Just boughtn my new baby boy home yesterday. He is 5lbs 15oz a little on the dmall size but perfect. We have the rock and play sleeper(amazing). I want to know how long can he stay in the sleeper. He sleeps all day so can he stay there all day or just when he sleeps at night. The only time I take him out is to feed, play and change his diapers.
Thanks

Women on another board have said extended use has lead to such severe flat heads the baby required a helmet. We use ours during naps and when we are eating, but otherwise baby sleeps in a cradle. We carry or put him on the floor at other times
The rock 'n play doesn't cause flat heads, babies always laying to one side (most often because of a medical condition called torticollis) causes flat heads. If your baby always turns his/her head say to the right then no matter if they are sleeping in a rock 'n play, a bassinet, a crib, on the floor, in your arms, etc. they will develop a flat spot on the back, right side of their head.
It's fine to let your baby sleep in the rock 'n play for naps and nighttime, just be sure they also get a lot of tummy time.

Secondary infertility success with IVF, then two losses, one at 14 weeks and one at 10 weeks, then success with IUI and then just pure, crazy luck. Expecting our fifth in May as the result of a FET.
