So hopefully by the beginning of the year. I want to give our animals a chance to explore the new surroundings, make sure everything is ok with the crib, and help set it up before I get too big. :) lavender on "when did you set up your nursery furniture?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-set-up-your-nursery-furniture#post-23761 Tue, 29 Nov 2011 13:47:38 +0000 lavender 23761@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I'm due at the end of March. We just ordered her crib and started painting the nursery last week. We will probably do alot more setting up after the holidays, like Jan-Feb.

I think we were gradually setting up furnitur/decoratingfrom 3 months on.

Then we'll probably let it sit for a week or so to cure, and I'll start around 32-33 weeks setting it up. autumnlove on "when did you set up your nursery furniture?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-set-up-your-nursery-furniture#post-23147 Mon, 28 Nov 2011 15:46:13 +0000 autumnlove 23147@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We painted our nursery and set up the crib and dresser in September and we are due in December. Our furniture is not protected by dust right no2 Artsy Butterfly on "when did you set up your nursery furniture?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-set-up-your-nursery-furniture#post-23138 Mon, 28 Nov 2011 15:33:12 +0000 Artsy Butterfly 23138@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We set up our crib right away---we bought it really early because it was on sale and hubs set it up while I was at work one day. I am a little sad he did it on his own, but it was a nice gesture. We haven't done much else for the nursery though since we are getting it recarpeted soon. Hopefully, we'll get things finished in January, Mrsbells on "when did you set up your nursery furniture?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-set-up-your-nursery-furniture#post-23112 Mon, 28 Nov 2011 15:07:17 +0000 Mrsbells 23112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Thanks for all the responses! For those of you who did set up the furniture early. Did you keep it covered to protect from dust?

We just don't have the space in our tiny place. ecogirl on "when did you set up your nursery furniture?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-set-up-your-nursery-furniture#post-23007 Mon, 28 Nov 2011 13:33:01 +0000 ecogirl 23007@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @artbee I knew it was happening but honestly they don't care for me much (they act fine towards me but cold) since I didn't come from the upper crust :) So they said it was their gift to us and I felt that it would be rude of me to say no and it would be detrimental to our relationship to put up a fuss. Sigh. Not only did they not ask my opinion but they pretty much picked things they knew I wouldn't like, haha :) heffalump on "when did you set up your nursery furniture?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-set-up-your-nursery-furniture#post-23001 Mon, 28 Nov 2011 13:30:58 +0000 heffalump 23001@https://boards.hellobee.com/ @ecogirl: wow! Like you said very generous but you'd think they'd ask your opinion first. Did you know this was happening and you didn't say anything? We moved when I was about 8 months preggo, but the nursery was one of the first rooms done. Except the crib. We waited until after she was here to set that up because my hubby is superstitious, and she was in a bassinet at first anyway. banana on "when did you set up your nursery furniture?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-set-up-your-nursery-furniture#post-22996 Mon, 28 Nov 2011 13:27:44 +0000 banana 22996@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I couldn't decide on a nursery theme so I waited and waited and waited. I prolonged it for so long that we ended up no decorating it all, which ended up being a blessing in disguise because we we realized that we didn't really need to decorate the nursery. They grow up so fast that we skipped the nursery phase and decorated his toddler room. We saved a lot of money in the process. junebugmama on "when did you set up your nursery furniture?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-set-up-your-nursery-furniture#post-22985 Mon, 28 Nov 2011 13:22:31 +0000 junebugmama 22985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We are actually in the process of looking for a new house. I may not have a nursery set up until after the baby is here :( cyndistar3 on "when did you set up your nursery furniture?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-set-up-your-nursery-furniture#post-22982 Mon, 28 Nov 2011 13:19:02 +0000 cyndistar3 22982@https://boards.hellobee.com/ For my daughter I didn't set her stuff up until about a month before she was born because we moved. This time, hopefully we will have moved into our house a couple months or so before baby is born so we can get things ready sooner! ecogirl on "when did you set up your nursery furniture?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-set-up-your-nursery-furniture#post-22946 Mon, 28 Nov 2011 12:52:22 +0000 ecogirl 22946@https://boards.hellobee.com/ This is a sore spot for me as my in laws hired a decorator to do everything and pick everything, even the colors and then let me see the nursery right before I went in for my c section and it wasn't what I would have picked. :( They are generous but I'd rather they keep their money and allow me to just set my own childrens rooms up as I'd like.

The reason we haven't done it yet is money :) prettylizy on "when did you set up your nursery furniture?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-set-up-your-nursery-furniture#post-22943 Mon, 28 Nov 2011 12:49:16 +0000 prettylizy 22943@https://boards.hellobee.com/ we set ours up EARLY. We got it used for a really good price, and didn't have anywhere to store it, so I was about 8 or 9 weeks and it was all put together in the nursery. loveisstrange on "when did you set up your nursery furniture?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-set-up-your-nursery-furniture#post-22937 Mon, 28 Nov 2011 12:40:00 +0000 loveisstrange 22937@https://boards.hellobee.com/ We got our crib in Friday and are going to set it up this week and I'm due in March. We weren't anticipating receiving it this early though. We thought it was going to take longer to deliver. pelikila on "when did you set up your nursery furniture?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-set-up-your-nursery-furniture#post-22898 Mon, 28 Nov 2011 11:48:28 +0000 pelikila 22898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Ours was set up when the furniture was delivered because it was complimentary to have it setup so it was about 8 weeks before my EDD.

Anyway I was wondering if its too early to set up the crib and dresser since I am due in April 2012. But I dont want to just leave it in the box because then I wont realize if something is wrong with it until its too late. How soon did you set up your nursery furniture.
