Borrowing baby items & Travel....questions.

sommerrayne · October 2010

So I'm lending out some of my baby items (jumperoo, etc) that I don't need for a long while and in return, friend who I'm lending is going to lend us her co-sleeper mini when our baby comes. Thing is - when our baby is 4ish mo old, we're going to MN for a month to work on our house.

Is it uncouth to take said borrowed co-sleeper with us on our travels? Of course, if anything happened to it, I'd replace it but it would be loaded and unloaded on airlines (and we all know how they treat stuff).

I'm going back and forth in my head about this....so I thought I'd ask you ladies!

Can't you just ask the friend? I took my borrowed co-sleeper up to Canada for a week and on a weekend work conference, and I know the family member I borrowed it from didn't mind. We cleared that ahead of time just to be sure.

I wouldn't see an issue with it, especially since you'll replace it with brand new if something happens!

I loaned out gobs of stuff including a car seat and I know that thing traveled the country. So I wouldn't mind but your friend might feel differently.
