When did you start pulling out the baby stuff and washing it and start setting up things like swings, etc??

ajgreez · August 2011

Around 35 weeks...

Sharra711 · August 2011

Ehh... I'm holdin off till the last minute... but I may be pushing it too far. I'm thinking in 5 weeks... maybe? ; )

TheAbbotMommy · August 2011

I am at 32 weeks and I just finished the nursery, I will most likely be induced at 36weeks... I still need to set up the pack and play, put together the swing and other random things like get new pump parts.

I was super anxious to meet DD, so probably around 20 weeks hahaha! I would wash and fold her clothes just about every few weeks. I guess it was nesting, looking back - it got worse the close I got to delivery!

With this LO, I'm sure I'll be more relaxed. I already am. I'll probably wait until closer to full term.

julygal · August 2011

With DD we had it all set up as we got it. I don't remember when I began to pull it out of storage for DS. I have yet to do it this go around. I am waiting until September, so around 37 weeks or later.

i started sorting and washing last week--i want it done!! and we will be pulling out the swing, pnp, etc closer to the end...i want DD to get used to them being on the first floor but i don't want her climbing on them or breaking them before #2 is here.

HannahsMom21 · August 2011

We have set up the crib already because DD and this LO will be sharing a room and we wanted her to get use to the concept. I was handed down a ton of baby clothes which are folded and put away but I haven't actually washed anything lol. Like the PP said I am so much more laid back this time around. I am really focusing more on spending time with my DD and working on strengthing the relationship between DH and I.

Good luck to you!!

CalinsBride · August 2011

Not yet. I have been going through DS clothes to figure out what to keep and what to donate, but we haven't washed any of it yet. I also need to sort it into sizes and wash the NB and 0-3 stuff first. . .

The swings, etc, are in my parents' basement still and we probably won't bring them out until mid to late September, since our apartment is already pretty cluttered as it is. We'll set up the PnP in our bedroom this weekend to let it off-gas (we had to get a new one because the one we used for DS broke).

Once I got into my third trimester, I started setting everything up in it's place.

ohmygoodness99 · August 2011

I still haven't gotten the swing and stuff out. I did wash some clothes and blankets. I need to get focused!

emmyloustu · August 2011

Slowly working on my to do list. I washed the carseat and bouncy seat cover this week. DH is installing the infant seat and putting the swing together this weekend. I feel pretty behind, but at the same time, there isn't a ton to do.

MrsG.060708 · August 2011

I'll probably start somewhere around 34-35 weeks.

I went int PTL with DD1, and while it was thankfully able to be stopped, I want to make sure I'm prepared just in case.

MrandMrsAndrews · August 2011

I have all of the clothes out and ready to be sorted/washed/put away, but none of the other "stuff". That's a good point - I do need a few of the other things

DarrenAndMelissa · August 2011

Pulled it out around 35 weeks... got around to washing it at 38-39 weeks. But DD#1 was 6 days late and so I wasn't expecting an early baby (and I was right... currently 8 days late with DD#2).

sytom · August 2011

I'm waiting a little while to wash clothes, but the nursery is now functionnal, not completely decorated, but it could be just fine. As for setting up things, I did as soon as I got them. I didn't want anything to be wrong with the swing, bouncer, stroller... So I made sure everything was in perfect condition, even though everything was brand new. I don't want to run during my last weeks. Plus, you never know if your baby decides to come early.

Soon2BMrsN · August 2011

DS's old clothes are sorted and in dresser drawers (for now), but I will wash all of the clothes/linens and set up the bouncer, swing, etc. sometime in September.

RadicalDreamer143 · August 2011

I'm not setting up stuff like swings till a week before I am due. I'll have 2u2, so a lot of things are already out, like changing table, crib, etc.

kcisthebombdotcom · August 2011

Um, the week I was due? lol. I only got the bassinet out of storage before #2 came. We got the swing/bouncy seat out of storage after she was here and got other items (like the exersaucer) as they were needed.

varkeyr · August 2011

I take things out a little at a time. That way it is not a huge undertaking.

RadicalDreamer143 · August 2011

Oh, when it came to clothes... I just washed them as I bought them, with our laundry. We use Tide Free and Clear, I can't stand the smell of Dreft, lol.
