Ultimate Baby Registry Must-Haves: Targeting Your Essentials for a Complete Checklist

As a mom who has loved sharing her pregnancy and motherhood journey, I’m excited to not only talk about the great baby  product finds I’ve discovered on this second time around, but to tell you guys about why creating a Target baby registry is a NO BRAINER for any new parent to be!

Truth be told, I was lost. Becoming a new parent is crazy in every aspect, from watching your body change to feeling unprepared to take care of a new human. I often worried I wouldn’t have everything I needed for when birth finally arrived. Target registry makes all of these fears disappear, and with their amazing benefits for new moms to be, as well as the ease to shop for AMAZING products, Target is there to support new parents throughout their whole journey.

 

Target doesn’t just offer a relaxing place to shop for ANYTHING you may need from pregnancy to your baby’s early years; but it has provided me with a community that understands the needs of families that are growing . When I first started my parenting journey, creating a Target baby registry proved to be an amazing decision. I would be thanking myself for months to come! It offered benefits like a free welcome kit with a value of over $100, a 15% off registry coupon, and a year of free returns.

Here are some of my favourite items from Target that I really think you should consider when creating your baby registry. To us, these have all been MUST HAVES and stood the test of time not only with my first son, but with my daughter as well 🙂

1. Huggies Little Movers

Diapers are a constant necessity, and Huggies Little Movers have become my go-to choice for comfort and convenience. These diapers keep my little one dry while allowing them to explore their world without any worries –  not to mention they are the ONLY ONES that wouldn’t cause explosions at night. 

2. Huggies Natural Care Sensitive Unscented Baby Wipes

Wipes are an essential part of diaper changing, and Huggies Natural Care wipes have been a blessing. Their gentle and sensitive formula have never caused a rash and that’s not easy to say- when my daughters skin is extra sensitive!

3. Fridamom 33-pc Postpartum Recovery Essentials Kit

The FRIDAMOM Postpartum Recovery Essentials Kit was my lifeline after childbirth. This kit provides everything Iyou may need for a recovery journey, from soothing pads to comfortable ice pads.

4. Proudly Baby Wash

Bath time is one of my favorite bonding experiences with babies, and Proudly Baby Wash is part of our favorite memories. This gentle formula is MY FAVORITE and cleanses my baby’s delicate skin while leaving behind a soothing fragrance.

5. Dr Brown’s 3-pk 8oz Standard Bottles

Dr. Brown’s bottles have made feeding time super easy. Their innovative design helps reduce colic and discomfort, ensuring that my baby enjoys a comfortable feeding experience. It’s also the one bottle that both my kids loved, no hesitation at all. 

6. Avent 3-pk 9oz Natural Response Bottles, Clear

AVENT Natural Response Bottles have been a staple in my daughter’s feeding routine. The natural design mimics breastfeeding, providing a seamless transition for my little one and it’s the one she has been using the most lately.

7. Bobbie Baby Natural Ready to Feed Powder Infant Formula

When it comes to my baby’s nutrition, the Bobbie Baby Natural Ready to Feed Powder Infant Formula was my choice. It has all the essential nutrients for my baby’s healthy growth.

8. Hatch Rest 2nd Gen All-in-one Sleep Machine, Nightlight & Sound Machine

The Hatch Rest 2nd Gen Sleep Machine has been my best friend and I have thanked life for it a million times because it has improved the kids sleep IMMEDIATELY. With customizable lights and sounds, it creates a serene atmosphere that helps kids sleep peacefully throughout the night. For real, we forgot it once for a trip and noticed the negative effect immediately!

9. Snuggle Me Organic Lounger – Stone

The Snuggle Me Organic Lounger is something I could not live without. Babies lounge a lot, and having a cozy product where they could lay and I could easily move around the house was a MUST! Love the Stone color!

10. Frida Baby NoseFrida Nasal Aspirator

During those inevitable days of nasal congestion, the Frida Baby NoseFrida Nasal Aspirator comes to the rescue. Its safe and effective design scared me at first, but it’s magical and ensures my baby can breathe comfortably, allowing for restful sleep.

Creating a Target baby registry was a decision that definitely impacted my journey into parenthood. It’s an experience that’s designed to make new parents feel supported and cared for.  Those moments right before meeting your baby, you are filled with worry and doubt that you have everything you need for your little one to come, but Target makes it easier and really helps mothers feel better prepared. As a mom who values authenticity and sharing experiences, I can confidently say that a Target baby registry is more than just a list; it’s a little bit of peace of mind for every mom to be!
