Why Should I Use Amazon’s Baby Registry?

While there are a lot of baby registry options available, you might be wondering what makes Amazon the go-to for expecting parents. Well, some of these reasons include;

  • Free returns: You can return a product if you’re not satisfied with it and it’s free for the first 90 days after purchase
  • You get notified when anyone purchases an item from your registry
  • Amazon is huge so you can get any type of baby supply you’d possibly need at cheaper prices even
  • It’s a universal registry so you can add items from other stores
  • Get the items shipped directly to your address without even sharing it with your friends and family
  • Add other items that might be helpful like things for the baby’s room
  • Get a 10-15% discount on the unbought items in your registry
  • You’re eligible to get a welcome box from Amazon (t&c applies)

  • Fill out the form displayed with your preferences, especially the gift options. This is because here, you can sign up for the diaper fund, allow group gifting for expensive items and even gift cards where they can send a gift card instead of purchasing the item themselves.

  • Once you’re satisfied, tap on ‘Create My Baby Registry’
  • Add items to your baby registry list by tapping on the ‘Add items’ section. You can also add them directly from the Amazon website when searching for items.

Depending on what you’ve set in your share section, you can either share the link with your close network or ask them to search for it on Amazon. Over time, if you want to transfer the ownership or personal information to your partner, you can change the name, email and other details on the settings page.

Can I Have More than One Baby Registry?

Absolutely. If you already have an existing Amazon baby registry or you want to make a more private one, you can always create a second baby registry especially if you have another kid on the way. Here’s how to do this; 

  • Visit Baby Registry
  • Go to the settings page 
  • Scroll to the end of the page and tap on ‘Create a new Baby Registry’
  • Fill out the same form and share it with your friends.

However, please note that both registries cannot be active at the same time. So if your previous baby registry was still accessible to the public, it will automatically become inactive once you launch the new one. 

Should I Use the Checklist Feature?

After creating your registry, you’ll see a checklist button located at the top menu. Here, you get a sort of guide with recommended items to help you prepare for your baby. This section allows you to choose items across 12 categories and multiple sub-categories.
