The last months of a pregnancy is when the new mom begins the “nesting” process – she takes charge of all that must still be accomplished and wants nothing less than perfection for her new baby. Five months into her pregnancy, the mother feels the baby move–who is almost as real as it will be when it is born–and she feels she has to have the perfect beginning for her child.

One of the most important things to a new mother is the condition of the bedroom her baby will be in. Obviously, when decorating a nursery, one of the first decisions to be made is what color to paint the walls, depending on whether the baby is a boy or a girl, and once that is done, you can move on to select the theme you want to use for the baby bedding. When you are ready to choose baby bedding, you will need to decide whether you want to choose a color scheme that suits a boy or one that suits a girl or would rather stay with a neutral color scheme just in case the doctor made a mistake about the gender of the expected child.
