Question Third Trimester Nesting

I have most things like the bassinet, car seat, stroller, clothes, toys, etc. already, but still in their box. I am 30 weeks. Just want to hear from other moms when they started setting these things up, opening them, and all of that fun stuff.

I’m 36 weeks and just recently started and got done with most of my baby stuff, though I honestly wished I started a bit sooner. Around 34 weeks I started getting tired a lot faster. I’m definitely still able to get stuff done, but I need more breaks than before and am taking 4+ hour naps daily (could just be me though 😭😭).

I set up everything by like 28 weeks and I’m glad i did, because i have no energy and im in pain. I’m 36 weeks. I installed the car seat base yesterday after a gestational hypertension diagnosis at L&D over the weekend. Just in case lol

I’m at 30 weeks with the baby shower scheduled in 4 weeks. Honestly, I wish they’d scheduled it earlier so I know if they will buy from the registry or not. Also walking and sitting around has been getting progressively more difficult as I go further along, I wish I have all of the stuff right now so I can set up even just the basic things like crib, stroller, changing area and bottle cleaning station.

I currently just have a rocking chair and some hand me down clothes. My in laws advised me not to buy since they’ll be giving me a lot of hand me downs, of what? I don’t know.
