I just found out from a friend that a diaper wipe warmer was essential to not waking up your little one when you change them in the middle of the night. Another friend swears by an over-the-door stroller hook to save room in her home. What are other items not so common, but would be a big help?
This one may not be that unique, but I like giving the medicine basket (infant tylenol, ibuprofen, saline drops, boogie wipes, nosefrida, nail clippers, orajel, gripe water, and a book) becuase I remember how stressful/sad DS's first cold was and having everything on hand at home made it much less stressful (don't have to go to the store with a sick LO to buy it)!
I second the Nosefrida! A lot of people haven't heard about it and even more are totally weirded out by it but it WORKS and it's amazing.
Re: What is a registry item that is unique, but extremely helpful?
Carter's Lap Pads-I use them for keeping the sheets free of spit up, but they can be used as changing pads too.
Safety 1st nail clippers with a light-Great for sneaky nighttime trims of LOs nails.
