I want something that is fairly small so I can have the baby close to my bed so I can easily see and reach her because I will be nursing.
I'm thinking of getting this one

Edit: I wanted to add that I do have a crib and pack n play with bassinet already. I have the pack n play set up in my room now but the more I am thinking about it, I want something more bed level so I can see her without having to get out of bed.
Re: Opinion
I like them! My in-laws have one for when our son is over there, and I was just thinking about getting one. He sleeps so well in it, and I was just thinking how nice and easy it is to move around. When I'm in the office, he could be chillen in here. The Pack N Play's are bulky and a pain in the rear to set up / take down constantly.
I recommend one.
I have a moses basket with base that rocls (similar to the RnP) and I love it. It's beside my bed and if baby is fussy at night, I can rock him back to sleep.
I have put my PnP in the living room which is also handy. I do my diaper changes on it and thats where baby sleeps during the day.
RnP was the only thing that my baby slept in and the only thing I havent gotten rid of
Personally, I think it's better to get your baby sleeping on a flat surface if you can, especially if you intend to transition him/her to a crib at a few months old.
However, some babies like the cozy feeling the RNP provides, and it is helpful for a baby with reflux since it keeps them at an angle. It's definitely worth having if either of those describe your baby.
My first slept great flat in a bassinet. My second hated it and does great in the RNP, but we got it after she was born and we knew she wouldn't do the flat surface.
Missed m/c 11.09 | Missed m/c 3.10 | We miss you & love you so.

She takes short naps in her PNP or crib so hopefully in a couple weeks when we move her to the PNP for nights we won't have an issue but we will see.
