Happy TUESDAY, everyone! Now, I’m not going to say right this second that Adam and I are ANY kind of parenting experts. Baby dude here is our first go around at this thing. Everything we put on our registry was with LOTS and LOTS of help from parents, friends, doctors and you lovely people from my internet fam. This list has been passed off by some awesome veteran parents so we feel pretty dang good about it. If you wanna see what you’re gonna need for your little first baby – keep on reading!

PIN THIS FOR LATER:
For our registry, we used a universal baby registry because it made it SO EASY to add things from every single website we wanted to without restrictions. I HIGHLY recommend! We didn’t have multiple registries on several different websites for people to navigate – everything is just in one easy spot. PLUS – if you already started a registry at another store, you can easily sync it right to your universal baby registry so you can have it all together! There are so many things you need to do to prep for baby, this should NOT be one of the things stressing you out!! Another easy perk?? You can scan barcodes while in store with the MyRegistry app and it will automatically add that product to your registry. Once something is bought, it greys out on the screen and shows “purchased” underneath it so you can avoid duplicate gifts for your little one. PLUS – friends and family are able to sort the list by price, store, favorites or unpurchased to make it as simple as possible on your guests. CLICK HERE to get started on your baby registry!!
Getting ready for a baby is no walk in the park. It has been SO stressful trying to make sure that we having everything we need on this list, so that our friends and family have an abundance to choose from from EVERY price point. At the end of the day – it doesn’t matter what anyone gets us for the shower, as long as they are here and happy to celebrate the upcoming birth of our baby boy. We have been so surrounded by love when it comes to this little guy and THAT is what really matters.
Another fun thing we are opting to do – instead of asking for cards with our gifts, we are asking everyone to bring a small book instead. We’d love for them to sign the inside cover, that way we have personalized books to read to baby boy once he’s here!
I hope this baby registry guide help you pick the BEST things you can for your future baby, and reminds you to put some must-needed items on your own list! Anything I forgot to mention? Let me know in the comments below.
I’m not a mom but you seem like you’ve got this thing down!
All the best to you and your family,
xx

You have so many great products, you’re a pro! I love the idea of bringing a book instead of a card, it’s such a thoughtful way to think of someone when you read your little boy a book!
I know literally nothing about babies or being a parent but this is such a great comprehensive list! I love that idea about getting books instead of cards!
Wow this is quite the list! We used most of these things too, except the baby bullet and the wipes warmer. I just used my vitamix 🙂
So many great items here! Going to share with my sister who is preggo right now.
Such a great list!!! I bookmark it for my next baby purchase
This is such a great list! It’s amazing how many things that you won’t use or maybe use for a limited time that you’ll be glad you had. We swore by our rock n play, even though there are mixed opinions on in. It was the only thing Henry would sleep in, he loved being elevated because of his digestion.
So many good things on this list. I definitely could attest that the Boppy is in my cant live without list
