Dealing with a child’s pee and poop will be a large part of a new parent’s life for a number of years. Luckily, there are some great items on the market today to make the dreaded diaper change a lot easier. Below are the items I use and highly recommend to add to the diapering category of your baby registry.
Many people might tell you not to register for clothing. For one, people are going to give you baby clothing as gifts regardless of what you register for because it is fun to buy cute baby clothes.
Another reason is that you don’t know how big your baby will be when he/she is born. Maybe your kid won’t ever even be in newborn clothes. Also, you don’t know how fast your baby will grow. If you buy too many clothes in advance the seasons might end up being all wrong.
So you are expanding your family, congratulations! Yes, adding a new baby to the mix will come with its own set of challenges but I found it was easier transitioning to a family of four (with two under two!) than I thought it would be. Below are the must-have items for your second baby. Some are obvious (like diapers) and others you might not have thought of (such as new entertainment for your first child). I hope you find this list of products for your second baby registry helpful.
I’m finding that more and more couples are recently electing to not find out the gender of their baby. There are multiple reasons for this. One reason is that it is really nice to have gender-neutral baby gifts and items that can be used with future children. If you announce the gender beforehand you undoubtedly will end up with a ton of pink or blue stuff.
Reading is one of my favorite things to do and I hope to pass the love of reading onto my daughter. I make sure that we read multiple books a day. I have found that the books my toddler tends to lean towards I do not find enjoyable – there are no storylines, just words matched up with pictures. Likewise, the books I like to read the most to my daughter she seems to lose interest with quickly. Here is a list of sturdy children’s board books we both enjoy to read together over and over again. These are books you won’t find on similar lists so I hope you come across some new favorites to read with your child.
