So, we have a pack and play travel lite, so it's smaller, holds up to 15 pounds in the bassinette, but I got so tired of sitting up, bending over, pulling baby out of bed, in the middle of the night, I basically did not use it with Kellen. He slept between us for the most part.

I've been looking into the co-sleeper, thinking it's supposed to be flush with our bed so more like her sleeping next to us, but in her own safe place.

Did anyone use this? If so, what were your experiences?

If we get one, it will be used. Not sure if we'll get the mini or the regular, considering how fast these kids grow...

We have one! And we still use it... I'm pretty sure Lucy has surpassed the weight limit, but she fits in it just fine. I LOVED it when she was itty bitty and not mobile. It was so convenient and it felt really safe to have her close, but not in the bed with me.

When she started to crawl, though, she would crawl out of it and into bed with me. By that point, she had probably outgrown it, but I liked it and wasn't ready to move her to her own room, so she stayed there. Now she crawls out of it and into bed with me most nights..

If you move the baby out of it before she starts crawling, or if you don't mind her crawling into your bed, I think it's perfect!

Thanks, Brooke. I'm thinking this will be a good buy for us

i really looked at getting one and was on the verg of it for Kaylee. I do wish i had gotten it. it gives that extra space but baby is still close by.
