Today's project and first nursery picture (brace yourselves for more over the next few weeks):

I put his crib together all by myself! :]

Aman, that looks wonderful! I really like the colors.

Aman- I'm so in love! It's so cute and adorable I really love the yellow. What a fun change from just blue. And dayum lady great job putting it together yourself! I'm so bad at this.

Feel free to add more! I love seeing nurseries or outfits or gear and all that stuff!

Overly organised but not quite there yet :O

aman - I love the nursery pic!! Love the yellow and the bedding set

ginge - great pics!! You are so prepared!! I need to get organizing all my baby stuff. Hubby still needs to put the dresser together. Going to wash the baby bedding today and hopefully set it up.

Having it everywhere drives me absolutely crazy, if it needs a place it will be, I still need to find a home for some inserts that aren't in the nappies and some stuff that's piled on top of the drawers, drives me nuts.

ginge - i have stuff everywhere too! I really need to organize one area for it all to be. That way it not all over my house!

 

[campn]

Ginge, you're all set hun!

I haven't washed her clothes at all yet, just been stuffing it away in the closet and dresser. Maybe I'll just wash NB and 0-3 months clothes for now.

Have you ladies bought diapers yet? (The ones who will use disposables) I keep thinking I need to buy a few boxes but then I never do.

 

[mari35racz36]

campn - I have been thinking about buying a pack or 2 of diapers lately. But I still haven't. I know I should get some soon just for my hospital bag.

Wow you ladies are prepared lol.

I emptied one toy bin last night and put some of my oldest sons clothes in it - they're storage drawers - which left a little bit of space in the babies room. So tiny bit of progress? ha. Need some giant garbage bags to clean out that room

 

[MummaMoo]

I've bought a few small packs of size one nappies, will get some more in the coming weeks.
A nursing top and dressing gown for the hospital bag arrived today, got some nursing bras on their way too.

Am loving all the pics!!

I still need to put together the moses basket stand, wash the bedding for it and make a space for it. Considering getting a second one so have one upstairs and one down, save having to move it every day.

 

[ajarvis]

mumma did you buy the bedding separate? I have a moses basket, but with boy bedding. Was hoping for something more to match the colors I want in the nursery, but finding just the bedding is proving difficult!

Wow, you ladies are prepared! Love the pics.

This weekend I plan to take off Friday - Monday for North American weekend (Canada day is July 1st and US independence is July 4th) and prepare. My mom and I found a whole bunch of things, from the practical (multi-packs of onesies) to the adorable (giraffe, lamb, and elephant themed clothes, blankets, and sheets). And I have a bassinet, so I won't have to clean out a drawer for him to sleep in

Now I'm just waiting for the furniture to arrive. They said the latest should be early August, which back then sounded early. Now I'm starting to freak out. I read something online about a woman whose order was lost from the same company! I'm going to call tomorrow to check up on it and then ban myself from google completely starting August 1st.

I also have to go to the mall today, and so thought I would check out nursing bars/nursing nightgowns. Right now, I'm straining my B-cup bras, so I guess the nursing bras should be C cups? Does that sound right?

 

[x-ginge-x]

I have an upstairs and a downstairs but my downstairs is an old carrycot off a pram its plastic and more stable haha



I have a Rottweiler so I like the sturdiness of this! dopey dog bumps everything

 

[x-ginge-x]

Stupid iPad won't let me upload more than one image

He's 9 years old almost but he has no control over his butt and I know he would knock a Moses basket so easily, this is solid and doesn't move X

 

[x-ginge-x]

My nursing bras are two sizes up from my normal cup size to allow for the first few days engorgement I was boobzilla the first time around!

 

[ajarvis]

rottweilers like to wiggle their bums instead of their tails Looks gorgeous

xan for nursing bras I have one "XL" right now - I'm usually a c/d cup. and I'll wait until baby is here to buy more. It'll be different when your supply is establishing and then when it's established. I do wan to try and invest in nursing shirts this time around to make it easier.

 

[campn]

I've reached the point where I'd be in deep sleep then I'll get kicked and wake up. It's only going to get more and more painful from now on!

I also need more nursing bras, I've only a couple but they're so worn out (thread is coming out lol) I want to be done with 95% of everything by 35 weeks cause that's when my body is like "f*ck no."
