what are your thoughts on playpens and bassinets I don't want to spend extra money if not needed?!

Personally I love this one! Its definitely worth the money

I saw one just like this but for a girl and loved the way it was set up.

I think they're so worth it especially when you're busy and need to sit baby down for a minute without worrying they'll get into something and can be used for a few years at least

it's the kind I'm getting.

I love this one just wasn't sure bout if its worth the money

I like this kind for when I'm busy and need to put baby in something but I know a few people who used this as their crib,y daughter only slept on her stomach so this would have been a bit of a waste for me

@quea, I know what you mean. I worried on buying a crib cause both my other two refused to be in there cribs

I just bought one similar to this in a different pattern. I'm using it, because I want baby in our room in the beginning but don't want a crib or a bassinet. The one I got has a removable bouncer seat which is nice because it's like getting two products in one.

@liveitwithlove, right I agree I never used bouncers with my other two I have like 3 in my shed and I never used them I used swings over bouncers

None of my babies liked swings! lol. My kids are all oddballs.

mine are too my oldest he didn't want nothing to do with bouncer swing pacifier he was colic I had a hard time with him he was jaundice you name it he got it. my youngest non stop ear infections

I bought one of these over a crib this time. I like the fact that you aren't stuck to one room with the crib to put the baby down. I had cribs for my first two children, but I didnt want to buy a crib and a pack and play that I could take with me places.

I agree

I have this exact one!!! we never really used the bassinet piece but loved the changing pad!! we use the pack n play some and take it to the lake with us so we can hang out and she can play!

I used one with my youngest and wanted this pack n play but need the bassinet part as well and wanted other mommas advise
