One of the most exciting jobs for the expecting parents is setting up their baby’s nursery.As soon as you get the good news, you start planning to create a perfect place for your precious baby. You want to have everything that can make your baby safe and comfortable. And it is understandable to become overwhelmed in this process. The first question that pops up in your mind is when exactly should you buy your nursery furniture and start setting up your nursery. Don’t worry! Babymore is here to guide you through this.
We have made a general timeline for you to follow.
Choose your nursery theme or design and decide your budget by the end of first trimester (12 to 13 weeks). At this point all you have got to do is research. Look for what type of nursery you want to create? What is the theme and colour scheme you want for your nursery? What furniture pieces do you want to have in your nursery? What is the amount of money you are going to spend on all of this?
Planning this early is going to give you enough time to find out what you really need in your given budget. This way you will also save yourself from all the impulsive buying whenever you’ll see some adorable but impractical item for your nursery.
If you don’t have a nursery theme in your mind and want to learn about the latest nursery trends , here is a blog for you by Babymore.
In the second trimester decide what pieces of furniture you would want. A crib or moses basket for your baby to sleep in for the first few months? After 6 months do you want a cot or cot bed for your baby? And which one do you want? Think about where you want to store your baby’s clothes and other accessories. Which wardrobe and/or chest of drawers do you want ? All these decisions should be made in the early second trimester.
If you are confused about what pieces of furniture you really need, here is a blog for you about the nursery furniture checklist by Babymore.
By the end of the second trimester you should place your orders. This way you’ll have enough time and energy to assemble and set all the furniture in your baby nursery without feeling too rushed.
This is the time when your orders would have arrived. In the 3rd trimester ( 28 weeks onwards) you should assemble and install all the furniture pieces. After this point your energy might start declining so it’s better to get all the major things done by now. This way you won’t have to rush into things and will have some stress free time to rest before your baby arrives.
If you are thinking about which is the best part of the year to find exciting deals and sales on nursery furniture and other items for your baby nursery, there are some seasonal trends.
It is great if your second trimester coincides with the holiday season, you can get big items like cots, dressers etc at a reasonably discounted price.
Some brands offer mid year or summer sale on their nursery furniture. Be aware of the ongoing or upcoming sales so you can save money.
Remember, it’s worth waiting for the sales if they are coming up but don’t wait too long and risk missing your favourite key items.
Be flexible in your plan.It is totally okay if you are behind the timeline. Ultimately the best time to buy the nursery furniture or set your baby’s room is when you are ready. It’s okay if you don’t have everything sorted out weeks or months before your baby’s arrival. Babies need love, care and a comfortable place to sleep, everything else can be adjusted as you go.
