I was thinking.....what are your top 5 (or just top 1, whatever...) items that you are most hoping someone will get you off your registry - for those of you that are having a shower, at your shower? And those of you not havinga shower but still registering, what would make a nice surprise??
I am hoping for my travel system, glider (since my earlier post got replies saying add it!) pack 'n play, monitor and crib bedding ... in that order.
A breast pump would be a super plus too but I'm guessing I'll have to buy that myself... It's in there with all the other "bigger" stuff like swings, boucers, diaper bags, etc. that are more pricey than bottles and burp rags but that would seriously help out!

Baby BOY!
I'm curious... why do you both need one?
I'm praying for:
1. Travel System
2. Dresser/Changer
3. "Swing"
4. Pack 'n Play
5. Bedding
Cloth diapers
Activity Gym floor mat
some Lamaze brand toys and floor mirror
socks (we're registered for some that look like he's wearing little crocs!)
baby food steamer/puree blender
I guess....it's hard to prioritize some of that, but those are some of the most special or more expensive items that I'd like to not have to stock up on for ourselves.
Yes, I'm wondering too....
1. Bum Genius Organic All in One snap cloth diapers
2. Swing
3. Moby Wrap
4. High Chair
My parents already bought our crib and dresser. My in laws bought our Peg Perego Skate stroller, bookcase, and nursery shelves. My grandma got our our Perego car seat, and a friend of the family bought our bedding. We are very, very blessed!
Plus, I have a ton of clothing from our shower, and from a consignment sale that my mom and mil split the cost of. We focused on getting 9 months and up clothing and the consignment sale.
crib bedding & accessories
front carrier
monitor
bouncer
chicco umbrella stroller
dr. brown's bottles

My MIL has already gotten us the changing table, crib mattress (crib will be coming soon), a swing, a breast pump, the stroller and the carseat.
My mom told me that she plans to buy the pack 'n' play.
I'm really hoping for a glider.
Other than that, I'm feeling pretty close to set.
1) Car seat
2) PnP
3) Stroller base to go with car seat
4) ?Boppy
5) Baby Bjorn
Those are the five highest priced items on our list ($50-$150). The first four because they're obviously very good items to have, and the Bjorn just because that's $80 I wouldn't have to spend myself. There are a lot of things I'd love to get though, like some of the little things (cloth diapers) that cost less but would be nice to not have to order myself. We didn't register for a swing/bouncer because we're waiting until he's born to see what he likes (SIL has both, so we'll test him in each before buying one). I'd hate someone to pay $$ on something that he hates. But those would be on there had we registered for them.?
