Do we need a bassinet/pack n' play?

M • Loving life! ❤️✌️
Our baby boy will be sharing a bedroom with us for the first few months until we are done with home renovations. We have his crib set up already but with the changing table and rocking chair in the room as well there's very little space left to set up the Pack N' Play which we were planning to use as our bassinet. With the crib already so close by do we even need the Pack N' Play? Are there any safety concerns with putting him in the crib from the start? We're first time parents here so just want to be sure all is safe and sound!
