Arms Reach Co Sleeper

LemonBlush · October 2010

Anyone use this? We have a cradle for LO but she hates it. Plus it is kind of a pain for me bc it's so much lower than the bed. This has good reviews on BRU but I just wanted to hear what others had to say about it. Last night we put the swing in the room for her bc she likes that but we can't do that forever. Thanks!

I have the original and I really like it, but it is lower than the bed.

Have the mini -- we love it! I wish I had had it with my son.

They have height extenders on the BRU website

We got the mini co-sleeper (with the extensions), so now it's even with the bed, which I think is like 36 or 37 inches high. I can re-measure if you're interested.

It's really nice if you don't want to get out of bed, but unless you have really strong abs, you still have to sit up in order to reach over and pick up the baby.

We have the Mini with the extensions as well and we LOVE it!!! It's great to have him right next to me for late-night breast-feeding, but I agree with PP you still have to sit up and get them out (which isn't a huge issue b/c I sit up to BF anyways). I have slept with my finger in his paci hole for a little while before during the night please no flames !!!

It was also really nice the first few weeks b/c we would put the side up and make it a portable bassinett to roll out in the living room when we had lots of visitors that way they could see him and not have to go in our room where he was sleeping. (plus then he was in his bed sleeping and some ppl decided not to bother him-added benefit!!! )
