Feeding chair and ottoman (we recommend a chair with a high back for extra comfort).
Trust us that many people (especially your non-parent friends) will want to buy the cutest item off the registry over the most practical or essential. If you know what your nursery theme will be, go ahead and add some decorative items to your list as well. Do you need something mini? Convertible? Green-guard certified? Under $100? All these options - in practically every style - exist. Find what works for your family and space. For sleeping, you’ll want options - even if you only plan on using a bassinet or sleeper for the first few months, you’ll need a crib eventually, so we suggest registering for it now. The big-ticket essentials you’ll probably want for the nursery are the crib, a chair and ottoman in which you can feed the baby, a baby monitor, and a changing table (typically one that doubles as a dresser for clothes storage).

Sun hats ( babies can’t wear sunscreen until they are 6 months old). Mitts to keep them from scratching themselves and to keep their hands warm. Even during on the hottest days, you might end up in an air-conditioned room and will be glad you have options. Onesies: tanks, short sleeves, or long sleeves? Grab a range. Yes, it’s very possible your newborn will have five blowouts in one day. Seven to 10 of each of the basics (onesies, pants, socks) is a good place to start. Keep in mind that, especially as newborns, they should wear one more layer than you (they can’t regulate their own body temperature fresh out of the womb), and when in doubt, size up. Will it be summertime when your baby is born? Then you probably don’t need to add a heavy jacket in the 0-3 month size. Climate is going to play a big factor here. And while you definitely want to load up on the essentials you need immediately (like diapers, clothes, and a somewhere for Baby to sleep), now’s a good time to ask for high-ticket items you know you’ll need a few months, or even a couple years, down the line, like a highchair, a car seat they can use beyond the infant months, and toys that will motivate them to walk and stand. What’s the climate like where you live? Yeah, Baby might need a cozy snowsuit - or at least a stroller footmuff - if you expect below-freezing temperatures.Īnd then, of course, there are the just-in-case items you’ll want to stock up on, like a little bit of baby formula (even if you plan on exclusively breastfeeding), because you never know. Will your parents watch their grandchild regularly while you and your partner are working? Consider an extra crib or travel crib you can leave at their place. Are you an outdoors enthusiast? Then a hiking backpack for when your child is bigger might be useful to add. Are you planning on traveling a lot? Then you might want to include a lightweight travel stroller in addition to an everyday one. Ultimately, the items you choose to include on your registry should be dictated by your lifestyle. It’s just the right balance of bare-minimum essentials and prepared-for-the-apocalypse necessities. 
How many onesies do I need? Why are there so many kinds of bottles? What’s the difference between a bassinet and sleeper? Take a deep breath and let our baby registry checklist guide you. While the idea of putting together a baby registry sounded fun pre-pregnancy, now you’re in the pilot seat and realizing how stressful it can actually be.
