BABY REGISTRY ITEMS I ACTUALLY USED - PART I!! When I was pregnant with my first baby, I felt so much pressure to build the perfect baby registry. I read every blog post, compared endless lists, and ended up with way more gear than I ever actually used. Now that I’m a second-time mom, I can say with confidence: babies don’t need nearly as much as the internet (or big-box stores) make you think. Every parent, baby, and household is different, but there are a few items I reached for over and over again—things that truly made life easier and felt worth the space, money, and hype. If you’re creating your baby registry and wondering what’s actually essential vs. what ends up collecting dust, this list is for you. These are my tried-and-true baby registry must-haves as a second-time mom—the products I loved, actually used daily, and would recommend to any expecting parent. LTKFamily LTKBaby LTKBump
