    Ooooh quick question while i'm here.

    Has anybody had/seen one of the Graco petite Bassinet travel cots??? I am undecided whether to get one of these of the ordinary sized one, which also has the bassinet in and a removable changer on top.

    There isn't much difference in price, it is more the size i'm concerned about. I am not getting a moses basket, am getting this instead, so it will be up most of the time and useful for keeping babs safe as he gets a bit bigger (so he doesn't get knocked over/trampled on by the mad dog). So I am concerned the standard one will be too big and in the way, but the petite one may be useless if he out grows it too soon!!!!

    Hmmmm decisions

    Mel I've got the graco contor electra (normal sized) travel cot with bassinet and changer.
    MIL bought it so hence us having the most expensive one from mothercare :D we used it for about a month when Chris outgrew the crib but it was a bit too early to move in his own room, I'd deffo recommend it even tho its pricey, never used the cot top changer as Chris always weed as soon as his nappy was off! they are a bit small anyway as he now almost touches each end when he sleeps at grandma's but I wouldn't recommend using it instead of a moses basket as the mattress is quite thin and hard.
    Chris loves the vibrating bit on the bassinet and the lulabies it plays too

    edit: heres a link to the one we've got, well ours isn't quite a posh as this as its been updated
    The very best is sometimes what nature gives us for free.
