I have been looking at crib bedding online and have picked out a few that I like.  Most of the sets that I like come in a full crib bedding set (comforter, sheet, blanket, valance, diaper stackers, and one more thing that I can't think of!)  or they also come in a mini-set with only includes the comforter, sheet, and blanket.  Which would you buy?  Second time moms- are the extra pieces frivolous?  The difference in price is pretty big.  The full set is $169.99 and the mini-set is $59.99.  Thanks!

Re: Crib Bedding vs. mini-crib set....
I honestly think it's all kind of frivolous. I'd definitely go with the mini-set. First...You can't even use the comforter, not advised to use a bumper, and the dust-ruffle becomes pointless as soon as you lower the crib. Diaper stackers are a complete pain in the butt...it makes more sense to get a diaper organizer like this one :
I know it's fun to decorate a nursery. I did it for my son and spent a FORTUNE on it and he ended up sleeping with us (by choice) for the first 18 months of his life. He couldn't care less what his room was decorated like and by the time we got him in his new room in our new house, it was time to decorate it something else. I don't even plan to do a nursery for this new baby, in my experience it was a monumental waste.
