What to Expect When It Isn't Expected: Helping Mommies Everywhere! Issue 4 June 2014 | Page 7

How can I keep my partner involved in creating the registry?

This is a great question which was asked by you and by a girlfriend of mine. When my husband and I went to create our registry he let me choose almost everything because I am the one home with our baby using everything. He didn’t realize at the time that he needs to know how to use the products just as much as me. I still did what I could to keep him involved and make it just as exciting for him.

When should I create the registry?

The beauty of the registry is you can add to it anytime or take away from it anytime you like. You can start it at any point in your pregnancy. Most women wait until they are in the clear with their doctor or midwife. Once women are safe to tell everyone is usually around the time to start registering.
