We are adopting out of state, and willhave to live in a hotel for the first 2-3 weeks. IS this appropriate for a newborn to sleep in?

Yes in my opinion. My son been sleeping in his since he was born. I use the rock n play more than his bassinet that's just how much he loves it and works very well in small spaces like beside the bed. I love this product and highly recommend it.

Our new born slept in it every night when we brought him home. We found it very safe and convenient.

It's perfect for a hotel room because it doesn't take up much room. My new grandson (whom I bought this item for) sleeps so peacefully in his. It is truly a great and snuggly way for newborns to sleep.

We bought this for our daughter-in-law who is in a wheelchair. They also live in a very small apt. All I can tell you she loves it and so does our Grandson!

I think mattress is comfortable not soft soft, with proper sheet( tight) I think is safe, my daughter loves to sleep in it:) and travel crib light 2 looks different it has fabric on the bottom thats why some people are afraid to put babys there. My type ( older version)has only net.

My guess is yes. There's an insert that is included that makes it suitable for infants, however, I wouldn't want to take my new baby in and out of the car seat every time we get in and out of the car. I would get an infant car seat that they can sleep in without being disturbed while you're out and about, in the car, and at home.

It isn't too plush (in fact I was hoping it would be softer). I bought it for my then 3 month old and it worked well for him as I think the crib mattress was too hard. Newborns don't sleep on their stomach so I would think it shouldn't be a breathing concern. And by the time they can flip themselves over they are usually big enough that the little bit of cushion doesn't cover their noses when they are on their stomach. Also as a point of reference I have the Phil and ted portable crib and that mattress is way softer than this one. And my son slept in the portable crib as a newborn.

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.

You cold use it, the problem is if you do not change the diaper in all the night, you could irritate the skin of the baby, if you change it every three or four hours then it is fine.

I have mine sleep in the bassinet overnight. It's so much easier to have him in the room with me while he's still waking up at night to eat.

For a 3 month old I would use a travel co-sleeper. The Leacho BumpZZZ is made for a toddler.

Yes! I used it for my newborn until he outgrew the mini sleeper. I had much better peace of mind using this organic mattress rather than the one the co sleeper comes with!

We just took a chance and had our 13 month old sleep in it for the first time on a vacation. Luckily it worked out. I would suggest starting with nap time to get your kiddo used to it just to be on the safe side, especially if your dealing with a fairly young child.

The company disclaimer says it is for napping but since newborns really only nap anyway, there isn't much difference! We didn't use it for nighttime sleep but personally I would not feel unsafe doing so. There is so much air circulating around the sides - much more than many bassinets - that I can't see how it would be unsafe. We used this downstairs in our living room because it was nice-looking, compact, and easy to move into other rooms. Upstairs we used a slightly larger travel crib.

We got this to get our 8lb girl through the airport. We did use an insert to steady her head as it doesn't recline fully. But it's fathomable that an infant could fall asleep in it.

I think so. That's a cute idea. Just make sure to let it dry up. Do it when the baby is asleep.

The baby should definitely not sleep in the bassinet with the napper/changer in place. We just used the bassinet and didn't fiddle with the napper/changer because baby sort of wiggled around in it. To remove the napper/changer, you have to unsnap a few things. May not be something you would want to do at every nap.

Yes- this co sleeper is only designed for newborns through infants, so it is firm enough for them. Once your baby can sit up, it is not safe to use this anymore. Both my kids outgrew it by 5 months anyway.

Hi You could maybe double it up- that's what we did when we were at the hospital. You can also always put a blanket over the end of the bassinet if you are worried about the baby being cold. They can't regulate their own temperature that early so you really don't want them to get too hot either. I would put a hat on the baby, too for the first little bit. Sorry- not sure if that helps or not )
