Nurseries and Baby Gear

When did you order nursery furniture?

Sorry if this has been asked a million times.  I lurk here infrequently and didn't want to use the search function.  DH and I have been looking at furniture and I remember reading here that it took many people like 10 weeks for furniture to come in.  I like a collection at BRU but want to look at other places as well.  How long did it take your BRU furniture to come in?  Other places?

 BTW, I love.love.love looking at your nursery pics!

TIA!!

Re: When did you order nursery furniture?

  • I recommend ordering it sooner rather than later.  We didn't order ours until about 6 weeks ago and it won't be here for another 4-6 weeks.  While I know we don't really need it until the baby gets here, it would have been much nicer to have it here and have the nursery fully ready.

  • When I was 20 weeks, after we found out what we were having. I wanted to get white if it was a girl and dark if it was a boy. We only had to wait 2 weeks to get our furniture though because it was in stock.

  • I ordered mine at 20 weeks from a local baby furniture store. Good thing since it has taken them 13 weeks to deliver and I am being induced 4 weeks after it arrives. The sooner the better, the place were I ordered from holds orders until you are ready for them as well, no charge, so if it came in before we were ready for it, it wasn't a big deal.
    A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.

  • We got ours from JC Penney's and it only took about a week and a half to come in.  I think we ordered at about 33 weeks, but I think as soon as you find something you like go ahead and order it just for the peace of mind that it will be here in plenty of time. 
  • We ordered ours around 26 wks and were quoted 10-12 wks for delivery. We figured if it wasn't here when mybobble baby arrived that would be alright as he'd be sleeping in our room for a while.

    We ordered ours from a local baby furniture store. We were quoted 10-12 wks but got the call that it was in after 3 1/2 wks!

  • We got lucky as our crib was in stock and we took it home the same day we bought it.  Our dresser/changer however had to be ordered.  They told us 6-12 weeks.  I am hoping it gets here in 8....  This was not at BRU, it was a locally owned/operated baby store.

  • We bought our furniture last Saturday and we were told 8-12 weeks, but they'll hold it if we're not ready for it.
  • We just ordered it this past Sunday. I was nearly 22 weeks.

  • We ordered ours at 28 weeks from JC Penney. They *said* allow 7-14 business days for it to arrive, which was perfect for us since we had about 2 weeks left of getting the nursery ready. Well, they must have super fast shipping because we got it all in in 3 days!! So, now our nursery furniture has been sitting in our dining room...LOL. Oh well- better early than late!
  • I'm planning to order mine in Dec (around my 26wk mark) I'm going to get it from Walmart and the turn around time is 2 weeks so we will have enough time.
  • We ordered ours at 14 weeks because we foung it on sale with reallllly cheap shipping.  Also, we didn't know how long it would take to get here!
  • i just posted a big rave above re: our furniture.

    we ordered it on sunday and the crib arrived today (very unexpectedly!) and i am 15 weeks now.  the changer says 8-12 weeks on the website so i'm assuming that will arrive when i am 25ish weeks along.  we plan on starting the nursery early, though, so it would be great if we can have everything finished by 30 weeks (just in case - i have a good friend who was put on bedrest at 32 weeks and her nursery was finished already - she told me not to wait in case something similar happened to me.  i'm heeding her advice Smile )

  • Our furniture is from JCPenney (the Tori collection). It took less than a week for the pieces that were available for ship-to-store. The changing tower had to be delivered to our house--I think it was about 2 weeks from the time we ordered it.
