Pregnant after a Loss

Registering is...

so overwhelming.I dont even know where to start. I find something I like, but the reviews are less than good. :( I tried the quick start one at BRU but lots of that stuff I dont really want.. I thought this was supposed to be fun!

Re: Registering is...

  • Nearly every item I wanted had poor reviews, drove me nuts.  On BRU one item can get terrible reviews, but the same item on Amazon has great reviews.  Ask other moms that you know for their opinions and start there- that's what I did.  Actually, I looked on a few fellow bumpie/friends registries to get ideas and asked them if they liked the item.  Good luck, I found it to be very stressful!

  • I agree, it is stressful.  I bought the book Baby Bargains, and read it cover to cover a few weeks before registering.  Then I looked at some things online and narrowed down some of our choices.  That really helped me not to become overwhelmed at the store.  It seems crazy how much stuff there is out there in the baby market!
  • A friend of mine gave me a checklist of items to start with- you still have to read the reviews, etc, but it gives you a good place to start organizing your thoughts and make a plan of action. If you want to take a look, PM me your email address and I'll send it to you!!

  • I also second Baby Bargains.  I went with my mom and a list and didn't rely on anything in the store to guide me b/c it's so overwhelming.  You can stalk my registry on BRU since you know my full name.  I did lots of research!

  • I went through the book Consumer reports best baby products.  Then when we went to register I just added what I liked and then when home and did additonal research.  If someone said that they loved something I would log in and add it.  If I got home and I double checked it in the book or online and it had lots of bad reviews I would delete it and look for something else....
  • Tell me its stressful, but I still can't wait to get to that point!!!  Good luck with your registry, I bet it'll be great!! Gift
