Thanks

Re: Paint

Home depot sells a no-VOC paint now. We are going to use that to paint the nursery.

Re: Paint

Low VOC or no VOC paint is best, for baby and in general.

However, if you use regular paint, I read that it is recommended you let the room air out for at least a mth before baby arrives. Yet I don't think many people really do that.
