Ok, so this may sound dumb, but does anyone actually use a bassinett? I am not sure if I should spend the money on a good one or if they are kind of pointless. I have a lot of friends tell me that they go straight to the crib and others just use a pack n play. My mom had one for us when we were little, but I am wondering if they are even practical?
Re: Bassinetts...do you really use them?
we did this for the first 6 weeks or so. then DS got moved to his crib since the pack and play was just to big for our bedroom and got annoying trying to getting around it.
Okay, well this may be a stupid question, but is their a weight limit to a bassinet? Maybe pack n play is better way to go. I just dont want to buy one if I am only going to use if for a week or two.
We used it while we kept DS in our room and until we got him a crib. We got it from my sister who was giving it away. It was very helpful, but I do not know if we would spend a lot of money on it. I think my sister spent $25. If we were buying it, we probably would have bought a pack n' play.
We used ours for the first 4 months Everynight! That is where our guy slept every night. Once he out grew it then he slept in the pack n play in our room until he was 6 mnths, then to his crib.
I totally recommend getting one. It was nice because we could easily roll it into the livingroom if I decided to sleep on the couch for awhile.
Love mine, Kolcraft... spent $100 on it, now I see Babies R Us has them for $75 plus you can use the 20% off coupons they send out. This is a great one!
