We put the furniture together when I was about 34 weeks but it wasn't until Friday (36 weeks!) that the cot and cradle were actually clear and ready for baby. Until then they were both covered in mounds of clothes!
Clothes all now folded and put away, beds both made up and ready for arrival.
You hear that, little girl? Ready for your arrival! *pats tummy*
Hmm haven't even picked up the cot yet (a friend has it) but we have a cradle and a hammock here but neither has been set up yet also! I'm 34 weeks, so better get a move on. It's just too hot to do anything this week - hears hoping to no early arrival!!
Actually, I just remembered - we set everything up at 35 weeks but it wasn't all finished until about 37 weeks because their was a faulty part in the cradle box and it wouldn't fit together with all the other pieces. We had to take it back to the baby store and it took them 2 weeks to get the new part organised for us. Lucky we didn't have the baby any sooner or it wouldn't have had anywhere to sleep! But that is another argument in favour of doing it sooner rather than later
Good point Townsvillegirl! My cradle is old and have been used by 4 babies (including my friend's son hehe). But I bought a Target cot not long ago, I hope everything is in the package. I better check.
Well I will think of you on the 13th March then Alioops....hopefully it is a good day for me too...find out what sex this baby is!!
