A baby registry that actually helps

Ask for what you'll use, plus a few things for month six.

4 min read

A registry helps the people who love you give gifts you'll actually use. A thoughtful one can cover a big share of your one-time costs.

Register for

  • Your car seat and safe sleep space
  • Diapers and wipes in a range of sizes, not just newborn
  • Clothes in 3 to 12 month sizes
  • Things you'll need later: a high chair, a bigger car seat, baby gates
  • A diaper fund or a childcare fund if the registry allows cash gifts

Tips

  • Keep receipts and gift receipts in one place
  • Check return windows; some are short
  • Many registries give a completion discount on items nobody bought
