Bassinets...

edited July 2011 in Pregnant
Just wondering how many of you guys are putting your babies in a bassinet and how long would I be able to keep my son in a bassinet? It says up to 25lbs, but when does a baby get to 25lbs?

  • @BeautifulOne All depends my kid wasn't 20lbs till they were 2
  • My baby will stay in the bassinet till she can roll over on her own or she sleeps through the night. My son didn't roll till 14w but I moved him in his own room at 6w cause he was sleeping so well at night

    Ok thanks ladies! :) I know it depends, but is there an average weight and age?
  • Besides the weight limit they can be in it until they can get out of it or fall out. Same as a crib. (obviously you want to take them out before they get to the point of climbing/falling out) I had a shallow one that my son grew out of once he started to roll over and another that he was ok until he pulled himself up. There really isn't an age. More about weight and how quickly they learn :)
  • @babynumber02 Thanks hun, that's helpful! :)
  • Graco makes a great bassinet thats like a mini play yard. I used one w our last and it awesome.
  • I love Graco! They make great everything, lol. There's one I've been looking at that by Fisher Price and it rocks the baby to sleep. I just want it because of that one little thing though and it's really cute.
  • My bassinets instructions said up to 30 lbs. Or 4 months or until they can sit up on their own... whichever came first. Personally though I think they should be fine until they meet the weight requirement and can sit up. I don't think the age matters if those two factors are still not met.
  • Hmm well it works for me. I'm going to go ahead and purchase it. Hell, Fisher Price knows...lol.
