Where is your crib?

I've always disliked that crib stuffed in a corner look in a nursery (though my nursery sure isn't designer. Or even decorated).  So DD's crib sits in the middle of a wall but perpendicular to it, like an adult bed would be.  It's worked great so far because we can get to both sides of it (awesome for changing sheets) and it kinda obscures the changing table messiness from the doorway.  But I'm thinking since DD is getting bigger and accumulating more toys she will need more floor space.  Has anyone left their crib in this position or if you have it against the wall any advice, pros/cons about it?

Ours is in the middle of a wall but horizontal to it.

Ours is shoved in the corner of our bedroom! I can't wait to move so she can have her own room.  I swear she would sttn if she didn't hear me come in the bedroom every night.

Same here.  We have it there for two reasons: (1) our nursery is huge, but there's a queen bed in it and just about every wall has a doorway and/or low wall vent, so we have limited location options for the crib, and (2) If we move it from the wall, it's very hard to get most of the crib covered by our video monitor.  There is one bad thing about the location - he loves to kick the wall and that wall is shared by the master.

Our LO's crib is in the corner.  No choice due to the size of his room and the set up.  Its 10x12 with 2 doors ( room & closet) and 2 windows.  With a full size chest, dresser, 30 inch wide bookcase, glider rocker, and night stand. Not to mention the oak cradle he used to sleep in while in our room.

Against the wall, but not in the middle of the room:

This is our problem.  We have a huge wardobe, dresser, changing table and recliner in there so with the window and air vent we're limited.  The wall it's on is about the only place for it so the only thing I could do is turn it sideways against the wall.  Ugh, moving furniture!

In the corner of our room. Can't wait to move, so she can have her own room!!!! The garage has been converted to be 2 bedrooms, but there's no AC out there. We live in AZ. I'm not putting her in a room with no AC lol
