One of the most exciting tasks when you are pregnant is creating your baby registry! It can also be one of the most daunting and overwhelming depending on your personality. I’ve put together a new baby checklist to help you keep track of what you want and need to buy for baby here. Before you even begin to get things together, you need to decide where you want to create your baby registry. There are many options out there, which can make your decision a little harder initially. Every registry has its perks, so I asked real moms what their favorite baby registries. This post will tell you the best baby registries and why moms loved them.

Here are the best baby registries ranked by moms:

Target

Target was the clear front runner with 49% of the vote.

Moms loved: the welcome package, the ease of adding items from the store and online, the fact that Targets are easily accessible across the country, and the experience of shopping in store.

Kristen said:

Target was easy and fast to do. I found everything and if I needed any help, the employees were quick to find and eager to assist!”

If you don’t already have one, a Target REDcard is a huge asset for any parent! You get 5% off of every purchase that you make. That includes Up&Up diapers and formula, which are by far my favorite store brand of both.

 

Amazon

Amazon came in second with 22% of the vote. As far as online registries went, it was the definite winner.

Moms loved: the completion discount, the welcome package, the ease of shopping online, the thank you card feature, and the wide selection of products.

Natalie from Mama Doing It All said:

I did it there for the great completion discount. I also like the larger variety of items to choose from. And, it’s nice to be able to use my free prime shipping to send gifts to out of town mamas-to-be, or when I can’t make their shower”

 

Babies R US

Babies R Us was close behind Amazon with 20% of the vote.

Moms Loved: the vast selection, the option for friends and family to order from the website, the knowledgeable staff.

Moms didn’t love: some friends and family didn’t want to make a special trip to Babies R Us and a lot of the selection was less expensive to purchase from Amazon, Target, or Walmart.

 

Buy Buy Baby

Buy Buy Baby came in with 6% of the vote. The store got a lot of the same comments as Babies R Us, but doesn’t seem to be as commonly used.

 

Other mentions for best baby registry were Walmart for being a friend and family favorite along with Elfster and Babylist for the ease and convenience of their all online registries.
