Room for Baby to Grow

If Baby is sharing the master suite with Mom and Dad, use some decorative tricks to delineate the spaces.

"This helps create a little niche for the baby without appearing to be out of place."
"Define the baby's crib space with a decorative area rug," says Blum. "This makes the crib a focal point in the room and emphasizes the importance of the baby's space." She also reminds parents to choose bedding that complements, not necessarily matches, their existing d袯r.
