[quote=Anonymous]We used a bassinet with #1 for about two months. It's convenient because it's right next to the bed, so you don't have to get up and wander the house during the (many) nighttime wakings. Just scoop them up, feed them, and tuck them right back in. Plus, for first time parents, it's reassuring because they're right there and you can hear them if they make a noise. I think when they're very little and still like to be swaddled and be in tight spaces, the bassinet is cozy and comforting for them vs. the wide open crib. But of course, they do eventually get bigger and the bassinet will be too confining if their arms get out and hit the sides, or if they reach up, so you don't use it for very long, but it's quite useful for those first two months. I am pregnant with #2 and planning to do a bassinet at first this time around as well. [/quote]
