Not finished outfitting everything yet but I think ours will end up about $2000-3000. Splurged on a second hand Stokke cot and change table $980. About $500 on Babu linen and blankets - another splurge. I haven't got any drawers yet but will probably get something from Ikea if needed and make space on existing bookshelves for plenty of small fabric storage cubes. Not planning on any fancy decals or wall art, might just get a couple of framed prints down the track when baby is big enough to appreciate them as we'll probably move house by then. The only thing I'm undecided on is a breastfeeding rocker/glider. Currently will probably just try and make do with some combination of our old couch, poang and fitball. Not sure if it counts as nursery but we've bought a second hand stroller under $200 and I'm not game to add up how much I've spent on a second hand ergo and several woven wraps (I'm classifying them as part of my wardrobe so they don't count :-D) Sister in law and I are making a baby gym mat (although I doubt it will be any cheaper than a bought one with the indulgent fabrics we're likely to choose). We've been lent a baby bath and a 0-6 month car capsule by close friends which will save us heaps. And I'm looking for a second hand baby bouncer/rocker/swing but that should be under $50. I'll put off buying a breast pump till I see how breast feeding is going since I think I'll either wean when I go back to work at 6 months or spend a fortune on a double electric pump if I decide it's worth the effort of trying to keep going.

I'm sure we could have done things much cheaper. (I'm still amazed I managed to talk DH into the Stokke cot when an Ikea one would honestly have worked fine.) Equally I'm sure you can spend a lot more if you get a whole furniture package and decorate all your walls. It all just comes down to personal taste. I'm pretty sure we'll all remember what these nurseries look like far more than our children ever will.
