I'm Currently Feeling:  | Usually because of so many hazards. But these days I don't see why you can't. Make sure the baby lies with toes to bottom of the bed so she can't wriggle under, or buy a 'gro' bag |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | Ive chosen a moses basket ordered it today  Reason for this is so little one can sleep in it throw the day down stairs and then it can be easy carried up to my room on and night time.  |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | I don't think I'll be getting a Moses basket. I have a great dane puppy and I'm afraid she'll be able to knock it over too easy. Lady just doesn't understand how big she is yet and she gets really excited really easily. |

if it's too big you can get cot dividers (see my post above) - you just want to make sure baby doesnt wriggle under the blankets. but apart frm this there's no reason why baby cant use his/her cot right away. mine will. |

I'm Currently Feeling:  | My daughter slept in the carry cot that detached from the pram base for at least the first 6 months of her life.. she was such a small baby. I didn't see the point in buying an extra moses basket because the carry cot is basically the same thing, & I didn't have a lot of money. | | | | Status: Offline
