Im due any day now with a baby boy.
but im having problems with my living space, i live with my mother, sister and her two kids in a three bedroom house so space is very limited.
i have the biggist room in the house but its not super big.
so my problem is how can i have a nursery and a bedroom?
i have a full size bed, a basnket but i will need a crib after awhile, a changeing table/dresser, and all of that takes up a ton of space.
plus in all of this my boyfriend is having to move in next month so i have to find room for him plus the new baby.
HELP! please.

Have you thought about changing from a full size bed to a futon. When it comes to storage space, you have lots of options. I suggest getting a few house and home magazines and looking through them for ideas.

Hello everyone. I have a little dilema with the question of 2 bedrooms vs. 3.?
stace22
Without any renovations our 2 bedroom's features blow away any other 2 bedroom in the surrounding area (will be 2.5 bath since there originally wasn't one on the 1st floor, 2 fireplaces, breakfast nook, screened in porch and part. finished basement etc.) but the house isn't big enough to put another bedroom on the 1st/2nd floor. Our other option is to put one in the basement that we are going to finish but we hear those don't sell well plus there are certain codes we have to follow. The area is nice, but isn't booming with resale $ so we don't want to overspend on renovations. However, we also don't want to limit what we could get because its nicer than most 3 bedrooms in the area but only has 2. im thinking possibly doing a "study that can be used as a 3rd bedroom" to not have to stick to code but give people the idea they COULD have a 3rd bedroom if they needed it. This sound good or should i go with the actual 3rd bedroom? Or should I just save the money and leave it as 2.

Maybe what you might want to take into account also is the KIND of people who live in your area generally. Are there a lot of DINKs? (Dual income, no kids..) They typically need less space so a 2 bedroom would be plenty for them probably if they're nice. Is it mostly younger families? If so, then you probably want to see how much making a 3rd bedroom would cost (including adding an extra door if necessary to meet the fire code) because a young family will be more likely to have young kids and want at least a 3 bedroom house.
With the 3rd bedroom, many communities will have fire codes about the egress you have to have (for obvious safety reasons). We have a walk-out basement so we get a pass but if the only way out is up the basement stairs you'd probably have to add a door to comply with the local fire code.
I think you'd be better off with the study since you say the area "isn't booming with resale $$". If you make a 3rd bedroom and it isn't something you'll use, then you're spending a lot of money on a bet that someone else will want it one day. I tend to believe you should make the house the way YOU want it...unless you plan on putting it on the market soon.
