    I am 21 weeks and have kind of started. I havent gone and bought big ticket items but alot has been given to us so its already int he baby's room. I love going in there. I just need to find a cot I like. It is too hard to decide.

    Are you doing a theme? Have fun

    We bought our nursery furniture at 19 weeks and set it up almost straight away (couldn't help myself) Since then we have just been adding bits and pieces as we see them. We have also been given HEAPS of stuff which is great.

    Hint: sometimes its easier to start with something major ie. furniture, theme or colour scheme - and then let everything else flow from there.

    Happy Nesting!

    I started setting up the nursery around 20 weeks and have only just finished. I find myself spending a lot of time in there these days reading books and what not

    I put my layby on after the 19 week scan and am hoping to get it all out the first weekend in November! Other than that DH gutted out the wardrobe and renovated it with the wire basket system thingo once I got my tax cheque, cause that paid for the renovation. Other than that I have nothing else other than some clothes that people have bought me. Ah thats right DH bought bump 2 goldfish last week and I set that up in his room. So he has 2 pet fish even before he is born.

    I'll have a couple of months to get stuff together before 'Pikelet' is born
    I have alot of hand me down things left over from my daughter so I think Ill be right. I am thinking of grabbing a bassinette so bubs can sleep in it in which ever room we are in ! Oh and I think ill have to grab a new change mat , but the rest of the other things are in storage. My sister is pregnant too so Im going to lend her the cot that I used with Cierra

    I started setting up my babys room at around 20 - 22 weeks while i could still lift certain things. I have most of it done just waiting on my cot that will be here for xmas ( i hope ) but we are in no rush bubs is sleeping in a cradle in our room to start with, so we are taking our time.

    If it makes you happy sweetie, then it's never too early - no matter what anyone else thinks
    We just moved and so re assembled all of the big stuff we had in storage. Then all the other paraphernalia got chucked in there. I'm waiting for a weekend to myself to just get in there and play.
