Crib substitute?

Question

Hi everyone,
So I’m 32 weeks pregnant and I was looking for any ideas I can buy besides a crib ? ( temporary) I will totally buy a crib but I will be in the middle of moving 🙄 ( yey me) and I wanted something I can put in my small room in case we don’t move when baby arrives. Something small and safe ? Then we will buy a crib when we move into our own home since I have no space or no where to store it in right now . Thank you !

Answer

I have a travel bassinet that folds in half for going out. It was purchased as an extra just for outings but I ended up using it exclusively for the first 6 months of my daughters life lol. It was awesome to be able to lay her down in whatever room we were in and then we could just carry the whole thing with baby in it if we decided to move to a different room or go to bed. It's designed to also go beside you in bed. It's amazing and I plan on using it for this baby (I'm 34 weeks now) so I haven't bought another crib yet.

Answer

I got a bassinet. It has wheels, but also rocks. It vibrates and plays music too. It even has a little night light on it. They're pretty handy!

Answer

We’re getting this pack and play and will probably use it exclusively for the first 6 months or so. We don’t want to put out the money for the crib just yet.

Answer

We have a 9momth old and a 4yr old and were due in 10weeks. I found this. Going to use it as a bassinet, its also a glider, a swing and a bouncer. It comes apart and turns into multiple things so its perfect when you don't have a whole room for a nursery.

Answer

We bought a co sleeper for our bed and DD slept between the two of us. I tried 2 and loved the Serra co sleeper better than the swaddle me one. The serra one is like 70! but it vibrates, plays music and has a night light. I loved it. Oah and it’s bigggg way bigger than the swaddle me one. DD slept in it till she started rolling over
