    Hi there - I have a random question that I'm hoping someone could answer... I've inherited some baby bedding with the second hand cotbed I've bought. I've given it all a good wash and am hoping there's no reason not to use it (it's not like a mattress is it?).

    Along with the bedding there's a quilted bag/sleeping bag shaped thing - I thought that it can't be a sleeping bag because all the ones I've seen for babies have arm-holes etc, rather than just being a bag. I wondered if it was some kind of nappy stacker bag, but there's nothing to hang it up with. I'm at a bit of a loss! Any ideas?

    ...can you do a photo of it and post it here?! then we can all have a guess lol!

    It's probably a baby nest.. Like a cosy toes but with no strap holes... I had one for putting in the pram when I had it set in carrycot mode... Not safe for overnight sleeping though I believe...

    And for WIW... I bought a cot off eBay and it was immaculate... I'm using a second hand mattress for my baby... I'm shocking :p

    ok here goes...5ophoto2ttj

    It has a drawstring about 2/3 of the way up, which makes me think it might be some kind of bag...

    Ooh, that looks more like a laundry bag kind of thing than something to put the baby in...

    Yeah does doesn't it? Just seemed a bit odd to have a laundry bag so quilted and matching all the bedding...

    I had one that matched the crib bedding I was given but it wasn't quilted... I didn't use it either, just shoved her things in with our washing...

    Maybe put soft toys and things in it?
