Can a toddler use the Graco Pack n Play: Does anyone have experience (good/bad) using this with an 18-month of about 27lbs?

I've done it before, but be warned the baby can flip over the side if too tall..which is a scary sight to see - take my word on it. So far, both my older children have not slept well in the playpen, the flooring is hard and using blankets/extra padding is dangerous. All of mine were too tall to use the playpen by 18 months. Sorry to sound negative, these playpens are great but we have found them to be insufficient as sleep areas for baby or young toddlers and best used for play. I'd suggest a crib mattress on the floor in a babygated and babyproofed room, or one of those bean pod portable beds.

Yes I bought it for my 2 1/2 mo old and it worked fine. Although my daughter was 11 lbs at the time. Now shes 4 1/2 mo and 17lbs and still has plenty of room!

how did it work on your 18 month old? Mine is 16, 25lbs. was wondering if it would work. He's always in the water and loves water....

I wouldn't go much below 1 year... The straps go pretty high and it's not really meant for infants. We took our daughter at maybe 10 months on a really slow ride around the block and she was slumping down and not very comfortable. We waited a few months and she loves it.

My son still uses it but he is failure to thrive so is still pretty small for 18 months. 18 lbs. And he is 25 inches long and still fits comfortable Hope this helps.

I'm not sure of the weight limit but I have had a 2 y/o jumping in it with no problem. He is about 25 lbs and he fills it up pretty good. Sleeps comfortably but only for a few more inches! It is very handy and transports easily. Not as sturdy as the Graco pack & play but also not as pricey. This a good overnighter or travel bed.

Hi my toddler is 20 months and about half the weight you are inquiring about however he is very active (since he was 5 months) and the playard has held up well. If you need a more accurate update in a couple months when he is heavier ask again and we will see how it is holding up.

Thank you for your reply ... I have actually had this stroller for 11 months and I've been putting the Graco Snugride in the back the whole time. It is completely safe and snug. The weight of the carrier falls well beween the two sets of wheels and is extremely sturdy. I appreciate your warning of "looking like such and incompetant" ... but I would never, ever put my children in danger, even if I don't follow every rule to the letter.

My daughter is 6 months and she still uses it. She is 18 lbs. and 27in she a lil on the tall side for her age but she still fits :)

I'd say yes. Our baby is more than 22 lbs and still rides comfortably in the Ergo (don't recall how long he is) - you may find that as your daughter gets heavier, *you* are more comfortable with her on your back instead of in front (and the side-carry option is nice to switch things out, though I never do that for long periods of time). We still use the Ergo in all three holds with our little guy. :)

Thank you so much !!! Whew...one more question if you don't mind. I have a 2 1/2 year old that is about 28 lbs and I keep reading some concerns about the size of the toddler and being comfortable. Have you any experience or comments about this and are you overall happy with this stroller? Thank you so much for your time !

No my 22 month old has been great on it, we've had it for a few months now.

It is best for 18 month (if walking and steady) to possibly 7 or 8 depending on height/weight. The limits are 220, my husband can be on with my 2 1/2 year old son and it is fine.

I would not suggest buying it at this age. I bought this at 4 months, daugter is now 7 months and feel I only got a months worth of use. By the time she was 5 months she was rolling over on her stomach and not so much wanting to be on her back, I did end up buying the Bright Starts Around We Go Activity Station, Doodle Bugs which she loves. She can sit in the little seat and use her legs to walk around the activity table which my daughter just loves.

I should be clear that we are still using the 3-in-1 Graco model that came out before this one for my four-year old. My kids grow big, so we put her in it when she turned 1, and she's still using it, but for only the booster now; it's been 3 1/2 years. We just purchased the Nautilus for my one-year-old, but I'm expecting the same life out of it.

My son is 14 months old and I'm still using it. I figure the way he's growing, I'll probably can use it 3 or 4 more months. My son is 24 pounds and 2 feet 5. He's big ;)

I think it would be okay for an 18 month old, I got it for my daughter when she was 2 and she loved it (and still does at 3 1/2). It's would be a good size for fisher price little people to play in too. We use the Disney magic clip princesses with ours, they're just the right size.
