I have set a few things up, the crib is in there and some shelves... but really that is it. It is killing me! Only 14 weeks so I know we have time but, I want to get really setting it up now!
When did you start actively setting up/planning your nursery?

I started planning ASAP, and we have done a few things like paint, install a new light and put shelves up. I'm 9 weeks - but nursery is the thing I'm most excited about cause I love decorating! 
my sister keeps saying we won't have anything left to so when I hit 4 months

I started daydreaming very early on., decided on a theme when we found out the gender, cleaned out the room at around 22 weeks, and now we're painting and decorating now that I'm 26 weeks. I imagine we'll be done when I'm around 30 weeks or so.

I couldn't actively set up my nursery until..... 8 1/2 months. We moved then, so I couldn't do anything before. But I would do DIY artwork and stuff to keep me busy and keep me sane starting from 20 weeks when we found out the gender.
I wouldn't let myself start any planning until after 12 weeks because I had a miscarriage before, so I wanted to hit that point before I could relax a little.

I'm going to have to do most of the big stuff before 20 weeks (painting, furniture) since my husband will be traveling for work during the summer.

No LO. I started planning potential nurseries as soon as we started to TTC!

Thinking about? Right away? Doing? Well, I am 27 weeks and the room is still not cleared out! DH and I have been very busy with school and work, and we need to sell some guest room furniture (which is finally listed on CL) before we can begin...but things have been bought, are ready and waiting! Gah. I need to get on it!

I'm 21 weeks and we haven't even cleaned the room out yet. We have everything picked out but are waiting until we get our tax return back before we start purchasing. I am anxious to get everything set up though!

I'm 5 months on Thursday and we still don't even know where we're going to be living when LO arrives.
We're still waiting to hear on the condo we put an offer on, and although I'm sure we'll end up in a 2-bedroom somehow, I don't think I'll make the extra bedroom a whole nursery. Maybe a guest room and we'll have a some of the baby's stuff in our room--a nursery nook, as it were.
Honestly, I haven't thought about it much at all, but I have bookmarked some of my favorite mini cribs and regular sized cribs for when I do finally know where we're going to live.

I'm planning, but not actually buying/decorating or anything until we know the gender. That being said, I find it hard to believe that I've made it until 16 weeks without buying a single thing!

Started planning after we found out the sex. Didn't start setting up anything until 35 weeks since that is when we moved into the house.

We did some of the big stuff like pain, crown moulding etc pretty early on because I didn't want to have to do it in the heat of the summer.
