for us, it would have been don't spend too much time arranging because the cheeky monkey detested his cot & only slept in it for about a month

i found that for the first weeks (maybe up till around 8-12 weeks), i kept a duplicate of all change things in our lounge room. i fed DS in the lounge room on the couch, had the pram with bassinet in there for day sleeps & also changed him there. it was mid-winter though & we just have an oil heater in the lounge so i kept DS where it was warm. it was also nice to be able to watch tv or read a book/mag while feeding on the couch.

i think it's great to have something you can sleep on comfortably in the same room as the baby - and maybe even feed lying down after a bit. it makes it a lot easier to deal with nightwakings if you don't feel like you're actually having to get up.
