Bassinet

I used a rock n play with my first for the first 3 months - which I liked, but I then had a lot of difficulty transitioning him to his crib. I'm not really sure if it was just HIM or maybe it was because he was so used to being snug and on an incline in the R&P that the crib was too flat and open...

So now for my 2nd - I think I want to try a bassinet instead so he's used to sleeping flat on day 1. I want something that can be close to the bed for easy access for breast feeding and something fairly cheap.

I dont want to spend 250 on a Halo Bassinet that he will only use for a few months.

I was looking at the Arms reach Bassinet - anyone use this? thoughts?

I bought the arms reach co sleeper and DD doesn't like it because she's already used to the Rock n Play but I love the concept.


ETA: I'm willing to sell mine if you want. DD never actually slept in it so practically brand new. $75 so pretty much half of what it cost.

Loved my arms reach also. I had the clearvue model. Not the fanciest but it has some practical features like lots of storage, adjustable height (most models require separate risers) abs breathable mesh sides.
