Can you think of anything I will need to add to my Baby Registry?
I'm doing it at both Babies "R" Us and Target. I've added most of the basics, i.e. crib, stroller & car seat, high chair, Changing Table for room, dresser for room, etc. What else can you think of, as far as the smaller things go, that I should add to the registries?
A lot of great tips so far.
The rule of thumb is 4 items on your registry for each shower guest. Sounds like a lot, but when you start adding in the smaller/lower cost items it adds up quick. Another tip is to register for what you want, not what you would buy yourself. For example, you really want the $200 video monitor but it is out of your price range. Put it on your registry, if you get it great, if not, then buy the one you can afford.
Stores want you to register, so take advantage of the benefits they offer. I'm most familiar with BabiesRus, so I'll use them for an example. Anything on your registry is a "no hassle" return, so even if you've registered for something at Target, also add it to your registry at BabiesRus. This way if you need to return something, and don't have a gift reciept, it's no problem. Babies also has a registry completion coupon. This gives you 10% off anything left on your registry when your due date is near. If there is something you need to buy, go online and add it to your registry, then save 10% when you buy it.
Coupons are another great way to save. I know BabiesRus always give away 20% off coupons to get customers to come back. If you ask they will give you a bunch which you can give to your friends to save them money.
Some overlooked items:
Mittens, they come out with fingernails and always seem scratch themselves whenever you want to take a picture.
Sassy diaper sack dispenser and refills.
Diapers. If you are using disposable diapers expect to spend $1600 - $2000 before potty training.
Chicco caddy clip on high chair. Great for use in restaurants and friends homes.
Tiny Diner Mat. A suction cup mat for the table, great for restaurants.
Bath tub. The First Year's sure comfort tub is an great choice. it fits in a kitchen sink or tub, comes with a sling for newborns, a temperature sensitive drain, and has 2 seating positions for 6 months +. It's also only $20.
Boudreaux's Butt Paste. Funny name, but it's the best for diaper rash.
Thermometer. Your pediatrician is going to want rectal, so go with one like Safety 1st Hospital's Choice Exchangeable Tip 3-in-1 Therm Set($20). It has interchangable tips, and reads in only five seconds.
A play mat for tummy time. Evenflo ExerSaucer Triple Fun Jungle has a mat for tummy time, then you use it as an exersaucer, and when the child stand, it turns into a s-shaped activity table. It retails for $120.
Again, don't forget to put the small items on your registry; bottles and all the nipples (3month, 6 month...), pacifiers in the different sizes, wipes teethers and the like.
Hope this helps,
Alan
