Hi, I am going to be moving a few months after my baby is born. Is this a suitable bassinett for the first three months (meaning, to sleep at night)?

We travelled quite a lot in her first 7 months and I used it exclusively for sleeping whenever we travelled including at night and she slept very happily.

We have used it for 2 babies... one until 3 months, the other until around 2 months. Our first baby didn't move much, our second is quite the wiggler and she seemed to out grow it a bit faster. We loved this and have given it great reviews. You can pack a ton inside of the luggage side. Great for travel or just using at home! Congrats on the new baby!

The bassinet is fairly large, but I do not think it would fit twins appropriately. At most, you would only get by for a month before they would outgrow it.

It's great for new borns to sleep on your bed with you .. After one month my baby started to sleep in his crib. But he was still fit it for when we went to grandma! So I say about 2 months before baby out grows it...

Our 5 month old is no longer comfortable in this sleeper. She's too active and slides down with her feet dangling and her neck in an uncomfortable position. I think you can use it for travel purposes if it's a short trip. I wouldn't use it for too long though. I think it's light enough to take with you.

We are still using the sleep suit (started around 3 months) at 7 months and have used it throughout some teething. I think it does become a comfort item so it might help with just feeling as comfortable as possible during that time.

My daughter is almost 6 months and still sleeps in ours. I will probably keep her in it as long as she is comfortable. I know Leachco does not approve this as a sleeping device, but it has been the best thing for us. It seems like you can use it well into toddler stages. It has an adjustable Velcro strap that allows you to adjust snugness on it to allow it to grow as your baby grows. Good luck!

My son is 10 months old and still naps in this on occasion...and he is large for his age. I can't remember at what age he outgrew the bassinet feature; I think sometime around 4 months. But, after the bassinet is outgrown, you can just put the mattress in the bottom and they nap down there. I wouldn't use this for a full-time crib at this age; but for the occasional nap or overnight trip, my son is perfectly comfortable in it. He is not going to fit in it much longer. My daughter outgrew it sometime around her first birthday.

I am not sure... you might want to Google that and see if it is... I will add my baby is now 4 months and he sleeps great in the bassinet. I don't know what I would do without it =)

Yes. Our daughter slept in the bassinet every night for the first few months. We didn't transition her over to the crib until she was 4 months old.

I think so! Surely it's personal preference too. It is lower to the ground than the common bassinets that come with a stand. It does vibrate and can rock but doesn't rock on its own like a cradle swing would. Our baby is currently six months and often sits in there to play and occasionally naps in there. When he was a newborn it was the perfect place to lay him down. We liked the size as it was very portable around the house. The middle position ended up being very useful as he had reflux. Overall I think it's a great option as it costs less than most bassinets and we are still using it in the upright positions. I think so! Surely it's personal preference too.

This works perfectly as a bassinet, the interior is more soft than it is fluffy, but can also be removed. I used this Rock 'n Play, with all of the interior, every single night those first few weeks when my son was born. Kept him right next to the bed which worked great until I decided on an in-bed co-sleeper instead. However, I'm still so thankful to use this for his naps. :)

It absolutely is, when our daughter was born she was very little to put her on the crib, so we used to have her sleep on this next to our bed by using the bassinet and lie her down there at night, now please be aware that this will work as long as the baby is still little and before they begin to roll over (2 months old) as they may fall off the bed, hope this works!

I used it when my baby was three months and it was perfect. He slept like a baby! Lol!

I would check the manual for weight on the bassinet accessory. Once baby is able to roll around I would take them out of bassinet part. I remember the manual has info on that. As for years, we have traveled and used the playpen as a bed until three yrs old.

For a bassinet, no. That's about standard for them. By nature, they are smaller. They just aren't meant for bigger babies.

This is a bassinet and is wonderful! The baby is now about 13lbs; he has been using it since he was born, 12 weeks ago. It is quite sturdy, you can see the baby through the sides, has lots of storage underneath and fits by the bed easily. It is a plus that it looks good, too!

My baby is 8 months now. He is starting to crawl and lifting himself up by holding onto the bars, trying to cross over to our bed. So it's time to remove the bassinet! You will know when it gets dangerous for them :)
