Bassinet options help!

Question

We are trying for baby #2 and I HATED our bassinet for our first so I got rid of it. It was just a simple second hand one since I didn’t want to spend a bunch of he wasnt going to use it… turns out most important thing in our house so now I’m back on the hunt here are my issues 
1) last time had an emergency c section so I slept in a recliner for 6 weeks just easier. So must be movable easily
2) our bed is 22 in off the bed and I’d like something that would get that low to breast feed a little easier at night.
3) would LOVE to be able to elevate one side to help with reflux safely 
4) the more affordable the better… but I’ll pay for quality we want 2 more kiddos

Answer

Honestly we had the 4moms and for the price of it the sounds sound cheap and the buttons on the screen don’t always work.. it’s weird but for the money NOT WORTH IT. 2 other friends with it agreed would definitely not buy again.

Answer

We love our Guava lotus. I'd recommend either that or a Halo.

Answer

This is what we had & I loved it. My son slept in it til he could sit up on his own.

Answer

We splurged on the momaroo for our first. My husband loves tech stuff and I love to sleep. I was hoping this would help extend my sleep. For one, she slept in her moses basket in the living room half the time (husband watched her until 2am so it was easiest for him) so she was barely ever in it. Two, the thing started squeaking really loudly like a month after we got it, so we couldn't use the motion functions. I still used the noise, but it turns off every 4 hours so a continuous noise machine works better. Don't really have a recommendation, because for number 2 we are just starting him in his crib in his own room, but I definitely do NOT recommend the momaroo!

Answer

I desperately wish we’d had this for our first. I LOVE this one. It folds down one side so it can be used as a stand-alone bassinet or one that goes against the bed and is open so baby is right beside you. It is heavy but it’s super sturdy and reminds me almost of a mini crib. I personally don’t like using ones that vibrate or have movement because I don’t want them to get used to that in order to sleep.

Answer

Putting this as a do NOT recommend! Had the Halo bassinet with my first and it was heavy, not easy to move, and just overall not it. I think this time I’m going with something basic with wheels so I can move it easily from room to room.

Answer

Used this one for baby #1 and bow #2.
I love it. Yes it us heavy but we don't need to move it (4moms play yard downstairs). I love that it swivels really easily. Love that the wall cones down to take out baby really easily (especially with c-section) in the middle of the night for feedings. Love the mesh wall becuase baby #2 moves and his face ends up on the wall often. I can also see him easily becuase of the mesh wall. We have a really high bed and love that the height is adjustable.
