Thats not girly at all I think its great

 

[Courtney917]

That looks nice TTC! Not feminine at all! I had same problem with DS1 and got off white furniture with a jungle theme. Once I got it all set up it came together and looked great! Im doing same with this baby but going with light green....very pale and either creme or brown curtains. I'm sure the room will look great once you have it all set up!!!

 

[Sass827]

I don't think it looks feminine either. We were planning on doing a jungle theme if we had a boy too.

 

[TTCBean]

Thanks girls... it makes me feel better to get your input. My sister said to me just now she doesn't like any of my theme, wth! I thought what I picked out looks cute in a baby boy way... I don't see baby boys as "masculine" (if you know what I mean?) so I think it's okay to do more soft tone and not just automatically big manly things.

I compiled some of the major stuff and put it on one file... https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v34/Bryanna666/71580nFei3L_AA1500__zps648e951d.jpg
I'm going to the paint store tomorrow to try to find a nice brown to match everything for an accent wall, most likely the colour of the brown giraffe on the quilt.

Thank you to HopinAndPrayn for the giraffe... it was just what I was looking for to fill in an empty space near the crib. Hope you don't mind me copying...

I love it TTC. I think it's definitely a little boys room.

I was so convinced Bee was a boy that I had an awesome Pixar room planned.

I think now we're going to go for Disney Princess, but not in commercial, bright pink, stuff you always see way.

I'm a Disney addict so we're going to make some nice artwork from different movies and I want to buy toys of all the sidekicks so its more like Little Bee is the princess and she has all the sidekicks.

We'll probably just get plain bedding etc as I find all the Princess branded stuff a bit too much for a baby.

I am going to have to buy these bits from the Disney store though:

And I this I want to hang over her crib in our room:

Deffo not grily at all Hunnie.. It's hard to see how everything looks untill it's all put together

For ds1 I had turqoise walls and some car stick arounds...

Ds2 I had the mamas & papas Millie and Norris range, which is cream and beige with a rabbit and teddy bear..

This time I've gone for the mamas & papas linear zoo range.. Which is the same colours, but it has zoo animal prints and abit of orange and burgundy so slightly different... But it's one of those ranges, that can be made more boyish or slightly girly.. I've gone for off white furniture. can't wait to start on it next year x

Don't mind at all! Love it in our nursery and happy to share

 

[Hann12]

Love all the nursery ideas!

We are having a jungle theme for our nursery too, figure it's pretty gender neutral. Some lovely ideas on here.

Cupcake - cute Disney stuff! My DD's room is butterfly themed, my wedding was also butterfly themed. Once she's older she can change it if she wants though!

Back at my parents for Christmas now so won't be on a great deal until I get to the inlaws in a few days time - you can all be my escape!!

Oh and I've had to defend my cloth nappy choice twice today because my mum thinks its stupid and why would I want to go back into the old times with cloth when such modern inventions as disposables are out there, and did I realise there would be poo on them!! Lol!

 

[MightyMom]

Oh TTC, that is not girly! I can't believe someone would tell you they don't like what you are picking out for YOUR nursery. Like she will be the one seeing it everyday?! Sheesh. I love the giraffe theme. For DD I thought she was a boy and was a bit disappointed at our gender scan. I don't think I ever got over it because a lot of her nursery stuff I originally picked was very masculine. I re-did it though and it ended up being pretty girly.

Well this LO will not have his own room in our new house, so I won't get to do much of a nursery. He just gets a little nook that will fit the crib and changing table. I guess that's best anyway. He's too small to know the difference. But DD will be getting her own room that has a HUGE closet. We've painted the room "Frostwork" which is like a very light mint. I'm going for a ballerina theme. I want to buy some accessories from the Glenna Jean Isabella collection and some artwork to make it a bit of a sophisticated ballerina theme.

 

[BabyMay]

I love all the nursery ideas. We are all def nesting! Haha. Merry Christmas to everyone. I prayed for all the little babies we are carrying at church today, thinking of next Christmas us all having them in our arms.

 

[jtink28]

i was laying on the couch watching football, and my husband had his hand on my belly. kiddo decided to give a couple huge kicks, and my husband got to feel them! so exciting. what a christmas present

 

[TTCBean]

You girls always make me feel better, I am glad you like my nursery idea and don't think it's girly! I started painting today!!!! I am so happy and excited, I really love my nursery!

 

[Babee_Bugs]

[CupcakeBaby]

Another night that I'm wide awake at 2am starving.

Having some toast.

I wonder if I'll see Santa if I'm up tomorrow night.

Another reason I'm awake is my left nipple is SOOOO itchy. I don't know what to do with it!!!

 

[jtink28]

cupcake, that's happened to me. last night i woke up at 2am, and didn't get back to sleep until 5am!

i have a jar of vaseline by my bed, and i put a little on my nipples if they get super itchy. also, i have some cocoa butter too that i've used!

 

[CupcakeBaby]

Glad it's not just me jtink.

Meant to say - lovely news that your DH felt baby.

Bee is certainly getting stronger so hopefully DH can feel her soon. Xx

 

[kezziek]

Ooh yes itchy boobs are driving me mad at night I keep forgetting to buy some cream to use after the shower but I do have some vaseline I could try.

Hope you are all ready for Christmas and have nice plans?
We are having a fairly quiet day with just christmas morning church service and the in laws round for the day. We are making dinner though so that could be interesting as it's only the second year I've done it. We are just giving the boys their pressies to play with and then doing another big day boxing day with the rest of the family (in laws aunties and uncles) so looking forward to that. Then we have my family round for tea the following day. So it's like a three day affair this year lol the boys and I will be worn out.

Got to clean the house today but so sore and achy, really struggling to find the motivation....xxxx

 

[poppy13]

Sounds like everyone is getting festive!

DH felt our little boy move for the first time yesterday morning & again last night. He was so excited!

Happy christmas girls! Xx
