Many girls on my birth month board have already set up their cribs and putting together the nursery. The range would be 20-24 weeks.
I have one picked out but we haven't purchased it yet. I wasn't planning on putting it together until late May (~29 wks) We have bedding and other nursery items already but nothing is out.
Curious to see how far along you were when you put together the crib in the room.
Re: How far along were you when you put crib together?
I don't think it matters when you put it up.. whenever you just can't stand it anymore and have to see it all together!
I had mine already before I was pregnant, so I put it up as soon as the nursery was empty.
After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!
My Christmas baby turned into a turkey bird! Dillon Richard was born at 34 weeks, 5 days on November 28, 2009 after 10 weeks on bedrest for preeclampsia.

We don't have ours yet (ordered about a month ago, but takes 8-10 weeks to deliver) - will probably put it together when it comes in, as long as the nursery is painted by then.
22 weeks now and we are in the process of gathering items and ideas for the nursery, as well as cleaning out and moving around the rooms being effected by LO. I got some paint chips last night so we can pick a color and get that going - but we are in no rush at all.
I think you are fine - not having started the crib yet. I would say to maybe purchase it soon though. We went on a whim to look at cribs and when we got there found out about the delivery time on nursery furniture - so we bought it all that day. I never even though about the fact that I might need to wait to get my furniture, so was very glad we decided to go "look" that day.
Around 22-24 weeks. I made the bedding so I had to measure the crib for my sizes, etc. Also, we had the crib for a while (bought new but when I first found out I was pregnant becuase it was on sale) so we wanted to make sure everything was there.
We ordered the furniture at around 22 weeks and it came a few weeks later (2-4 week earlier than we expected). So we set it up then, I guess 24 or 25 weeks. Didn't really do a lot of work on finishing the nursery until after my showers (34 weeks) though.
Well, I'm from your August board...but I have input, too!
We are purchasing ours next weekend. We will be putting everything together, including the crib, probably Memorial Day weekend. I'll be around 28 weeks or so.
