Hello Everyone! A few of you have asked me for some recommendations on certain items to add onto a baby registry. I have created a checklist in a previous blog post and will be using that outline to share what specific items or brands I added onto my own baby registry here. I will link as many items as I can below and also any details that I would like to share! I have come to love certain brands and have also found great websites that have it all! Don't forget that I also have shared some sales/extra discounts to my 'Discounts' page for certain brands!
My Baby Registry Items
Category: Feeding
Breast Pump (If Breastfeeding): I ordered the 'Medela Pump in Style Advanced Starter Kit' through my insurance! I was shocked at how many options I had to choose from! I would suggest calling your insurance company to see if you qualify for a free breast pump through insurance! They also offer upgrades for an additional cost but it still saves you money!
Breast Milk Storage Bags (If Breastfeeding): I purchased the 'Medela Breast Milk Storage Bags' from Target because I wanted to get the same brand as my breast pump. However, pretty much all storage bags will work!
Nursing Bras (If Breastfeeding): I purchased two different types of nursing bras 'Women's Nursing Seamless Bra- Auden' and 'Women's Nursing Wirefree Bra- Auden' from Target. They are very affordable!
Nursing Pads (If Breastfeeding): I purchased the 'Medela Safe & Dry Ultra Thin Disposable Nursing Pads' from Target.
Nipple Cream (If Breastfeeding): I purchased the 'Medela 2oz Tender Care Lanolin' from Target.
Nursing Covers (If Breastfeeding): I added a few multi-use covers that I can use for nursing from Copper Pearl! They are adorable and such great quality! By far one of my favorite baby stores! See my 'Discounts' tab for a discount code!
Baby Bottles: I registered for a variety of bottles but I would recommend adding the 'Babylist Bottle Box' if you create a Babylist Baby Registry so you can see what type/brand of bottle your baby likes without spending a fortune on bottles over time!
Bottle Brush: 'Munchkin Miracle Cup Brush- Gray'
Bottle Drying Rack: 'Boon Lawn Countertop Drying Rack'
Bibs: Copper Pearl
Burp Cloths: Copper Pearl

Towels and Washcloths: I registered for some towels from Copper Pearl but they are a bit expensive. I also added towels and washcloths from Target and Burt's Bees Baby!
Category: Diapering
Diapers: I received a variety of diaper brands. It is your preference but I personally wanted to use Honest Company!
Baby Wipes: I received a variety of wipes. It is your preference but I personally wanted to use Honest Company!

Refill Bags for Diaper Pail (If needed)

Changing Pad: I went with the 'Hatch Grow Smart Changing Pad & Scale' but there are much cheaper options! I liked the smart technology with this one!
Changing Pad Cover: I didn't need one for the Hatch Grow but I would suggest getting a cover at Copper Pearl!
Category: Baby Gear

Baby Monitor: We registered for the 'Owlet Monitor Duo- Smart Sock Plus HD Video Camera' It is more on the expensive side but I think it will totally be worth it. This product allows you to hear, see, and talk to your baby from anywhere as well as tracking their heart rate, sleep cycles, and oxygen level with the Smart Sock!
Thermometer: 'Kinsa Smart Thermometer'
Grooming Kit: 'Dreambaby Essential Grooming 10-Piece Kit'
Baby Proofing Products: We received Safety 1st Baby Proofing Products!
Baby Medicine: I purchased a few all natural baby products from Zarbee's
Category: Nursery
Crib: 'Babyletto Scoot 3-in-1 Convertible Crib with Toddler Bed Conversion Kit' We got the color 'White/Walnut'
Crib Mattress: 'Newton Baby Mattress' We got the 'Standard Original' in White. This mattress is 100% breathable and machine washable!
Crib Sheets: Copper Pearl
Changing Table/Dresser: 'Carson Carrington Borlange Mid-Century White and Walnut 6-Drawer Dresser' We had a difficult time finding a dresser that would match the crib I wanted. I was debating on switching the crib to a different color but I really liked the white/walnut look with the Babyletto Scoot. I searched and searched until I found something! The one we chose isn't considered an 'actual' baby dresser. I looked on so many websites and typically only found either the color white or only 4-drawer dressers and I knew that was not going to be enough room for all of the stuff!
Rocking Chair/Glider: 'Ebern Designs Kell Rocking Chair' in Brown. When choosing a rocking chair, we found out how expensive they can get. They can range from $400-$1,000 which we thought was insane! We knew we wanted a nice and comfortable chair but we did not want to register for a super expensive one. Again, we had a little trouble finding one that had the walnut wood color in it but we ended up finding a match with a great price!
Bassinet: '4moms mamaRoo sleep bassinet' This bassinet is a little more expensive but I think it is going to be worth it with the 5 unique motions, speeds, along with vibration and sound settings that can all be controlled by your phone!
Category: Registry Extras (There were some things we added onto our registry that was not a part of my original 'Baby Registry Checklist'. These items are not absolutely necessary and is up to you whether or not you want to have them!)
'Hatch Baby Rest + Sound Machine' This product grows with your baby until they are a toddler! It is a sound machine, night light, clock, audio monitor, and more! It is available to be controlled by touch or by the app on your phone! Also, it can be compatible with the Alexa App!
'Deluxe+ DockATot' in Pristine White. We also purchased the 'Toy Arch Bundle'
I hope that this helps you add items onto your baby registry! Once my baby is born I will know more about which products he enjoys! Stay safe and healthy!
Love, Olivia
