Not decorating nursery until baby is born? 😞

Question

Hi everyone! I’m loving seeing all the nurseries y’all August mamas and daddies are putting together! 💗
My husband and I are planning on moving when our lease is up in December, so he doesn’t see the point in decorating our son’s room at all, because we’re moving 6 weeks later. I understand, but it still makes me pretty sad.
Any ideas on how to compromise?

Answer

Could you paint/decorate furniture for the nursery? That way it comes with you. And maybe get picture and artwork for the walls? Xx

Answer

Is bub going to be in your room in a bassinet at first anyway? I'm afraid I agree with your hubby 😅 
My first was in our room for the first 4+months. I need to repaint the spare room for this ones nursery but there's been a lot of other work going on so I'll just do it before they're too big for the bassinet.
I like a previous posters idea though: you can do lots with just furniture, a few artworks and blankets/cushions  which will all come with you when you move

Answer

I feel the same. My lease is up August 21st, but I’m moving August 1st and my due date is August 11th and it bothers me so much that I can’t set up a nursery for my babygirl yet. I have been buying things for her nursery though

Answer

I'm in the same boat; possibly moving the month baby is due so I set up a little corner in our bedroom in the same style. I painted the dresser though, and repurposed items we already owned like a mirror and some boxes for storage.

Answer

Our nursery furniture is back ordered till mid September so the only thing we’ll be doing ahead of that is cleaning out the room. I haven’t bought anything yet so I’m pretty unprepared

Answer

I won’t even have a nursery 🤷‍♀️

Answer

We are moving the last weekend in May but that gives me 2 1/2 months to get everything ready. I still feel bad about it because I had my daughter’s room done by this point. Honestly though she didn’t use her room until she was about 3 months old- we kept her in a bassinet next to our bed.
