Is a nursery really necessary?

Question

Answer

Yes, my baby slept in his crib since day one. We all got a lot of sleep. He is 9 months now and sleeps 12-14 hours. We go in his room and read books, rock in the chair and then he goes to bed.

Answer

It doesnt need to be a full blown crazy set up like Pinterest pictures but personally it is very necessary. I originally planned to put mt girl in there at a month but after talking to some people i am keeping her in the pack n play until 6 months. Then she will go in her own room. It is extremely important for parents to have their own, kid free space to decompress and be themselves.

Kids and parents both need their own personal space

Answer

I think it depends on the family. My first slept in her room from a week old, my son after 6 months. I don't really go all out in decorating a nursery it's just their room to me. Their bed, clothes, all their stuff is in there so I don't find that useless.

Answer

It depends on the person. If you choose to cosleep then not really. But if you don't then yes. I obviously plan on having our son in our room for a little bit but I plan on putting him in his nursery as soon as I can and also when I'm home and I'm awake doing stuff around the house he'll be in there because it's closed off and we have 3 dogs so it'll be a little quieter in there.

Answer

When I was born my mom put me in a dresser drawer they had pulled out and set on the floor. Their first house had a living room that was attached to the kitchen and one bedroom and bathroom. Once they got me a crib it was in the living room. Kids don't need nor care where you put them. Nurseries are beautiful but they are for us parents not really for the kid.

Answer

Did one with first and it was so useless. Baby rarely was in it nor did I change diaper in it ended up being storage. So never again.

Answer

Not at all!!!! I have a nursery and the only thing we use it for is diaper changes and getting her dressed. She's 8 months old and has yet to sleep in her crib. We should've just saved money!!

Answer

Around the world it is not common to have so much space per person! Also current recommendations from American Academy of Pediatrics is to keep baby in parents' room for 6 months at least to reduce risk of SIDS.

Answer

We aren't having a 'nursary' as such. It will be the little ones room until age 10?? if not longer. We have a cot that changes into a bed, the only thing we will need will be a new set of draws/wardrobe when older so our 'nursary' is a their room

Answer

My first born stayed in my room until he was almost 2. Same with the other two. No need for one. It was easier to have them in my room.
