AunJelle's Baby Registry

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"One Size-fits 6-35lbs babies, long lasting, and naturally prevents diaper rashes and irritation by ensuring only organic cotton materials are touching baby's most sensitive areas. Infinitely washable, reusable, and customizable to each child. Package of 6"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Doublers are ultra-absorbent additions to cloth diapers for when you need the diaper to last longer than normal- Sunday church, a family outing- and can be used with any size cloth diaper. Asking for a dozen pack :)"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Seeking this pack or any secondhand bundle of Nora's nursery diapers. There are a bunch always on Facebook Marketplace, ebay, Mercari, and other resell sites. Buying secondhand is even better economically and environmentally, saves money, and gets to help another family selling their diapers."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Nora’s Nursery has some great, affordable products with adjustable sizing. Please consider a gift card to help us get the diapering needs covered in a way more friendly to the environment than using and throwing away thousands of disposables :D these are well made and will last several kids and can be handed down to another family for more years of use."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"A gift card to my favorite diapering supplies company would help us fill in any gaps or diapering needs after we get started. We might find out we need more pre-folds or more absorbers, or just need different sizes as our baby grows. Please consider a gift card to help cover these needs :)"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Medium prefolds for cloth diapering that will be used around ages 4-20 months. Asking for two to three dozen. That plus the rest on the list and the few already acquired from Facebook marketplace will cover cloth diapering for the whole time we’re using them, and can be used for years and multiple children."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Perfect newborn kit. Any boyish or neutral color option preferred. If unavailable, no worries. These cloth diapers are great for when baby is born and has the umbilical stump. The covers button down to avoid rubbing until it’s ready to fall off. The prefolds are smaller to fit newborns until they can fit size small."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"College backpacks are bigger and can have more pockets than most diaper bags, with a lower price. This one is quilted and soft, water resistant, and green :) i like green"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Asking for any cloth diaper-friendly diaper cream that will not damage or affect the absorption of the cloth diapers over time. If this is unavailable, other brands are fine."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Small bag for two to three used diapers for short outings, Sundays during the hours we're at church and coffee hour, and other events. Enchanted pattern preferred, others fine if out of stock :)"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"For reusable wipes on the go. Hazel green flower pattern is favorite but others are fine too"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Waterproof bag for used diapers while we're out"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"basket will hold liner for cloth diapers. Used diapers require some airflow to prevent bacteria growth and smelling. This basket with holes and a light lid is perfect! Replaces a diaper pail"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"liner for the laundry basket that will hold used diapers between washes. Liner is a great replacement for disposable plastic liners, and will last years and multiple children."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Reusable wipes made of natural organic cotton are gentle on babies' bodies, can be wet with a spray bottle to desired dampness for cleaning, and are endlessly reusable and washable. Asking for 2-3 dozen to last a few days between washes, and they will be used for many years and multiple children."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Disposable wipes to be used for times when the reusable ones will cause a headache (in the case of traveling, sickness, etc.) One big box will last us months depending on how often they are used."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Small (yellow stitching!) size works the first few months of baby's life after the newborn size, and he will be ready for the next size at around 15lbs. Eco-and-budget-friendly diaper inserts protect baby's skin from plastics and endocrine disruptors. Cloth diapers save thousands of diapers from going to the landfill which take hundreds of years to decompose. Asking for two to three dozen: the whole registry stash, plus what I’ve already got from Facebook Marketplace, will be enough to last us a few days between washes and will be used for multiple children."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"yellow/gold one with bells please I just couldn't find a picture :D"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"can be any sensory table, doesn't need to be expensive, I just clicked and added the first one I saw so I didn’t forget."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"This is such a great toy for open-ended play, imaginative play, vocabulary learning, colors, animals, and so many more things. A great safe toy recommended by speech therapists and OTs :)"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"This can be stuffed with the colorful scarves or socks or pom-poms for babies to practice picking the objects out."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Imaginative, open-ended toy for kids that is used to build motor skills, imaginative play, learning colors, and more."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Covers like these, any color, one or two. If you have one but don’t use it I’d love to try it out."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Very comfortable breastfeeding pillow, if you can get it secondhand in good condition, do it! If new, I like this pink one- thanks!"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Size XL 5.5" please"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"These are great for teething and introducing new flavors. I love to put broth in these."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"for restaurants and traveling when there is no high chair.m. Several available secondhand on FBM"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"To keep my milk supply up ill be trying to pump often, especially if I'm ever way from the baby. Milk pumped on the go or while traveling can be added to this cold thermos to keep it cool. The thermos also can keep milk cool if baby needs to be bottle fed by someone else for any reason (date nights, visiting family etc)."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Any color, secondhand is great!"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"medium size to be used after he outgrows the swaddle"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Safe and convertible car seat for when baby outgrows his infant seat. This one has great safety features. Love the no-rethread harness and headrest adjustments, and washable cover."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Safe place to put baby down for parents' quick showers and bathroom breaks, cooking and cleaning tasks."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Second seat base for Blaine's car :)"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Please consider a gift card of any amount so I may pick a woven wrap from Oscha Slings, which is a Scottish company that makes wonderful, well made, small batches of baby carriers and other accessories. There are so many beautiful options which change every two weeks, so a gift card would be great for helping me pick one out. This is the company that makes the Lord of the Rings and the Hobbit themed wraps that are so epic and last for years."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Another carrier from a size-inclusive brand Hope&Plum that will be good for when the baby is very young. Ring slings are a great tool to avoid back pain as they dont have straps that can cause tension in the shoulders. The 84” carrrier will fit both of us but AunJelle is more likely to use this carrier. Code MIA10 by @plussizebabywearing will get you 10% off but usually they have better coupons on the website. If this color happens to be sold out, the plain green pattern called “Palm” or one of the other plain colors are great too! (just no pinks, please :)"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Hope and Plum is a size (and tall husband) inclusive brand that makes great carriers that Blaine and I can both use. We need the “long” size as extra strap length will accommodate us both. Use code MIA10 for 10% off by @plussizebabywearing on Instagram unless the website offers a better coupon (they usually do!) We will absolutely need this for church Saturdays and Sundays and for family outings, traveling, and doing chores around the apartment. Having a good carrier that will fit Blaine comfortably will make all the difference in sharing the load of parenting. Thank you :) (These carrier colors tend to sell out, so if this color isn't available, any solid color except the pinks will be just as good.)"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Any cute hooded towels are great, secondhand, too. Just need a couple, maybe two or three."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"This one is a selfish ask but a nice rocking chair would be loads of help for my physical health and recovery after birth. This one has a lower back heating function (vital for when shark week returns) and the massage function! 😮 This is going to be so helpful to battle tension and soreness and soothe chronic pain. The gentle gliding function will be vital for nervous system regulation and getting babies to sleep. It’s a well made chair that looks like it will last for several years (and multiple babies). Our apartment living room is too small for a couch. Right now we just have one armchair, and it’s not enough seating for both of us to use the living room. This chair would allow us to have family time together and get some sunlight from the patio windows."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"To accommodate the baby and his crib, AunJelle has to donate her bedside table and bookshelf on that side of the room (bye-bye lamp). This little mushroom light looks great for waking up at night, has red light setting to not disturb sleep cycle, and is small enough to sit on the ledge of the headboard, no table required. Also, it's a mushroom- how cute!"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"motion sensor warm toned lights for dark areas where tripping and falling is possible, one for the laundry closet which doesn't contain a light and is impossible to see inside without a portable or phone flashlight. We will be doing a lot more laundry after the baby is here."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"We don’t have room for a dresser or added furniture so these will store baby clothes, toys, sheets, blankets etc. I like the pockets on the side that can hold small things like the nail clippers and bottles."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Any and all sizes 0-12 months of footless zipper onesies wanted. We will live in these for a while, especially when it starts to get cold in the fall. Secondhand appreciated"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"0-3 months if baby is normal size. 3-6 likely needed if baby is gigantic like his father 😂 Just the gown needed, we don’t need the personalized towel. Eventually we want one of each size gown and can baptize all of our children in them."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"0-3 and 3-6 month sizes needed for nice church outfits. This wish is for 3-6 size!"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"0-3 and 3-6 month sizes needed, these look great for church. I'll make a different wish for each size. This one 0-3!"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Large"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Size XL Busty"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Size 1/2X"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Size 1/2X"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"For making recovery baths and treating restless legs, sore muscles, swelling, etc."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Electrolytes are vital for maintaining optimum hydration in postpartum and breastfeeding"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"We want to use the balcony for lots of playing, outdoor time, outdoor kitchen, and getting fresh air. However, all of the toys and tools will be dropped/thrown off the balcony if its not protected :D"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Sprayer to wet reusable baby wipes, for homemade laundry stain sprays, homemade orange peel vinegar cleaner, etc."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"An alarming amount of secondhand furniture, dishes made overseas, antique china, BABY TOYS and even baby bottles contain lead in the paints and glazes that could leave family members vulnerable to exposure and lead poisoning. I want to make sure everything I bring into my home is safe for us and new baby boy. Try cognition41 for a 41% discount on the test kit from the creator of this kit, whose mission is to end lead poisoning."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"We all had books that were our absolute favorite growing up, and it feels so special to share the love of that book or author with a new family. Please feel free to pass on any extra copies or grown-out-of books to us- we are so grateful and excited to read with our baby!"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"We all know that babies grow so fast and may only get to wear clothes a few times before they no longer fit. If you have any baby boy clothes you need to hand down, please consider us as recipients. He’ll probably be a big guy who grows fast too, so he likely won’t need any newborn size clothes and would probably jump right to 0-3 and quickly into 3-6 months. He’s going to be born in summer so any lightweight items are so appreciated. Cold weather items in 6-9 months will be needed later, so please keep us in mind if you’re cleaning out closets and drawers. Thanks eternally ❤️❤️❤️"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"Hobby Lobby gift card will allow me to buy a couple yard of their flannel fabric to make my own reusable wipes which get softer with use and washing, and maybe some baby decor for the baby's corner of our bedroom. HL has some adorable, inexpensive felt garlands that would be so fun to put above the crib :D"

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"I have hired a doula and a midwife for my unmedicated birth to help with coping strategies, movement, massage, encouragement, and medical help should the need arise. We would appreciate any help toward the fees for these two professionals as they help us safely and peacefully bring our new baby into the world."

Note from AunJelle and Blaine:

"$99 Kroger premium membership would allow for grocery delivery in this first year of baby. This would be a huge way to make sure we have what we need as a new little family. Going all the way to the grocery store can feel like climbing a mountain, and so can carrying all the groceries up the stairs to our apartment. Having access to the grocery delivery feature would be a life saver ❤️🙏🏼"
