Well we are pretty much settled on our nursery furniture now (just gotta go buy it!). We really like the Leksvik range from Ikea, and it helps because its a great value budget buy AND is still solid wood. The cot itself is £75 and there are a few different cot mattresses to go with it, although we are going to decide on which one to get in person (better to have a good feel don't you think?!). What i really like about it is the fact that it has adjustable height mattress base (so will be suitable as a cot until baby is a year old) and then one side is removable so it can also be a cute toddler bed. Not bad for the price!
There is a matching chest of drawers that we are going to be getting too - we'll probably use it as a baby changing unit whilst the baby is young and then as clothes storage as they get older. It helps that Ikea has a normal single bed and a children's bed available in the same wood finish - so when it comes to buying their first 'big bed' we can match it up with the existing furniture.
Now just got to get a day off to visit Ikea... no doubt i'll find more little bits to get whilst we are in there!
