What is a baby registry?
 

I often hear that Target has a great baby registry and so does Toys R Us. But what exactly is it? :confused:

Re: What is a baby registry?
 

It is a "wishlist" of parents-to-be containing all the items they want for their baby on the way. A lot of stores like Target or Babies R us offer a baby registry. You will be given like a wand, scan the things you want for your baby as a gift. You will of course inform your friends where your baby's registry is. They will then go to that store and choose among your registry list there. Every time an item is bought it's removed from that wish list, I believe.
Baby registries are fun and very, very practical. :)

Abana's right. They're very, very practical. Check out Target, Walmart or Toys R Us so you could register your baby now and start filling your bucket list.

I've heard that BabiesRUs has a baby registry with lots of greats perks too.

Re: What is a baby registry?
 

It's a gift list that your friends could check into to know what you want for your baby.

I had one done before I gave birth ^^ It was real fun! It's like choosing things you want for your baby without cash :P And then you wait for your awesome friends and relatives to buy the stuff for you (and of course, the baby)! ^^

Re: What is a baby registry?
 

True! I'd shamelessly admit, I saved a lot of money because of it. Also, it makes sure that you will not have doubled gifts. :)

You choose a place you prefer first for your bubs to be registered. You fill their list with ALL of the stuff you want for your baby. Your friends will then use that list in choosing their gifts for your bubs. Very practical, realistic and fun! Say goodbye to old school gift giving of duplicate gifts and such. I've been a fan of these baby registries for my 2 kids!

Registries are very practical. We had our wedding registry and were overly surprised that its functionality is of great help especially in getting the stuff we really love. Baby registries are equally great ideas.

Re: What is a baby registry?
 

Great! Thanks for the suggestions ladies. :)
I'm thinking, is it ok to use the same baby registry that I used for the baby shower and for the baptismal?

Re: What is a baby registry?
 

My son's baby registry is at BabiesRUs. I might use the same one for his christening but will change to ToysRUs when he becomes a toddler. Wow! :)

Re: What is a baby registry?
 

I had the same for my son before. It's a fantastic registry.

Re: What is a baby registry?
 

I love BabiesRUs but I think I'll be getting another registry for my baby's christening or not have one at all. Not sure as of yet.

Re: What is a baby registry?
 

I didn't get a registry for my kids' first birthday. I think using a registry in their 1st birthday and christening is enough.

Re: What is a baby registry?
 

Looks like it's a great idea having one for baby showers and christening only. I love surprises too.

Re: What is a baby registry?
 

I attended a baby shower last month and the baby's registry was Toys R Us. Though the thought of a baby registry is practical, I admit, I grabbed some stuff that I wanted to add to their wish list coz I want to include some sort of surprise to the gift giving too.

Re: What is a baby registry?
 

I guess having a baby registry on the baby shower and the baptismal is alright. After that, enjoy the surprises!

Re: What is a baby registry?
 

Yeah, that's better. I also love surprises so I do think that getting a baby registry on those two special occasions are already fine. Thanks Gaetana.

Hi ladies! I got Target and Toys R Us for baby Sally Rustica. Thanks for your inputs lovelies!

Re: What is a baby registry?
 

I agree Halia. I love surprises too so that's a good idea.

Re: What is a baby registry?
 

That's great to hear! Toys R Us is fantastic! Congratulations to your new baby, what a classic name! :)

Re: What is a baby registry?
 

Thanks everyone for your inputs! You've all been very helpful. I could say that it helped us big time in maximising Sally Rustica's stuff and aided our finances too. ;)

Toys R Us and mamasandpapas.com are great baby registries! :)
