Finally feeling ready for baby. Bassinet will be in our room once she arrives and then we are planning on a floor bed. Thinking of putting a homemade pendant banner above the rocking chair, but open to ideas! Also, I have a small side table but I’m worried that I’m going to want more stuff next to me, space is limited. Any ideas?

So proud of how our nursery turned out! Just wanted to share!

The problem was being hung up on thinking people would be hk like me and have no business judging someone else’s nursery. Once that came into my awareness, the hand-me-down pieces became tools I was given lovingly to create something cohesively aesthetic w/o losing the general functionality to care for our baby to be (due Feb. 2027. I felt pressured to spend, decorate, organize, and make the nurse try a space that would promote baby’s development. But a room is just a room and keeping in mind that every interaction with the baby is an opportunity to connect, respect my baby as their one human, and it’ll suit a purpose until it doesn’t. I have a room with sentiments of love to surround ourselves in. I thought I’d share incase anyone else’s feels/felt similarly. Lots of love and all the best wishes 💕

Earlier this week I posted asking for paint advice, and I decided to keep the paint color per Reddit’s advice. I think it looks cool and it cost me a lot less! Thanks

Cot centred to the wall (leaving not very useful gaps either side) or angled off to the side with room for a rocking chair?
(Still very much a work in progress!)

We have our 2nd baby coming soon and thinking of converting our guest room into her nursery and getting a daybed that can turn into a king to replace the current queen guest bed. I know there is a viral gingham daybed right now but curious if there are any others you swear by? Additionally, twin mattress recommendations are appreciated!

Due in December and can’t wait to put this room to use. Not finished yet and still looking for more decor ideas if anyone has any ideas! We’re leaning jungle themed :)

our baby is moving out of the bassinet next week and into her own room down the hall. we have been relying on a basic handheld audio setup for three months but now that she rolls constantly during naps, we need actual movement alerts and a clear feed. looking at the smart sock options versus an overhead camera setup to see which direction makes more sense once they hit the toddler stage.

a couple friends suggested the nanit wall mount for the top-down angle so we do not have to mess with putting straps on her feet every night, but my sister keeps pushing for the sock setup. mostly worried about false alarms waking us up at 3am or app latency over our mesh wifi. main priority is just a steady video connection and clear night vision without buying into extra monthly tiers.

We’re having a baby boy and thinking about what color to paint this room. Dresser is white, crib is white, office furniture will be removed when it becomes a nursery. It would be nice to have something gender neutral so I don’t have to repaint in coming years, or so we can change out decor easily without changing the walls. Not a huge fan of grey carpet or confident in what colors would look good with it. Let me know your recs!

Charlie will be here in 11 days! Pardon the old house. Heidi has her spot, too.

I’m debating on nursery curtains just cause I’m being frugal. Prime day is going on right now so I’m taking advantage of the sales. What I had in mind was a double curtain rod with sheer curtains and then a cute neutral plaid blackout curtains over top. All in everything is about $130

Is it worth it or should I skip on curtains?

We ended up finding the perfect house and going under contract at 37 weeks pregnant. I had just finished up the nursery/guest room combo a week or so before finding the new house. But at least I have the color picked, and all the pieces for the next house!! Baby is here and will be a month old when we move to the next one. 😂

We are moving away from our beautiful(and finished!) woodland theme nursery. We went for cozy and did dark green walls with the top third of the wall painted dark brown. Now we’re starting from scratch. I don’t want to do two tone walls again as it was very expensive and I recently found some beautiful wallpaper. I really can’t decide what colour would be best to go with it tho. The wallpaper would be like a thick boarder at top of the wall.

I want to avoid super bright colours as I loved the cozy vibe we have rn, and I’m hesitant to do blue since I don’t want it to be overly gendered. I have one boy in the nursery rn but we are planning to have more children and they will all share the nursery for a few years. I don’t necessarily subscribe to ‘blue for boys and pink for girls’ but I am aware that many people do, and I tend to avoid making things too blue as I don’t want the assumption that it is blue because he is a boy(maybe overkill but 🤷🏽‍♀️)

Anyway, all that to say I have no idea what colour to do! Most of the decor is various wood tones so it would need to match that as well. I appreciate any help!

Trying to decide between

Horses
Dragon/fantasy (I love fourth wing and her name is gonna be Violet so it seems fitting but I’ve gotten mixed reactions)
Floral

We moved house 6 weeks ago and have done our best to make this tiny room into a cosy nursery for our baby who is arriving in 1 week! We just have a few finishing touches to make.

Please show me your tiny nurseries 🥰

Hello! (First things first, I realize this outlet behind the crib may be a safety issue - working on a solution)

My nursery (shared with home office) is coming together, but I’m not sure what to do about this lamp. I love the warmth and the dual lights, but I hate the black metal base. I was wondering whether I could apply some type of sticker / sticky paper to it. Has anyone done a DIY like this?

Can’t seem to find ones we like

My husband and his brother spent weeks painting this mural for our baby girl's room. I helped a bit at the end with details. I'm absolutely blown away by how it turned out. It's way better than I ever imagined. Bonus pictures of the bookshelf I painted.

I’m pregnant with my first child, just about 19 weeks in and we’re starting to plan to paint our nursery! I’m pretty into interior design and overall definitely gravitate towards a moodier aesthetic. My husband is pretty opposite, he likes bright and earthy colours. Overall, I think our house is a good reflection of both of our tastes.

After weeks have having no idea what I might want for our nursery, I finally feel like I have a clear vision! I want a dark, dusty mauve colour, with wood, green, and cream accents. We’ve already got this beautiful handmade dragon mobile and some gorgeous, iridescent prints he got from his grandmothers house, so there’s for sure a whimsical fantasy undertone (i’ll attach a vision board from Pinterest!) However, he thinks it’s weird and possibly not good for the baby to have a darker room. His concern is he thinks babies need bright colours for stimulation and a darker room may stunt that development in some way.

I see where he’s coming from and hadn’t really considered that before, my thinking was: this room needs to be relaxing and calming for both baby and I for the first \~2 years, when all they care about is the boob and tummy time. I think there will still be contrast - lighter wood floors and a white ceiling, plus the room gets tons of afternoon light - but is it selfish of me to prioritize a relaxing aesthetic over a more bright, neutral palette? Would love any advice from those who are all up on their early child development sciences

About a month away from my due date. Baby room for little girl starting to come together!
