in Pregnant after a Loss

I am wondering if I should keep this or return it and just use the PNP or if I could use the PNP downstairs the cosleeper in our room since it is kind of tight quarters in there as it is??

Any experience orthoughts?

    Hi Vanessa -

    I was just talking to a girlfriend who wishes she had used one with her little one - my friend said that the PNP and crib which she used for her daughter seemed "too big" at times and my friend wishes she had a co sleeper as that might have been more snuggly for her little one !

    Good luck :)

    No way.  You'll get a lot more miles out of a PNP.  Plus the co-sleeper is dangerous.  See here:

    I plan on getting a PNP that has a Newborn Napper like this:  https://www.toysrus.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3572949

    Next baby, I will be getting a co-sleeper. I used the PNP for Owen and hate it.... it's too big, and it's not as easy as one would think to just reach in and out to get him. Plus we bedshare half the time, and I would feel so much better about it if I had the cosleeper.

    ETA: I also agree about the PNP seeming to big at times... now that he can move he moves all over....I wish there was a smaller space for him to sleep in. Also I am not sure that safety information has anything to do with brands like the arms reach co sleeper, they don't seem to work the same, and I have never heard of safety issues with the arms reach.

    We're using a cradle in our room and the pnp in the living room. We were afraid to get a cosleeper as our dog sleeps w/ us. She's very protective of us (and know she'll be the same way w/ the baby) and we were afraid she'd climb into the cosleeper w/ the baby.

    We are planning on getting the mini co-sleeper because our room is small, and a PNP would just be way too big.

    Thanks for the info girls! I agree with you Lauren that the safety information doesn't seem to look like the Arms Reach Co Sleeper (which we got) and I have seen all good safety reviews on it...

    MyBobble - I agree with you 100% about the dog! Ours sleeps with us too but we will probably just leave the sides up but have it right close to the bed - I just like how tiny it is of a sleep space!

    I think we will keep it :)

    We're going with the arm's reach too.  I liked that it also has a higher weight limit than traditional bassinets and PNPs with the bassinet feature so we can use it longer.  We're going to keep our PNP in our living room.

    We're going to use the mini co-sleeper in our room, and keep the PNP in the rec room (basement).
