You don’t want to end up leaving your baby shower with 3 of the same thing. Just randomly adding things to your registry and hoping for the best will result in a lot of stressful returns down the road! I had a friend register for 3 different baby carriers because she didn’t feel like making a decision about which one she wanted (just go with the Ergo Baby) and figured she could just decide later, but stuff gets hectic later. You will end up with so much unnecessary stuff if you do this! And it will add to your nesting craziness. Do not just add a bunch of random stuff to your registry… They are total lifesavers if you are feeling overwhelmed by this whole process! Their knowledgeable associates are available and ready to provide additional guidance and advice to new and expecting parents. The BBB checklist is the perfect mix of both.Īlso, buybuy Baby has expert registry consultants who are available to assist in-store via personal appointments! Which is very rare. Get what I’m saying?! You don’t necessarily NEEDa baby food maker but you may want one, but you do NEED a diaper genie. I was advised to “take it seriously but not literally” and to keep in mind that I would not need EVERYTHING on there, but pretty much everything I needed WAS on there. Their checklist is the perfect place to start. I genuinely did that, and I swear it was a lifesaver. And I’m not just saying that because I am partnering with them. Per a friend’s suggestion, I started by printing out the buybuy Baby registry checklist. Healthy, right?! #NOT Start with the buybuy Baby registry checklist and/or schedule an appointment with a BBB registry consultant! There is no in between with me, I either totally avoid something at all costs, or become completely consumed by it. Then, I became obsessive because it actually became fun. I avoided tackling the registry beast until I was about 5/6 months pregnant.

I was terrified! I put off registering for SO long. I get overwhelmed SO easily, and as if pregnancy isn’t overwhelming enough, throw creating a baby registry into the mix?! Forget it. When I was pregnant and someone would ask me, “how is your baby registry coming along?”I would literally well up with anxiety tears. If you are pregnant + overwhelmed + emotionally triggered by the word “registery”, don’t worry. All opinions here are my own.Īre you suffering from registry anxiety?! This post is in partnership with buybuy BABY, a brand I love.
