My mom convinced me to skip the bassinet stage & just put the crib immediately in our room instead of the nursery. She said babies don't fit in bassinets long, especially ours because bf & I both had really long legs. The nursery has to be upstairs so we figured this would be easier until we feel safe putting baby alone in a room. Luckily our bedroom somewhat matches the bedding! The nursery will be more of a light teal rather than a green. Team green, by the way!
