I was thinking after 20 weeks after I find out the sex

SNail312` · August 2014

I've been slowly adding, just for fun.

mom2xover2002 · August 2014

Right now it's just basic stuff at target and a few at walmart. After the 19th I September it will get specific on girl or boy items.

krysmill · August 2014

I'm probably going to start mine in October since my mother is throwing me a shower in November due to family being in from out of town! I'll know the sex next month!

HailsMom · August 2014

I started one, but more as a shopping list for me than as something to share with other people.

lizjennings81 · August 2014

Same as @HailsMom; I started one last weekend because I was reading Lucie's List and figuring out what would work best for us. I may share it, but it's a shopping list to me.

I voted SS- it depends on whether or not someone offers to throw a baby shower

Nvywife · August 2014

It's not so much a registry but a must buy list for myself. I started it at about 8 weeks.

firelizard83 · August 2014

I still need to see exactly what we are getting from family from previous kids, so haven't been able to make a list yet. We should be able to start in a couple weeks after the his family finds out!

schnitz9 · August 2014

We went last week and did it all. I'm a very neutral person so its all yellow and greens. Black stroller and carseats. I'll prob add some stuff after our A/S clothing wise. I just wanted to get it done and outta the way.

We are just registering for the completion discount

AshleySparkle720 · August 2014

We started a couple weeks ago but that's solely because my husband deploys soon and wanted to run through babiesRus with the scanner... 8->

cannolioh · August 2014

I am not registering since this is my second. Last time I registered about a month before my shower, so around 28 weeks.

jaztastic · August 2014

I didnt realize how excited a lot of people would be about my announcement. My best friend suggested starting a generic registry prior to announcing because people will ask, "what do you need" and "are you registered" when you tell them you are expecting.

I started a registry at abour 12-13 wks, mainly to note the items I had been seeing and liked. I added to it right around the time I announced.

Im still adding to it. Having a girl or boy doesnt change what I will put on my registry, because I am planning to do neutrals anyway.

jennypolkadots · August 2014

I don't know that my answer really counts. I started a registry around 12 weeks just as a way to get organized. It is on Amazon and is hidden so you can't search for it. We are just taking our time editing it and then will make it public once it gets closer to shower time in Nov/Dec.

We plan to buy everything we don't get in January when we get a 20% discount through Amazon's mom's program. I am still hoping people will look and go off the registry because we chose specific items that we will really use and pretty much anything not on there we considered and don't want or already have. We will be grateful for all gifts, but there are certain materials/toys/etc. that I won't use with my child. We aren't finding out the sex so that makes it less likely we will get tons of clothes and it made it easy to start a registry early.

Valentino2013 · August 2014

We have started to look at the big stuff (car seat, stroller, etc...) but no formal registry yet. Prob over the next few weeks we'll create something. We plan on getting big stuff in neutral colors so it can be used again and will add other stuff after we find out the sex.

kefttsc · August 2014

I specifically told my mother that the registry was just a running list right now and not to buy anything. I'm sure You all know where this is going. She has bought all sorts of things already but I will have to return.

CatLadyTX · August 2014

I have a private registry on Amazon that I started about a month ago so I could start organizing. We will create one at BBB, BRU, and Target in a month or so, just so we can get the completion discounts.

aybo · August 2014

After I find out the gender I think I'm hitting the registry.

it's going to be fun!!! My family is so freaking big I will be blessed with all my needs. My friends are doing a separet shower just because I know too many people. I truly will have so much I know it and this is baby #1 and we waited 14 years together for our baby!! It's super exciting and everyone can't wait to start buying things. Some already have! Too cute!

MarieH88 · August 2014

Im 14 weeks and I started mine a week 1/2 ago. This is our 1st and I've been looking at unisex everything so that we can use them with our next.

Such as a grey crib set and unisex carrier, stroller and pack n play.

cls78 · August 2014

I hope to start mine this week!!

Is it too much to register at three stores? Will people think that's annoying?

that's a good question. I have the same concern. Mostly because I have family from all over the country and the stores vary from where they are.

kerrycharpe · August 2014

I've sort of vaguely started thinking about it....done some research here and there to see how much is different now. There are SO many more choices than when I had DD! It feels weird doing a registry since I'm a STM, but honestly DD will be 10 when her sister arrives and I didn't save anything.

Amandabw82 · August 2014

I registered on amazon. It's really only for me though. And I get the discount towards my due date.

We are registering at 3: BBB, BRU and pottery barn baby. I think people have their own preference where they like to shop- usually whatever is closest for them so I like to give people options- that way you may be able to get more things off your registry than if you just have one place and no one wants to drive to that location

joolaya · August 2014

I started looking and creating a list earlier this week, but I'm not making it public until I do some additional research on products and find out if we're having a boy or girl.
