Woke up at 6.30 am (as is now customerary for me) and started fretting about how we are going to fit a baby - more specifically baby stuff - into our flat. Luckily we have a 2 bedroom flat so we have a spare room. But if I am breast feeding will I want the baby in our room? There isn't really room for a cot in our bedroom? Would I use a moses basket? Is there a difference between a cot and a crib? What type of cot should I get?!
I don't really want a nursery themed baby room, I would just like a nice simple room with furniture that will last a while. We have a spare bed in our spare room but should we get rid of it (not really suitable as a regular bed - it's the Ikea metal framed day bed - love it!) or will I be sending DH into the spare room to get some sleep, or if the baby is in the spare room will I want to be sleeping on it if regularly breast feeding? We have our tumble dryer int he spare room, which will now have to go our bedroom or the living room (eww!)
Arrggghhh! Sorry, I know you can't answer these questions for me but any advice would be gratefully recieved. How do you have a baby and still have a nice grown up house on a budget?
