Baby registry ideas

I’m putting together a baby registry and would like ideas on some of the smaller items. Can you recommend any must-haves for baby’s first year?
First time mom here, so other than swaddle cloths/blankets, bibs, bottles+bottle warmers, onesies etc I don’t have a very good idea of what’s needed!

Boaster chair…its not expensive at all.
I never used the bottle warmer but a bottle drying rack was quite handy.
A baby bath tub or/and chair, again we went with simpler ones.
Bath hooded towels…initially I had 3 but ended up getting 5-6 more.
Multipurpose changing pads…I still use them with my toddler as needed.
A crib/mattress pad…our mattress is still new…diaper leaks, all you have to do is change the sheet and pad.
100% cotton fitted sheets.
We love our diaper pail, we went for something very simple around $20.
Baby grooming set

Re. baby bath tub - is that something you used right away or after a few weeks/months?

Re: Baby registry ideas

My mother gave bath in the first month and used it. I used the bath foam for month 2-3 and then moved to tub.
