Setting up a baby registry is such an exciting part of pregnancy, and there are some essentials you have to put on every registry: a crib/bassinet, diapers and wipes, clothing and bedding, bath supplies, bottles, pacifiers, toys, etc. But depending on the season your baby is going to be born in, there are some specific items you’ll need to put on the registry. In the winter, you’ll need warmer clothing and heavier lotions, in the spring you’ll need rain protection, and in the fall you’ll need lots of clothing layers. Here are some summer baby registry must-haves:
1. Momcozy CoolFit Nursing Bras

Expecting parents often fill their baby registries with tons of baby products – but it’s important to add mom products, too! For any mom who is planning to breastfeed or pump, a few good nursing bras are essential. Whatever your lifestyle, the new Momcozy CoolFit Nursing Bra collection has a great option. The Ultra-Stretch Bra is comfortable and stretchy, making it perfect for everyday wear. The Racerback Bra offers the same comfort, but with more support for light movement and activity.
A good nursing bra should make breastfeeding easier, and these bras do just that. Both bras have five rows of hooks (and extenders) and one-hand clasps for comfortable, easy breastfeeding. Made with innovative cooling fabric, the lightweight bras are perfect for summer, so anyone expecting a baby in the warmer months should add these to the registry.
Lightweight Sleep Sack/Swaddle

Kyte Baby is known for its buttery soft sleep sacks and baby clothes, and this Sleep Bag Swaddler is no exception. Made with hypoallergenic bamboo rayon, this 0.5 tog sleep bag is breathable and comfortable for warm weather. The design is perfect for newborns and young infants because it combines the brand’s classic sleep bag with a soothing Velcro-closure swaddle. Once your little one has outgrown the swaddle, simply remove the swaddle wrap and use the sleep bag alone.
Breathable Clothing


Figuring out how to dress a newborn in the summer can be hard: You want to make sure their skin is protected, but you also want to make sure they’re not overheating. Little Planet by Carter’s has a super lightweight organic cotton gauze that’s great for infants. It’s really soft and comfortable, and it’s perfect for warm weather. If a romper isn’t your style, the company also has jumpsuits, dresses, two-piece sets, and overalls.
Portable Bassinet

If you want a safe place to put your baby down while you’re spending time outside, a portable bassinet is a wonderful choice. The Fisher-Price On-the-Go Infant Dome is both a portable bassinet and play space. It has an adjustable canopy, which provides some sun protection, and it has removable toys to keep your baby entertained. The best part is it folds flat and has easy-carry handles.
Baby Sunglasses

Infants have sensitive eyes, so keep them protected from the sun’s rays with an adorable pair of sunglasses. Babiators has a variety of styles and colors for babies and toddlers, and they’re all made of a safe and durable material.
