Congratulations! You are going to have a baby!
Now you get to start planning for the arrival of your new bundle of joy.
Creating a baby registry can be very helpful in the planning process. I have talked with a lot of new parents that don’t know what they need for their baby. As you start to think about what you want for your baby you can use your registry to make a list. This will help you keep track of what you have thought about and what you still need. All of the items you put on your registry can be edited at any time. Make sure you include the big items as well. Some people like to buy a gift as a group so they can purchase a higher priced item.
Registries are very easy to share with friends and family. All you need to do is tell them the website and they can look it up by using your name. This will help them pick out a gift of something you want and need. Lots of people love to be able to get you what you want and not have to hunt for it. Make sure you share your registry with all the guests that are invited to your baby shower.
I have put together a list of 4 stores you can create a baby registry with. Each of these stores offer coupons and a free gift when you create a baby registry with them. If you are up for it, you can create a registry at all of them or pick the one that works best for you.
