The move from basinette to cot

[caggimedicine]

At what age did you put your baby into a cot? Harry is a really big baby, and is already getting big for the basinette. I've also read that it's easier to get them into a cot earlier rather than later (e.g. before they realise where exactly it is that they're sleeping lol!)

we moved maddi after 6months, she went into her room really well considering, and continued to sleep through as she had always did. i would say go with how you feel comfortable

From about 5 weeks old I placed the moses basket inside the cot and then when Erin was about 10 weeks old I transfered her into the cot. She was absolutely fine and actually started sleeping through the night 3 days later. xx

Harry is 5 weeks old now. He's quite a noisy sleeper and makes little grunty noises all the time whilst asleep, so he's been in his own room since week 2. We just put the basinette inside the cot. Tonight we made his cot up and have put him in it at 8... he's been a little restless (although I think that's mainly because we're trying to introduce the odd formula bottle here and there and he prefers boob!) Fingers crossed he'll be fine

Dec went straight into a cot, he never slept in his moses basket at night, until four months he slept in a travel cot in our room then he went into the proper cot in his room xx

Jacob out grew his moses basket at 6 weeks but saying that we co-slept on and off since 2 weeks old. He went into his cot fulltime from about 3 weeks ago and its SO much better XxX

I moved Lola at 4 months, and into her own room. The transition was the hard period but once she got used to it she is now sleeping better than she ever has.

We are still yet to move Ellie out of her moses basket in to her cot in her own room. Ive been putting her down for her naps in her cot in the day and she seems to love it infact she sleeps really well in there. Ive been putting it off as she hasnt been very well with a cold and i wanted the room to be 100% finished. Shes better but the room isnt 100% finished so might wait another week.
