QBeej needs YOUR help

Bump Jackie · March 2013

Good morning SB!

Could you ladies help me out with something? Pretty please?

How did you get your partner involved (and excited) about registering for baby?

I feel this is a big struggle for a lot of women, and they get upset easily if they think daddy "doesn't care."

Do you have any tips?

I really appreciate it!

Showers are weird here and we don't do them until after the baby comes so no one registers in my circles. He would have left it all up to me though. I chose every thing we purchased. Mostly from reading about it on the bump.

I did a lot of research before hand so when we went to register, I was focused on exactly what we needed. H f

I gave him the scanner and let him zap away. I also let him have a say in some things and register for things that I normally would not have.

I actually need this answered, since I'll be registering soon, and he hasn't been too excited yet. The only thing he loved about registering for the wedding was the fact that I let him use the scan gun.

We didn't do the whole wedding shower thing, so he was excited to get to use the gun.

I don't think my H was even aware that we had a registry. I preferred it that way. I did all the research, and registered online through Amazon. His "get excited" job was putting everything together once it got delivered.

If those registry guns made a pew pew sound like a laser gun, men would be over the moon excited to scan items.

He was so overwhelmed I think it helped when I suggested we go and ONLY look at a few big things at a time. The first day we went we picked a few strollers and car seats then went home to research them. He just needed the process broken down i

I just made him go with me and he picked things out here and there. He did pick out her bedding so he was proud of that. Registering is exhausting, mentally and physically, so I just knew we would both be grumpy at the end. We did the big stuff in store a
