Registering is exhausting!!

Now I see why so many of you were smart and did your registry online! After 10 hours, we are finally home after a very busy baby day. My pumpkin spice latte treat was well deserved! Kudos to my DH who was a huge trooper today. We did a lot of online research prior to going but unfortunately our store did not have very many of our preferred choices so we now need to do half of our registry online after all that! It was a good experience but too much for one day. I thought going to multiple stores and knocking it out would be smart, but no. I'm excited to have more of a mental picture of what our nursery will look like and I'm proud of all our hard work!

  • Good job! I went into BRU a couple times very briefly, but registered 100% online. I just couldn't do it in-store.

  • Hopefully you won't be as overwhelmed with the online part, I found it much easier and enjoyable.

  • I only have a Target registry right now. DH did not like how long we had to wait at BRU to get checked out, so I don't really see him wanting to go back.

  • We just went last night to BBB and spent almost 3 hours only to end up with only 49 items on our registry!  We plan on doing an Amazon registry with a few big things like the stroller and infant car seat so it made for less items to scan in the store. But we have an appointment to go through monitors, pumps and carriers with an associate at BBB so we know what we want to add there.  I want to try registering at Target today for a few things like sheets, toys clothes etc. But it definitely sucks the life out of you registering.

  • 90% of my registry is at BRU and I spent four hours there the day I registered. I know alot of my shower guests are older family members so I wanted to make sure most of the items could be found in store and I did want to see a lot of it in person. I made supplemental registries and target and amazon for cloth diapers, BF-ing accessories and decoration pieces.

    No lie though, spent days tinkering with them online and I still check it every other day to make sure things aren't discontinued. I may need a registry intervention.

  • LadyFilet omg the prices scare me! I keep swapping things because I don't want people to think I am being ridiculous! I don't have a lot of time either because I think my shower invites are going out soon and then they will start being bought. No clue what I am going to do then!
