Mom's and mom's to be

I believe Pooks or Dani asked this a few weeks ago and I should've gotten in on it then but didn't because I thought I could wait longer and didn't want to lose the info.  But if it's not too much trouble can you email me your registry or suggest any items that a first time mom may not think to register for.  I'd really appreciate it.  My mom is throwing me a shower in June because it will be cooler and easier/more comfortable for me to travel than in August.

My email is shelley-elle at juno dot com.

Re: Mom's and mom's to be

  • You are about to have an email. I kept mine pretty simple with most of the big stuff and very few clothes.

    That's my plan since people will buy clothes, blankets, and bibs anyway.

    They totally will and you will see it on mine already, stuff purchased not registered for. I don't want to complain but I need a car seat base more than the cute monkey outfit and accessories. So I guess I do want to complain at least a little. LOL

  • Summer sent me an awesome list. You should definitely get it from her.

  • I have started my list off of Summers and some of Crows suggestions, plus an IRL friend. Goodluck!
    I heart Ben!!

  • Shelley, you may want to think about a wipe warmer for your little guy. I found that I got peed on less once we switched to having warm wipes.

    Yes

    Ditto how helpfull the lists I got from everyone here. They were a great guideline when muddling through some of the supposed 'must haves'.

    Oh and if you have a BBB near you I really thought their checklist was decent. BRU was not very organized especially when you are going through the actual store. It was (and continues to be) pretty frustrating and we ended up doing online before going into the store.

    I hate how unorganized BRU is. I wish I had a BBB near us.

  • We don't have a BBB near us either.  Well, we have Bed Bath & Beyond but there are only 4 Buy Buy Babys near me and they are all 2 hours away in either NY or NH.

    Come on up to the one in Albany and I'll help you out w/ your registry in person! Wink

    I wish I was as organized as Summer and had a list, but I don't! And I already checked when Pooks and MarJo asked -- but my registry is no longer up there. I read Baby Bargains pretty much back to back. It was very helpful.

  • we registered at target Shelly. Check it out. I will tell Chet to text you tomorrow to let everyone know when she arrives

  • Thanks everyone for the emails and links.  I did buy the new baby bargains book and started reading through it.  Hopefully next weekend I can convince Jay to go with me to start registering.
