Just moved the post to General Pregnancy. :-) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-are-you-preparing-for-babys-arrival#post-6082 Mon, 24 Oct 2011 21:35:20 +0000 littleveesmommy 6082@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mr Bee - can we move this to General topic? I'm looking for some ideas from other mom-to-be's who are preparing for an arrival without a separate room for nursery. Thanks!</p> <p>@Katdevargas - no need to apologize! I'm interested in everyone's suggestions. It's nice to read how other moms are prepping. I am trying to find efficient storage solutions for the baby's stuff and eliminate any items we can do without for now. So far we won't be having a changing table or crib - a large waterproof changing pad and the arms reach bassinet should work fine until baby gets bigger. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-are-you-preparing-for-babys-arrival#post-6028 Mon, 24 Oct 2011 17:33:28 +0000 katdevargas 6028@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>and sorry, I just saw that you posted this in the jan 2012 boards, my bad! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-are-you-preparing-for-babys-arrival#post-6027 Mon, 24 Oct 2011 17:32:09 +0000 katdevargas 6027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm due at the end of feb/beginning of march 2012 &amp; have had a registry of idea items in place since we started ttc! To prepare, we've really not done just a whole lot yet. I'm definitely feeling the bug to start organizing &amp; just *purging*, though, &amp; we made a start this weekend with our huge, entirely too full closet, so I guess that's something?<br /> we've also been craigslisting a bunch of our higher-priced items &amp;, thankfully, been able to find a bunch of stuff on there to buy now at a deep discount. we've gone back &amp; forth about a nursery - the baby will definitely be in our room for the first few months &amp; we might be moving in june/july of next year, so baby will probably be with us until then at least. but, I think that we are going to be moving our office out into our main area, the guest room into where the office was, &amp; put all the baby's junk in the guest room for now. It's still up in the air, though </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-are-you-preparing-for-babys-arrival#post-5848 Sun, 23 Oct 2011 18:50:00 +0000 littleveesmommy 5848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am due at the end of January and feel like the prep list is growing faster than I can tackle! We just started cleaning out closets / dressers to make room for baby's clothing and supplies.<br /> What have you done already to prep for baby's arrival? </p> <p>The baby will be sharing the room with us until we move at the end of 2012 (sad that I don't get to decorate a nursury yet...)so tips from any moms in the same situation would be great. </p>
