Bed for babies

staceymack · March 2013

The plan is to have the LO's in our room for the first few months. The bedrooms are on the same level but far apart.

What did your babies or will your babies sleep in the first few months?

Is feeding them in my bed realistic or do/will you have a chair in your room also?

I do not think the co sleeper will work because we have a platform bed.

TIA!

I'm planning on the Co-Sleeper Original. They do have a Co-Sleeper Universal that is meant for lower beds, so that's worth a look. I know TONS of moms and MoMs rec the RNPs, but for now, I like the idea of them sleeping flat and not curling up

We bought two Pack n Plays, but the boys wouldn't sleep flat for the first month. They have pretty intense reflux, so we used Rock n Plays. Around 4 to 6 weeks, we transitioned them into The PnPs and kept them in our room until they started STTN at 4.5 mo

For the first 3 weeks we had them downstairs in their PNP/bouncer seats and we fed them on the couch. My SO and I did a rotation at night so one could get sleep. After that when my SO went back to work we moved them upstairs to our bedrooms into the cosle

They slept in rock n plays in our room for the first 6 weeks. I liked them because they're so light that you can carry the babies in them (ours would fall asleep in the living room with us and then we would carry them into our room when we went to bed) an

Our twins are in separate cribs in the same room. When they're older we plan to separate them in different rooms because of their different genders.

For the first few weeks we tried the bassinets but we learned they did not do well flat. Then they slept in bouncy seats or swings swaddled for the first six months. We kept them in our room or the living room for ease.&

Rock n Plays were wonderful for the first three months

We kept them in the pack 'n play until they were too big to fit in the same one - then we put them in their cribs!

My babies slept in a PNP in our room with no problems. I also fed them in my bed in the middle of the night.

We plan on having them in the same crib in our room for the first couple months. Then I'm not sure. That might not work either! Haha! We will just roll with it. :]

We started with RNPs in our room. After 2.5 weeks we found they prefer to lay flat. So we moved them to their cribs. I still BF in bed though. DH brings them to me.
