I remember when I first had to make my baby registry, it was such a daunting task and I didn’t know where to start. There are so many places to create your baby registry now: in-store, online, boutiques, etc. How do you know which one is best for you?

I have narrowed down the 4 best places to create your baby registry. I used two of them and I was so happy that I did.

It seems like only yesterday that I was 9 months pregnant and about to pop. In reality, it was almost 2 years ago! I still remember how scared and nervous I was when they admitted me to the hospital. I am so thankful that I had some wonderful nurses to help me through it all. They were amazing!

One nurse in particular helped me a lot. She talked me through everything and gave me so much support. She gave me some much needed encouragement when I felt like I couldn’t do anymore. I am so grateful for her just getting me through those moments until I got to meet my beautiful baby girl. I even nominated her for the hospital’s “Thank you” awards that they had. I still wished that I could do more to show my appreciation.
