I hope you change your attitude before that baby comes along!!! Let me tell you something you are a selfish ungrateful human being!!! You need a huge wake up call! I really ought to copy and paste this and send to everyone of your freinds!! Maybe you just will not have no one at this shower!!! How,would that suit you!!! But I am not like that unlike you I have morals. And I certainly would not want to deprive your child because you are a selfish human being.
This is literally the MOST ungrateful thing I’ve ever read feel lucky you have people who even want to contribute to your baby. I have a close friend who just had a baby shower and borderline EVERYTHING on her registry was over the top expensive and I couldnt afford to buy almost anything on there so I bought what i could afford and she was grateful. A registry is a wish list, not a “must have or else the sky is falling” list. And if you’re THAT particular about what your child HAS to have, maybe you should consider being in a position of not needing others to contribute financially to you before having a child
What an ungrateful piece of work you are. 1st of all a registry is used as a guidance as to what you may need secondly People give what they can afford. If you want what you want please do yourself a favor and cancel your babysitter and just buy the stuff by your damn self
This is so entitled and ridiculous. You make a registry as a way to make purchasing items easier for people. If someone would like to get you something else that’s perfectly fine. May I remind you that this is a celebration for your baby and people don’t need to get you ANYTHING at all.

Maybe all of your items were too expensive and what they got you was all they could afford. You should learn to be grateful
This is the most ignorant status I have ever seen. Not everyone has the money to buy all the specific items you want but still may want to get you something then there is people like this that make them feel like complete shit.

I usually add a gift receipt when I gift people! Hopefully people will do that for you. I’m also very picky about what my child wears but I’m also very grateful when people gifted us when he was born. The gifts didn’t matter as much as the celebration of life…
Yes you’re very wrong.
In my opinion if you are going to have a baby… you have to be able to buy the stuff YOU WANT or LIKE on your own! Don’t be so ungrateful! People sometimes buy what they can afford! 
My daughter in law did not get to have her baby shower being as having complications. My husband and I ended up getting most of what she needed because the ones who were supposed to go sent nothing.
Dear lords. If those are your pregnancy hormones I’d hate to see what your normal ones are 
Stop being ungrateful and accept what people give you. Not everyone has THAT kind of money. You want something specific for your child then go and get it and stop waiting on handouts. That should be the first thing you learn about parenthood.
No baby showers are to celebrate, not to receive gifts… got a tone of specific stuff you want? Get it yourself 
. If you don’t want people to come baring gifts that isnt to your taste or what you need. Ask that they only bring themselves and that’s it
Yes you are wrong. I didn’t even finish reading this post the moment I seen “should” “think” and “registry”
A baby shower is a gathering where you celebrate the life in you. People can choose to bring gifts or not. It’s not about what you want from the gift. If you’ve created a baby shower only specifically to get gifts then you missed the whole point of an actual baby shower. You are the host. You’re asking these people to come to your event. Gifts are a way of the guests saying thank you for even inviting them and they have thought about you in the process.

Wow. Yes lady you are definitely wrong. A baby shower is not to “save you money” it’s to celebrate your baby. It’s not about what gifts you get. When you have a baby you should be able to afford all of the big necessities. Especially the mattress that your child will sleep on. If your reason for having a shower was to not have to spend money on your child then I am sorry to burst your bubble, but you signed up for 18 years of spending money.

I’m not sure I’d say you’re wrong, but you come off as entitled and ungrateful. A registry is a great way to give people ideas of what to get you, but you can’t police the generosity of your guests. Be thankful for what people choose to give you. Also, if those gifts you didn’t register for come from seasoned mommas, you might want to keep them. Chances are they know what you really need.

Sometimes people put some expensive shit on their registry that should be up to them to buy. A changing table, a specific trash can, a mamaroo are not essential to a baby. Diapers, wipes, bottles, clothes and all the regular shmegular shit people buy for baby showers, are.
A gift is not something anyone is entitled to there for people should be able to buy what they want if they want. If you think that’s rude then in youre in for a rude awakening

Wow … where to even start with this one!? … the whole thing from start to finish is pretty rude😳
You think the sole purpose of your family and friends coming to celebrate you/baby at your baby shower is so they can bring you the gifts you requested? And should they come with something not on your registry you’d get upset about it?..
Accept the kind things you receive from the people in your life and be grateful you have that support system.
Oh and here’s a thought - if you’re not going to be grateful for the things others do for you, you could always shut up and do it yourself.

I get what you’re saying I think. If you’re meaning like you put a specific baby crib mattress on your registry and they get something different there could be a reason you wanted that specific mattress so that situation maybe yes ask for the receipt but I would never feel comfortable saying hey you got the wrong thing can I get that receipt so I can return it and get a different one. Or if you wanted a specific car seat but that person decided to get you a car seat and it wasn’t the right one that could affect a lot. In those situations I understand where you’re coming from but not all the way around. Every baby shower that I had I got things that I didn’t necessarily like but I still appreciated the gift and the thought that people put into it.
Yes you are wrong and sound rude as hell too.

I always thought it would be a good idea to do gift cards and an outfit or toy. You get the fun giving something you wanted to and the parents have the gift of a security blanket… Need diapers but you’re broke bc maternity leave has left you with only 40% of your pay? BOOM gift card. Need formula? Gift card. Need Monkey Butt ointment for sudden diaper rash? Gift card. One size fits all and fills whatever need arises. I know some people think they’re too impersonal but they saved my butt in the very beginning 
I have never seen someone get a mattress at a baby shower what the heck?

A baby shower is to celebrate the new child and it’s life. This is actually pretty rude. I put no gifts on my invites because the whole point is to celebrate the baby. I’d be thankful for anything because it’s no ones job to provide for the child except the mother/father

I personally neevvverrrr expected any BIG items such as that! It’s just as lovely to even receive 1 gift. We all have lives, kids, family to feed, bills to pay, things to do. So honestly I say be appreciative someone at least even wants to go to your baby shower and by your kid anything. As parents we are responsible to make sure our kids have everything they need. The baby shower should just be a plus for extra clothes, diapers that you might need.

Yup you are wrong. I purchase off the registry if I can afford the item. Or if it’s an item that I love that I think you may need. You are welcome to return it but otherwise I can buy you a $400 crib or a $200 car seat
New mama? Seems that way… Believe me you’ll learn to appreciate the things people gift you and that “mattress” you want or the “bottles” you want you’ll either go without or buy them yourself. The point of a registry is to let others know what is needed. Some will buy from it, most won’t. Most probably cannot afford the things you HAVE to have. Just be grateful that others are buying anything for you or your baby.

If there are specific items that you think you NEED and won’t accept a substitute, then buy those things yourself. Don’t expect people to buy everything that’s on your registry. Most people shopping for a shower gift you things that worked for their babies or things they find cute. You should be grateful that your friends and family want to celebrate YOUR BABY. that’s what a shower is for after all

They are gifts to you and your baby. If you don’t like them, then buy what you originally wanted. If you don’t want to spend your money accept the gifts you are given.
and if you ever had kids youd learn the baby chooses the bottle not you. and a baby will sleep on a blanket on the floor if need to be they arent picky about mattresses and if they even use the baby bed at that. The child even chooses the formula, brand of diaper and wipes. Not the parents. Apparently this must be your first child
