Five Reasons Why MyRegistry.com is the #1 Destination for Baby Registries

Starting a baby registry is one of the most exciting things you can do to prepare for your new baby.  You are able to hand pick the gifts you wish to receive like diapers, crib bedding, clothes and more.  If this is your first baby you will most likely need just about everything.  If this is your second baby or beyond, you may have hand-me-downs that you can use which means you won’t need to register for much.  Whichever baby it is, I recommend you create a registry to make it easier on your friends and family who choose to shower you with gifts.

Disclosure:  This post is in collaboration with MyRegistry.com.

Rather than run around town signing up for multiple baby registries, I suggest you register with a company like MyRegistry.com.  Better than Amazon, MyRegistry.com is a premiere destination for baby registries that gives users the flexibility to choose items from any store in the world.  Seriously!

Watch this short video to see what I mean:

1. SYNC YOUR REGISTRIES
MyRegistry.com allows you to sync other registries (i.e. Giggle, The Land of Nod, diapers.com, Amazon, Target et al.) and keep all of them organized onto one universal gift list. Synced registries are automatically updated each time you login to your registry or when somebody visits. Your friends and family will only need to go to one place to buy your baby’s present.

2. CASH GIFT FUND
You can tastefully register for cash with MyRegistry.com. This groundbreaking patent pending service allows members to customize their cash funds for any use. The Cash Gift Fund lets the purchaser give money towards the baby’s college fund; building a nursery, diapers or other essentials. This feature is also alleviates the burden of asking for cash as a gift.

3. GET INSPIRATION FROM OTHER EXPECTING PARENTS
MyRegistry.com features pages of gifts chosen by other registrants in real time. You can get inspiration from the gifts added by people in the same situation you’re in and may discover items to add to your registry that you may never have thought of. MyRegistry.com also supplies inspiration boards with hundreds of ideas for items that can easily be added to the registry.

4. TOOLS SUPPLIED TO ANNOUNCE AND SHARE YOUR REGISTRY
You can send beautiful eCards announcing your registry or enable friends to send eCards on your behalf. MyRegistry.com also allows you to customize your registry’s URL, share your gift list to all your social networks — or go the traditional way and download and print beautiful registry announcements to add to your shower invitation.

5. ADD ITEMS FROM STORES WITHOUT WEBSITES
While in any brick and mortar store, moms and dads can scan any product’s barcode to add items to their gift list with their Smartphone. One scan of the barcode and the item instantly appears with photo and description on your registry. In addition, parents can add items from stores with a photo, description and notes on where to purchase the item.
