When should i do my baby registry?

Question

im 12 weeks now and due the begining of march... when should i start doing my baby registry ??

Answer 1

I started mine when I was 22 weeks and had two showers and got most of the things I needed.  

Answer 2

Wait until your shower.

If you're bored then go ahead.  

Answer 3

I did mine a month before my baby shower... don't want to do it too early. You might want more stuff or change your mind about something you picked and want something else. If you must do it earlier or cannot wait, try a place that will let you update or change anything on-line so you won't have to keep going back to the store.

Answer 4

You can start your registry any time when you want to, it's hard to wait when it's something so exciting. The earlier you start the more time you have to look at it and see if you're missing anything before the showers start happening. Congrats on your little one!

Answer 5

I would wait till you find out the s*x of the baby. I did my registry at 17 weeks.And also remember to think about how the weather will be when you do register. That way your baby will have the proper attire to wear for the season.Write a list of things you think you need, I forgot about allot of stuff I needed and didn't put it on mine. well good luck it won't be long before you find out what s*x the baby is!

Answer 6

Its never too early to begin researching now the different brands and typres of things you want.  Even if you dont know the s*x of the baby you can still look at things that all babies needs whether it's a boy or girl.  I began my registry online at target.com and it took me a couple days to compile everything I wanted.  I wouldnt start that for a few months though.  Most women do that around six months, then have their shower around 32-34 weeks.  Good luck!

Answer 7

I did mine around 5 months after I found out the s*x of our baby.  That is a good time to start it.  If you are not finding out the s*x, you can start it at anytime.

Answer 8

I started at about 20 weeks after I found out my baby was a boy.

It's taking longer than I thought because I go back and forth on items, research them etc.

However, I did not let people know that I registered or where I registered so I'd be free to work on/change my registry at will.

Answer 9

I am due in October and my baby shower is in september. I Made my registries about two weeks befor my invitations were sent out. That gave me a little extra time to add things as i thought and remove things that i got.

So far its working out Great. :)

Good luck!

Answer 10

I am 6 months. Having my baby shower on October 4th. I just started my registry. I would say about a month before the shower so you can add stuff as you think of it.

Answer 11

do it whenever you feel like it and keep adding stuff to it as you think of it.

most people start their registries around 5 or 6 months.

Answer 12

It's easier to do the registry once you know if you're having a boy or girl. (If you choose to find out.) My fiance and I tried to start one when I was about 15 weeks but it was really hard because we didn't know if we should scan boy stuff or girl stuff lol.  We put things like diapers, a monitor and thermometer on the registry until we found out the gender.  Then we went back and added more.

Answer 13

I started my registry around 5 months and up until my shower, I was adding and removing stuff on it.  I also had a habit of going out and buying things for myself and then removing it from the registry....i just couldn't wait!  If you're planning on finding out the s*x, many people wait until they know...if not, feel free to start whenever...
