Rock N Play

Future R. Murray!!

I bought the Rock N Play sleeper thing to use next to our bed for the baby to sleep in at night. We do not have much room in our room and the RNP fit perfectly on my side of the bed.

 

Is it ok for the baby to SLEEP in this at night?? I guess I am nervous because it's not a flat sleep surface.  

 

thoughts?

Yes, its totally ok for a baby to sleep in it at night. The incline actually helps babies with reflux sleep better and the rocker feels a lot more snuggly than the big crib. Its also rated for sleep which makes it a better option than a swing or bouncer. Our preemie slept in hers for months. 

One caveat-you may want to put an extra receiving blanket under the RnP cover to give a little more cushion for your baby's sensitive head.  Enjoy-its one of our favorite baby items!

I was just thinking about ordering this as well.  Our pack n play is too big for our bedroom & this should fit perfectly.

My sister got this for my nephew a couple of weeks after he was born, and he sleeps in it every night and sleeps so much better now! He's 14 weeks now and still sleeps in it. We'll be using one on each side of our bed for the first couple of months with our girls.

My first son slept in it until 4 months, and he continued to take naps in it too. He LOVED that thing. We're definitely using it with this baby too. 

And it really is safe-- it's approved as a bassinet sleeping option

I got one too. I did read some people experienced issues with their baby getting a flat head so you might want to look into more cushion underneath or just make sure baby isn't sticking to one side of their head. There are a lot of reviews on Amazon.
