Registering
So is anyone registered at 2 places? We started registering today (although half of it isn't showing up for some reason I am sooo mad!!!). We did babies r us and buy buy baby, a friend said it was stupid to do two stores since they carry the same things, so now I am wondering if she I'd right . I thought it would just give people options ya know?
On a side note... What bottles did you register for?
What an exhausting day lol

Re: Registering
I registered and BRU and Target. I mainly did it because I know some of my relatives/friends cant afford BRU prices and also Target is more accessible where Im located. I saw nothing wrong with registering at two places...just make sure you dont add duplicate items.

Re: Registering
I didn't register for 2. Just did bru. I couldn't have been bothered to be honest.
As for bottles, a friend of mine gave me her dr browns and I didn't receive my born free ones at my shower so im going to pick those up as well.

Re: Registering
LOL for DD I registered EVERYWHERE I could so I could get the completion discounts! Also because people lived in different places in the country where there were different stores. I actually registered at BRU, BBB, Amazon, and Target. Most of the items I received at my shower were from Target.
You'll be stalking your registry so much, you can just pull stuff once it's bought. BBB has such a better return policy, I'd put more stuff from there on it than BRU where they're a huge pain to return, even when it was bought off your registry sometimes.
I started with the Playtex Drop-ins and Ventaire Bottles with DD (wide-neck because we were trying to BF) but one day around 8 weeks old, she just flipped out and we switched to the Dr. Brown's bottles and have been using them ever since. We also tried the Breastflow bottles at the beginning. Babies are so fussy lol... you really don't know which your baby will want until you try. I'd put a few different starter kits on your registry and give them a go.
Playtex sells an adapter kit so you can pump directly into the bottles from Medela pumps. Super convenient.

Re: Registering
I registered at BRU and BBB just because I found that they both had such different things. Most of my big items are from BBB and most of my toys and smaller items are from BRU. I registered for Born Free Bottles.

Same! It took long enough to do register at one place.
