In the second trimester of pregnancy, lots of exciting things are happening in your life. Not only are you growing larger and larger with each week that passes, but you will soon find out the sex of your baby. While you are waiting for your baby's arrival, start decorating your baby's nursery!
There are many things to think about when it comes to decorating the perfect baby's nursery, including what baby crib bedding to purchase, nursery decor, nursery themes, and more.
Before you paint your nursery, you should decide on a nursery theme. Of course, this depends on whether you are having a boy or a girl. There are a variety of nursery themes and ideas that may fit you.
For your future son, perhaps decorating his nursery in a sports and game theme. Fill his room with sports motifs - footballs, soccer balls, basketballs, and jerseys. Teddy bears are another popular baby nursery theme that will add a comfortable and traditional feel to your son's room.
If you are having a little girl, you may want to surround her with a floral or butterfly and insect nursery theme. Or if you are more of a style-conscious parent, you'll love posh nursery themes. Posh crib bedding sets combine luxurious fabrics with sophisticated designs that definitely turn heads!
Make her nursery feel like a burst of sunshine with bright colors. For a baby girl's nursery, choose a theme that is cheerful and stylish. You want to get her off to a great start, and put a smile on her face too!
Once you've chosen a nursery theme, don't paint ... not yet! Purchase a baby bedding set that matches your nursery theme. Your crib bedding set will be the focal point of the room, so you want it to match the nursery theme that you've chosen.
Baby crib bedding comes in a variety of colors, styles, and themes. From boy baby crib bedding sets to girl baby crib bedding sets, you will soon find the perfect design and theme for you!
As you browse, you'll soon discover that some designers, such as JoJo Designs and Caden Lane, feature more classic or traditional designs, while others (including Glenna Jean and CoCaLo), bring modern, contemporary designs.
Keep your price range in mind too. Some crib bedding designers are on the high end of prices - such as Picci, which comes straight from Italy - and others are less expensive, such as Pam Grace Creations and Trend Lab.
If you are on a budget, remember that you can find quality crib bedding sets at any price!
For first-time parents who don't quite know what they want, CoCaLo baby crib bedding is a perfect choice. CoCaLo crib bedding sets feature a variety of different designs - from the traditional patchwork themes to posh couture to creative safari crib sets.
After you've selected the perfect baby crib bedding set, it's time to paint your nursery. Don't paint until you have the crib set in your nursery. Sometimes the colors you see online or in a magazine may not be the true color in real life.
After you've selected your baby crib bedding set and painted your nursery, it's time to choose nursery decor! Nursery accessories can make your baby's nursery a very special place to be.
Peel and Stick Wall Decals will truly set the atmosphere of your nursery. These wall stickers can be stuck anywhere in the room, including on walls and furniture, without leaving a sticky residue. They come in a variety of patterns and themes, including fairy princess, dinosaurs, monsters, pirates, transportation trucks, polka dots, and more!

Nursery lamps also make a wonderful addition to your baby's room. You can find baby nursery lamps that match your baby crib bedding sets, or ones that can match any nursery decor. Nursery lamps also come in a variety of beautiful colors and styles - from the more sophisticated damask patterns to whimsical safari themes.
For a playful touch to your nursery, select a nursery chair or nursery rug to enhance the look of the room. Whether rug or chair, nursery decor makes a bold fashion statement and will create that picture perfect nursery room that you'll want to brag about!
Other accessories that you may want to add to your nursery include wall art, decorative tissue boxes, wastebaskets, picture frames, lighting decor, plush soft toys, and storage boxes.
You don't have to rush to buy nursery decor right away. If you're on a budget, you may want to purchase your baby crib bedding set now but wait until after your baby arrives for room accessories.
In addition to decorating your baby's nursery, celebrate the new life growing inside you with prenatal heart listeners. These fetal monitors allow you to listen and record your baby's first sounds, including his kicks, heartbeat, and hiccups. Prenatal heart listeners can work as early as your second trimester of pregnancy, so it is definitely something you want to shop for! Plus, they are relatively inexpensive - under $100!
