What will you baby be sleeping in?

Question

We want to keep baby in our room until around 6 months but having a hard time deciding on what she should sleep in.
We have a Graco pack n play with a bassinet but the bassinet is only good for up to 15lbs and for some reason I feel unsure about her sleeping in the bottom part of the bassinet when she’s that little, I’m not sure why and maybe that’s a misguided thought. 
We ordered the Graco travel lite crib but we’re not impressed with the stage 1 & 2 bassinet. The bars (that hold the bassinet up) easily pop out and could fall and when using stage 1 there’s a lot of extra hanging mesh fabric. So we plan to return this. 
What are you having baby sleep in when in your room still?

Answer

We got a mini crib

Answer

We’ve gone for a Snüz ☺️

Answer

I’m going with the pack n play bassinet level and then baby will move to his own room after that point. Unless It’s super quick. We were thinking 4-6 months in our room which average we should get close to that but I know all babies are different!

Answer

I’ve used a pack and play with most of my kids, but I got it a long time ago and it’s tried and true and I love it. I’ll be using it one more time with this baby as it’s still in good condition and I feel it’s safe for baby. Sorry they don’t make them the way they used to because mine was awesome 👍😍.

Answer

I have a bedside bassinet and a pack and play! Probably gonna rotate between the two.

Answer

Pack and play! When she is too heavy for the bassinet, she’ll just sleep on the bottom. I don’t love it but I know that it’s the best option for our situation. She’ll be used to the firm mattress anyway since it’s the same one the bassinet uses. Once she’s 6 months old she’ll be in her crib in the kids room (she’ll share with her brother since we only have two bedrooms!) My son was 17lbs at 6 months and 14lbs at 4 months so if she follows the same growth pattern I think she’ll probably be able to be in the bassinet part until 5 or 6 months anyway. Unless she’s like her brother and learns to sit up at 4 months.

Answer

Moses basket with a stand next to our bed!

Answer

We have a classic basinet next to our bed and then we’ll upgrade to the crib later on where she’ll be in her own room. I’m toying with the thought of co-sleeping but honestly I don’t know if I trust myself having her in the bed. I’m a first time mom and I slept hard before I got pregnant, obviously can’t sleep now and won’t sleep much when she is here but the thought is still a little scary to me, but hubby is all for it. He wants her next to us at all times he’s so excited😂
Probably gonna just feel it out and find what works best.

Answer

We're looking for a bedside bassinet. We had one for our son but it was recalled. Unfortunately, the bedrooms in our house are frustratingly small so it's proving to be hard to find another that will fit between the wall and the bed.

Answer

Arms reach co sleeper. I used this with all 3 of my older kids and loved it.
