Pack and Play

Did you use it? When and how often? One or two?

Re: Pack and Play

  • I use it a ton...I have it set up in our downstairs family room so when I need to put the babies down, I don't have to run upstairs (I have a 15 month old too, so this is a life saver!)

    We only have one and they both fit in it...for now we are using the basinett part

  • I have two....When they were first born, they shared the bassinet part in just one of the PNPs. We would put them in there for naps during the day. I only have one set up in my living room now, and I use it primarily as a downstairs changing station, since they take their naps in their cribs now. I probably could have gotten by with just the one, since we only use BOTH if we are driving up to visit DH's family (since they don't have cribs for them there). Traveling anywhere else (to visit my family in PA, vactations in Cancun, Vegas, Hawaii) we just use cribs at our destination....the less stuff I have to bring along, the better.

  • They shared a PNP in our room for the first month, and were able to sleep in just one until they were about 2 months old if we went anywhere.  After that they got way too wiggly to sleep together (and were over the weight limit for the bassinet anyway).  We have two now, but only use both if we go somewhere overnight.  I'm going to set one of them up downstairs once the babies become mobile so I have somewhere safe to put them for a few minutes, because our downstairs would be swallowed whole by a play yard.
  • I have one from when DS was a NB but have only used it a very few times.  For him it was a total waste of money.  I do think that I'll get more use out of it this time (since I'll still have DS to take care of) and we have a larger house (so further to walk to put them down for naps.
  • we only have one and its set up in the living room; they only take naps in it and we use it when we are in the living room to change diapers.

  • We have two.  For the first month, we had one pnp in our bedroom and ther other in the living room.  We moved the one out of our bedroom and into my inlaws house since we're over there on the weekends a lot.  I use the one in the living room every day though.  Mostly for diaper changes and an occasional nap.

  • we got the one with the twin bassents from graco. obviously i havent used it yet, but i plan on using it for naps downstairs so i dont have to walk them all the way upstairs during the day.
  • Um..three!

    We had two at my mom's for overnights.

    Then we kept one at our house.  They shared it when they were little for naps.  Then we used it at night when they needed to be separated for whatever reason (they share a room).

  • I just got the Graco Pack n Play with twin bassinett...  I think I am going to use it a lot and dh and I set it up last night and it's so cute =)
  • My girls haven't arrived yet, but we have 2 PNPs. We plan on using one in our apt. (we have a tiny apt. so I liked the changing table feature!!) and then the other one will be for traveling.
