Congrats! You’re expecting! And your friends and family are anxious to shower you with everything you’ll need for your new little bundle of joy. And – to the surprise of absolutely nobody – we’ve found that the MOST effective baby registry is none other than (drum roll please)… AMAZON.
Wait, you didn’t know that Amazon has a Baby Registry?
They do, and it comes with some great benefits.
- Shopping Guides. What all will baby need? Amazon knows! You'll see best sellers, trending items, and curated picks along with a registry checklist of recommended items to help you prepare for your little one.
- Registry completion discount. Amazon offers a discount called the Completion Discount on remaining eligible items from your Baby Registry. When the discount is available, you must add eligible items to your cart from the Your Registry page with the “Use Completion Discount” option checked to receive the discount. Only eligible items displaying “Completion Discount Eligible” on the Your Registry page qualify for the Completion Discount.
- An opportunity to claim a Welcome Box. A surprise selection of full, travel, and sample-size products for parents? Yes, please! To claim a Welcome Box, sign up for Prime, add 10 unique items to your registry, make a purchase of $10 from your registry (either by you or your friends and family), and click the “Claim Now” button.
- Ability to add a Diaper Fund to your registry. Amazon makes it easy for friends, family, and colleagues to contribute towards your baby’s diaper stash. All contributions received are in the form of an electronic Amazon Gift Card which you can use to purchase diapers or many other eligible goods and services on Amazon.
- Endless options to add to your registry! Choose from millions of products on Amazon, including physical gift cards to your favorite places.
- Extended return period. No need to rush to get those returns off quickly. You can return eligible gifts purchased by friends and family from your baby registry for a full 365 days. (Which is perfect, since a lot of the gifts you receive might not be items you’ll use right away for your baby.) The easiest way to return gifts from your baby registry is through your Thank You list page.
- Group Gifting. I love that Amazon allows group gifting for baby registries. With group gifting, anyone can contribute to help you purchase the more expensive registry items, like your baby's top-of-the-line stroller!
Once you’re created your baby registry (use this affiliate link), you can easily share it with friends and family as well as manage your returns online. There are options to send the baby registry details via email, to receive gift alerts when items are purchased, plus you can receive the Baby Registry email newsletter, filled with maternity tips and deals!
WoodlandsMommy.com wishes you the best during this stage of life and always! Enjoy your new bundle of joy and all that the journey has in store for you!
