I have a 5 month old over 15lbs. My bedroom is too small for a crib. will he fit in the bassinet that comes attached to it? What is the weight restriction for the bassinet?

Mine came with a bassinet, but I haven't used it. I bought the pack n play to accommodate an 18 month old grandson who was visiting. It was great for that, and I know my daughter has used her pack n play for a crib, but keep in mind that it has only a pad - not a mattress. Sorry I can't be more helpful!

I think you're talking about the higher setting on this pack n play, because this version does not come with a bassinet. I don't know what the weight restriction is but my 18 lbs 7 month old had no problem napping and playing in the bassiet. We finally lowered it because she starting trying to climb out.

There isn't an actual bassinet that comes with it. I may have called it the wrong thing... The mat sits up higher in a netting with support bars underneath. I chose this one without the bassinet feature because little ones outgrow it so quickly that I thought it wasn't worth the extra cost. I have a two month old & I swaddle her using a blanket, wombie, or Velcro swaddler and she does just fine. I also use a small cradle at night upstairs. My little one is over 11 lbs and in the 97th percentile for height. We have room for a crib, but we choose not to use one yet.

Yes, but him being 5 months old he is probably sitting up and maybe trying to pull up. You will need to take out the bassinet top first. He is too old for that portion of the pack n play.

My daughter is almost one and still sleeps in it, but we took out the bassinet insert as soon as she started sitting up, so it's more like a small pack 'n play. It's starting to get small for her now length-wise, so we'll be assembling her crib soon.

Honestly, we have this item attached to our crib that has been converted to a toddler day bed, but it's definitely a safety hazard if your are the overly cautious sort. It isn't installed properly (we had to use zip ties!) and It's almost but not quite as long as the crib itself- which means there's the slightest possibility their head/neck could get stuck. We have it on our 2.5 y/o's convertible crib but it's definitely not a great fit.

A bassinet mattress is quite smaller than a regular crib mattress. So, you would have much more of the mattress cover to fold over once you get it. I had to fold mine over and taped it down to the crib mattress with packing tape but I felt it was worth it for my child's protection.

No, the crib does not come with a bassinet. However, it is safe to lay a newborn directly in the crib, provided that they are laid on their back and there are no blankets or soft items used.

I bought the bed for a 5 yr old. Since the bed is slightly narrower than a standard twin, regardless of weight limit on the specifications, I would think someone over 150-160 would not be comfortable

No, a newborn will be too small. I believe the weight for this starts at 15lbs. I purchased it for my 2 month old and he was too small for the carrier.

I didn't use mine as a bedside bassinet for that reason. I let my baby sleep in it one night and she slid to the bottom and her little legs were all crunched up. I only used it during the day for naps.

I would agree that it is bigger than a mini-bassinet mattress. Instead of cutting it (which means you could reuse it once you move into a bigger crib) you could just tap the ends and sides to fit your mattress.

I used it for my First Years 5-in-1 bassinet. It worked great. It was a smidge small (about an 1/8 of an inch, nothing to be worried about) so I just put the thin First Years mattress on top of it.

when our son first flipped over we had to take him out of his standard bassinet (at 4 months). i am not a fan of putting him in his room yet since our rooms are on different floors, and I have used this for his 'bassinet' for over a month now and love it. he really moves in his sleep now, so knowing he is right beside me is comforting.

Although the crib is reasonably sturdy, I would guess that if your child is already 25 pounds this might not be your best choice in the long run.

I would have to measure it, but it is a little lower than a bassinet. if you want to email me, I can send you a picture of it with a moses basket made of bulrush in it and you could probably get an idea by the surroundings. janbrooks@epbfi.com

I have a convertable crib using toddler bed version now. So its still my crib matress but there is plenty of room to get it on, no struggle or tight fit just right. I measured the matress then checked the bedding info.

I used it as a primary place for my baby to sleep up up until she was 3 months. She slept better in the backnplay bassinet then she did in her expensive crib. Just make sure baby is always properly secured.

anytime. it is just a portable crib, so safe for baby from birth, but i personally think that babies prefer a smaller space when tiny so I always liked using a portable bassinet when they were really little, like the Brica fold and go travel bassinet.
