1st Trimester

If this is your 2nd, 3rd, 4th...ect.

Are you going to decorate LO's room like you did for your previous children?  I've been thinking about it and I highly doubt it althought I really didn't do too much to DD's room.  It's just purple with pictures on the wall. 

And if you have a baby of the opposite sex that what you have...are you going to buy the matching crib sheets, bumpers, quilt?  I'm definitly not doing that.

  • We have beautiful bedding sets for both a boy or a girl, so I will just use one of these...whichever one we end up needing.

  • If #2 is a girl, I'm going to completey remodel the current guest room just like I did for #1.  Yes, I probably will buy a matching bumper and sheets, but prob not a comforter.  We'll see.

    If #2 is a boy, we'll be remodeling the current guest room for DS's "big boy" room and then putting baby boy #2 in Carter's nursery.  I love that nursery to peices, so it would be great to have #2 (if it's a boy) in there as well!

  • this is our 2nd and we plan on putting him or her in the same room DD was in when she was a baby . . she is now in her big girl room . . it will probably stay the same color and I will just make it a little more boyish or girlish . . depending on what we are having . . 
  • We're not finding out if this one is a boy or a girl until delivery, so I'm not even worried about decorating until after the little one is here.  He or she will be in our room with us for at least a couple of months, so DH will paint after he or she is here. 

    We are going to re-use Zachary's crib sheets and white breathable bumper.  I probably won't buy an expensive bedding set - we never used Zachary's!

  • If another girl, we might reuse some of DD's crib bedding.

    If a boy, we will do a new room theme for him.  Although the "bedding set" is a waste of money in my opinion.

  • Either way we'll be decorating the room for the baby.  DD's room isn't very babyish and it will carry her through childhood.  We'll also do a room for this baby that isn't babyish and will be long-lasting.

  • If we have another girl we will move DD into the other (bigger) bedroom and give her a more big girl room and use her room now as the nursery for baby as is. If we have a boy we will leave DD in her room, and then make the other room into his room... we probably will not buy the whole matching crib set again (such a waste!) unless someone else buys it for us - with DD my MIL bought crib and bedding set.
  • DD will be moving into a larger room with her big girl furniture.  We are not finding out the sex this time either, so more than likely we will use the same gender neutral bedding that we did for DD.  The only changes to the room will be pictures of the new baby but I'm thinking everything else will remain the same.

  • With DD we lived in an apartment, and could not decorate at all! This time around boy or girl, we will decorate with everything. That is something that I always wanted to do in DD's nursery, but never could.

  • If it is a boy we will keep everything the same and DS will move into a big boy bed.  If a girl we will change almost everything probably.

  • If #2 is a girl we will redecorate our guest room for her. If #2 is a boy, he will share a room with DS.

    We really want a girl, but if we have a boy, we'll save SO much money.

  • I plan on decorating DS's "big boy" room and then moving the new baby into our gender neutral nursery. I wanted something gender neutral for this very reason.

  • DD#1 and DD#2 each got their own special decorated rooms. This time around I think it might be different. If it's a girl I'll probably keep the paint color and bedding and just change the accent /decor pieces because DD#2 will take hers to new bedroom from nursery. If a boy, we may redecorate.
  • #1 and #2 each had thier own rooms decorated with all the bells and whistles. by the time #3 got here we were out of rooms. SO I decorated an area in the baby room for her- with her own bedding and a few decorations on her side of the room. NOW with baby #4 s/he will be in my room for a while so DH and I have decided to decorate an area in our room with a new bedding set as well.

    Each of the kids have really nice quilts that were part of thier bedding collections. #3 did not get the full collection but still got the quilt- same will go for #4.

  • I have two boys, the youngest almost 11 months old, so I just did his room a year ago. Right now the babies will have to share a room so, no, the new one won't be getting a newly decorated room. If we manage to sell our house and buy bigger before the baby is born, then yes, #3 will get a room decorated just for him/her. And if it's a girl, heck yes, I'm buying some frilly girly bedding because I am surrounded by testosterone around here and a little pink would be welcome in my life, lol!
