I fell in love with the Wendy Bellissimo CHerry line they sell exclusively at BRU. I figured that when the room was ready for the nursery, I would order the furniture, likely around 5 months. Well, I was at BRU last night and spoke to the sales representative and found out they are blowing out the whole Wendy Bellissimo line and will stop selling it after Monday. The set typically costs 1600, with the clearance price and an additional 15% off BRU is running it would only be 1100.
So, my dilemma is, if I want it I need to order it today. BRU is the only carrier, I looked. The pros are I love the furniture, have not seen anything I like nearly as much, and would get a great price. The cons are it is much earlier than I planned, the nursery is not ready so will the furniture will be sitting in our spare room a bit and what if (god forbid) something goes wrong with the pg? Any advice?
I posted this on the Nursery Decor board too but wanted to post it here as well since I need to figure this out today!
Re: 12 weeks - too early to order nursery furniture?
I would buy it but that's me. Once you are 3 months your risk of losing the pg goes down considerably.
I'd get it if you really love it.
Not too sound too pessimistic but something can happen at any time. Friends of our lost their baby on their EDD.
If you love it, I think you should buy it!
I guess you just have to be optimistic that everything will be ok
I bought some furniture that early with my first pregnancy and just tucked it away.
i would order it if you're going to save a significant amount of money. ?just don't set it up immediately. ?that way, you can store it while you get the nursery ready.?
From what I've been told some nursery furniture takes a while to come in anyway, it's not like going to the store and just picking it up.
If you love it and feel it's a great deal and have shopped around for other items you might love just as much, then buy it and when it comes in, stick it in the garage and pretend it's not there until you're ready for it. Even have it shipped to your mom's or mil if you don't want to have it in the house.

I would order it. Even if something happens, you are going to need the furniture eventually and it's what you want and a good price.
You are nearly out of the major danger area, so I would say that there is almost no difference between ordering furniture now and ordering it in several weeks.
