get started on your parenthood journey! Picking baby gear is usually one of the most stressed (and most expensive) aspects of buying for baby or creating a registry- take the guesswork out and follow these picks for my most loved items! Tried and true, you can’t go wrong with these!

Whether exclusively breast feeding, pumping or combo feeding having great products can make your feeding journey easier and less stressful! You think breast feeding will mean less stuff to buy but I find it’s quite the opposite!!!

There are so many items to choose from when it comes to feeding your baby. These are my top picks if you are going to be bottle or combo (breast and bottle) feeding! Think bottles, warmers, formula and more!

Everything you need to help you get through delivery and postpartum intact!

I know a lot of parents find this daunting but it can be so much fun with the right tools and tricks!
