The Copy & Paste Baby Registry
When it comes to baby registry lists, the most common question is usually, “What should I put on my baby registry and what should I skip?” So to make this whole registry thing easier, I’ve created The Copy & Paste Baby Shower Registry.
This guide is filled with the most useful baby shower gifts — with a focus on eco-friendly & natural when possible — using a combination of my own experience with 4+ kiddos, the needs of expecting & postpartum clients, and online recommendations from parents throughout the U.S. Whether you’re a first-time parent, adopting or expecting again, this guide was created for you — simply send it to friends & family instead of spending hours searching for the right items online.
All items in The Copy & Paste Baby Registry were reviewed to ensure we’re recommending quality items. This guide also includes affiliate links and discount codes. (We only sign up to be an affiliate for companies we already recommend.)

Pregnancy and postpartum come with a lot of not-so-fun things that disturb your sleep like restless legs & cramps, back & hip pain, and nighttime wake-ups. This creamy US-made lotion includes 100% organic ingredients to help mamas get more restful, deeper sleep.

Earth Mama Toiletry Gift Set
Earth Mama Organics’ eco-friendly package includes 5 mini cruelty-free products perfect for a Babymoon, daily use, or the hospital birth bag — a mini citrus deodorant, orange belly butter, Castile body wash, belly oil, and orange ginger lip balm.
Lilu Massage Bra
The Lilu Massage Bra gently mimics the compression of hand massage to help moms get 30-55% more milk out each pumping session — all hands-free. Lilu is created by a female-led, BIPOC team hoping to make the world an easier place for new moms.
Deluxe Cordless Electric Breastpump
Crane’s Deluxe Cordless Electric Breastpump mimics baby’s sucking motion, is super quiet, and offers dual modes to make using it a breeze. Definitely look into this pump for the mom going back to work soon or who simply wants to start storing milk for other reasons.
Crane Lactation Massager
If the new mama doesn’t plan on pumping or needing a whole bra to help massage the breasts for a letdown, check out Crane’s Lactation Massager. It’s great for helping to move milk along or even for use on sore muscles during labor!
Complete Postpartum Prep
It doesn’t matter if this is the first baby or the fifth, there’s a lot that changes with each birth, and a lot that’s unknown to most mothers. The Complete Postpartum Prep online program equips moms with education and resources so that she already knows what to do when she’s in postpartum.
All The Baby Things
BOB Alterrain Stroller
From a height-adjustable handlebar, UPF 50+ canopy, simple quick fold, 5 storage pockets, a smooth ride, and a sleek metal frame it’s no wonder BOB strollers are a parent favorite whether they participate in Fit4Mom or not. It’s also a cinch to assemble (which is huge).
Hope & Plum Ring Sling
Ring slings are simple-to-use, compact carriers that also double as a nursing cover, spit-up rag, baby blanket, and more! Hemp ring slings can go in the water and hold heavier tots as well, but Hope & Plum offers free private consultations to find the right ring sling for each family’s needs.
Yogasleep Nod
Yogasleep’s Nod sound machine with a soft dimmable nightlight includes a variety of pink noise sounds (about 20) and sleep timers so that everyone can get a restful sleep.
Little Green Sheep Quilted Moses Basket
Moses baskets are versatile and lightweight sleepers for babies ages 6 months and younger, making adding one to the list for use in the bedroom, living room, or at a relative’s house a must. This Little Green Sheep Quilted Moses Basket at Scandiborn comes complete with an organic mattress for a safe and natural sleep start.
Infant Massage Education
Infant massage helps parents and babies sleep better, connect more, and feel less anxious. It has also been known to reduce body tightness and pain in babies, reduce gas and colic, and boost mood. The gift of an on-demand virtual infant massage class will last the new family for years as they continue what they’ve learned as their child grows.
Little Dutch Memory Box
Sometimes keeping memories together is a lot easier than creating a baby book with every little moment and milestone written down and photographed. The Little Dutch Memory Box at Scandiborn helps families cherish the big memories for their little one to look at in the future. Everything from special notes, that first lock of hair, and foot & handprints are kept safe.

The perfect option for eco-conscious families who want to keep the number of plastics low. Mason Bottles also function as durable mason jars to store breastmilk, formula, baby food, and more!

Omni Breeze Carrier
Ergobaby’s Omni Breeze is a fantastic carrier for both daily use and outdoor adventures because it has SoftFlex™ mesh fabric for maximum airflow. I always recommend having a few babywearing options since different members of the family have their own carrier preferences (and when/where you babywear may decide which you use).

This basket is jam-packed with 14 products to help new parents keep their baby clean and comfortable — from their sweet bubble bath and body wash to diaper wash, Calendula cream, diaper ointment, sunscreen, and hand sanitizer! And it’s all plant-based, cruelty-free, and allergy-tested.
