I cannot wait to register! I loved it so much when we got married, and I've already been to the store three times to check out brands and things. Such a silly thrill, isn't it? The litle things keep me happy
My friend is about 10 weeks ahead of me and just registered last night... I thought after the 18 week mark we could get started, but that's next week for us. Am I too early? Are any of you October moms registered yet? I know there's no "right" or "wrong" time to do it, but I didn't want to be looked at funny if I'm too ahead of the game. We're not finding out the sex so we don't need to wait for the anatomy scan which is in two weeks.
Re: Any Oct. Moms registered yet?
It's what I'm doing now! Like the PP, I'm not broadcasting yet, so I'm doing this slowly, doing my research, etc. I'm using amazon's registry, and I'm loving it, there is nothing they don't have. They also have this fun feature where you can mark each item Must Have, Like to Have, or Nice to Have.
I don't have any problem with starting it now, my friends are all very eager to see what I'd like. Even so, I'm not announcing the registry until at least 24-28 weeks. Since I'll be on the wrong side of the country until almost 36 weeks, we don't want to start receiving gifts until after we get back to LA.

I haven't started one... and I am actually dreading it (I hated registering for my wedding too).
I don't know why I have such issues, but I feel like I am telling people to buy things and spend money on me, and it makes me really uncomfortable. I have a feeling my sister is probably going to do most of it for me because she loves that kind of stuff. LOL

I officially got the "OK" to register today ;]
DH and I stopped at BRU and he asked when I was gonna start registering for the basic stuff. He said I should go ahead and do that. Sounds good to me!

BLOG :] & Shaping Up
We started our registry a few weeks ago at BRU and on Amazon. We have pretty much everything on there but bedding.
The best thing we did was take friends who have 1 year olds and we were out of BRU in just over an hour.
glad to hear it, ladies! I'm looking forward to it. When we registered for the wedding, it was an entire day- very long- but fun. After one or two trips to the store that weekend, I did most of the updating online. I have a feeling that, since I don't have that kind of stamina right now, the first trip to begin the baby registry will be MUCH shorter!
Happy Mother's Day to be to all of us!
I think I will wait til after the anatomy scan.
but I hated registering for the wedding. It was the worst. It might be easier for the baby because everything will be useful and not for example just buying a new toaster so they all match.
I have been eyeing strollers in the neighbourhood. People have lots of opinions, so I am glad to hear any of them.
