Baby "bed" when traveling?

lovemygs · February 2013

We're heading to the beach in a few weeks, and I'm wondering what you've used for baby to sleep in when traveling? The boys will be 9 months old and they are rolling and scooting everywhere.

We have a PNP at my mom's that they hate and are now too big to both fit in. They still can hang out in their RNPs, but I'm afraid they'll be over the 25lb weight limit at that point. The condo does not provide cribs.

Any suggestions/advice? Thanks!

I was just writing out how most hotels have PNPs upon request before re-reading your post. There are companies in major cities and touristy areas that rent baby equipment and will deliver them to the place where you are staying. So I'd suggest looking online for that.

I just slept with my DD last time I was in a hotel, but I know that's not for everyone.

Have you tried a new mattress for the PnPs? The board-like ones my girls always hated. A friend had success with a comfier playard mattress like this:

I never knew about the mattress. So glad I saw this. We are about to embark on a two week trip and I was going to make the PNP our LO's bed and this will probably make the transition easier. Thank you!
