J's room was only ready the day before he arrived! Okay so he arrived 4 weeks earlier than expected so technically I was ready in time.

K's room was ready 2 months before she arrived and I had the maid cover everything with sheets so that it would stay clean. Damn I did a good job in that room!

I was also much better prepared for my first than my second!!!

But I agree with D, be ready from about 30 weeks or so. Just pack the hospital bag at least! You DON'T want to send hubby to the shops to buy you pads and pj's when you are already in labour!

Hmm, I don't think there is a set rule R, but personally, I would try to have everything pretty much organised by the time I reached about 30/32weeks. You don't want to be rushing around and stressing in the last couple of weeks. And if, God forbid, baby arrives even just a little early, I'm sure you want to be relaxed knowing that you are prepared either way.
