We're living with no nursery at the moment, waiting on extension to be finished, although had planned to have bub in with us for at least 6 months.
We have the change table in the lounge room and cleared the hall cupboard/coat cupboard and put the cheap wire stacking baskets in there for all of bub's things. The lounge room is pretty chockas with baby things, toys, bouncers, rockers etc but it's working for now. Bub didn't like the bassinet so from 2 weeks we ditched it and fully co sleep, no room for a porta cot in our room.
