Top Baby Registry Must Haves

I have scoured the internet, forums, and websites, compiling a list of the top Baby Registry Must Haves! Here it goes:

Cloth diapers: These can be dyed any color, and come in handy for spit-ups, drooling, and Emergency diapers! cloth diapers are a baby must have secret of our previous generation, and are making a HUGE comeback!

Graco Quattro Tour Travel System Stroller: Doubles as a car seat, baby carrier, and stroller, all in one system. This is rate 5/5 by moms!

Do it Yourself Belly Cast: For mommies who want to preserve that baby belly in a special way!

Pampers Swaddlers: Get size 1, because the baby will be out of the newborn size in no time. These are great because there is a cutout area for the umbilical cord, so it doesn't irritate it.

Baby Bjorn Infant Carrier: This SAVED MY LIFE! The only time my hands were free was when I carried my daughter in her infant carrier. it mimicks the womb, and brings mommy and baby close together, while preserving mommy's sanity!

The Happiest Baby on the Block Book: I can't say enough about this book. another lifesaver. I give one to every new mommy!

Sassy Me in the Mirror: this attaches to the infant carrier, and allows the baby to look at themselves. Another lifesaver. I'm an advocate of anything that gives mommy 5 minutes of breathing room!

The First Year;s American Red Cross Grooming Kit: Has everything that you need for baby, and the price is nice too!

Any Baby Bouncer: Great for multiples! Baby bouncers create an in-the womb sensation for baby. Combine this with swaddling and you're guaranteed at least an hour's worth of happy baby! Crucial!

Playtex Drop In System: Forget washing the inside of bottles all the time- these are disposable inserts, and my daughter loved them. They alse compress to get the air out (to prevent upset stomache), and are easy on mom too! They also come with a great pump and storage system for breastfeeding moms as well.

Safety 1st High Definition Digital Baby Monitor: This isn't as pricy as the video monitors, and you can turn down the volume and watch for it to light up if the baby is crying as well. this is good for colicky babies; when the mommy wants to make sure the baby is ok, but can't stand the screaming! You can still monitor the baby without the price of video and the migrane!

Diaper Genie: This works to take the stink away from baby diapers, and is disposable and almost air tight. A great investment, and alternative to running to the garage trash can every 10 minutes.

Fisher Price Aquarium Bathtub: This is great because it is convertible from newborn to toddler, and comes with cute baby toys to go with it. My daughter loves hers!

Boppy Einstein Me Play Gym: Has lots for baby to do, and provides lots of fun and entertainment. My daughter used to fall asleep after playing! Always a bonus!

Onesies: These are always good, but I recommend getting size 12 months, because most moms end up getting too much 0-3 clothing, and baby quickly grows out of it before even getting the chance to wear it!

Baby Slings: Like Infant carriers, these keep baby content for long periods of time. Most moms in other countries carry their babies throughout infancy, and these are extremely helpful!

Baby Einstein Stationery Baby Entertainment Center: Another lifesaver. It's great in the kitchen while you're trying to cook a meal and want to make sure the baby is safe and happy.

Skip these:

Baby Shoes/Sandals: These are cute, but not practical, and a baby under 6 months probably won't keep them on anyway. I recommend not buying any shoe size smaller than size 3.

Pre-made Baby Swaddlers: These don't swaddle the baby tight enough to achieve the benefit of swaddling. Instead, opt for nursery blankets.

Baby Walkers: These can be dangerous, especially is a stairway is accidentally left open. Opt for a stationery entertainment center.

Stretchmark Cream: Most of these do not work. I used pure olive oil after a shower, and throughout my pregnancy and was able to escape stretchmarks, even though my mother had them pretty bad. I swear by constant olive oil application.

If you have any other mommy must haves please share!
