Why? |
| I have a Lotus crib and it has been good, but my kid got too big for it around 24 months, maybe a litter earlier. So I don't know if it's going to be worth the purchase for just a few months. |
I followed your thread because I thought it was helpful and was also interested in your question - I never said I was OP and am just trying to find one because it’s been saved in my Amazon wishlist but can’t justify the cost yet because we can’t afford it.. Idk how I was a jerk, thought you had a valid question/thread. So if it matters to the PP, I’m not OP, I have a four month old and would like to get the item. If someone else is interested I’m sure they can include their email too. |
And to add for need, we’re traveling in 2 weeks to see family, have no budget for a travel crib or pack and play, and was planning to cosleep (hence the looking at these threads to see if we could swing it). But sure, I’m the jerk. |
NP. It is just kind of jerky because PP was offering to OP and in this situation it does feel like OP should get first dibs. I don't think you intended to be a jerk, but it was a little swoopy. |

Per manufacturer. I assume that they can flip it when then lean against it. |
You are a jerk. Np here. If you weren’t trying to be one you would say something like -“ I’m not OP but I am interested in getting your item if OP doesn’t want it” since she should get first choice. |
| We have a kidco peapod and love it. |

Lotus is great because it lays flat on the floor (as opposed to raised on feet) so it has no weight limit, and is longer than other pnp's (I just checked specs - 42"). Therefore, it can be used much longer than other pnp's. We used it until our dd was almost 3 years old, and she was about the size of a 5 year old at that point (we gave it up when she was probably 40"). Now we are using for #2.
The biggest downside - the fitted sheet is a pia!!! |
I've used this site for a while and everytime the OP says I'm OP or OP here (and I do the same when I'm the OP) so not sure how that is interpreted to be the OP but whatever. And I also used this site long enough to see the true jerks and sanctimommies aka you. I didn't get an email so assuming PP wants to post somewhere to sell or not following this thread or not wanting to sell to me. My search continues because it looks people like it and it's worth the investment if at a cheap price. Go back to policing other threads, sanctimommy. |
Yes, the regular fitted sheet sucks. NEVER put it in the dryer. The quilted sheet is much better. We’ve exclusively used that since about 3 months old. (It’s plush but fits tight enough that I had no SIDS concerns.) |
| If it lays on the floor with no legs, is it dangerous for a baby sleeping face down on tummy? I mean like a six or seven month old? |
I’m not following your line of reasoning for why there would be potential danger. What does the crib having legs have to do with how your baby sleeps inside it? |
| We had the Lotus crib, but my baby absolutely refused to sleep in it. Especially since you already have a young toddler, I would recommend cosleeping for travel. When he/she is just a bit older, you can also make a floor on the nest with pillows (my son thinks this is a treat!). In short, my advice would be to skip spending the $200 on an extra thing to haul around. |
Since OP doesn't need it, I'm happy to pass it along - I've sent you an email! |
