[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I lived in 2 bedroom 1000 square feet in DC for first 2 years of DD life. I had a crib, bassinet and pack and play at first. It’s nice to have one thing like that in each room so you don’t have to move them around but completely unnecessary. I was done with bassinets by 2 months and wanted it out of the house. That’s the trick in small spaces. Get it cheap/borrow and then be able to get it out of your space. You def don’t want to be keeping and storing that stuff. I bought pac and plays for each grandma which was convenient for visiting them. [/quote]

PP Reading the other responses, I’ll clarify. We have a dog, so I couldn’t put baby on the floor. Also I didn’t want to put baby in swings, bouncers, RnP, etc bc I think it’s better for sleep habits if babies get used to sleeping flat and get used to their crib. I wanted the crib from day 1 so we could practice baby being in it pretty early. While DD was still in the bassinet at night in our room, we did one nap a day in the crib so we all could gradually get used to it, esp DD. (DD STTN from 2 months although there were obviously many other factors.) [/quote]
