Baby carriers are often gifted as hand me downs. They are usually used longer than other baby items which means people hang on to them long after they have gotten rid of other baby items. We ended up with 7!

Blankets are a go to baby gift. Not only do they hold up and make great second hand gifts sometimes people will make craft them custom for your new addition!

Whether you ask for these specifically or not, used baby books will be given to you by the dozen. We asked for help building a library and ended up with so many fantastic books!

Babies, especially new borns, don’t actually need that many clothes. But, people love to gift them! I suggest registering for 2 simple packs of onesies (newborn and 0-3). After that, wait and see what you get before buying a bunch of outfits!
