Common Baby Registry Mistakes to Avoid
Don't fall into these common registry traps.
Learn from others' mistakes. Here's what NOT to do.
Not Enough Price Variety
Include items from $15 to $300+. Some guests want to spend $30; others want to pool for the big stuff.
Too Many Clothes
You'll receive clothes whether you register for them or not. Focus registry on gear and essentials.
Forgetting Yourself
Add postpartum recovery items, nursing supplies, and things for YOU. You matter too.
One Size Only
For diapers and clothes, register for multiple sizes. Baby won't stay newborn-sized for long.
Not Updating
Remove items you've bought yourself or changed your mind about. Add new things as you discover needs.
Registering at Too Many Places
2-3 registries max. More than that is confusing for guests and hard to track.
