I am a first time mom & I don't know whether a pack n play or crib is better. My mother in law thinks we should get a crib, but I was set on getting a pack n play since space will be limited in our room. What do you ladies think? What did you guys use?
@castwe use a pack n play for the first few months while baby is in our room then switch to the crib in the nursery
Me personally...never felt comfortable keeping my son in there to sleep. I ended up getting a crib.
yeah we have both crib in our room but a pack and play for living room and travel or if my mil has him her room is right by living room and sleeps out there sometimes so it's easier to move around space wise
You can add a small mattress to the pack n play afterwards for baby to sleep on once he gets older right?
if you have limited space pack and play all the way!! I plan to have alot more room once baby get here so I have both.. but I have friends with new babies and they said they hardly ever use the crib except at night sometimes and the pack and play will grow with them so no expensive parts to change it when they get bigger
I think everyone is different. I've never been big on the pack and play. but I did keep mine over at my mother in laws so she had a place for the baby to sleep. I used a basinet at first, but we did most co sleeping. and a crib once my son was older. we still co slept lol. and I just layed a blanket down on the floor for him to roll around. I never kept him put in something. I just chased him around the house and let him move around as much as he wanted.
i was in the same situation and at the end decided to just get me a pack n play (: i think its much better in my opinion
I have a bassinet and a pack and play. we're limited on space as well, only have the room we sleep in 😖
