How to fit a baby bed in…when you have no space

Pinterest LinkedIn Tumblr

For those of you who are thinking about the arrival of your new baby, you may be ciphering through the rather overwhelming amount of baby bed options available. I know I certainly did when I had my first child. Which is why with my second child due in just one month, I have some experience in this newborn baby world… but I can honestly admit, the sheer number of options is still quite overwhelming.

At the moment, we are a little short on space as our house-moving has been slowed down and interrupted by COVID-19 restrictions. So SPACE is currently an issue!
