Re: Anyone want to share their registry?

Honestly, I didn't read a single book. I went to BBB with a mommy of twins (I'm expecting twins) and a new-mommy (b/c she was up to date on the safety ratings, etc.)

I let them scan away, and with the big items (car seats, carriers, strollers) - I tested each item out.

With the toddler car seat (after growing out of the carrier) - I went w/a Britax with head-support.

With the carrier, I went with the Chicco Nextfit 30 b/c I could snap it out of the car and out of the frame stroller VERY easily. I tried the Britax and Preggo and needed a third arm (literally) -- too many buttons and a pull that I couldn't maneuver easily.

With the double stroller, I went with the Britax Agile B b/c it had more storage space than the City Mini and had an adjustable handle-bar (I'm 5'2" and it felt a lot more comfortable in a lower position.)

Otherwise, all the other items were based on style/preference.

Here are my registries (I have a lot of clothes from hand-me-downs) and I'm not BF'ing -- going w/formula and using the Playtex drop-ins (w/twins I'm not spending time and energy when I could be sleeping on washing/sterilizing bottles!)

PB Registry - just blankets/decor items/nursey bedding:

BBB -

BRU - b/c BBB isn't convenient for my friends/family that live here in Bklyn
