Prefolds as burp cloths. I had 2 dozen and could have probably used another. In a similar vein, boppy changing pad liners so I didn't have to wash the changing cover every time it got poop on it.
Ditto prefolds as burp rags/changing table covers. Cute burp rags were cute, but if you get a spitter, they're just not absorbent enough. A+A blankets MAM pacifiers Rock & Play or sling chair
RnP Baby Connect app Activity mat Little Remedies gas drops A+A muslin blankets Nuk pacifiers (only ones she would/will take) Dr. Brown's bottles
When she got a bit older- Kick N Play piano Taggies floor mirror (this was what got her lifting her head/pushing up on her arms during tummy time instead of screaming with her face buried in the floor) Little Einstein King Neptune activity center Sophie the giraffe Nosefrida

Chicco car seat and Keyfit caddy stroller (snap n go). I have a tiny trunk, and this fit perfectly, and was so easy to use.
Also a fan of the My Little Lamb swing (big ass FP swing, goes both directions) and Snuggabunny bouncer.
Boppy changing pad liners. They come in a three pack. We had them on the changing table, on the pack n play changer, and now we use them when we change DD on the floor. They're great!
K'Tan wrap (Would not have survived without this, for many weeks it was the only place she'd reliably sleep) Activity mat (we have 2 - a basic one and a Kick n Play piano, she loves both) Wubbanub A+A blankets Brest Friend pillow Small waterproof changing pads for living room diaper changes Links Oballs and crinkle books are good first toys
Snuggabunny Swing (she slept here pretty much exclusively for 4 months) Activity mat (we have the Kick n Play Piano b/c DD LOVES to kick) A+A Burpy Bibs (I also have a ton of the Gerber cloth diapers as burp cloths, but I LOVE the Burpy Bibs) Boppy (I'm the weirdo who didn't like the My Brest Friend) Links A Lamaze crinkly toy (we have Freddie the Firefly) Saline drops & Nosefrida
Many that have already been mentioned (Rock n Play, FP snugabunny swing and bouncer, Kick N Play Piano, A&A blankets) and also the B-Safe car seat and B-Agile stroller- it is so convenient to snap the car seat in, and I like the stroller for even after he's out of the infant seat.

White noise machine (de-tuned regular radio) Baby swing VIDEO MONITOR (I thought this was silly when we got it, but seriously it's the best and I could never do just a sound monitor now) Night light (baby was afraid of the absolute dark)
Ditto a lot of the PP - RNP, snugamonkey swing, wubbanub, A&A blankets.
I didn't realize how great the RNP would be until we used it. It's so portable and easy to move around and it doesn't take up much space. We traveled with it, used it outside, she slept in it next to my bed for 3 months - I am a RNP evangelist, LOL.

Rock N Play bassinet (not the original inclined one) Boppy Newborn Lounger Motorola MP33 (or something like that) video monitor Gerber pre-fold cloth diapers (great as burp cloths, brought them to work to keep my clothes milk-free while pumping, etc.) HALO Sleep Sacks (DD never cared to be swaddled) Uppababy Cruz stroller (can be used with newborns with the Infant Snugseat accessory) Aquaphor for diaper rash and any scratches or dry skin Oxo wipes dispenser Booginhead pacifier clips
And it's not something you can register for, but super helpful was/is Diapers.com because you get free overnight delivery when you spend at least $49.
