Registry Essentials-Recommendations?
I know this has been posted before, but I couldn't find much when I did a search...
For those of you who are new mommies (or BTDT mommies), could you please list the items you registered for that were the most useful?
I am going to register in the next few weeks, and I am more than slightly overwhelmed. 
Thank you!!!

Re: Registry Essentials-Recommendations?
These were things that came in handy with my son and I am hoping that they will come in handy with dd this time around....
swing
bouncy seat
boppy
i will think of anything else...but those 3 things helped me a lot.
I think for the little things, like bottles and bibs and stuff like that get what you like the most. Dr Brown's bottles were good in the beginning and then I switched to Avent.
