Out Growing Arms Reach Co-sleeper, What Now?

Our daughter is now 6 months and has been sleeping in an Arms Reach co-sleeper since birth and has always started out the night there except the first few weeks. She currently goes to bed in the co-sleeper at 7pm and is out relatively quickly unless she is having a bad teeth night or got over tired due to missing a nap during the day. I recently figured out how to nurse in bed on my side (about time!) and she wakes at about 4am to nurse and I have been bringing her into bed and feeding her and then she sleeps the rest of the night in bed...

What's the Best Product for Co-sleeping?

Hi moms. I am starting my registry and am already flummoxed. We want to do family bed / co-sleeping (at least for first 4 to 6 months or so). Should I buy the Arm's Reach Original Co-Sleeper or the Close and Secure Sleeper or do I need both? If I buy the Close and Secure Sleeper, is it safe / comfy to sometimes place it on the nightstand between our bed and the wall? Any thoughts on this and/or "the Nursing Nest" would be SO appreciated! My head is swimming!

Need Help with Playards...

My first question is: does anyone know up to what age before an infant/baby can start sleeping in a bed and you can use a playard for them to sleep in up until then? The reason why I'm asking is: I want to get my Mom either a Playard (Ex. Graco pack n' play) or an Arms Reach Co-Sleeper for her to use when I go to visit her or when she babysits for my baby to sleep in until at least he/she can sleep in a bed, which I believe is around 1 1/2 to 2 years old depending on the child obviously. My Mom only has a small apartment and can't...

Toddler Bedtime Has Become a NIGHTMARE!

I am beside myself and dont even know where to begin...though I will say first off that sleep (or going to sleep) has never been my daughter's strong point. Still, I have yet to experience this craziness with her and she is now two! I really need some help/advice/been there words of encouragement because I am about to lose my mind. Our usual bedtime routine of bath, jammies, books, sing songs to her and rock her and then put her down to sleep in her bed has become all of the above, punctuated with non-stop chatter (it is cute, but it...

Infant Bed for Travel

My husband and I are planning some weekend trips this summer with our almost 6-month old baby. We've never had him sleep in our bed for fear of SIDS and crushing him. He co-slept in a bedside bassinet (Arms Reach co-sleeper) for 2 months, then he transitioned well into his own crib. We're scared that he won't sleep in the hotel crib if we rent one and we don't want to bring a pack n' play, which I believe is very uncomfortable for him now. The co-sleeper is too small for him too. We are considering having him sleep in our bed but we haven't...

Where Did Your Newborn Sleep?

I'm feeling very torn. I definitely plan on having my baby (due Oct) in my room for at least a few months, and definitely not in my bed (nothing against cosleeping, just not for me). With my first daughter we used a pack n' play in our room. She never slept well in it, I think those mattresses are really uncomfortable. After a few months I made my husband dismantle and move her crib into our room, where she slept until she was six months and then we moved the crib (and her) back to her room. So, for this baby I was thinking about...
