Hi ladies! I have been looking at this Nursery thread for months now, it has given me great ideas. yesterday was the 1st time I really looked at the baby store. I have a 2 bedroom apartment and for the first 6 months I want to keep the baby in the bedroom with me for health reasons. I was thinking of getting both a cradle (can be used until they are 6 months/35 lbs ish) to put in my bedroom and then a mini crib (which converts to a toddler bed) for the nursery (the door on the nursery is actually 1 wall that slides all the way open so its really like part of the living room if I open it). This way when the baby is napping during the day I don't have to keep running or staying in the bedroom? I can be in the living room. What do you think????
Sounds good to me... sounds a bit like our nursery.
We're having the baby in a moses basket or the family crib/cradle next to our bed first. And then when he's big enough we'll have him in a cot in the nursery, but our nursery is attatched to our bedroom, with double doors which are always open at the moment.... And I can see the cot from our bed. So we can keep an eye on him from our bed![]()
How did you manage to stay out the baby store till now?????As soon as I found out I was pregnant I just got drawn to the baby shops... I just HAVE to go in there even if I've been in there a week or couple of weeks before..... I can't help it... haha.
ooh, thanks. I did some more research and most cribs only go to 20-25 lbs so hopefully that will last till baby is almost 6 months as a crib will not fit through my bedroom door. It would need to be assembled/disassembled every time. I am dying to do my nursery but my parents won't let me (tradition - not to bring anything home until after birth). But since we don't live in a place that is used to people who do that and cribs take 6-8 weeks I am going to start shopping soon and just ship it to my parents apt (they live in same apt building) and keep it in boxes
