Waiting for baby is truly a time like no other. From excitement to joy to a nervousness, youโre sure to run the gamut of emotions! During this time, your to-do list may seem a little unmanageable. It’s time to step back, take a deep breath, and focus on just one of the tasks ahead of you.
Zeroing in on babyโs nurseryโwhere he or she will spend the majority of their timeโis a great place to start. We know that with seemingly endless purchasing and decorating decisions, it can be difficult to know where to begin, so weโve put together a few tips to get you started with your baby registry :
Pick a theme
This is the fun part! As any good DIY-er knows, Pinterest is a great place to peruse for baby nursery themes. Take your time and narrow down what you like until you settle on one theme you love.
Browse Online
Browse online and find one decorative piece that you just canโt live without. Whether itโs a ballerina lamp, a 5-foot-tall-giraffe, or a star-studded throw rug, having one central item to build your nursery dรฉcor around can be an enormous help!
Create an online registry
Try sites like BabyList or Amazon Baby Registry so you can add items from multiple retailers. Add your one special nursery item and focus only on what youโll need for babyโs room. You can tackle baby gear another day.
Baby Registry Checklist
We realize that completing babyโs nursery is easier said than done. After youโve chosen a cute theme and fun accessories, you may find yourself fretting about how many sets of sheets you need or what a complete changing station includes. In order to make this process run as smoothly as possible, weโve put together a โBaby Registry Checklistโย that includes all the essentials to ensure that you are fully prepared when your bundle of joy arrives.
We know thereโs much more to do, but just think how good youโll feel once youโve determined everything you need for babyโs sleep environment. Like parenting, itโs best to take getting ready for baby one day at a time!
