I understand where your wife is coming from. It's very hard to be reminded of a broken dream and those reminders come at the strangest of times. The emotions surrounding whatever fertility issues you may have come through tend to be stronger for the woman in most situations. Not that the man doesn't feel the loss...it's just different for most.
Anyway, I do agree with you that it would be healthy to move forward and look to the future so I would say meet halfway since your wife isn't quite ready for the full nursery. Get some of the work done and maybe by the time that is completed she may be ready to keep going. You never know!
We are getting things ready to make that nursery for our adopted child, but until we get the home office moved out of that room not much can happen. We're going simple like we did with our bio daughter. Nothing special on the walls and windows...just a crib, toys and books. We'll split up the dressers and things like that which currently are in her room. Because of that we will probably just leave it as a guest room until we know for sure we're matched and then we'll move the crib in.
