Preparing for baby is one of the most special times in an expectant mother's life--but it's also one of the most overwhelming times too! I remember when I was pregnant with Ethan and the very thought of registering for his arrival was both fun and terrifying at the same time! What brand should I buy? Do I need a bassinet? Did I really need a wipe warmer and snot sucker? What if my baby hates the pacifier? Should I buy ten different kinds to make sure?! Friends and blogs are a great resource, but even their opinions can differ from item to item.
Well there is good news for expecting mamas {I wish they had this when I was pregnant!}...Babies“R”Us Standalone stores now have a Personal Registry Partner at the registry desk and Category Experts for Gear, Nursery, Wardrobe, and Baby Care on the sales floor. These experts who make-up the Dream Registry Team, will provide great service and help guide parents through the registry process and product selection. After meeting the Personal Registry Partner and Category Experts, registrants will leave the store feeling confident in their product choices they made after registering. It's like having a personal shopper for your registry...amazing, right?!
Don't have a store nearby? They also have a Babies "R" Us app to help you navigate through this daunting process! You can create and download your registry, share with family and friends, search for products and create a checklist to help prepare for baby's arrival.
Best of all, Babies "R" Us is hosting a registry party on January 16th from 11am to 12pm (at standalone stores only) where you can get personalized help from their dream registry team along with the chance to win prizes and meet other parents-to-be! So fun!
Are you expecting a new baby? What items are you planning to put on your Babies "R" Us registry? Tell me in the comments below for a chance to win a $100 Babies "R" Us gift card!

fun list! i love our bob stroller. if i won i'd buy my best friend some gifts -- she's expecting a baby boy in march! xo jillian - cornflake dreams
ReplyDeleteI am expecting - OUR THIRD. Seems crazy to say this and while I don't anticipate a shower I am registering for some necessary items for those who wish to spoil us (as well as the discount when I need to buy it all). New swaddles, another convertible car seat, a mamaroo, a double stroller (can't decide between the baby jogger and the bob) and an extra camera for our motorola monitor.
ReplyDeleteI would use the gift card to splurge on a stroller upgrade :)
ReplyDeleteI'm expecting our first baby in May and was actually planning on registering at Babies "R" Us next weekend! My husband and I are in the midst of tons of research on all the baby gear we'll need - definitely exciting and overwhelming at the same time like you said!
ReplyDeletePick me! First baby boy due in June and I already have most of these items on my wish list! All great picks!
ReplyDeleteI wish, can I put a baby in the registry?
ReplyDeleteI'm expecting a boy in April! I am planning on buying a new swing becasue sadly ours broke at the end of Elin's time using it and that is my big purchase I need. Then just some boy blankets, toys, clothes since everything we have is very girly. :)
ReplyDeleteI would register for the rock and play!
ReplyDeleteMy niece is expecting a baby and registered for a rock and play by Fisher Price and a swing by Inguenity. If I won, I'd give her the gift card towards her registry items as they are struggling financially.
ReplyDeleteEmail is tonidreist@yahoo.com as I forgot to include in original email. :0)
ReplyDeleteso fun! I have been debating registering for the BOB
ReplyDeleteI've got my eye on a Dutailier glider for the nursery!
ReplyDeleteI am expecting my first in June and the bob is definitely on my list!
ReplyDeleteI would put the Sorelle Vista Elite 4-in-1 Convertible Crib in my registry.

We're expecting our little guy in late March and have kept things pretty minimal, as we already have so much from his big sister, but we are planning on replacing many of the things she loved - primarily the Halo Sleepsacks.
ReplyDeleteI am expecting my second in March! I'd love to upgrade to the double Bob!
ReplyDeleteI am expecting my 4th in Sept! I plan on putting a new car seat on my registry.

ReplyDeleteMy sister in law is expecting her first baby this spring and I would LOVE to get her a stroller that doubles as a car seat! yarbr012@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteNow that we have TWO (gulp!) on the way we will be needing a double stroller stat!

ReplyDeleteWe are expecting our second. This time around, I might find myself splurging on a couple items we didn't know about the first time around (Mamaroo). I was also looking into new baby monitors. We currently have the Motorola video monitor. It's worked great for 3 years, however, the night camera produces a rather fuzzy image unless it's right up close. How does the summer infant camera do at night?
ReplyDeleteWe are planning our first for this year. my must have item would be a pack and play but we really need everything!!
ReplyDeleteTweeted the giveaway : https://twitter.com/CMandKW/status/687804820070125568
ReplyDeleteMy daughter could use this gift card for so many things! Our first grand baby is due in March!
ReplyDeleteI just had my first baby in the fall and still have items to buy off of my registry. So far my favorite baby item has been Butt Paste and swaddles.
ReplyDeleteJust had a baby 2.5 weeks ago!
ReplyDeleteI am expecting my third very soon and I love the Dr. Brown bottles for my other kids. My mom just got me the Aden Swaddle blankets so I am looking forward to using those. I would love to try a new single or double stroller though. Mine is seen better days after using it a lot for 3 years with my other two.
ReplyDeleteI would put a changing table, teething toys, and a stroller. My sister is having a baby this Summer!
