Any mummys put there LO in travel cot at bed time?

[LaDY]

Do any mummys put there baby in their travel cot at bed times on a regular basis?

If so...does your baby sleep well?

And how do you make it all cosy for them?...

My bubs is sleeping in his tonight to see if it akes a ifference to his sleeping pattern...but h look a bit lost laying there...he looks so tiny in a big space...

I have tried to make it as cosy as possible, any tips? x

My boy has been sleeping in his since 2 months old. Up until last night, he had nothing else in the camp cot, I was so worried about him getting things around his face and not being able to breath. He looks lost in it, but is quite happy and most of the time sleeps through.

summer slept in hers for 2 weeks when we went camping and she was fine (prob better than her cot lol) we just put a quilt over the 'mattress' as its was just like a bit of padded cardboard lol and snuggled her in with lots of blankets and her teddy, she loved it cause she could see me and her dad lying on the airbed nxt to her through the holes

Dec slept in his from 3days old until 4 months old, he loved it, but then again I would have slept in it myself, it looked so cosy.
This is the one he had.

I think they have upgraded it or something, Decs had a hood.

Yes Jack sleeps in a travel cot, but with a proper mattress in it as the travel one is really hard. I have fixed cot bumpers to it & he has some little teddies in there with him, he actually looks quite big in there. We had a practically brand new cotbed given to us by BIL as his son hardly used it, but when we went to set it up one of the bits was missing so was unable to set up the cot only the bed part Was going to get a cot last week, but as Jack is now starting to settle into the travel cot I will leave it a little longer - one step at a time!!!

Josh has been sleeping in his since he's born. We've put some memory foam to make the mattress cosy and comfy.

Sharlotte slept in hers until 4 months old (when she got too big/heavy for the upper bassinette). There's no way with the bad back I have - that I could have stooped 3 or 4 times a night to get her off the bottom level so I moved her to a crib.

I used a folded quilt under a plush cribsheet to make it more soft and comfy...

I think the sheets are called plushies... they are really soft and wonderful... they wash up perfect as well.

glad he slept so well!

Alasdair hates his travel cot but next time we have to use it we're going to take his normal cot mattress to use in it. The only thing he likes about it is sucking the mesh sides lol.

We had a Graco deluxe which she slept in for a month or 2 - We laid a big thick baby fleecy blanket on and tucked in on top.

We have a proper cot matress in ours. Don't have a cot yet cos we want to get a full matching set, which means saving, plus we don't have the space to get one as we live in a one bed flat atm. Moving in the summer

Tegan loves her travel cot - She has the Graco one someone else put a picture of up. She went from moses basket to that. She sleeps very well in it
