  I had my cribs bought and assembled by 28 weeks. I also dug out all my baby stuff and washed all the clothes before 25w. I am so glad I did because I went on bed rest at 29w. While on bed rest I spent a lot of time buying the accessories like wall art, rugs and lamps. My advise is the sooner the better!

  I had register around 22 weeks and had my shower at 28 weeks. I went on bedrest at 29 weeks but now we didn't even start the nursery yet.
  
  My husband is painting the nursery this week and the cribs are waiting to be delivered. All the other essentials I have already out or have been bought and are waiting in the closets. So by 32 weeks the nursery will be done, but now I will need a lot of help from my family to put it all director instead of doing it myself.
  
  Like @smscartozzi, I will be ordering the decor and details online now. And my mom will have to wash and arrange the ton of baby clothes.

  
  

  D & L are here at 34 weeks 4 days by vaginal and breech delivery on 11/19/2013

  Two healthy boys weighing 4 lbs 15 ozs and 4 lbs 5 ozs.  Only 6 days in the NICU and getting bigger, stronger and cuter every day!

  30+ weeks here and we are still waiting on the new carpet to get laid in sometime within the next 2 weeks. DH is working on the painting still as well. We do however have everything ordered and ready for them it just needs to be assembled ( cribs, dresser, mattresses, bedding, decor, etc..). I am not in a huge rush this time around. With my first we had it all done by week 25. I know they will be sleeping in their bassinets next to our bed for a while so even if we are still putting some stuff together after they arrive thats ok too. They wont know the difference and I have a feeling I will enjoy putting little baby clothes away when I am not so huge. We did have everything purchased by week 26 though. Its just been waiting for us to put it together. Bed rest has been making that complicated.

  I just cleaned out the room today and I'm starting to do all the research now. I'm assuming we will have the big stuff set up by around 20-25 weeks and all the small stuff after the shower. I can't wait for a real nursery!

  I'm 21w and hope to go pick paint colors today. I'd like to have everything set up by thanksgiving so I can enjoy the holidays without worrying about what I need to do for their room.

  We didn't do a nursery, really. I had bought all the big stuff by 28ish weeks. We started setting things up around 32w and the final washing of clothes, etc was done while they were in the NICU (they came at 34w, no bed rest prior).

  We ordered our second crib after our anatomy scan. We're not going full out on the nursery this time so its still not done but they have somewhere to sleep.

  Our nursery was painted very early as I knew what I wanted, it was neutral, and we were excited!!!
  
  Other than that, we don't have anything done. We just got the cribs this weekend from the in laws and they will be put together in the next few weeks.
  
  I'm already registered as I'm having a shower early in 3 weeks!
  
  I'm 20 weeks today.

  We cleaned out the room and set up the cribs at about 26 weeks. We hadn't actually expected the cribs to arrive for about 3-4 more weeks, but they came early and since my BIL was over, we got him to help.   We didn't (and won't) paint the room though, so that was one less task to do. We have nothing on the walls yet. (28 weeks now)

  i registered early, at about 12 weeks, but didn't buy anything until 20 weeks and that was some outfits from a consignment sale.  our shower is in 3 weeks when i'll be 28 weeks and we are painting the nursery the week before that.  whatever we don't get at the shower we will buy and set up then.  can't believe it's getting so close!

  Im 30 weeks and having a hard time moving around. I wish we would have started on the room earlier so I could do more instead of waiting on my dh and others to get things done.... If I had to do it again I would have it painted w furniture in by 25 weeks
